I'm not used to c++ and I'm having a problem writing a constructor.
See this example, is a short version of the code I'm working on:
class B {
public:
B(int x);
}
class A {
public:
B b;
A(){
// here I have to initialize b
}
}
That throws a compiler error since I need to initialize b in A's constructor because B does not have a default constructor.
I think I have do it in the initialization list, but the B(int x) argument is a value I have to calculate with some algorithm, so I don't know how this should be properly done, or if I'm missing something or doing it wrong.
In other language like java I would have a reference to B and initialize it inside the A's constructor after the other code I need to get the value for the initialization.
What would be the right way to initialize b in this case?
Thanks!
You can invoke functions in your constructor initializer list
class B {
public:
B(int x);
}; // note semicolon
class A {
public:
B b;
A()
:b(calculateValue()) {
// here I have to initialize b
}
static int calculateValue() {
/* ... */
}
}; // note semicolon
Note that in the initializer list, the class is considered completely defined, so you can see members declared later on too. Also better not use non-static functions in the constructor initializer list, since not all members have yet been initialized at that point. A static member function call is fine.
您使用初始化列表,如下所示:
A() : b(f(x)) {}
#include<iostream>
class B {
public:
B(){} // A default constructor is a must, if you have other variations of constructor
B(int x){}
}; // class body ends with a semicolon
class A {
private:
B b;
public:
A(){
// here I have to initialize b
}
void write(){
std::cout<<"Awesome";
}
};
int main(){
A a;
a.write();
}
In C++, if you have a constructor that takes an argument, a default constructor is a must, unlike other languages as Java. That's all you need to change. Thanks.
