C++ :: Access Private Member Variable
Apr 3, 2013
I've created a class called Voter with a private member variable ID, also I have a variable in my main function to be ID as well. I'm trying to compare the two ID's but when I do so:
if (ID == V.ID)
I get the error - 'std::string Voter::ID' is private within this context.
I know that because it's private I can't access it, but how do I?

This question is more from a design point-of-view rather than coding it to be a fully functional.
So here it goes:
I have multiple files which each require their own object of same class type (ref. First Class). File contents are read from a file to a unordered_map<std::string, std::vector<std::string>> which is either private or protected member inside First Class. First Class does not need any public functions to add, remove or change the data during runtime, but changes are only being made by checking if the file size has changed during the day, if the size is not equal to the last check, map gets updated.
Now, I have a Second Class which is a data handler class. It has public member functions with arguments that needs to be get from First Class's unordered_map using const_iterator. Which way to go with design and implementation.
I know there's two methods to do this. Re-doing handler class is also not out of the question. These two methods I'm aware of are:
1. Declare these maps to local scope, build few global functions and here we go. (Probably the easiest way.)
2. Create public member functions to a First Class which either return a pointer or a reference to a protected/private member. (I'm under the impression that I really shouldn't be doing this because of a bad coding practice.)
Note that I don't need any code here, just some other point-of-views regarding the subject itself for learning better coding practices.

I have a method:
int filetodb(std::wstring szwf, SQLHANDLESTR *h);
I want to use it, in a thread.
std says, use thread, as:
std::thread second (bar,0); // spawn new thread that calls bar(0)
How can I do this, for my method, that uses more than one, i.e., two, parameters?
My code is:
std::thread thread = std::thread(filetodb, filesP->at(i), h);
compiler says:
Error10error C2248: 'std::thread::thread' : cannot access private member declared in class 'std::thread'c:program files (x86)microsoft visual studio 11.0vcincludexmemory06061ConsoleApplicationa
How, can I do this?

Am trying to write table object into file. Here's the source code
.hpp file
class Table {
private:
int table_no;

I am currently doing the assignment about linked list. Here are some details information about what I am doing.. This program is C++ and should run on Visual Studio 2010. And it contains three file, two datastructure header and one main cpp file.
This program is trying to arrange and show some sports records. The main program which contain the functions such as reading the result text file(each result text file contain several records of athletes), removing a file, arranging the totalresult and printing it out. And the main program is already given and I cannot overwrite it.
But when I finished and try to build the solution and run it, I am not able to run the program and it give me somethings like these...
warning C4172: returning address of local variable or temporary
error C2248: 'Datastructure1::Datastructure1' : cannot access private member declared in class 'Datastructure1'
see declaration of 'Datastructure1::Datastructure1'
see declaration of 'Datastructure1'
This diagnostic occurred in the compiler generated function 'Result::Result(const Result &)'
And I have tried to comment each function part of the header file and see if can run or not. But I still fail to do so. Here are my codes...
#ifndef DATASTRUCTURE1_H
#define DATASTRUCTURE1_H
class Datastructure1 {
Public:
Datastructure1( );
[Code] ....
There are two header files and look quite long. They are all some linked list functions . I have read and learn linked list data structure before I complete this programs. However, when I complete the functions required, the function cannot be compile....

Today, I just received this new fresh error, I was constantly using them, but just come to know it is a private access violation as the last error of my program. Did I use it in the wrong way?

My code is here [URL]
void Player::Display() const
{
cout << "
Player Name: " << GetName() <<
"
Grade: " << GetGrade() << "
G.P.A. " << GetGPA() << endl;
}
The problem occurs in here, I get access violations, is there a way to this while keeping Display const or is this code valid and my problem is somewhere else and not being caught in the debugger? I tried to make the return types const - but that didn't work .....
//Getters need const twice for this to work?
const char* Player::GetName() const {return m_name;}
const int Player::GetGrade() const {return m_grade;}
const double Player::GetGPA() const {return m_gpa;}
[Code].....

I have a this program of storing students in a 2-3-4 tree. I have a template class called hw6_234tree and another class called Student. Now my private member variable (m_root) keeps being reinitialized every time I process a new line. For example the first student I run through my m_root->A = Student A...(m_root is a private variable of type Node* inside of the 2-3-4tree class).The next pass through now my m_root->A == Student B. So essentially my first run through m_root->A = Student A. Then the next run m_root->A = Student B. My question is how can I keep this variable the same and stop it from reinitializing m_root->A to student B.
Here are a few snips of the code:
Function in main:
void ProcessLine(string line, hw6_234tree<Student>& tree)
Function call:
tree.Add(Student(id, name));
Private Variable:
Node* m_root;
A function for a struct named (Node) in the private section of class hw6_234tree that assigns variables in the struct to values:
Node(T* valueForA)
{
A = valueForA;
B = C = NULL;
L = M1 = M2 = R = NULL;
}
The start of my Add function:
bool Add(T& toCopyAndAdd)
{
if (m_root == NULL)
{
m_root = new Node(&toCopyAndAdd);
return true;
}
return false;
}

