how does a main() in C++ is different from main() in C?
Answer Posted / yj
First of all, make it clear that whenever we run any program the compiler search for the main() function to start execution...
Now,
The programming language C follows top down approach. Means the control moves from top to down. Hence in this we have to give main function above all the other lines of code...
But when you program in C++ which follows bottom up approach i.e., the control moves from bottom to up...For example, when we make a function in C++ we give its definition above main() and when we call that function in main(): as soon as the compiler encounter the "calling line"...the compiler now search for the definition of that function which is above the function main(). Now u visualise that the control is moving from bottom to up.
Hence,
"The function main() in C has to be given at the top. But in C++the function main can be at the bottom also"

Question In a class, there is a reference or pointer of an object of another class embedded, and the memory is either allocated or assigned to the new object created for this class. In the constructor, parameters are passed to initialize the data members and the embedded object reference to get inialized. What measures or design change should be advised for proper destruction and avioding memory leaks, getting pointers dangling for the embedded object memory allocation? Please suggest.

Answer # 1 use copy constructors 0 Shanthila There is something to be taken care in destructor, in copy constructor, suppose the memory is assigned to the embedded member object pointer with the parameter passed value, but if some other objects of different class also are pointing to this memory, then if some one deletes the object then this class member pointer object will become dangling, or if the object is not deleted properly then there will be memory leak. Please suggest the design change required to handle or avoid this situation
