c++11 - Which type to declare to avoid copy and make sure returned value is moved -

-

suppose that

  • i have function a f();
  • i want initialize local variable a return value of f;
  • i don't want rely on rvo;

what best option (and why) avoid return value of f being copied when

  1. a may have modified
  2. i know a not modified

options:

a) a = f(); b) a&& = f(); c) const a& = f(); d) const a&& = f();

edit:

i say:

  1. b)
  2. c)

because both use references , avoid copy (which avoided rvo well, not guaranteed). how come see option a) suggested of time?

i guess heart of question is: a) has same effect c), why not use c) instead of a), make things explicit , independent on compiler?

so how come see option a) suggested of time?

because 4 options return value exact same way. thing changes way bind variable returned temporary.

  • a) declares variable a of type a , move-initializes temporary. not assignment, initialization. move constructor elided popular compiler, provided don't explicitly disallow it, means program ensure storage reserved return value storage a variable.
  • c) declares variable a const-reference temporary, extending lifetime of temporary. means temporary return value gets storage, , variable a refer it. compiler, knowing statically reference points returned value, generate same code a).
  • b) , d), not sure they're for. (and if works) not take rvalue reference @ point. if need one, explicitly std::move variable later.

now :

a may have modified

if a may modified, use :

auto = f();

i know not modified

if know a not modified, use :

const auto = f();

the use of auto prevent type mismatch. (and such, implicit conversion a if f happens not return type a after all. oh, maintainers...)

c++ - Linked List error when inserting for the last time -

-
so have part of code here this loop 5 times (max = 5) insert word link list. for ( int = 0 ; < max ; i++ ) { string alphabet = g->returnalphabets(); l[i]->addwords(alphabet[i]); } and have insert word part here string line; fstream myfile ("words.txt"); while (!myfile.eof()) { getline(myfile,line); if ( alphabet == line[0] ) { listnode *newnode = new listnode; if ( head == null ) { newnode->item = alphabet; newnode->next = null; head = newnode; } else { newnode->item = line; prev = cur; prev->next = newnode; } cur = newnode; } } myfile.close(); my problem gives me error on last loop. meaning on max = 4, insert node. rest of loop fine. when decrease max 4 meaning loop 4 times, program error-free when program loops 5 times gives error. anyone can poin...
