C++ :: Variable Declaration (const Pointer To SensorBase Object)?

Feb 19, 2015

I'm having to do a little c++ (coming from java) and don't understand the syntax of the following declaration

Code:
SensorBase* const sensor(mSensors[i]);

It looks like it's declaring a const pointer to a SensorBase object but I don't understand how that applies to sensor(mSensors[i]) which looks like a function??

C++ :: Store Reference To Const Object In Class As A Member Variable?

May 27, 2014

i want to store reference to a const object in my class as a member variable, as follow:

I basically want a readonly reference to |Data| in Device object.

Code:

class Device {
Device(const QList<QSharedPointer<Data>> & dataList) : _listRef(dataList) {
} protected:
const QList<QSharedPointer<Data>> & _listRef;
}

This does not allow me to initialize _listRef as something like NULL when it is not applicable.Also, i must change all my constructors and its child class to include an initialization of _listRef!!

What is the alternative? Is pointer the nearest? which of the following should be used?

Code:
const QList<QSharedPointer<Data>> * _listRef;
or
const QList<QSharedPointer<Data>> *const _listRef;
or
const QSharedPointer<QList<QSharedPointer<Data>>> _listRef; ????

C++ :: Casting Non-const Variable To Const

Jun 19, 2013

Is there any way to cast a non-const variable to const one?

I want to read variable n from file and then use it to declare array "int arr[n]", but because n is non-const, the compiler doesn't allow me to do that.

C++ :: What Can't Non-const Object Receive Temporary Object

Sep 11, 2014

a function returns a temporary object like

int myfun(){
int x = 0;
return x;
}

this function will return a temporary integer now void fun1(const int & num); this function can receive from myfun().BUT void fun2(int & num); this function cannot receive from myfun() Why is that, Moreover what is lifetime of a temporary object like one returned in myfun() ???

C++ :: How Many Times Is A Const Variable Initialized

Jan 12, 2012

I hope I got all the jargon correct. I have something like this:

Code:

const Fl_Color my_fl_dark_gray=fl_color_cube(64*(FL_NUM_RED-1)/255, 64*(FL_NUM_GREEN-1)/255, 64*(FL_NUM_BLUE-1)/255);

in a header file and the header file is included in several C files.

Questions:

At run time,

Is there just one copy of the const variable my_fl_dark_gray or are there multiple copies for the multiple C files?If a function uses the const variable, does the initialization statement "my_fl_dark_gray=fl_color_cube(...);" run every time the function is called or does it just run once and then when the function is called it just uses the value stored in memory?

C++ ::  Initializing Const Char Member Variable In Constructor?

Jan 23, 2015

I have a class that defines a window (a popup dialog of sorts), and I want the name of that window to be constant. The only problem is that the name of the popup needs to match the title of the parent window, and I get the name of the parent in the constructor. So how do I go about defining this member variable to be constant and initializing it with a value in the constructor?

I want to do something like this, but I know this isn't allowed:

/* class.h */
class foo {
public:
foo(*parentWindowPtr);

[Code] .....

I should mention that yes the name of the parent window is const char *, and I would like to keep it this way.

C/C++ :: Const Pointer Pass By Reference In Print Function

Apr 21, 2014

I am trying use a print function to print out data in a struct. My questions are:

1. I have to use pass by reference. For the print function, I am passing the struct pointer as a reference, however, I don't want the print function to accidentally change anything. How can I make it use const to ensure that?

2. The deleteprt function doesn't look right to me. I feel like it should just be delete ptr not delete [] ptr.

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
struct Inventory {

C :: Declaration And Definition Of A Variable

May 11, 2013

I read that Memory is allocated during definition of a variable and not during declaration. Declaration is something like,

Code: int x;

And definition is assigning some value to it. This is what my professor taught. My doubt is if memory is not allocated during declaration, then how the compiler successfully compiles and runs the following, which i had already tried.

Code:
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
int main() {
int c;
int *p=&c;
printf("%x",p);
getch();
return 0;
}

The variable c is only declared. But the program outputs a memory address. Shouldn't it show an error?

C :: Assigning Value During Pointer Declaration

Aug 31, 2013

I am trying to understand the behavior of following code. Basically how does printf() prints the value rather than address.

Does initializing value to a pointer during declaration makes a difference when assigned from a variable?

Code:

1 #include <stdio.h>

3 int main() {
4 const char *var1 = 'A';
5 int *vint = 10;

C :: Declaration And Definition Of External Variable

Jan 11, 2014

Why I take warning on this code :

Code:
#include<stdio.h>
extern int v = 0; // Declaration and definition of an external
int main(void)

[code]...

Is there any error? Why I take a warning: 'v' initialized and declared 'extern'|||=== Build finished: 0 errors, 1 warnings ===| ???

and what is the meaning of :An extern declaration that initializes a variable serves as a definition of the variable. This rule prevents multiple extern declarations from initializing a variable in different ways.

What is difference (memory allocation or any) between declaring a variable inside or outside the variable

program1:

Difference b/w program1 and program2. Its look both are same. but my compiler shows something difference.

C++ :: T Minus Loops - Variable Index Declaration

Apr 25, 2014

(while)

T minus 10 and counting
T minus 9 and counting
T minus 8 and counting
T minus 7 and counting
T minus 6 and counting
T minus 5 and counting
T minus 4 and counting
T minus 3 and counting
T minus 2 and counting
T minus 1 and counting

Declare the following index before the while loop:

int index = 10;

Correctly code a while statement below using the variable index as defined above, to produce the output shown above.

So this is what my code looks like... I also have to convert this same loop into a do while and for loop. So if I can get this one right I think the others should come relatively easy.

while (int index >= 10) {
cout << "T minus " << index;
index--;
}

C/C++ :: Local Variable Declaration - While Loop Expression

Feb 3, 2013

I got the following lines of code from a book. The variable char c is being used here to demonstration local variable declaration.

  while(char c = cin.get() != 'q') {
    cout << c << " wasn't it" << endl;
    if(char x = c == 'a' || c == 'b')
      cout << "You typed a or b" << endl;
    else
      cout << "You typed " << x << endl;
  }

It compiles and runs. There are two issues when I try to run it.

1) It seems to loop through two times for every entry. If I insert cin.ignore() just before the closing bracket, it seems to work better.

2) the variable c does not seem to have the character I entered when examined in the if statement.

What is happening with the variable c inside the while loop scope?

Does c actually get initialized?

C++ :: Store A Reference Variable As Member Variable Of Interface Object

May 1, 2013

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.

C :: String Declaration As Global / Main Local Variable

Nov 14, 2013

When a declare a string e.g.

Code:
char str[30]; as a global variable, the srting is initialized to NULL.

But if I declare char str1[30] INSIDE main(), then the string has garbage inside.... Why this happens??

E.g. the following code snippet...

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
char str[50];
int main(){
char str1[50];

C++ :: Get Pointer That Iterator Points To And Store In Pointer Variable?

Apr 19, 2014

I'm making a system like twitter for class called ShoutOut.com I want to be able to get the PublicShoutOut pointer pointed to by the start iterator and assign it to firstShoutOutToDisplay and secondShoutOutToDisplay because I need that in order to pass the pointers to one of my functions. When I step through the debugger the values in start are all default values like "" and so are the values in this->firstShoutOutToDisplay but the message that start points to is being output just fine.

EDIT: got rid of irrelevant code. Am I using the correct syntax to do this?

if (start != finish) {
//getting these because a shoutout needs to be passed to the function that displays
//options for a shoutout
this->firstShoutoutToDisplay = (*start);
