I have written a class as shown below:
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
class A
{
static int cnt;
static void inc()
{
cnt++;
}
int a;
public:
A(){ inc(); }
};
int main()
{
A d;
return 0;
}
I want to call the function inc through the constructor, but when i compile i am getting an error as:
/tmp/ccWR1moH.o: In function `A::inc()':
s.cpp:(.text._ZN1A3incEv[A::inc()]+0x6): undefined reference to `A::cnt'
s.cpp:(.text._ZN1A3incEv[A::inc()]+0xf): undefined reference to `A::cnt'
I am unable to understand what the error is... plz help...
Static field is not defined - Take a look at Why are classes with static data members getting linker errors? .
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
class A
{
static int cnt;
static void inc(){
cnt++;
}
int a;
public:
A(){ inc(); }
};
int A::cnt; //<---- HERE
int main()
{
A d;
return 0;
}
Inside the class static int cnt;
is only declared, and need to be defined. In C++ you usually declare in your .h .hpp files and then define your static class members in your .c and .cpp files.
In your case, you need to add
int A::cnt=0; // = 0 Would be better, otherwise you're accessing an uninitialized variable.
