Thanks for your reply . But why it is not allowed. What made me to think is , the memory for function will be allocated in code segment and the memory for class is in stack (I think so , please correct me if I am wrong). and moreover , if we want to declare a variable to a function , we can do with function prototype like
typedef void (*fun)();
fun x;
But here we are not doing ;like that . So obviously , the available data type for compiler is class itself and I can create an object. Please correct my concept if I am worng.

You'll be wanting to quote from the Standard then.ISO/IEC14882:1998
13 Overloading
When two or more different declarations are specified for a single name in the same scope, that name is said to be overloaded. Bu extension, two declarations in the same scope that declare the same name but with different types are called overloaded declarations. Only function declarations can be overloaded; object and type declarations cannot be overloaded.
In other words, it's not allowed. (Hope I've got the right part of the standard here...)Paul Herring <pauljherring@gmail.com > wrote:![]()

Hi All,
I have a class with name x and also a function ( independent of class) with same name. In main function I tried to declare an object for my class ( I thought we cann't assaign variable for a function with out declaring a prototype with typedef for a needed syntax). But I am getting error. Could any one of you explain what is the priority for memory allocation .
#include "stdafx.h"
void x()
{
cout<<"Hai";
};
class x
{
public:
x()
{
}
};
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
x t;
class x t;return 0;
}
Why have you got a global function with the same name as a global class in the first place??
