im working with simple 2D array,but in my copy constructor i encounter a problem. Here's a excerpt from my code:
//default constructor
Matrix::Matrix(int r, int c)
{
rows = r;
cols = c;
mainArray = new int[rows*cols];
array = new int *[rows];
for (int i = 0; i < rows; i++)
array[i] = mainArray + (i*cols);
}
//at member
int& Matrix::at(int i, int j)
{
return array[i][j];
}
//copy constructor
Matrix::Matrix(const Matrix & obj)
{
rows = obj.rows;
cols = obj.cols;
mainArray = new int[rows*cols];
array = new int *[rows];
for (int i = 0; i < rows; i++)
array[i] = mainArray + (i*cols);
}
for (int i = 0; i < obj.rows; i++)
{
for (int j = 0; j < obj.cols; j++)
at(i, j) =obj.at(i,j);//PROBLEM
}
}
when im trying to assign at(i,j)=obj.at(i,j)
i get this: the object has type qualifiers that are not compatible with the member function
as far as i know, copy constructor is supposed to be passed by (const class& obj)
. what should i do?
That's because your copy constructor take a const
parameter, and your method Matrix::at
is not const.
I suggest you to do two versions of your at
method, one const and one not :
// Use for assignement
int& Matrix::at(int i, int j)
{
return array[i][j];
}
// Use for reading
int Matrix::at(int i, int j) const
{
return array[i][j];
}
Your compiler should know in which case call which one without your help, depending if you are trying to modify or just read your instance :
Matrix matrix(4, 4);
matrix.at(1, 2) = 42; // Assignement method called
int i = matrix.at(1, 2); // Read method called
Realize two versions of at
function, one const
and one non-const
.
int& Matrix::at(int i, int j)
{
return array[i][j];
}
int Matrix::at(int i, int j) const
{
return array[i][j];
}
