Weird errors? C++

(1/1)

npro:
Hello,

I just installed Code::Blocks and I use the GNU GCC Compiler. Then I tried to add some working code(tested in visual studio successfully), and the code was:

--- Code: ---// overloading operators example

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

using namespace std;
int nopel;


class ArrayWrapper
{
public:
// default constructor produces a moderately sized array
ArrayWrapper()
: _p_vals(new int[64])

{
std::cout << "in arraywrapper constructor no arg";
}

ArrayWrapper(int n)
: _p_vals(new int[n])

{
std::cout << "in arraywrapper constructor args";
}

// move constructor
ArrayWrapper(ArrayWrapper&& other)
: _p_vals(other._p_vals)

{
std::cout << "in arraywrapper move constructor";
other._p_vals = NULL;
}

// copy constructor
ArrayWrapper(const ArrayWrapper& other)
: _p_vals(new int[5])

{
std::cout << "in arraywrapper copy constructor";
for (int i = 0; i < 6; ++i)
{
_p_vals[i] = other._p_vals[i];
}
}
~ArrayWrapper()
{
delete[] _p_vals;
}
private:
int *_p_vals;
};


void tryer(int&& i) { i = 12; }
int main() {


system("pause");
return 0;
}

--- End code ---

It all works just as expected in visual studio as mentioned before, but when I try to compile it in Code::Blocks, I get all these weird errors:
||=== Build file: "no target" in "no project" (compiler: unknown) ===|
C:\Users\ss\Documents\c++ files\tryy.cpp|29|error: expected ',' or '...' before '&&' token|
C:\Users\ss\Documents\c++ files\tryy.cpp|29|error: invalid constructor; you probably meant 'ArrayWrapper (const ArrayWrapper&)'|

||=== Build failed: 5 error(s), 0 warning(s) (0 minute(s), 0 second(s)) ===|

Can anybody please tell me how I can fix this? I mean it is pretty frustrating when it all should work and works in visual studio.

Thanks!!

BlueHazzard:
Codeblocks is a IDE, not a compiler. You get compiler errors so this is the wrong forum to ask this kind of questions. We support only codeblocks not the underlying compiler...
One thing i noted:

this comes probably from:

--- Code: ---ArrayWrapper(ArrayWrapper&& other)
--- End code ---
so you are using a new c++ feature. You need at least GCC 4.3 to use RValue reference and you will enable c++11 by adding the "-std=c++11" compiler flag to the build options

Krice:
Here's my thoughts about that code:

1. Don't make array classes yourself. Just don't. Use STL.
2. using namespace std; Don't write that line again ever. Use parts of STL if needed: using std::vector; for example.
3. Don't use global variables in C++ (that 'nopel' whatever it is, totally crappy name for a variable).
4. Don't use _ at front of your own variables.
5. Don't use magic numbers.
6. Your for-loop leaks, it's one off. It should be 0 to less than 5 (0-4 is 5 items).
7. Rather than programming try thinking some other things to do in life.

So it crashes on copy constructing an ArrayWrapper if the source has less than 6 elements and doesn't copy more than 5 elements of it? Well, despite you apparently don't know what you are coding there, the real problem is this:

CodeBlocks doesn't work well without a project, so first create a project (afaik Visual Studio doesn't work without projects at all, so why didnt you make a project here as well?!). Then you also might need to configure it to use the proper compiler and enable c++11 support in it (only very recent GCC should ship with c++11 enabled by default). But after all i've seen from you so far i think the easiest solution is to stay with Visual Studio.
