Best way to check if one of other objects is true or not - c++

Question

I am looking for best way to implement this scenario:
I have 4 objects that have Boolean member that in the flow of the app sometimes they are set to true and sometimes are set to false depending on conditions;
Then I have final function that gets 1 of this objects and needs to check if in the other 3 objects one of them has the member set to true .
The problem is I know how to do the dirty check , and I am searching for cleaner way here is my code for the final function:
class Obj
{
public :
Obj(int _id) : id(_id)
bool status;
int id // only 4 objects are created 0,1,2,3
}
m_obj0 = new Obj(0) ;
m_obj1 = new Obj(1) ;
m_obj2 = new Obj(2) ;
m_obj3 = new Obj(3) ;
bool check(Obj* obj)
{
if(obj->id == 0)
{
if(m_obj1->status || m_obj2->status || m_obj3->status)
{
return true;
}
return false;
}else if(obj->id == 1)(
if(m_obj0->status || m_obj2->status || m_obj3->status)
{
return true;
}
return false;
}else if(obj->id == 2)(
if(m_obj0->status || m_obj1->status || m_obj3->status)
{
return true;
}
return false;
}else if(obj->id == 3)(
if(m_obj0->status || m_obj1->status || m_obj2->status)
{
return true;
}
return false;
}
is there a shorter and cleaner way to accomplish this check function ?

Answer 1

You can set m_obj as an array. Then use a for loop to check
bool check(Obj* obj)
{
for (int i = 0; i < 4; i ++) {
if (obj->id == i) continue;
if (m_obj[i]->status == true)
return true;
}
return false;
}
Or add them together, then subtract m_obj[obj->id]->status。Check the result is zero or not
bool check(Obj* obj)
{
int result = m_obj[0]->status+m_obj[1]->statusm_obj[2]->status
+m_obj[3]->status-m_obj[obj->id]->status;
return (result!=0);
}
