Error c2664 in VS 2013 C++ - c++
So, I have a class called "music" and when I try to compile the code, it gives me the following errors:

etc...
What can I to to resolve this issue ? Thanks!
You should try
music(char* songName, char* name, char* type, char* path, float size, char* artist, char* title, int year);
since char is a single character not pointer to a C string. Even better you should use a modern string class instead of old pointer stuff.
You're trying to pass string types ("ceva", "mp3", etc) into char parameters. To solve this, change your constructor parameters from char to string.
In the signature, the function accpects a char for name, but you send a char*.
music(char* songName, char name, char type, char path, float size, char artist, char title, int year)
I think it should be:
music(char* songName, char* name, char* type, char* path, float size, char* artist, char* title, int year)
You got your anwser, use string types or pointers.
As to why this is happening: You are passing characters as values, which mean they get their own new char array instance, this is clashing with the const instance of the argument. This is why the first argument (which was an explicit pointer) didn't cause an error.

LMS error no operator = matches these operands
So for practice purposes I am creating a library management system using composition, to understand and practice the concept of composition.so i have a book class and a user class. i am composing a pointer of book class in the user class. i am using dma (dynamic memory allocation) for the add function.but i am getting this error that i am unable to debug.

The problem is that the object b on the left hand side of the assignment b = new book[bno + 1]; is of type book while the object on the right hand side is of type book*. //---v----------------------->type of object b is book b = new book[bno + 1]; //-------^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^----type of the resulting object on rhs is book* That is there is a mismatch in the type on the left hand side and right hand side of the assignment and since there is no overloaded operator= that has parameter of type book and book* you get the mentioned error. Additionally you're missing return statements inside operator<< and inside add.
I can't return the const char * variable using inheritance setter and getter
I can print the correct value in setter function but when I try to return the same variable using getter there is no output. Here is my code. Anyone has idea on how I correct my code?
class Student {
public:
char age;
double height;
double gpa;
int getAge();
void setAge(int *);
protected:
const char * name;
};
class Male :Student {
public:
void setName(const char * s);
const char * getName();
};
void Male::setName(const char * s){
const char* name = s;
std::cout << name << std::endl;
}
const char* Male::getName() {
return name; //I can't return the value of variable name.
std::cout << name << std::endl;
}
void Student::setAge(int* c) {
age = *c;
}
int Student::getAge() {
return age;
}
int main() {
Student jason;
Male myName;
int edad = 30;
jason.height = 162;
jason.gpa = 1.5;
jason.setAge(&edad);
myName.setName("James");
std::cout << jason.height << "\n" << jason.getAge() << "\n" << jason.gpa << "\n" << std::endl;
system("pause");
return 0;
}
I don't know why I can't return the const char variable. :(
void Male::setName(const char * s) {
name = s;
std::cout << name << std::endl;
}
You need to set s to the member variable name instead of creating a local variable in the method
C++ Copy Constructor & Operator Overloading
I am relatively new to classes and was introduced to copy constructors and overloading last week. I am supposed to overload the = operator and use it to assign multiple variables using the class name.
For some reason, running the program causes a popup saying
program.cpp has stopped responding.
I am positive there are minor/major things that I am missing due to me being a rookie with objects in C++.
Any advice is very much appreciated!
#include<iostream>
#include<string>
using namespace std;
class Employee
{
private:
char *name;
string ID;
double salary;
public:
Employee() {}
Employee(char *name, string eid, double salary) {}
Employee(const Employee &obj)
{
name = new char;
ID = obj.ID;
salary = obj.salary;
}
~Employee() {}
void setName(char *n)
{
name = n;
}
void setID(string i)
{
ID = i;
}
void setSalary(double s)
{
salary = s;
}
char getName()
{
return *name;
}
string getID()
{
return ID;
}
double getSalary()
{
return salary;
}
Employee operator = (Employee &right)
{
delete[] name;
ID = right.ID;
salary = right.salary;
return *this;
}
};
int main()
{
Employee e1("John", "e222", 60000), e2(e1), e3, e4;
e3 = e4 = e2;
e2.setName("Michael");
e2.setSalary(75000);
e3.setName("Aaron");
e3.setSalary(63000);
e4.setName("Peter");
cout << "\nName: " << e1.getName() << "\nID: " << e1.getID() << "\nSalary: " << e1.getSalary() << endl;
cout << "\nName: " << e2.getName() << "\nID: " << e2.getID() << "\nSalary: " << e2.getSalary() << endl;

