Hello,
I have const member in the class.
How can I initialise these.
I can not initialise in constructor ,(it is giving compilation error)
What is the proper way to initialise.
The code is given below.
Regards,
santosh




class NamedPtr
{
const string a;
const int i;
const int* ptr_int;
public:
NamedPtr(const string &s,int * x,int b=90)
{
cout<<"constor"<<endl;
//=b;
//s;
//r_int=x;
}

Do it the same way any member is initialized,
in the initializer list.

Nothing can be initialized in the constructor body,
as when it begins to execute it's too late. What
you have in your code below is not initialization,
it's assignment, not the same thing.

Initializer list. See below.

NamedPtr(const string& s, int *x, int b = 90)
: a(s), ptr_int(x), i(b) /* initializer list */
{
}

-Mike

Use an intiialization list:

NamedPtr(const string &s,int * x,int b=90)
: a(s), ptr_int(x), i(b)
{
cout<<"constor"<<endl;
}

Take care,

NamedPtr(const string &s,int * x,int b=90) : a(s), i(b), ptr_int(x),
{
cout<<"constor"<<endl;
...
}
