Hows it going people? I'm hanging up my PHP Enviroment for a while and having another play with C++ and Allegro. Ran into some problems tho.

I'm having an OOP problem. I'm using Dev-C++ and trying to initialize allegro in a very basic. BUT, this question doesn't require an allegro knowledge. I have 3 files (main.cpp, Device.h, Device.cpp). Now so far I have created the project, wrote the main.cpp code, then added the other two files and wrote their code. Here is the error I'm getting:

QUOTE

Line 10: 'gfxDevice' is not a known namespace or class

And here is my code:
main.cpp:

CODE

#include <allegro.h>
#include "Device.h"

using namespace std;

Device gfxDevice;

int main() {

gfxDevice::initialize(1024, 800);

while (!key[KEY_ESC]) {
/* put your code here */
}

gfxDevice::deinitialize();

return 0;

}
END_OF_MAIN()

Device.h:

CODE

//Device.h

#ifndef DEVICE_H
#define DEVICE_H

#include <allegro.h>

class Device {

public:
Device();
~Device();

// These two functions intialize Allegro
void initialize(int res_x, int res_y);
void deinitialize();

private:

int depth();
int res();

};

#endif

Device.cpp:

CODE

//Device.cpp
#include "Device.h"

Device::Device() {

}

Device::~Device() {

}

void Device::initialize(int res_x, int res_y) {

allegro_init();

Device::depth();

Device::res(res_x, res_y);

install_timer();
install_keyboard();
install_mouse();

}

void Device::deinitialize() {

clear_keybuf();

}

int Device::depth() {

depth = desktop_color_depth();

if (depth == 0) {

depth = 32;

}

set_color_depth(depth);

return 1;

}

int Device::res(int res_x, int res_y) {

res = set_gfx_mode(GFX_AUTODETECT_WINDOWED, res_x, res_y, 0, 0);

if (res != 0) {

allegro_message(allegro_error);

exit(-1);

}

}

What am I missing? Did I not do something right? or is it my code?
