in this header i have declared a struct can i declare another one in the same header (i kno i probally can....)
but do i just declare another one right after or.......
here is the code
#ifndef _Dagger_H
#define _Dagger_H
struct weapon{
char type[30];
char name[30];
int tohitmod;
int damage;
int damagemod;
};
// another struct here??
#endif

You can declare as many structs as you want or need as long as the names don't clash.

I usually use typedef when creating structures, then I can easily create new ones based on the "original":
Code:typedef struct { int Var1; int Var2; char* String; }MYSTRUCT; MYSTRUCT MyStruct; MYSTRUCT AnotherStruct; MYSTRUCT AThirdStruct; MyStruct.Var1=20; AThirdStruct.Var2=15;

with a class I have learnt to do this...
class Myclass
{
....
....
....
};
Myclass classExample1;
Myclass myclassArray [10];
can the saem be doe with structs or must I use typedef to accomplish this, like in the last post?
>>can the saem be doe with structs
Yes.
Structs and classes are almost identical.

The only difference between structs and classes in C++ are that structs' "default level" of data access is public as opposed to classes' private.
But we tend to use structs for different uses than classes. How often do you see someone put a function in a struct?
Greetings,
In C++, structs "are" classes in C++, and don't need the "typedef". Try this code for example:
Da only diference is, like rmullen3 said, that members default to public in structs, and to private in classes! Apart from that the 2 keywords mean the same thing!Code:#include <iostream> #define USE_STRUCT // remove this to use the "class" version #ifdef USE_STRUCT struct MyClass { MyClass() {} virtual ~MyClass() {} void set(int newVal) { some_var = newVal; } int get() { return some_var; } private: int some_var; }; #else class MyClass { int some_var; public: MyClass() {} virtual ~MyClass() {} void set(int newVal) { some_var = newVal; } int get() { return some_var; } }; #endif int main() { MyClass myclass; myclass.set(10); std::cout << myclass.get() << std::endl; return 0; }
