wrapper / helper functions throwing errors

beginners
#1

Hello, I’m trying to streamline some of my code and so decided to use common/repetitive code as
helper/wrapper functions.
However I’m getting multiple definition errors.

for instance I have a wrapper for ofRandomuf inside a Utility.h…

code in Utility.h

  
  
#ifndef __UTILITY_H__  
#define __UTILITY_H__  
  
  
#include "ofMain.h"  
  
  
namespace Utility  
{  
  
	float of_Randomuf(int seed)  
	{  
		ofSeedRandom(seed) ;  
		return ofRandomuf() ;  
	}  
  
	float of_Randomf(int seed)  
	{  
		ofSeedRandom(seed) ;  
		return ofRandomf() ;  
	}  
  
	  
}  
  
#endif

and then I include Utility.h in testApp.h
but I get errors when i try and use this like:

Utility::of_Randomuf( seed ) ;

I’m sure I’m missing something trivial here??

Edit: here’s the error messege:

  
  
/usr/bin/ld: error: obj/x86_64Release/src/testApp.o: multiple definition of 'Utility::of_Randomuf(int)'  
/usr/bin/ld: obj/x86_64Release/src/main.o: previous definition here

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status  
make: *** [bin/helperTest] Error 1

bump :-X

Fixed it.
Had to create a separate implementation file for it.
