Why is there no call to the constructor?
I am using Visual studio 2012, Suppose Test is a class
class Test
{
};
When I create a new instance of Test, what's the difference of the following two ways?
way 1
Test t;
way 2
Test t();
I got this question in the code below, originally, I defined an instance of A in way 2, I got only one error because B does not provide an default constructor, but when I define it in way 1, I got an extra error.
class B
{
B(int i){}
};
class A
{
A(){}
B b;
};
int main(void)
{
A a(); // define object a in way 2
getchar() ;
return 0 ;
}
if I define a in way 1
A a;
I will got another error said
error C2248: 'A::A' : cannot access private member declared in class 'A'
So I guess there must be some differences between the two ways.
Test t;
defines a variable called t
of type Test
.
Test t();
declares a function called t
that takes no parameters and returns a Test
.
