What is difference between Constant Object and Constant variable
swatichari
- Sep 30th, 2010
Constant Object is a variable of user-defined class which do not invode non-const member function.Constant variable sustains a value constant of built-in? data type.
jay
- May 16th, 2007
Constant variables are the variables whose value cannot be changed through out the programme but if any object is constant, value of any of the data members (const or non const) of that object cannot be changed through out the programme. Constant object can invoke only constant function.

Exception handling vs. return values to signal an error
Why we would use exception handling rather than different return values to signal an error?

Using exceptions, it becomes easy to pass multiple types?of values from a single function. Handling the exceptions is hirachical.If we dont have exceptions, it will be difficult to return multiple values from a function.

Placement New Syntax
How can a C++ developer use the placement new syntax to make new allocate an object of class SomeClass at a particular memory address stored in a pointer type variable named pmem?A. new SomeClass(pmem);B. new(pmem) SomeClass;C. new SomeClass pmem;D. new pmem SomeClass;E. new (pmem, SomeClass);
ajrobb
- Sep 22nd, 2010
BWhere you use placement new, it is important to explicitly call the destructor for the object before re-using the memory.Fred * fred = new(pmem) Fred();...fred->~Fred();fred = 0;George * george(pmem) George();

Memory Allocation
Why is it suggested not to use malloc() or calloc() in C++ for memory allocation?
ajrobb
- Sep 22nd, 2010
There may be a clash between malloc() and new as they don't HAVE to use the same heap library routines. Also, for arrays of classe objects, new invokes the default constructor. For single class objects new allows you to choose a different constructor.

Program Crash
When can it happen that before calling main function itself program gets crashed?
ajrobb
- Sep 22nd, 2010
I agree.However, there is a difference between global and static. Global objects have global linkage and can be referenced anywhere in the program. Static objects can have access restricted to the file or function where they are defined.

All global static objects will be created before main().Program has problem to instantiate them.

Constructor is the member of a class which is called implicitly when the instance of class is created. It allocates the memory to data.Same as destrutor is also a member of a class. It is called implicitly at the end of execution of class. It deallocates the memory.

What is virtual base class?

Suppose you have two derived classes B and C that have a common base class A, and you also have another class D that inherits from B and C. You can declare the base class A as virtual to ensure that B and C share the same subobject of A.Dj.Maan

If we are working with multiple inheritance, it is always better to make the base class as virtual inorder to avoid the multiple copies of the base class data. :)

What is friend function?
As the name suggests, the function acts as a friend to a class. As a friend of a class, it can access its private and protected members. A friend function is not a member of the class. But it must be listed in the class definition.
