This is how I understood it and this is how I have done it in my latest version of my MinuitTest; I've made a new class FcnClass(.C/.h) with only one public member function, 'fcn', and in the header file of MinuitTest I've made the externed declaration of this function; extern void fcn(Int_t &npar, Double_t *gin, Double_t &f, Double_t *par, Int_t iflag); And in the source code of MinuitTest the line minuit->SetFCN(fcn); now does work!!! But then when I try to set an object of the FcnClass to minuit FcnClass* anObjectOfFcnClass; minuit->SetObjectFit(anObjectOfFcnClass); the compiler complains: MinuitTest.C:20: no matching function for call to `TVirtualFitter::SetObjectFit(FcnClass*&)' /home/hansen/ROOT/include/TVirtualFitter.h:87: candidates are: virtual void TVirtualFitter::SetObjectFit(TObject*) Could you tell me how I've missunderstood this email of yours and how I should change in my test code (attached) so that it goes through compilation?
