What the best way to initialize a constructor in an array of objects?
Usually I declare an array of objects like so:
Code:
Car toyota[100];
Is this the only way I know to initialize a constructor of an array:
Code:
for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
{
toyota[i] = Car(x, y);
}
Is this the proper way?
There are two class.How can I initialize an array of different class in a constructor?
class Ticket{
private:
int ID;
[Code]....
I have to provide a no-argument constructor (Cinema();)to initialize the ticket array and give the right ticket ID.
I am currently practicing designing classes. In one exercise, I am trying to store 15 words in an array, and randomly print one (using the rand() functions and seeding it with crime. I have a header file, a respective .cpp file, and a main .cpp file. When I try to compile the code using g++ GuessWord.cpp UseGuessWord.cpp -o UseGuessWord, I get the following error in my constructor: expected primary-expression before ‘{’ token
Here is my code:
header file (GuessWord.h):
#ifndef GUESSWORD
#define GUESSWORD
#include <string>
using namespace std;
[code].....
Need a C++ constructor to initialize each members of an array. how to give value for for each elements of an array declared as a class object according to the users input.

I've searched the net, saying the error may be due to an uninitialzed variable.I debugged the code, and found out that an object created from directx D3DXMATRIXA16 is uninitialized.With values ??,??,?? in each element
pMeshContainer->pBoneMatrices = new D3DXMATRIXA16[g_NumBoneMatricesMax];
here, pMeshContainer is a variable passed into a function called GenerateSkinnedMesh by pointer
GenerateSkinnedMesh(..., D3DXMESHCONTAINER_DERIVED *pMeshContainer)
Then in turn, GenerateSkinnedMesh is called within a callback from a DirectX9 API called
ID3DXAllocateHierarchy
Code:
class CAllocateHierarchy : public ID3DXAllocateHierarchy {
public:
STDMETHOD( CreateFrame )( THIS_ LPCSTR Name, LPD3DXFRAME *ppNewFrame );
STDMETHOD( CreateMeshContainer )( THIS_
LPCSTR Name,
[code]....
when the method CreateMeshContainer finished execution, the meshContainer is passed back to its parent like this
*ppMeshContainer = pMeshContainer;
The whole meshContainer stuff is stored persistently inside the frame root wrapped within a class called CMesh So in that process, I haven't initialized pBoneMatrices in anyways. But what and where is the best way to initialize an array of DirectX9 objects.
There is a function called
D3DXMatrixIdentity(&...);
But how can I initialize each one of them with this call?
Notice that pMeshContainer->pBoneMatrices does contain a valid address, despite the fact that the elements inside it are never initialized...
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();

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.
I am making a tic tac toe program in which they are asking me to have a 3x3 2 dimensional array of integers and have the constructor initialize the empty board to all zeros. They also want me to place a 1 or 2 in each empty board space denoting the place where player 1 or player 2 would move The problem I'm having is, my code initializes the board to all zeros for each element of the array, and prints it out just fine, but I can't figure out how to re-initialize the values in the array to show where each player moves on the board... I was thinking about having a default constructor that has each value set to zero, and then use a setGame function that can change the values on the board to one or two depending on where the player moves....but I don't know if that's possible.....
here is my code
Code:
// header file
#include <iostream>
#include <array>
class tictac {
public:
tictac(int);
[code]....
I notice I keep making the same mistake of not declaring certain objects, variables or lists inside the constructor so they e.g. a list populates when the view loads.
Which makes me think about it this way. Why do I need the constructor and when do I declare objects inside the constructor?
Maybe it just comes down to me not understanding the fundamentals of how to utilize the constructor.
class Date
Date(int=1, int=1, int=1990);
class Person
Person(string="", string="", Date=NULL);
class RealEstateAgent:Public Person
RealEstateAgent(string="",string="",Date=NULL,Date=NULL,int=NULL, double=0.0);
}
[code]....
how can I assign default values with Customer object and RealEstateAgent?
I'm trying to compile the following and it doesn't work? How can I get the CString to initialize.
Code:
struct print {
int x; //row
int y; //col
int fid;
CString *data;
char *format;
[Code] .....
the char *format is not a problem, but compiler doesn't like CString *data;
tried CSting data and that also doesn't work, typecasting didn't work either?
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'm working on a project which consists of several ocx loaded by one exe. The platform is WinCE. Now I'm on a process to create a new ocx. I do have a copy of those ocx projects in Win32 platform. These Win32 versions were only used to register ocx in local system and then put those on to application dialog by 'Insert ActiveX'.
