Undefined reference Error

Member 8576081 asked:

Open original thread
X is a base class in which 'data' is being set. while executing the code I am getting this error: In function `main':
undefined reference to `X::data;

Can anyone please help me resolve this error.
Any help will be appreciated.



C++
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
struct ICP{ int id; };
struct Q752{ int id; };
class X
{
protected:
enum{ DT =0, Q7};
static void *data;
public:
  X();
  ~X();
  static void *get() { return data; }
   static void set(int type) 
   {
     cout << "X::set()" <<endl;
     
     switch(type)
     {
       case DT:
               {
                 cout << "case: ICP" <<endl;
                 ICP* dt= new ICP;
                  //cout << (int)dt << endl;
                 dt->id = 10; data = dt;
               }
               break;
       case Q7:
               {
                 
                 cout << "case: Q752" <<endl;
                 Q752* dt1 = new Q752;
                 dt1->id = 20;// data = (Q752*)dt1;
               } 
               break;
       default: 
               cout << "Invlaid type";
     }
   }
  static void delX(int type) { if(data)
                        switch(type){
                          case DT:
                              delete (ICP*)data;
                          case Q7:
                              delete (Q752*)data;

                        } 
                     }
