I am writing an app in c++ and I have a class which I need to be able to access in two cpp files but I dont know how to do this. How would I go about to get two cpp files to use this one class? Thanks in advance

err, im probably wrong, but try making something like

blah.h

and sticking the class in the header

and having

#include "./blah.h"
/*not sure about how to do it, haveint played with c++ in months*/

a small note about the #include directive:

#include <filename> will include the given file name from the global includepath first and #include "filename" will include the given file name from the current path first. So the ./ is not neccesary if you use quotes.
If you can't learn to do something well, learn to enjoy doing it poorly.
