This problem involved me not knowing enough of C++. I am trying to access a specific value that I had placed in the Heap, but I'm unsure of how to access it. In my problem, I had placed a value in a heap from a data member function in an object, and I am trying to access it in another data member function. Problem is I do not know how, and I had searched examples online, but none were what I needed as they were all in int main() and were not specifically what I needed.
In the first data member function, I declare the value I want to be sent to the Heap; Here's an example of what my first data member function.
void Grid::HeapValues()
{
//Initializing Variable
value = 2; //The type is already declared
//Pointers point a type towards the Heap
int* pValue = new int;
//Initialize an a value of in the Heap
*pValue = value;
}
And in data member function This is what want:
void Grid::AccessHeap()
{
//Extracting heap:
int heap_value = *pValue; //*pValue does not exist in this function
cout << heap_value; //Delays the value 2, which is found
//in the first data member function
}
I feel foolish for asking, but I am unable to find the answers and do not how. Does anyone know how to access a value from the heap in a simple way? And I would need it to be able to access in more then two data member function.
