Hello
You must treat that warning message as your error to be fixed.
If you want your own method Clear you still have to provide an implmentation of
the "base" Clear.
I mean your header file must look as follows:
class TANA : public TObject {
public:
void Clear(Option_t *opt){ TObject::Clear(opt);} // This is to preserve TObject::Clear
void Clear(); // This is a prototype for your own Clear.
};
If what you want is overloading of the very TObject::Clear then the signature
of your method and TObject::Clear must match.
I.e. you need
class TANA : public TObject {
public:
void Clear(Option_t *opt=''): // This is prototype for your own overloading Clear
};
Hope this helps, Valeri
