Question

I want to create an array to store actual objects and not pointers to objects in C++?

Can somebody explain how do I do that? is it better to use vectors or just directly like:

Student s [10];

OR

Student s [10][];

Answer 1

Using:

Student s [10];

Creates an array of 10 Student instances.

I think that Student s [10][]; is invalid.

But with C++ I’d not use C type arrays, it’s better to use classes like std::vector or C++0x std::array which may not be available with not up-to date standard libraries/compilers.

Example for the above with a std::vector

#include <vector>

...

std::vector<Student> students(10);

And with an std::array:

#include <array>

...

std::array<Student, 10> students;
