Posted: Sat May 12, 2007 9:10 am Post subject: Specifying a defualt value for the parameters in a method |
|
|
I wonder if there's a simple way to specify the default
values so that when i call a function designed to receive
an int and a double, i can specify the first but not the
latter. Something like:
int foo (int i, double d) {...}
but invoked by
int a = foo (5);
In Java that was done by simply overloading the
methods and using a bunch of similar definition, calling
each other. Is there a nicer solution?

Hi,

assignment in the header file, the cpp-file or perhaps
both? Which would be recommended? Which is legal?

It is better to declare it in the header file so that statements that
use the default assignment in other translations units will compile.
Cheers |

Ah, that was really nice. Thanks.
However, i wonder if one should do the "double d = 0.0"
assignment in the header file, the cpp-file or perhaps
both? Which would be recommended? Which is legal?
