Initialize array of class objects in constructor of another class

Question

If I have a class:

class A
{
private:
     char z;
     int x;

public:
     A(char inputz, int inputx);
     ~A() {}
}

I want to make an array of A in class B.

class B
{
private:
    A arrayofa[26];

public:
    B();
    ~B() {}
    void updatearray(); // This will fill the array with what is needed.
}


class B
{
    B:B()
    {
        updatearray();
        std::sort( &arrayofa[0], &arrayofa[26], A::descend );
    }
}

How do I explicitly initialize arrayofa in the constructor of B?

Answer 1

The default constructor will be called automatically (for non-POD). If you need a different constructor you're out of luck, but you can use vector instead which will support what you need.
