NetBeans not recognizing C++ class members at build+run - c++

Question

I am still fairly new to NetBeans, and am writing code for class in C++. I am currently on my third project, and I have run into an error I can't seem to resolve when trying to compile+run my project. I have quadruple-checked my code, going so far as to copy code from a previous project. I have tried quiting, rebooting the computer, and starting NetBeans up again. I ran CppCheck on my code and it found no errors.
The error message:
build/Debug/MinGW-Windows/main.o: In function `main':
C:/Users/Martin/Documents/NetBeansProjects/Lab3/main.cpp:52: undefined reference to `Dictionary::Dictionary()'
C:/Users/Martin/Documents/NetBeansProjects/Lab3/main.cpp:52: undefined reference to `Dictionary::~Dictionary()'
I tried copying code from a previous project, and even with the exact same code as a previous project which works, it's still having this problem. Basically, the build is failing to recognize the Dictionary class.
What things can I check that might cause this problem? Any obscure (or even obvious) settings I can check? Should I just start a new project and copy my code over?
Edit: Adding main():
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
#include "Dictionary.h"
using namespace std;
/*
* argv[1] dictionary file
* argv[2] boggle board file
* argv[3] output file
*/
int main(int argc, char** argv) {
if (argc > 3) {
Dictionary dict;
dict.loadDictFile(argv[1]);
} else {
cout << "Not enough arguments. Needed: ./lab3 [dictionary file] "
"[board file] [output file]" << endl;
}
return 0;
}
And Dictionary.h:
#ifndef DICTIONARY_H
#define DICTIONARY_H
#include <string>
#include <set>
using namespace std;
class Dictionary {
public:
Dictionary();
Dictionary(const Dictionary& orig);
virtual ~Dictionary();
virtual void loadDictFile(char * fileName);
virtual bool find(string word);
private:
set<string> dict;
set<string> fullDictionary; // Contains all words, not just those 4+ char long.
};
#endif /* DICTIONARY_H */
And Dictionary.cpp:
#include "Dictionary.h"
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#include <set>
//using namespace std;
Dictionary::Dictionary() {
}
Dictionary::Dictionary(const Dictionary& orig) {
dict = orig.dict;
fullDictionary = orig.fullDictionary;
}
Dictionary::~Dictionary() {
}
void Dictionary::loadDictFile(char* fileName) {
ifstream infile;
infile.open(fileName);
if (infile) {
while(!infile.eof()) {
string line;
getline(infile, line);
fullDictionary.insert(line);
if (line.size() > 3) {
dict.insert(line);
}
}
} else {
cout << "Dictionary File not loaded: " << fileName << endl;
}
}
bool Dictionary::find(string word){
if (dict.find(word) != dict.end()) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}

Found my problem. Netbeans didn't consider the Dictionary class to be part of my project, so it wasn't compiling Dictionary.cpp. I added it in the Project window by right-clicking the Source Files folder and using Add existing item... menu option. Now it compiles fine.
Does anyone know why the class wouldn't be added if I used Netbean's New File interface and added to the project specifically?
