Constructor in implementation versus header

Question

The constructor should, to my knowledge, be defined in the implementation file but I've only been able to find examples with the class inside one main file instead of split into a .h and .cpp file

All I need to know is if my following code is separated in an acceptable manner..

Entity.h:

    using namespace std;

class cEntity {
private:
    /*-----------------------------
    ----------Init Methods---------
    -----------------------------*/
    int *X, *Y;
    int *Height, *Width;

public:
    /*-----------------------------
    ----------Constructor----------
    -----------------------------*/
    cEntity (int,int, int, int);

    /*-----------------------------
    ----------Destructor-----------
    -----------------------------*/
    ~cEntity ();

    /*-----------------------------
    ----------Set Methods----------
    -----------------------------*/

    /*Set X,Y Methods*/
    void setX(int x){*X=x;};
    void setY(int y){*Y=y;};
    void setXY(int x, int y){*X=x; *Y=y;};

    /*Set Height, Width Methods*/
    void setHeight(int x){*Height=x;};
    void setWidth(int x){*Width=x;};
    void setDimensions(int x, int y){*Height=x; *Width=y;};

    /*-----------------------------
    ----------Get Methods----------
    -----------------------------*/

    /*Get X,Y Methods*/
    int getX(){return *X;};
    int getY(){return *Y;};

    /*Get Height, Width Methods*/
    int getHeight(){return *Height;};
    int getWidth(){return *Width;};
};

and Entity.cpp:

#include "Entity.h"


cEntity::cEntity (int x, int y, int height, int width) {
   X,Y,Height,Width = new int;
  *X = x;
  *Y = y;
  *Height = height;
  *Width = width;
}

cEntity::~cEntity () {
  delete X, Y, Height, Width;
}

I would also like to say thanks to everyone for being so helpful, especially on my first question!

Answer 1

cEntity::cEntity (int x, int y, int height, int width) {

is correct

   X,Y,Height,Width = new int;

not so much. That sets Width to a new int, but not the rest. You probably intended:

   X = new int(x);
   Y = new int(y);
   Height = new int(height);
   Width = new int(width);

Note that this method of construction will not work for objects without assignment/copy, like references. For some objects, it's also slower than constructing them in place. As such, the preferred way to construct is like so:

cEntity::cEntity (int x, int y, int height, int width) {
    :X(new int(x))
    ,Y(new int(y))
    ,Height(new int(height))
    ,Width(new int(width))
{}

This is better, but if any exceptions are thrown, you'll have to somehow deallocate the ones that were allocated. Better is to make each of those members a std::unique_ptr<int>, so they'll deallocate themselves and save you many headaches.
