I am unable to understand how a move constructor works in this example of code. If someone could break down the process of what is taking place and explain to me on why to use a move constructor.
Code: class MyString { MyString(MyString&& MoveSource) { if( MoveSource.Buffer != NULL ) { Buffer = MoveSource.Buffer; // take ownership i.e. 'move' MoveSource.Buffer = NULL; // set the move source to NULL i.e. free it } } };
Example from "SamsTeachYourself: C++ in One Hour a Day"
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?
#include "IMyIntData.h" class MyIntData : public CPMUnknown<IMyIntData> {
I need to know what this syntax means (including MyIntData in angular brackets after parent class name) where IMyIntData is the Interface from where MyIntData is derived.
Write a class definition for a Fraction class. Its member fields are num and den, both of type int. The constructor builds the default fraction 1/1. It has the following operations:
void plusEquals(Fraction second); //Adds the second fraction to this fraction like the operator += void minusEquals (Fraction second); //Subtracts the second fraction from this fraction void timesEquals (Fraction second); //Divides this fraction by the second fraction void dividesEquals (Fraction second); // Divides this fraction by the second fraction void reduce(); // Reduces this fraction to lowest terms double todecimal(); //returns the decimal value of this fraction void scan(istream&); //scans a fraction written with a slash as in ¾ void print(ostream&); //prints a fraction using a slash Fraction(); //constructs a default fraction with denominator 1, numerator 0 Fraction(int n, int d); //constructs a fraction given value for num and den
2. Write a menu-driven driver program designed to allow thorough testing of your Fraction class.
I found way around this, but I would like to know why it shows multiple declarations.
My solution is to declare this class in function body(void LoadLevel()), just before the throw statement. But why can't I define it inside my namespace, but outside function?

I have added my classes here, lso I have added the sln to this post.
using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.ComponentModel;
#include "stdafx.h" #include <iostream> #include <math.h> using namespace std; class Calc {
[Code] ....
when i built it, it showed the following errors:
1>------ Build started: Project: rough, Configuration: Debug Win32 ------ 1> rough.cpp 1>e:c programs ough ough ough.cpp(17): error C3872: '0xa0': this character is not allowed in an identifier 1>e:c programs
"You cannot initialize the static data member in the class definition — that’s simply a blueprint for an object and initializing values for members are not allowed. You don’t want to initialize it in a constructor, because you want to increment it every time the constructor is called so the count of the number of objects created is accumulated."
Why don't you want to initialize it in a constructor?
Edit: Because every time it is called it will set it back to 0 or whatever the initializing value.
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 .
Full disclosure: this is an exercise from "Sams Teach Yourself C++ in 24 Hours" by Jesse Liberty and Rogers Candenhead. This refers to Chapter 9 (Hour 9 Activity 1)
I created a class called Point, in Point.h
I created a class called Rectangle in Rectangle.h and Rectangle.cpp
If I create an int main() function in Rectangle.cpp (that includes Rectangle.h), I can compile Rectangle.cpp and run the resulting program. Fine.
Question:
I create a separate file called main.cpp. I include Rectangle.h. But now the compiler complains.
Code: $ g++ main.cpp -o main /tmp/cc38JIph.o: In function `main': main.cpp:(.text+0x26): undefined reference to `Rectangle::Rectangle(int, int, int, int)' main.cpp:(.text+0x32): undefined reference to `Rectangle::getArea() const' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status If I can create a class in Point.h and use it in Rectangle.h, why can I not just use Rectangle in main.cpp?
And the files, of course:
file: main.cpp Code: #include <iostream> #include "Rectangle.h" using std::cout; using std::endl;
# include <iostream> # include <cstring> #include <iomanip> #include <cmath> using namespace std; class Course // Creating the class Course
[Code] ....
Errors: Warning1warning C4996: 'strncpy': This function or variable may be unsafe. Consider using strncpy_s instead. To disable deprecation, use _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS.
[Code] .....
I have to create an Array of type Course and then fill its member dats using various member functions. Those errors are caused by some Constructor defect, which I dont really know what it is.
It looks useful to implement strategy pattern because it makes a fully separate code block. So I can add a function to the map simply by compiling a source file. It's very simple. I don't need to edit another file.
But when I use it for my existing project, It makes some linking and runtime errors.(vs 2012). I can't recognize exactly why because it is a huge project. Anyway, I have a question that - Is this a safe use of class constructor?
I know that there is no fixed order of running, but in this case I think it doesn't matter. because they are independent. But it is not a common pattern, so I can't decide to use it.
I am making a simple arkanoid game. When the ball hits the block, i want the block to disappear. How would i go around this? i am working in visual studio. I got the collision and everything working.. Here is my code;
int main(int argc, char** argv){
//initialisation SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_EVERYTHING); SDL_WM_SetCaption("Graphics Window",NULL); //set name of project
