[SOLVED]Keypad Library Compile Not Finding Correct Constructor

i've started project using keypad library found here.
i have created own class in project using separate .h , .cpp file.  here code files:

keyinput.h

code: [select]

#ifndef _keyinput_h_
#define _keyinput_h_

#include "../libraries/keypad/keypad.h"

class keyinput
{
private:
    //constants
    static const byte rows = 4, cols = 3;

    //variables
    keypad kypd;

public:
    //functions
    keyinput();
};


#endif

keyinput.cpp

code: [select]

#include "keyinput.h"

keyinput::keyinput()
{
    char keys[rows][cols] =
    {
        {'1', '2', '3'},
        {'4', '5', '6'},
        {'7', '8', '9'},
        {'*', '0', '#'}
    };
    byte rowpins[rows] =  {5, 4, 3, 2}; //connect row pinouts of kpd
    byte colpins[cols] = {8, 7, 6}; //connect column pinouts of kpd
    kypd = keypad(makekeymap(keys), rowpins, colpins, rows, cols);
}

for main .ino file empty containing setup , loop functions no code in either function.

my problem described follows compiler:

now thoughts makekeymap macro causing problems when take out macro , cast keys directly same error.  code more or less copy past of multikey example comes library , have no issue compiling example.  have insight on this?

here makekeymap macro reference:

code: [select]

#define makekeymap(x) ((char*)x)

i'm not trying use constructor no arguments compiler thinks am.

hi fatdollar

because have in .h file ...

code: [select]

keypad kypd;

... , in body of .cpp file ...

code: [select]

kypd = keypad(makekeymap(keys), rowpins, colpins, rows, cols);

... compiler treating constructor no arguments.

one way fix change kypd pointer ...

code: [select]

keypad* kypd;

... , use new create instance of keypad in constructor ...

code: [select]

kypd = new keypad(makekeymap(keys), rowpins, colpins, rows, cols);

when add methods use object, use pointer style of referencing them.  for example ...

code: [select]

kypd->begin();

edit added

i'm not sure way have declared rowpins, colpins , keys local variables in constructor.  pass addresses when instance keypad, imagine destroyed when constructor ends , addresses no longer valid.

maybe @ moving them private member variables of keyinput class.
