为什么在向类添加新函数后，应用程序编译但在链接阶段失败？

Question

My project is being built using the following: Eclipse , CMakeLists.txt , MinGW 4.8.1

The project compiles and application links normally. But after adding,

3 Functions in 'Helper.cpp' and 2 Functions in 'CamData.cpp' , of the type boost::ublas::matrix

The linker gives up, and can not find the functions anymore (undefined reference Error) though it can compile them ( no error while compiling the object files *.cpp.obj ).

Code Structure

Main.cpp
CMain.cpp
Helper.cpp (Boost::ublas::matrix<double> Fnction1, ...) 
CamData.cpp (Boost::ublas::matrix<double> Funtion4, ...)

The functions in Helper class that were created are as follows. The 2 functions in CamData are also of similar type:

class Helper{
    Helper();
    virtual ~Helper();
template<typename T>
using bMatrix =  boost::numeric::ublas::matrix<T>;

bMatrix<double> getmatrixQ(double w, double x, double y, double z);
bMatrix<double> rotate_x(bMatrix<double> M, double angleinrad);  
bMatrix<double> getTransformationMatrix(bMatrix<double> M, double x, double y, double z);
};

The relevant parts of the cmakelist.txt are as follows:

FIND_PACKAGE (Boost REQUIRED COMPONENTS date_time filesystem system)
INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(${Boost_INCLUDE_DIRS})
LINK_DIRECTORIES(${Boost_LIBRARY_DIRS})

INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/../src)
INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/../src/InputParams)
INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/../src/Utilities)

SET(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${warnings}" 
    CACHE STRING "Flags used by the compiler during all build types" FORCE)
SET(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "-Wall -std=c++11")

ADD_EXECUTABLE(${PROJECT_NAME} ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/../src/main.cpp
                               ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/../src/Utilities/CHelper.cpp
                               ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/../src/InputParams/CCamData.cpp
                               ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/../src/CMain.cpp
                               ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/../src/COutput.cpp
                               ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/../src/CThreads.cpp)

TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES (${PROJECT_NAME}  ${Boost_LIBRARIES})

After commenting out the functions and thier calls in main.cpp the program can be linked again. Any Ideas on what could be causing this?

Answer 1

Well, here's why I recieved the error while linking and not while compiling.

The functions in the cpp files were declared like this:

Type Function_Name (arguments)
{
  // do something
}   

but it should have been like this:

Type Class_name::Function_Name (arguments)
{
  // do something
}   

Hence it could not find them while linking but could compile them individually in the cpp file.