The question is: Define the class Counter. An instance of this class is used to count things, but the counter should never be less than 0 (non negative number). The member variable should be private. I realize what I'm suppose to be using but can't implement the member functions needed..
int main(){
int value;
cin >> value;
Counter myCounter(value);
for (int i = 1; i <= MAXLOOP; i++) {
myCounter.increment();

So I have an ImageManager class, Board class, and Box class. In Board.h I can declare ImageManager imgr; and in Board's constructor I can use imgr and its functions and such. However, in Box.h when I try and declare ImageManager imgr; I get the error "cannot access member declared in class ImageManager". Both declarations are under private, and exactly the same, but one doesn't work. Also, is there a way to only have one instance of ImageManager?

if we don't provide the acces modifiers for base class and we need to manipulate the private data of base class in derived class. Is there anyway to acces the private data members? Here's a coding example
class A {
private :
int a;
};
class B : public class A {
public :
void displayA() { cout<<a<<endl; }
};
how i can acces the a of base class A in derived class B without acces modifiers.

I was trying some virtual mechanism then This came to my mind
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
class A
{
[Code].....
now My concerns is that though the function f() in B was private it gets called by the pointer of class A as it is a virtual function
so is this a violation of access control?

How does an object access its private data members in copy constructor.
The relevant part of the code: Code: C::C(const C &obj)
{
x = obj.x;
y = obj.y;
}
Normally the object1 called "obj" cannot access its private data members outside. But in this situation it can access. How can it be explained?
Here are the complete code:
Code:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
class C{
public:
C(int,int);
C(const C &);

So I have a class object that contains the private member variable spot and the public member function MoveLock. Within MoveLock, is a member variable called numbers that holds the place where a user is on a "lock knob". Now, what I'm trying to accomplish is that whenever the user turns the "knob" in the wrong direction, the position is updated with that current numbers so that the clicks needed to unlock the first state is also updated. But I get these errors:
Error E2096 C:Users...switchtest.cpp 34: Illegal structure operation in function main()
Error E2294 C:Users...switchtest.cpp 39: Structure required on left side of . or .* in function main()
Ultimately, what I have in main() is a piece of what I'm going to implement in a class member function. I'm also thinking about moving the if else statements out of the for and creating a second one for the else portion.
#include <iostream>
#include <windows.h>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
HANDLE inKeys = GetStdHandle(STD_INPUT_HANDLE);
HANDLE screen = GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE);

I get a problem with the vector as a private class member: When I did't initialize the vector in constructor(which means the size of the vector would be 0), I used a class function to add two elements to the vector and it worked (because I added a "printf" to output the size of the vector and the elements within that function). However, when I used another class function to visit that vector, no element was in and the size became 0.
Then I tried to add two elements to the vector during the construction, and it turned out that these two elements could be stored in the vector while other elements added through class functions could not.
I guess there may be some problems on the scope of the function. But I feel the class member should not be effected by the scope of the class function.

The question says that:
#include<fstream.h>
#include<conio.h>
#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>
[Code].....
But then the 2nd part of the question itself says that "Acno entered by the user". So we need to identify/search for an account with that Account Number. How can we do this without comparing Acno with S.Acno? I know that S.Acno is not accesible as it is a private member but then how to compare Acno without even using a member function(public) that can return the value of Acno?

I just happened to find that a nested private template class can be accessed directly outside the enclosing class using a using alias:
namespace ns {
class __wrapper
{
private:
[Code].....
I was hoping to see a "__wrapper::__tklass is private" error message in the first using statement as well as during the instantiation of ns::tklass, but no error is issued. I tried this on gcc-4.9.2, clang-3.5.0 and visual_studio 2013 express.
why exactly doesn't the compiler flag tklass as an error? Is it allowed by the standard? If so, wouldn't that be a serious access violation?

I'm unable to access private variables belonging to the object class Date, which my overloaded >> operator is a friend of. I can't see anything in my code that would be causing this error. The .h file and the definition of the problematic overloaded operator from the implementation file are below:
#ifndef DATE_H
#define DATE_H
#include <string>
using namespace std;
class Date {
public:
// Initializes a date to the default value of January 1, 1970.
[Code] .....
The error message states that the vars (month, day, year) are declared as private in the header file and then a reference is made to the lines where I attempt to access these in the .cpp file and it reads: "in this context".

Below is a working program. Please note that the vector <int*> pointer is declared as a public member of the class A.
The problem arises when I try to make it a private (instead of public). First, let's look at the File 1 below. It compiles and works fine.
File 1: main.cpp (working fine)
#include <vector>
#include <iostream>

I want to make a destructor counter...So it needs to be outside that specific instance of the class. And i want to keep it hidden. I don't want to be able to access it from outside the class...I Don't want main.cpp to have access to this variable
Is there a way to do this?

I am having trouble compiling my interface. I am trying to store a reference variable as a member variable of the interface object. Compiler says that the variable has not be initiated correctly.
LCD inherits from VisualInterface which is expecting a DisplayDriver object to be passed in (DisplayDriver is another interface, but thats not important).
I pass the displayDriver object in when LCD is instantiated in maininterfaces.zip
I was pasing it before as a pointer but was told that this could cause me problems with memory leaks and a reference was better, but now I cant seem to get it to compile.
