Inaccessible item using C++ inheritance
- by shinjuo
I am working on C++ project that uses inheritance. I seem to have an error in visual studio in the below file administrator.h. It says that salariedemploye:salary on line 17 is inaccessible and I am not sure why.
Admin.cpp
#include

}

:SalariedEmployee(theName, theSsn),salary(theAnnualSalary)
{
//deliberately empty
}
void Administrator::inputAdminData()
{
cout << " Enter the details of the administrator " << getName() << endl;
cout << " Enter the admin title" << endl;
getline(cin, adminTitle);
cout << " Enter the area of responsibility " << endl;
getline(cin, workingArea);
