在c ++中没有匹配运算符+错误

Question

Here is the Rational class that i've been working on:

rational.h

#include<iostream>

using namespace std;

#ifndef RATIONAL_H
#define RATIONAL_H

class Rational
{
  int numerator,denominator;
  public:
  // the various constructors
  Rational();
  Rational(int);
  Rational(int,int);

  //member functions
  int get_numerator()const{return numerator;}
  int get_denominator()const{return denominator;}

  // overloaded operators
  // relational operators
  bool operator==(const Rational&)const;
  bool operator<(const Rational&)const;
  bool operator<=(const Rational&)const;
  bool operator>(const Rational&)const;
  bool operator>=(const Rational&)const;

  //arithmetic operators
  Rational operator+(const Rational&);
  Rational operator-(const Rational&);
  Rational operator*(const Rational&);
  Rational operator/(const Rational&);

  //output operator
  friend ostream& operator<<(ostream&, const Rational&);
};
#endif //RATIONAL_H

rational.cpp

#include "rational.h"

// implementation ofthe various constructors
Rational::Rational()
  :numerator(0),denominator(1){}

Rational::Rational(int number)
  :numerator(number),denominator(1){}

Rational::Rational(int n,int d)
  :numerator(n),denominator(d)
{
  if(denominator == 0) denominator = 1;
  if(denominator < 0)
  {
    numerator *= -1;
    denominator *= -1;
  }
}

// implementation of overloaded operators
bool Rational::operator==(const Rational& rhs)const
{
  if( numerator * rhs.get_denominator() == denominator * rhs.get_numerator() )
  {
    return true;
  }
  else return false;
}

bool Rational::operator<(const Rational& rhs)const
{
  if( numerator * rhs.get_denominator() < denominator * rhs.get_numerator() )
  {
    return true;
  }
  else return false;
}

bool Rational::operator<=(const Rational& rhs)const
{
  return operator==(rhs) || operator<(rhs);
}

bool Rational::operator>(const Rational& rhs)const
{
  return !operator<(rhs);
}

bool Rational::operator>=(const Rational& rhs)const
{
  return operator==(rhs) || operator>(rhs);
}

//arithmetic operators
Rational Rational::operator+(const Rational& rhs)
{
  return Rational( (numerator * rhs.get_denominator() + denominator*rhs.get_numerator()), (denominator * rhs.get_denominator()) );
}

Rational Rational::operator-(const Rational& rhs)
{
  //reuse of the + operator for substraction
  return operator+(Rational(-1*rhs.get_numerator(),rhs.get_denominator()));
}

Rational Rational::operator*(const Rational& rhs)
{
  return Rational(numerator * rhs.get_numerator(), denominator * rhs.get_denominator());
}

Rational Rational::operator/(const Rational& rhs)
{
  //reuse of the * operator as division is the inverse of multiplication
  return operator*(Rational(rhs.get_denominator(),rhs.get_numerator()));
}

// friend output operator
ostream& operator<<(ostream& os, const Rational& r)
{
   os<<r.get_numerator()<<"/"<<r.get_denominator();
   return os;
}

and the driver for the program driver.cpp
#include "rational.h"

int main()
{
  Rational r1(),r2(3),r3(11,3),tmp;
  cout<<r1+r2<<endl;
  cout<<r2<<endl;
  cout<<r2-r3<<endl;
  cout<<r2*r3<<endl;
  cout<<r1/r3;

  return 0;
}

Here's the error that i get when trying to compile it.

driver.cpp: In function ‘int main()’:

When I comment the lines where I use the operator+ and operator/, then the code works. This baffles me as I have implemented the operator- using operator+ and similarly the operator/ using operator*. So if one of them works, I'd figure that the other would work too. Can someone please explain what I have done wrong here?

Edit I get even more errors when I use the operator==

What do these cryptic messages mean?

Answer 1

r1 isn't an object of type Rational , as you've declared it, it's a function taking no parameters and returning a Rational .

r1() + r2 would be a valid expression, but you probably meant to make r1 a Rational :

Rational r1,r2(3),r3(11,3),tmp;

Note that your operator+ is assymmetric wrt const . I normally recommend making operator+ a free function:

Rational operator+( const Rational&, const Rational& );

If you want it to be a member function it should probably be declared const :

Rational operator+( const Rational& ) const;