cout << "\nName: " << e4.getName() << "\nID: " << e4.getID() << "\nSalary: " << e4.getSalary() << endl;
return 0;
}
There are several issues with this code.
The first issue is in the constructor Employee(char *name, string eid, double salary) {} which is just doing nothing and ignoring the passed data whereas it should be using it to initialize the fields (class member data).
Employee(char *name, string eid, double salary)
{
const size_t bufferSize = strlen(name) + 1;
this->name = new char[bufferSize];
memcpy(this->name, name, bufferSize);
this->ID = eid;
this->salary = salary;
}
The second issue is in the copy constructor Employee(const Employee &obj) , where you are just initializing the name (with single byte of char) and that's it. What the copy constructor suppose to do is initialize the fields (class members) of the class with the fields of the class object being passed to it.
Employee(const Employee &obj)
{
const size_t bufferSize = strlen(name) + 1;
this->name = new char[bufferSize];
memcpy(this->name, name, bufferSize);
ID = obj.ID;
salary = obj.salary;
}
the third issue is with the default constructor which is suppose to initialize the name pointer with the NULL so that the destructor could clean it up nicely:
Employee() : name(NULL) {}
~Employee()
{
if (NULL != name)
delete[] name;
}
the fourth and last problem is with the assignment operator that's suppose to properly initialize the name member data instead of deleting it (which doesn't make sense)
Employee operator = (Employee &right)
{
if (NULL != this->name)
delete[] this->name;
const size_t bufferSize = strlen(right.name) + 1;
this->name = new char[bufferSize];
memcpy(this->name, right.name, bufferSize);
ID = right.ID;
salary = right.salary;
return *this;
}
The problem is this line: delete[] name; You shouldn't delete anything you haven't allocated with new first. If you delete the above line, your program kind of works. :)
Here's a slightly revised version of your program that works:
#include<iostream>
#include<string>
using namespace std;
class Employee
{
private:
char *name;
string ID;
double salary;
public:
Employee() {}
Employee(char *name, string eid, double salary)
: name (name) // ADDED THESE
, ID(eid)
, salary(salary)
{
}
Employee(const Employee &obj)
{
name = obj.name; // WAS: new char;
ID = obj.ID;
salary = obj.salary;
}
~Employee() {}
void setName(char *n)
{
name = n;
}
void setID(string i)
{
ID = i;
}
void setSalary(double s)
{
salary = s;
}
char * getName()
{
return name;
}
string getID()
{
return ID;
}
double getSalary()
{
return salary;
}
Employee operator = (const Employee &right)
{
name = right.name; // WAS: delete[] name;
ID = right.ID;
salary = right.salary;
return *this;
}
};
int main()
{
Employee e1("John", "e222", 60000), e2(e1), e3, e4;
e3 = e4 = e2;
e2.setName("Michael");
e2.setSalary(75000);
e3.setName("Aaron");
e3.setSalary(63000);
e4.setName("Peter");
cout << "\nName: " << e1.getName() << "\nID: " << e1.getID() << "\nSalary: " << e1.getSalary() << endl;
cout << "\nName: " << e2.getName() << "\nID: " << e2.getID() << "\nSalary: " << e2.getSalary() << endl;
cout << "\nName: " << e3.getName() << "\nID: " << e3.getID() << "\nSalary: " << e3.getSalary() << endl;
cout << "\nName: " << e4.getName() << "\nID: " << e4.getID() << "\nSalary: " << e4.getSalary() << endl;
return 0;

Dictionary dictionary1("English", NULL, 0, false);
}
I have this main:
Dictionary dictionary1("English", NULL, 0, false);
How should I change the constructor to work? I receive a error :
Arrgument types are:(const char[8],int,int,bool);
And how should I write the default constructor?
NULL cannot be assigned to Word. Try Word() instead which will call the default constructor to Word. Consider changing that function parameter to const Word& - anonymous temporaries are allowed to bind to const references. I'd prefer to see a std::string as the type for the member variable language; using a const std::string& as the function parameter. Then you will not have to worry about a subsequent delete call, and defining your own assignment operators and copy constructors. Currently, your class leaks memory.
You can not Assign null to the type Word. If you want to default it you should pass something like word()
Dictionary dictionary1("English", word(), 0, false);
EDIT:
The better approach,IMO, that will work for the same main() you have is like this:
class Dictionary{
private:
std::string language;
int noWords;
bool isOnline;
std::array<Word,100> v;
public:
Dictionary(std::string const& language, Word* w, int noWords, bool isOnline): language (language),isOnline(isOnline ),noWords(noWords)
{
for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++){
this->v[i] = (w==NULL)?word():*w;
}
}
};
Error: Expression must have a class type? Trouble with Class Member Function
I'm a fairly novice programmer, and I'm having a bit of trouble sorting through this error. While trying to implement the "formatReportLine()" function near the end of main, this error pops up:
"2 IntelliSense: expression must have class type"
main.cpp
int main()
{
const string FILENAME("books.txt");
ifstream input(FILENAME);
if( input.good() )
{
while( !input.eof() )
{
string name;
int type;
int pages;
float ounces;
getline( input, name );
input >> type >> pages >> ounces;
input.ignore(INT_MAX, '\n');
Book newBook( const string& name, Type type, int pages, float ounces );
cout << newBook.formatReportLine() << endl; //Difficulty with this line
}
}
else
{
cout << "File not found: " << FILENAME << endl;
}
return 0;
}
Here is Book.cpp:
//Constructor
Book::Book( const string& name, Type type, int pages, float ounces )
{
bName = static_cast<string>(name);
bType = type;
bPages = pages;
bOunces = ounces;
cout << "The constructor is running" << endl;
}
//Default Constructor
Book::Book() {
bName = "";
bType = UNKNOWN;
bPages = 0;
bOunces = 0.0f;
}
float Book::getWeightLbs()
{
const float OUNCES = 16.0f;
return bOunces / OUNCES;
}
string Book::getTypeName()
{
return TYPE_WORDS[bType];
}
string Book::formatReportLine()
{
stringstream reportLine;
reportLine << Book::getName() << setw(5) << "| Type: " << Book::getTypeName() << setw(5) << "Pages: "
<< Book::getPages() << setw(5) << "Weight (lbs): " << Book::getWeightLbs();
string newReportLine;
reportLine >> newReportLine;
return newReportLine;
}
And finally book.h
using namespace std;
enum Type
{
UNKNOWN = -1,
PAPERBACK,
HARDBACK
};
const string TYPE_WORDS[] = { "Paperback", "Hardback" };
class Book
{
public:
Book();
//constructor
Book( const string& name, Type type, int pages, float ounces );
//destructor
~Book(){};
string formatReportLine();
float getWeightLbs();
string getTypeName();
//accessors
string getName(){ return bName; };
Type getType(){ return bType; };
int getPages(){ return bPages; };
float getOunces(){ return bOunces; };
private:
string bName;
Type bType;
int bPages;
float bOunces;
};
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
