C++ Copy Constructor

Konstruktor kopiranja je preobremenjeni konstruktor, ki se uporablja za deklaracijo in inicializacijo objekta iz drugega objekta.

Copy Constructor je dveh vrst:

    Privzeti konstruktor kopiranja:Prevajalnik definira privzeti konstruktor kopiranja. Če uporabnik ne definira nobenega konstruktorja kopiranja, prevajalnik priskrbi svojega konstruktorja.Uporabniško določen konstruktor:Programer definira uporabniško definiran konstruktor.
C++ Copy Constructor

Sintaksa uporabniško definiranega konstruktorja kopiranja:

 Class_name(const class_name &old_object); 

Razmislite o naslednji situaciji:

niz v matriki v c
 class A { A(A &x) // copy constructor. { // copyconstructor. } } 

V zgornjem primeru, Konstruktor kopiranja je mogoče poklicati na naslednje načine:

C++ Copy Constructor

Oglejmo si preprost primer konstruktorja kopiranja.

// program konstruktorja kopije.

 #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.

Ko se pokliče Copy Constructor

Konstruktor kopiranja se kliče v naslednjih scenarijih:

blokirane številke
  • Ko inicializiramo objekt z drugim obstoječim objektom iste vrste razreda. Na primer, študent s1 = s2, kjer je študent razred.
  • Ko je predmet iste vrste razreda posredovan z vrednostjo kot argument.
  • Ko funkcija vrne objekt iste vrste razreda po vrednosti.

Konstruktor izdela dve vrsti kopij:

  • Plitka kopija
  • Globoka kopija

Plitka kopija

  • Privzeti konstruktor kopij lahko izdela samo plitvo kopijo.
  • Plitka kopija je definirana kot postopek ustvarjanja kopije predmeta s kopiranjem podatkov vseh spremenljivk člana, kakršni so.

Razumejmo to s preprostim primerom:

 #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

V zgornjem primeru programer ni definiral nobenega konstruktorja, torej stavka Demo d2 = d1; pokliče privzeti konstruktor, ki ga definira prevajalnik. Privzeti konstruktor ustvari natančno kopijo ali plitvo kopijo obstoječega predmeta. Tako kazalec p obeh objektov kaže na isto pomnilniško lokacijo. Zato se ob sprostitvi pomnilnika polja samodejno sprosti tudi pomnilnik drugega polja, saj obe polji kažeta na isto pomnilniško lokacijo. To težavo rešuje uporabniško definiran konstruktor ki ustvarja Globoka kopija .

Globoka kopija

Globoka kopija dinamično dodeli pomnilnik za kopijo in nato kopira dejansko vrednost, tako izvor kot kopija imata različni pomnilniški lokaciji. Na ta način sta izvor in kopija različna in ne bosta delila iste pomnilniške lokacije. Globoka kopija zahteva, da napišemo uporabniško definiran konstruktor.

Razumejmo to s preprostim primerom.

 #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

V zgornjem primeru je programer definiral lastnega konstruktorja, torej stavek Demo d2 = d1; pokliče konstruktor kopiranja, ki ga določi uporabnik. Ustvari natančno kopijo podatkov o tipih vrednosti in objekta, na katerega kaže kazalec p. Globoka kopija ne ustvari kopije spremenljivke referenčnega tipa.

Razlike črno/b Konstruktor kopiranja in operator dodelitve (=)

Konstruktor Kopiraj Operater dodelitve
Je preobremenjen konstruktor. Je bitni operater.
Inicializira nov objekt z obstoječim objektom. Vrednost enega predmeta dodeli drugemu objektu.
Sintaksa konstruktorja kopiranja:
Ime_razreda (const ime_razreda &ime_objekta)
{
// telo konstruktorja.
}
Sintaksa operatorja dodelitve:
Ime_razreda a,b;
b = a;
  • The konstruktor kopiranja se prikliče, ko je nov objekt inicializiran z obstoječim objektom.
  • Objekt je posredovan kot argument funkciji.
  • Vrne predmet.
The operater dodelitve se prikliče, ko obstoječi objekt dodelimo novemu objektu.
Tako obstoječi objekt kot novi objekt si delita različni pomnilniški lokaciji. Tako obstoječi objekt kot novi objekt si delita isto pomnilniško lokacijo.
Če programer ne definira konstruktorja kopiranja, bo prevajalnik samodejno ustvaril implicitni privzeti konstruktor kopiranja. Če ne preobremenimo operatorja '=', bo prišlo do bitnega kopiranja.
