    Post how do i declare array of pointers to base clase reobject

    #ifndef REDBASE_H
    #define REDBASE_H
    #include <iostream.h>
    #include <fstream.h>


    #include "reobject.h"
    #include "onefamily.h"

    class redbase {
    public:
    redbase(char * file) //Opens file
    {

    file = "property.dat";
    ifstream infile;
    cout<<"\nPlease enter the input file name \n(need including the file extention): ";
    cin>>file;
    fp = file;

    }



    private: reobject *baseptr[100];//Is this Array of pointers to base class?? HELP ME??
    char *fp;

    baseptr baseptr+1;





    };

    #endif


    //I NEED TO DECLARE AN ARRAY OF POINTERS TO REOBJECT
    //HOW DO I DO THAT//

    //I ALSO NEED TO CREATE ANOTHER PRIVATE MEMBER THAT CONTAINS THE INDEX OF THE NEXT AVAILABLE EMPTY CELL IN THE ARRAY OF POINTERS//

    yes, assuming reobject is your base class

    >baseptr baseptr+1;

    what is this for?


    //I ALSO NEED TO CREATE ANOTHER PRIVATE MEMBER THAT CONTAINS THE INDEX OF THE NEXT AVAILABLE EMPTY CELL IN THE ARRAY OF POINTERS//

    Please dont type in all caps. Just have an integer that increment everytime you fill a spot in the array.
    C Code. C Code Run. Run Code Run... Please!

    Just declare the private member but also declare a public access method such as:

    Code:
    private:
    int nextcell;
    
    public:
    incrementcell();{nextcell++;}
    obviously slightly more complicated than that, but from what you have said That is how I would do it.
