When the below is done, does it call the constroctor only, and if yes, constructors do not have return types so how does it work? is there anything behind the scene?
wxAddHandler(new wxPNG_HANDLER);
and
sf::RenderWindow(sf::VideoMode(...),...);
This exercise is from C++ primer 5th edition. I have not understood everything about constructors, mainly about how they function.
Work prior to the exercise was creating a class called screen with some specifications. This is the class:
Code:
class screen{
public:
using pos = string::size_type;
screen() = default;
private:
pos height = 0;
pos width = 0;
pos cursor = 0;
string contents;
};
The exercise goes as follows:
Exercise 7.24: Give your Screen class three constructors: a defaultconstructor; a constructor that takes values for height and width and initializes the contents to hold the given number of blanks; and a constructor that takes values for height, width, and a character to use as the contents of the screen.
Giving the screen a default constructor was easy. The next part is probably easy aswell, I just dont understand what they mean when they say "and initalize the contents to hold the given number of blanks" and something in the 3rd part when they say "character to use as the contents of the screen".
Think I have made a breakthrough... Would the constructor for the second part look like this:
screen(pos ht, pos wd) : contents(ht*wd) {}
or something?
OgreWidget.h
Code:
#ifndef __OGREWIDGET_H__
#define __OGREWIDGET_H__
#include <OGRE/Ogre.h>
#include <QGLWidget>
//#include <QX11Info>
class OgreWidget : public QGLWidget {
//Q_OBJECT;

The inherited method called createScene is not called.
I have a question similar to the one here: [URL] .....
The main difference is I would like to pass a method of derived class as a parameter to some other method in its template base class.
template <typename BaseType>
class Base {
public:
typedef void (Base::*Callback)(int A);
[Code] .....
The above is an example which does not compile. My compiler complains that the two BaseMethod() calls in DerivedMethod() are invalid uses of non-static member function.
Is this not possible to do, or is my syntax simply wrong? All I want is to be able to pass as an an argument to a method in the base class from the derived class some callback as a variable for the base class to invoke later.
I want to write how many times a method is called. The first class houses a method that I want to count from the second class how many times it is called. what I am able to achieve so far is that it only writes out how many times it is called but what I want is that it should be like a counter like this: if called ofr 5 times it should print:
1
2
3
4
5
and not just 5.
First class
public static int count = 0;
public void Login(String LoginUsername, String LoginPassword) {
count++;
}
Second class
int i = LoginReusables.count;
i++;
System.IO.File.WriteAllText(@"C:Usersken4wardDesktopTidyWriteLines.txt", i.ToString());
The following are the cases when copy constructor is called.
1)When instantiating one object and initializing it with values from another object.
2)When passing an object by value.
3)When an object is returned from a function by value.
I don't understand #2 How can and object be passed by value? when I think of passing object I think of passing by address or reference. explain
I don't understand #3 how can a function returned object by value I think of again passing by address or reference.
I was wondering that why in the below code, the copy constructor is called 2 times.
Code:
class A {
private:
static int count;
int age;
public:
A()
[code].....
I think that when f(a) is called, since I am passing this as value, no copy constructor should be called. The copy constructor should called when the return object "x" is assigned to:
A b = x;
why copy constructor called 2 times?
I can't get my 'Front End' view model's constructor to be called. If i remove my dependency from the mvvm-light framework and use MSDN mvvm paterns then the constructor is called. What am i doing wrong. It seem like there is a data context binding issue between my XMAL and my view model backing.
ViewModelLocator.cs
using GalaSoft.MvvmLight.Ioc;
using Microsoft.Practices.ServiceLocation;
using Point_Of_Sale.Model;
using System.Collections.Generic;
namespace Point_Of_Sale.ViewModel {
public class ViewModelLocator

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
class Cents {
public:
int m_nCents;
Cents(int nCents=0):m_nCents(nCents){
cout<<"Calling normal constructor with value:"; m_nCents = nCents;
cout<<m_nCents<<endl;
[code].....
Question is :Why is the overloaded copy constructor that I have written not getting called here?Internally default copy constructor is getting called.Thats why we get value of obj2.m_nCents as 37.
I have the following classes and 'dreaded diamond':
A
/
/
B C
/
/
D
|

