Array of Class Objects Errors.

RelentlessChaos (29)
I'm getting some errors in my code for an array of class object, but I'm not sure why. Everything works with 5 elements, but when I try to add more I get up to 20 errors. It seems to be hinting to something being wrong with my for loop counter.

Example.

This works!

	const int NUM_GAMES = 5; 

	Game Inventory[NUM_GAMES] =
	{
	    Game("Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain", 59.99, "Kojima Productions", "Konami"),
	    Game("Bloodborne", 59.99, "From Software", "SCE"),
	    Game("The Last of Us", 49.99, "Naughty Dog", "SCE"),
	    Game("Infamous: Second Son", 39.99, "SCE", "SCE"), 
	    Game("Driveclub", 29.99, "Evolution Studios", "SCE")
		
	};
	
for (int i = 0; i < NUM_GAMES; i++) // LOOP COUNTER.
 {
   cout << setw(40) << left << Inventory[i].getDescription() << "$" << setw(10) << left 
    << Inventory[i].getCost() << setw(10) << left << Inventory[i].getDeveloper() << setw(5) 
      << left << Inventory[i].getPublisher() << "\n";
  }
	return 0;
}


But this does not!

const int NUM_GAMES = 9; 

Game Inventory[NUM_GAMES] =
	{
	  Game("Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain", 59.99, "Kojima Productions", "Konami"),
	  Game("Bloodborne", 59.99, "From Software", "SCE"),
          Game("The Last of Us", 49.99, "Naughty Dog", "SCE"),
	  Game("Infamous: Second Son", 39.99, "SCE", "SCE"), 
	  Game("Driveclub", 29.99, "Evolution Studios", "SCE")
	  Game("Grand Theft Auto", 59.99, "Rockstar Games", "Rockstar North")
		
	};
	
for (int i = 0; i < NUM_GAMES; i++) // LOOP COUNTER.
	{
	cout << setw(40) << left << Inventory[i].getDescription() << "$" << setw(10) << left
              << Inventory[i].getCost() << setw(10) << left << Inventory[i].getDeveloper() 
               << setw(5) << left << Inventory[i].getPublisher() << "\n";
	}

	return 0;
}


What I did was change const int NUM_GAMES = //to 9. And then tried to add more to my list below
(See "Grand Theft Auto" line).

Here's my class / constructors if there is anything wrong with them. I'm not sure!

	// CONSTRUCTOR #3.
	Game(string Info, double Price, string Pub, string Dev)
	{
		Description = Info; 
		Developer = Dev;
		Publisher = Pub;
		Cost = Price; 
	}

Any ideas as to what is wrong?
Thank you! This website is awesome!

You're missing a comma in between your Game() functions.

Nevermind, you were right! That's just embarrassing lmao. Don't you just hate when it's that one semicolon or comma? Usually I wait before posting issues, but for some reason I was assuming it was a different error due to my new found experience with classes etc.

Can you post or link to your full code or post your error messages?

If you are using C++11 (which you should), have a habit of placing comma after each array element:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
 
int foo[] {
    1,
    2,
    3,
    4,
    5, //Comma here is ignored by compiler, but helps if you want to add other element
       //or reorder them
};

I use Microsoft Visual C++ 2010. At least that's what we use for my community college.
