C++ Array of pointers to an abstract class
$begingroup$
I have this homework for my OOP class which I hope someone can check for me:
Make an abstract class ElementOnMap which contains a unique id (int), a type (char array) and a static var #ofElements. Than create a class Map with dimensions of the map and a matrix of pointers to objects of class Element. It should have the following functions:
...
-a copy constructor!
...
Than make a sub class Island and a sub class Ship which inherit the class Element, which redefine the abstract method from Element, ...
So this is Element.h
class Element
{
protected:
static int numEl;
int id;
char type[16];
public:
char * type()
{
char *p = type;
return p;
}
virtual void print() = 0;
};
class Island :public Element
{
char name[16];
int numPeople;
public:
Island();
Island(char*, int);
void print();
};
This is my Element.cpp:
#include"Element.h"
#include<string>
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
int Element::numEl = 0;
Island::Island()
{
id = numEl;
numEl++;
}
Island::Island(char* naz, int a) :numPeople(a)
{
strcpy_s(name, naz);
type[0] = 'I';
type[1] = 's';
type[2] = 'l';
type[3] = 'a';
type[4] = 'n';
type[5] = 'd';
type[6] = '';
id = numEl;
numEl++;
}
void Island::print()
{
cout << "ID elementa: " << id << "Tip elementa: " << type;
cout << "Ime ostrva: " << name << "Broj stanovnika: " << numPeople << endl;
}
and finally, Map.h:
class Mapa
{
int m, n;
Element ***Matrix;
public:
Mapa(int, int);
Mapa(const Mapa &M);
~Mapa();
};
Mapa::Mapa(int a, int b):m(a), n(b)
{
Matrix = new Element**[m];
for (int i = 0; i < m; i++)
Matrix[i] = new Element*[n];
}
Mapa::Mapa(const Mapa & M)
{
this->m = M.m;
this->n = M.n;
Matrix = new Element**[m];
for (int i = 0; i < m; i++)
Matrix[i] = new Element*[n];
for (int i = 0; i < m; i++)
for (int j = 0; j < n; j++)
{
*Matrix[i][j] = *(M.Matrix[i][j]);
}
}
Mapa::~Mapa()
{
delete Matrix;
}
Am I declaring the pointer matrix correctly and is my copy constructor any good? I get that i need a deep copy cause i'm working with pointers, but this pointer inception is really making me feel dumb. Also, do i need a constructor for the abstract Element class, since it cant be instantiated?
