 Posted: Sun Jun 29, 2003 9:37 am Post subject: calling a constructor within a constructor |
 |
|
Hi once again, another question,
I want to make a class object MyArray a global but have no idea about
how to go about initialising it within the constructor as it wont let
me do something like,
private:
int size;
MyArray MyArr(size);
I think I need to call the class constructor something to the effect
of
yourArray(int s, int num): MyArr(s)
{
............
}
My code is similar to this
class MyArray
{
............
MyArray(int size);
}
class yourArray
{
private:
MyArray(int);
public:
..
..
..
..
..
}
please help.

Please provide a minimal, but _complete_ example program of what you are
trying. The above code fragments don't make sense.

Make it:
MyArray myArray;
where 'myArray' is just a member variable name of your choice.
Your constructor will look something like:
yourArray::yourArray(int s, int num) : myArray(s) {}
However, this will not make it "global" as you requested. A MyArray object
will be in every yourArray object.

You should stop using the word global to mean what every one else calls a
member variable.
And you should post more complete code.
