对象指针与动态对象

对象指针与动态对象

1. Accessing Object Members via Pointers (用指针访问对象成员)

Object pointers can be assigned new object names(对象指针可以指向新的对象名)

Arrow operator -> : Using pointer to access object members (箭头运算符 -> ：用指针访问对象成员)

Circle circle1;
Circle* pCircle = &circle1; 
cout << "The radius is " << (*pCircle).radius    << endl;
cout << "The area is "   << (*pCircle).getArea() << endl;
(*pCircle).radius = 5.5;
cout << "The radius is " << pCircle->radius    << endl;
cout << "The area is "   << pCircle->getArea() << endl;

2. Creating Dynamic Objects on Heap (在堆中创建对象)

Object declared in a function is created in the stack.(在函数中声明的对象都在栈上创建)； When the function returns, the object is destroyed (函数返回，则对象被销毁).

To retain the object, you may create it dynamically on the heap using the new operator. (为保留对象，你可以用new运算符在堆上创建它)

Circle *pCircle1 = new Circle{}; //用无参构造函数创建对象
Circle *pCircle2 = new Circle{5.9}; //用有参构造函数创建对象
//程序结束时，动态对象会被销毁，或者
delete pObject;  //用delete显式销毁
