Arduino/c++ using SoftwareSerial class in another class


I'm trying to build some class, it's been a very long time since i've been making OOP, and mostly i've forgot everything ;)

I'm trying to build class inside of wich i read from SoftwareSerial, and make something with that later.

I've made this code:

    #include <SoftwareSerial.h>

void setup() {
  // put your setup code here, to run once:

}

void loop() {
  // put your main code here, to run repeatedly:

}

class pH
{
  int Stable;
  unsigned long previousMillis;
  long Gap;
  //SoftwareSerial pHrs(100,100);
  //SoftwareSerial portOne(100, 100);
  //SoftwareSerial pHrs = new SoftwareSerial(90,90);
  SoftwareSerial SerialPort;

  // Constructor - creates a pH
  // and initializes the member variables and state
  public: pH(uint8_t tx, uint8_t rx, long pHgap)
  {
    Gap = pHgap;
    //SerialPort(rx, tx);
  }

};

But get this:

    /home/san/Projekty/pHmetr/rs8/rs8.ino: In constructor 'pH::pH(uint8_t, uint8_t, long int)':
rs8:26: error: no matching function for call to 'SoftwareSerial::SoftwareSerial()'

I've tried to find solution myself, but somehow i'm getting lost...

Best Regadrs!


Solution

  • class pH
    {
      int Stable;
      unsigned long previousMillis;
      long Gap;
      //SoftwareSerial pHrs(100,100);
      //SoftwareSerial portOne(100, 100);
      //SoftwareSerial pHrs = new SoftwareSerial(90,90);
      SoftwareSerial SerialPort;
    
      // Constructor - creates a pH
      // and initializes the member variables and state
      public: 
        pH(uint8_t tx, uint8_t rx, long pHgap)
          : SoftwareSerial(/* You should initalize your base class */) // <---
        {
          Gap = pHgap;
          //SerialPort(rx, tx);
        }
    };
    

    You should initialize your base class in your constructor.
