How to use derived TSelector class?

ROOT

I wrote a class derived from a derived TSelector class. I encountered the following error while using it. I don’t know what is the point to solve such a problem.

Hi,

My guess is that you forget to implement g1238in847::Notify.

Cheers,
Philippe.

But it’s parent class has already implemented the Notify(). :frowning:

I will try and see.

If the parent’s class implementation of Notify is all you need, you ought to remove the declaration of Notify in the derived class (g1238in847) [ I.e. you have something like: class g1238in847 : public baseclass { … int Notify(…); }; which in C++ is a declaration of your intention to implement g1238in847::Notify ]

Cheers,
Philippe.
