Compiler Generated Default Constructor with default keyword in in c++ | C++ 11

Compiler Generated Default Constructor :


In C++ 3.0 :  Compiler results an error if there any other constructor and missing default constructor and you try to invoke default constructor.

class CAT {
   CAT(int age) {}
};

CAT d1;  // Error: compiler will not generate the default constructor


// C++ 11:  With the default keyword, it forced the compiler to generate default constructor even if the is any other constructor.

class CAT {
   CAT(int age);
   CAT() = default;    // Force compiler to generate the default constructor
};

const used with functions

const used with functions : class Dog {    int age;    string name; public:    Dog() { age = 3; name = "dummy"; }         // const parameters and these are overloaded functions    void setAge(const int& a) { age = a; }    void setAge(int& a) { age = a; }         // Const return value    const string& getName() {return name;}         // const function and these are overloaded functions    void printDogName() const { cout << name << "const" << endl; }  // value of name can't be modified    void printDogName() { cout << getName() << " non-const" << endl; } }; int main() {    Dog d;    d.printDogName();        const Dog d2;    d2.printDogName();     }

Returning multiple Values from function C++ 11 vs C++ 17 Returning compound objects Iterating over a compound collection Direct initialization Returning multiple Values from function C++ 11 vs C++ 17 :  C++ 11 (std::tie): std::tuple mytuple() {     char a = 'a';     int i = 123;     bool b = true;     return std::make_tuple(a, i, b);  // packing variable into tuple } To access return value using C++ 11, we would need something like: char a; int i; bool b; std::tie(a, i, b) = mytuple();  // unpacking tuple into variables Where the variables have to be defined before use and the types known in advance. C++ 17 : auto [a, i, b] = mytuple(); Returning compound objects :  This is the easy way to assign the individual parts of a compound type (such as a struct, pair etc) to different variables all in one go – and have the correct types automatically assigned. So let’s have a look at an ...