E
Classes B & C both inherit from A using public virtual A.
E is the only concrete class. None of the classes are totally abstract.
Every class has a copy constructor.
All of the copy constructors are chained together through the initialization lists.
E correctly calls D's copy constructor.
D correctly calls B and C's copy constructors.
But neither B nor C call A's copy constructor, although A's default constructor is called. To reiterate B and C have a call to A's copy constructor in their initialization lists.
I guess A's default constructor is being called is because of virtual inheritence, but why isn't its copy constructor called (too)?
A's copy constructor includes some very important code and I could do with calling it. Should I call it from the concrete class' initialization list or is that considered bad form?
#include <vector>
#include <iostream>
#include <iterator>
[Code]....
I am confused for first call to push_back copy constructor is called for second call I am expecting it to move class instance to new memory location there by trigering move and then inserting second class instance expected call:
Copy constructor
Move constructor
Copy constructor
but its calling
Copy constructor
Copy constructor
Move constructor
I need to create a method (constructor) to initialize a bigint to an int value you provide [0, maxint].
Example: bigint(128).
Here is my class:
#ifndef BIGINT_H
#define BIGINT_H
const int MAXINT = 500;
class bigint{
public:
bigint();
[Code] ....
So if the user inputs (4123 for example). How would I make 4 in size[0], 1 in size [1], 2 in size [2], etc. I don't even know where to start. Im guessing I would start with a for loop. It has to be an integer. I cant use a string yet.
Is this example correct? This example from a book
Constructor of the Base Class
Person::Person(char* n="", char* nat="U.S.A", int s=1)
{
name = n;
nationality = nat;
sex = s;
}
Constructor of the Derived Class (inherited from the base class)
Student(char* n, int s=0, char* i=""):
Person(n, s)
Why the initialized list of the base class constructor doesn't match the initialized list of the derived class constructor? I know this book is a little bit old, I'm not sure if this wrong in VC++ 2010?
I would like to avoid throwing things in constructors as much as possible.
Is this good design to have a static class method that checks arguments the caller will give to the constructor. The documentation of the class will say, thou shall call this method to validate thine arguments before calling the constructor, or else segfault may befall thoust.
to initialize this object? Why C++ FAQ says no? Here is my code,
Code:
class A
{
public:
A(int x, char c);
A(int x);
[code] ....
I don't have any trouble to call the constructor A(int x, char c) from another constructor A(int x).
I would like to know if there's a way to make a method from a derived class a friend of its base class. Something like:
class Derived;
class Base {
int i, j;
friend void Derived::f();
protected:
Base();
[Code] ......
Here are the classes:
BaseClass.h
Code:
class BaseClass {
public:
BaseClass();
virtual ~BaseClass();
virtual void printStuff() const;
[Code] ....
When I call printStuff, the DerivedClass's function gets called. Now, if I remove the const part from the DerivedClass's printStuff function, we call the BaseClass's printStuff function.
Is there any way to track what functions from what class are called at runtime? What I mean is a list of functions or classes which have been called at runtime.
View 1 Replies View RelatedDefine a class for a type called CounterType. An object of this type is used to count things, so it records a count that is a non-negative whole number.
Include a mutator function that sets the counter to a count given as an argument. Include member functions to increase the count by one and to decrease the count by one.
Be sure that no member function allows the value of the counter to become negative.
Also, include a member function that returns the current count value and one that outputs the count. Embed your class definition in a test program and run sufficient tests to verify it all works correctly.
Let's say I have a Car object , and it contains inner Engine object.
Code:
struct Car{
Engine mEngine;
};
In order to initialize the engine object NOT by the default constructor (if it has any) , we use initialization semantics:
Code:
Car::Car:
mEngin(arg1,arg2,...)
{
other stuff here
}
Now it gets tricky: Let's say a Car objects has 10 inner objects, each object has about 5 variables in it . Car is a base class for , e.g. , Toyota class. you don't want the Car class to have a constructor with 50 arguments. Can the inner objects of Car be initialized from the base class , e.g. Toyota?
Code:
class Toyota:
Car(...),
mEngine(...),
mGear(..)
{
...
};
The other options are:
1) like said , create a Car constructor which gets 50 arguments, then initialize Car as whole from Toyota - the code becomes less readable and less intuitive
2) Car constructor which get built-objects as arguments and initialize the inner objects with copy constructor . the code gets more readable but then you create many excess objects .
I am creating a class called time and we've had to do operator overloading for <, > , <=, >=, ==, !=, ++, --, >>, <<, * , +, and -.
Well I have done and error checked them all. The only one I cannot seem to get right is the minus and its because of the error checking. I am having issues with times like this
t1 = 0:0:2:3
t2 = 0:0:1:4
t1 - t2 should equal 0:0:0:59 but it returns 0:0:1:-1.
(days:hours:minutes:seconds)
I need it to check for all cases and I just do not know how. Here is the code I have so far:
time operator- (const time& x, const time& y){
time subtract;
subtract.days = x.days - y.days;
subtract.hrs = x.hrs - y.hrs;
subtract.mins = x.mins - y.mins;
subtract.secs = x.secs - y.secs;

I have a class Square that is composed of two Points, I pass the former to the Square as references (second ctor) and two Points are created.
The problem is, at the end of the program, 4 Points are now being deleted which suggests that somewhere copies were made (regardless of the references) and the m_p1, m_p2 have different addresses than p1 and p2.
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
class Point {
public:
Point();
Point(double x,double y);
double printCor() const;
[Code] .....
Even though, the objects were passed to the ctor by references, the copy constructor (compiler generated) for Point was called and now we have two points and an object square with distinct Point objects.
I understand it is done like this
// Calling the base class constructor
explicit CCandyBox(double lv, double wv, double hv, const char* str="Candy"): CBox(lv, wv, hv)
{
...
}
But how does the compiler know that you are initializing the base "part" of the object?
Or is this the entire reason initialization lists exist, to separate this confusion?
I am trying to use constructor within constructor in the same class. Is that possible. I have tried something and it shows me a error message:

I've created a function where you can choose any bounds for an array based list (positive or negative, as long as the first position is smaller than the last position). However for some reason when I call the print() function in my application program it doesn't do anything. My print function is technically correct (I still have work to do on the output) but I can't figure out why it wont show anything at all. Below is my header, implementation, and main program files, along with results from running the program.
Header File:
//safearrayType Header File
class safeArrayType {
public:
void print() const;
void insertAt(int location, const int& insertItem);
safeArrayType(int firstPlace=0, int maxPlace = 100);
[Code] ....
ResultsEnter the first bound of yourlist: -3(this was my input)
Enter the last bound of yourlist: 7(this was my input)
