Dynamic 2 dimensional array problem with pointers

3 New Member
Hi there

I have a class within which i assign 2 dimension dynamic array of pointers which points to variable inside these class (variable is of type other class).
Now to get into that variable I have to use ptr-> but my ptrtoobj[i][j] is pointer to pointer and left hand side of -> has to be pointer to class/structure
when I use ptrtoobj[i][j]->class_variab le I'm getting an error of
type 'cell' does not have an overloaded member 'operator ->' see declaration of 'cell'

Any idea for overloaded function operator-> or to solve these
I know that 1 dimension array would be solution but 2 is easier for calculations for me
Here is code
//constructor and destructor works fine I have tested that
class Game
{
public:
void display();
Game();
Game(int);
virtual ~Game();

private:
int size;
cell **ptrtoobj;
};

Game::Game(int s)
{
size=s;
ptrtoobj=new cell*[size];
for (int i=0; i<size; i++)
{
ptrtoobj[i]= new cell[size];
}

}

Game::~Game()
{
for (int i =0; i<size; i++)
{
delete[] ptrtoobj[i];
}
delete[] ptrtoobj;
}

I sorry for language but English isn't my native language :-)

To anyone that is more intelligent than me or just knows better, I could use some help. I am attemping to write a simple program that will created a random maze that will only require for information the cell length and height of the maze.

I'm sure I saw this mentioned somewhere, but I can't find it. How can I dynamically allocate a multi-dimensional array in C++? My next question, if this gets figured out, is if I should use the delete command to remove it, or would that be delete ? -- "What are the possibilities of small but movable machines? They may or may not be useful, but they surely would be fun to make."

I used to work with C and have a set of libraries which allocate multi-dimensional arrays(2 and 3) with single malloc call. data_type **myarray = (data_type**)malloc(widht*height*sizeof(data_type)+ height* sizeof(data_type*)); //allocate individual addresses for row pointers.

All this time I was under the illusion that I understand the concept of multi-dimensional arrays well ---- however the following code snippet belies my understanding. I had assumed all along that a declaration like: int intArray means that there is an array of pointers to int with a size of 5, each of whose elements is an array of int with a size of 3. This definition seemed intuitive to me since a declaration like

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
