[Solved] Troubles with TinyXml

Hi,
I installed TinyXml using a PKGBUILD file from the AUR.
I use codeblocks to develop in C++, but when I run the following, I get errors:

#include <tinyxml.h>
#include "task.h"
#include <time.h>

using namespace std;

int main() {
    Task one("Sistemare il pc", false, time(NULL));
    cout << one.getTask();
    return 0;
}

void addTask(const Task &task) {
    TiXmlDocument doc();
    doc.LoadFile("Tasks.xml", TIXML_ENCODING_UTF8);
}

Here are errors I got:

In function 'void addTask(const Task&)'
error: request for member 'LoadFile' in 'doc', which is of non-class type 'TiXmlDocument()'
||=== Build finished: 1 errors, 0 warnings ===|

I am a beginner in C++, I always used C# and ASP.NET and want to try C++ also.
Thank you.

Re: [Solved] Troubles with TinyXml

Usually it's a good idea to give more information than "It gives an error." If you have console output about the error, please post it. Put it in code tags if it's long so it's not too hard to read.

I've never used TinyXML before, so I don't have much of an idea without the error message. Especially if it has an error running and not when you're compiling it.
If it is an error in compiling, make sure that you include iostream, that has cin and cout defined in it if whatever else you're including doesn't define its own.

Re: [Solved] Troubles with TinyXml

Sorry i forgot to write them:

|In function 'void addTask(const Task&)'
error: request for member 'LoadFile' in 'doc', which is of non-class type 'TiXmlDocument()'

I get other erorrs when I specify the file in the constructor:

#include <tinyxml.h>
#include "task.h"
#include <time.h>

using namespace std;

int main() {
    Task one("Sistemare il pc", false, time(NULL));
    cout << one.getTask();
    return 0;
}

void addTask(const Task &task) {
    TiXmlDocument doc("Tasks.xml");
}

Here are the errors:

obj/Debug/main.o||In function `addTask(Task const&)':|
/home/user/Projects/TaskMan/main.cpp|14|undefined reference to `TiXmlDocument::TiXmlDocument(char const*)'|
obj/Debug/main.o||In function `TiXmlString::quit()':|
