How to resolve?

Implement the lacking strategies.

I’ve declared these capabilities within the first.h file:

	void onKeyPressed(cocos2d::EventKeyboard::KeyCode keyCode, cocos2d::Event* occasion);
	void onKeyReleased(cocos2d::EventKeyboard::KeyCode keyCode, cocos2d::Event* occasion);

I’ve applied these capabilities in first.cpp file,

	auto listener = EventListenerKeyboard::create();
	listener->onKeyPressed = [=](cocos2d::EventKeyboard::KeyCode keyCode, Event* occasion) {
		keys[keyCode] = true;
	};
	listener->onKeyReleased = [=](cocos2d::EventKeyboard::KeyCode keyCode, Event* occasion) {
		keys[keyCode] = false;
	};
	_eventDispatcher->addEventListenerWithSceneGraphPriority(listener, this);

It nonetheless exhibits these errors.Why?

You didn’t implement the strategies. What you probably did is use is lambda expressions to create nameless capabilities.

This is a lambda expression:

listener->onKeyPressed = [=](cocos2d::EventKeyboard::KeyCode keyCode, Event* occasion) {
		keys[keyCode] = true;
	};

So, you’ve gotten 2 choices.

Option 1 – Get rid of the declarations within the header file, since you’re not implementing them as class member capabilities.

Option 2 – Don’t use lambda expressions, and implement the capabilities.

Either works.
