QVector of structures without default constructor

Hello. I have stucture without default constructor.

Code:

---

struct LOGRECORD
{/*.....................*/};
 
class M
{
QVector<LOGRECORD> log;
 
M();
/*.....................*/
};
 
M::M(): log(0, LOGRECORD(/*parameters*/))
{}

---

But compiler had next errors:

What can I correct there errors?

just give it a empty default constructor...
and remove the '0' in log(0,...); make it at least 1

The compiler generates a default constructor for your struct (just like with classes) if it is not written manually.

The problem with your case is that QVector's constructor looks like this:

Code:

---

QVector ( int size, const T & value )

---

It means you have to pass value by reference. The way you do this, will not return a reference.

That's why you need to do

Code:

---

M::M()
{
    LOGRECORD logRec;
    log(1, logRec);
}

by the way you cannot do like
log(1, logRec);
because as far as i remember, c++ dont allow to call the constructor:)

QVector has the following constructor

Code:

---

QVector ( int size )

---

Are you saying that I cannot do this

Code:

---

QVector vec = QVector(10);

---

?????

there is a difference in declaration and defination...
when a constructor is called, the members are defined... the member's constructors are called
automatically... if you want to initialize members via their cotr.. then u have to use initializer list..

Code:

---

myclass
{
   myclass() : v(2)//here it is ok at constructor initializer list
  {
  } 
 myclass()
 {
    v(2);//you cannnot do it this way...
  }
 
  QVector v;
}

---

your code did the same thing... rite??

Code:

---

M::M()
{
    LOGRECORD logRec;
    log(1, logRec);//ERROR
}

---

hope i am clear now!!

Oh, got it what you mean.