Now the problem is those Win32 projects are so outdated, and unable to build. Getting too many linking errors to be solved.
I have build the new ocx and link that with exe manually by editing .rc file and all. But still no luck. New ocx is getting registered in WinCE device but failing to start application.
Example :
Code:
struct x {
int v[4];
};
const x test = { 0, 1, 2, 3 };
Why can I do this? How does the compiler know to write to this in the proper way? I get that v would be contiguous. Does that have something to do with it?
I am trying to initialize an array of pointers to an array of characters, I can do it in 3 lines but I really want to do it in one line at the same time keeping the #define.
3 lines initialization (can compile)
======================
#define A 1
#define B 2
char row1[] = {A|B, B, A};
char row2[] = {B, A};
char *test[]= {row1, row2};
1 line initialization (failed)
===============================
char *test[] = { {A|B, B, A}, {B, A} }; // <- how do i do this??
I do not want this because it waste ROM space
=============================================
char test[][3] = { {A|B, B, A}, {B, A} };
imagine you have a world class. Than you have a tile class. Now, in the world class is a array with a lot of tiles and I want to initialize them with my imagination(For example I want a grass floor). But how I can do this, the array can only be create with the standard constructor. But it would be stupid and not very fast, that the tiles are first initialized with the standard constructor and than overridden to build the world. Whats the best way to initialize such a array ?
View 12 Replies View RelatedI am creating a class that has a private array on the heap with a constructor that takes the size of the array and initializes it on the heap. Later I have to make a deconstructor delete the space and print out free after.In my code, I was able to heap a private array and make a deconstructor, but I don't know how to take the size of the array and initialize it on the heap. My guess is this:
int* size = new int();
Also when you initialize size on the heap, don't you also have to delete it too? If so, where, in the code, do you do that? Here is my code so far.
Class Student {
private:
int size;
int* array = new int[size];
public:
Student(); // Constructor
~Student(); // Deconstructor
[code]....
How do you make a constructor that takes the size of the array and initializes it on the heap
Student::~Student()
{
delete[] array;
cout << "Free!" << endl;
}
We can initialize normal function prototype's parameters with zero like this:-
void output(float = 0.0, int = 0);
or
void output(int = 0, int = 0, double = 0.0);
But how do you do the same for a pointer array or simply an array?
Assume that second parameter has to be an array.
I have tried the following and it does not work:-
void output(float = 0.0, int = 0);
void output(float = 0.0, *int = 0);
void output(float = 0.0, int* = 0);
void output(float = 0.0, int[] = 0);
void output(float = 0.0, int []);
But if I skip the default declarations altogether, it works.
like:
void output(float, int []);
or
void output(float, int*);
how can I do it by explicitly writing zero, just like the first cases?
I'm a newbie to C++ and I am writing a code that searches strings and checks their value. I'm mostly working with if statements.
My code tends crash on Dev C++, even when I haven't recently saved any changes or compiled it, citing "memory access errors".
I recompiled in visual studio, and visual studio told me I have string out of bound errors.
My code is very long... but most of it is copy and pasted with slightly different conditions.
I believe the problem lies in how I initialize arr[4] ??
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <sstream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
cout << "Hall symbol -- generator matrix program" << endl;
// Setting up a data structure bc a normal array cannot handle the data for the spacegroups
[Code] ....
I somewhere read "You cannot initialize a structure like that at run time."
Example:
struct item_info {
char itemname[15];
int quantity;
float retail;
float wholesale;
[Code] ....
But if you want to assign values at run time then you have to do it manually like:
strcpy(item[0].itemname, "rice");
item[0].quantity = 10;
item[0].retail = 40;
item[0].wholesale = 30;
I tried in internet but am unable to know the differences. I want to know the difference between those two in terms of run time and compile time. Explanation required also for below one. Is this run time or compile time? How does we actually decide which is run time and which is compile time!
struct item_info {
char itemname[15];
int quantity;
float retail;
float wholesale;
//int quatityonorder;
[Code] ....
The following:
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
int i;
int arr[3];
[Code] ....
Notice we didn't set a value for second index but it returns 0. Should I assume that when declaring an array with n values, those values will be initialized to 0 automatically or should I still initialize the array with all 0s doing something like this:
Code:
for(i=0;i<sizeof(arr);i++) {
arr[i]=0;
}
Suppose I wished to initialize a dynamically allocated array of integers to zero. Would I do better to use calloc() or malloc + iterate over all entries setting each to zero? Which one is regarded as a better approach?
