C++ Copy Constructor

En kopikonstruktør er en overbelastet konstruktør brukes til å deklarere og initialisere et objekt fra et annet objekt.

Copy Constructor er av to typer:

    Standard kopikonstruktør:Kompilatoren definerer standard kopikonstruktør. Hvis brukeren ikke definerer noen kopikonstruktør, leverer kompilatoren sin konstruktør.Brukerdefinert konstruktør:Programmereren definerer den brukerdefinerte konstruktøren.
C++ Copy Constructor

Syntaks for brukerdefinert kopikonstruktør:

 Class_name(const class_name &old_object); 

Tenk på følgende situasjon:

tcp og ip-modell
 class A { A(A &x) // copy constructor. { // copyconstructor. } } 

I tilfellet ovenfor, kopikonstruktør kan kalles på følgende måter:

C++ Copy Constructor

La oss se et enkelt eksempel på kopikonstruktøren.

// programmet til kopikonstruktøren.

 #include using namespace std; class A { public: int x; A(int a) // parameterized constructor. { x=a; } A(A &amp;i) // copy constructor { x = i.x; } }; int main() { A a1(20); // Calling the parameterized constructor.

Når Copy Constructor kalles

Copy Constructor kalles i følgende scenarier:

  • Når vi initialiserer objektet med et annet eksisterende objekt av samme klassetype. For eksempel, Student s1 = s2, der Student er klassen.
  • Når objektet av samme klassetype sendes av verdi som et argument.
  • Når funksjonen returnerer objektet av samme klassetype etter verdi.

To typer kopier produseres av konstruktøren:

  • Grunn kopi
  • Dyp kopi

Grunn kopi

  • Standard kopikonstruktør kan bare produsere den grunne kopien.
  • En grunn kopi er definert som prosessen med å lage kopien av et objekt ved å kopiere data fra alle medlemsvariablene slik de er.

La oss forstå dette gjennom et enkelt eksempel:

 #include using namespace std; class Demo { int a; int b; int *p; public: Demo() { p=new int; } void setdata(int x,int y,int z) { a=x; b=y; *p=z; } void showdata() { std::cout &lt;&lt; &apos;value of a is : &apos; &lt; <a<< std::endl; std::cout << \'value of b is : \' < <b<< *p <<*p<< } }; int main() { demo d1; d1.setdata(4,5,7); d2="d1;" d2.showdata(); return 0; pre> <p> <strong>Output:</strong> </p> <pre> value of a is : 4 value of b is : 5 value of *p is : 7 </pre> <img src="//techcodeview.com/img/c-tutorial/75/c-copy-constructor-3.webp" alt="C++ Copy Constructor"> <p>In the above case, a programmer has not defined any constructor, therefore, the statement <strong>Demo d2 = d1;</strong> calls the default constructor defined by the compiler.

C++ Copy Constructor

I tilfellet ovenfor har ikke en programmerer definert noen konstruktør, derfor uttalelsen Demo d2 = d1; kaller standardkonstruktøren definert av kompilatoren. Standardkonstruktøren lager den nøyaktige kopien eller grunne kopien av det eksisterende objektet. Dermed peker pekeren p til begge objektene til samme minneplassering. Derfor, når minnet til et felt frigjøres, frigjøres minnet til et annet felt også automatisk ettersom begge feltene peker til samme minneplassering. Dette problemet løses av brukerdefinert konstruktør som skaper Dyp kopi .

for hver maskinskrift

Dyp kopi

Dypkopi tildeler dynamisk minnet for kopien og kopierer deretter den faktiske verdien, både kilden og kopien har distinkte minneplasseringer. På denne måten er både kilden og kopien forskjellige og vil ikke dele samme minneplassering. Deep copy krever at vi skriver den brukerdefinerte konstruktøren.

La oss forstå dette gjennom et enkelt eksempel.

 #include using namespace std; class Demo { public: int a; int b; int *p; Demo() { p=new int; } Demo(Demo &amp;d) { a = d.a; b = d.b; p = new int; *p = *(d.p); } void setdata(int x,int y,int z) { a=x; b=y; *p=z; } void showdata() { std::cout &lt;&lt; &apos;value of a is : &apos; &lt; <a<< std::endl; std::cout << \'value of b is : \' < <b<< *p <<*p<< } }; int main() { demo d1; d1.setdata(4,5,7); d2="d1;" d2.showdata(); return 0; pre> <p> <strong>Output:</strong> </p> <pre> value of a is : 4 value of b is : 5 value of *p is : 7 </pre> <img src="//techcodeview.com/img/c-tutorial/75/c-copy-constructor-4.webp" alt="C++ Copy Constructor"> <p>In the above case, a programmer has defined its own constructor, therefore the statement <strong>Demo d2 = d1;</strong> calls the copy constructor defined by the user.

C++ Copy Constructor

I tilfellet ovenfor har en programmerer definert sin egen konstruktør, derfor uttalelsen Demo d2 = d1; kaller kopikonstruktøren definert av brukeren. Den lager den nøyaktige kopien av verditypedataene og objektet som pekes av pekeren p. Dypkopi oppretter ikke kopien av en referansetypevariabel.

Forskjeller svart/hvitt Kopikonstruktør og Oppdragsoperator(=)

Kopier Konstruktør Oppdragsoperatør
Det er en overbelastet konstruktør. Det er en bitvis operatør.
Den initialiserer det nye objektet med det eksisterende objektet. Den tildeler verdien av ett objekt til et annet objekt.
Syntaks for kopikonstruktør:
Klassenavn(konst klassenavn &objektnavn)
{
// kroppen til konstruktøren.
}
Syntaks for tildelingsoperator:
Klassenavn a,b;
b = a;
  • De kopi konstruktør påkalles når det nye objektet initialiseres med det eksisterende objektet.
  • Objektet sendes som et argument til funksjonen.
  • Den returnerer objektet.
De oppdragsoperatør påkalles når vi tilordner det eksisterende objektet til et nytt objekt.
Både det eksisterende objektet og det nye objektet deler de forskjellige minneplasseringene. Både det eksisterende objektet og det nye objektet deler samme minneplassering.
Hvis en programmerer ikke definerer kopikonstruktøren, vil kompilatoren automatisk generere den implisitte standardkopikonstruktøren. Hvis vi ikke overbelaster '='-operatoren, vil den bitvise kopien skje.
