Class constructors

im not sure how to word this but how do i do this

Code:

---


class NM  //create class
...       

NM nm();  //call default constructor

...  //do some stuff

nm(a,b,c); //reconstruct nm with different constructor

...//do more stuff

---

i guess what i want to do is make a class global, then do some stuff to find out variables that i need to initialize the class in main...

thanks

ok first up, this

Code:

---

class NM  //create class

NM nm();  //call default constructor

---

is an error. it doesn't call the default constructor. it declares a function nm returnging an NM object.

well you could create the class, then set the members via set methods, but why do you want to do this? Globals are (usually) a sign of a bad design. give a bit mroe detail and we might be able to help you out.

well, i guess they dont need to global, now that i think about i, i just need to pass them as references... and the NM nm(); was my mistake, it was just an example. I guess i shoulda put a bit more thought into what i was doing... i'm redoing some parts of the code and it required that a function had access to the class, so i thought to make it global. Ya ill just pass it as a reference. :D
