I am trying to make matrix from 2D vector, whenever I comment out the lines that call built in move functions I get segmentation fault,if I comment them out everything runs smoothly and I get perfect answer except the ones that have been commented out don;t show up(duh!!) can someone please help me solve this problem

// YOUR NAME HERE
// Test file for assignment 1.

#include <iostream>
#include <utility>
#include <string>

#include "matrix.h"

// It is fine to use namespaces in .cc files.
using namespace std;
using namespace linear_algebra_project;

namespace {

template <typename Object>
void PrintVec(const vector<Object> &a_vector) {
for(int i=0;i<a_vector.size();i++)
cout<< a_vector[i];
}

void TestPart1() {
Matrix<int> a, b;
cout << a.NumRows() << " " << a.NumCols() << endl;

a.ReadMatrix();
cout<<"reading matix a"<<endl;

cout << a << endl;
b.ReadMatrix();
cout<<"reading matix B"<<endl;

cout << b << endl;

a = b;
cout<<"assigning matix b to a"<<endl;

cout << a << endl;


Matrix<int> c = b;
cout<<"creating c and assigning matix b"<<endl;


cout << c << endl;

Matrix<int> d = std::move(c);
cout << d << endl;
cout<<"creating d and copying matix c"<<endl;

// a = std::move(d);
cout<<" copying matix d to a" <<endl;

}

void TestPart2() {
Matrix<string> a, b;
a.ReadMatrix();
cout << a << endl;
b.ReadMatrix();
cout << b << endl;
cout << a + b << endl; // Matrices should have same size.
// The default + operator for strings
// will be used.

Matrix<string> d = a + b;
cout << d <<endl;

const string a_string="hi_there";
// cout << d + a_string << endl;

PrintVec(a[1]); // Should print the first row of a.
PrintVec(b[2]); // Should be print the second row of b.
// Note, that the [] operator should return
// a vector object.
// PrintVec() is a templated function that
// couts the elements of a vector.
}

} // namespace

int main() {
TestPart1();

return 0;

Please show us the code of the matrix class.

Please use code tags (and intuitive indentation) when posting code. See http://www.cplusplus.com/articles/jEywvCM9/


Could you explain to us what the std::move does (as far as you know)?

HI
thanks guys for pointing out indentation, what I copied was supposed to be indented well, I just looked at what I pasted and I sincerely apologize,

@Thomas1965, I am not sure if posting code for the matrix class will help because to be honest I thought there is something wrong with the other code and I looked thoroughly before I posted I could't find anything wrong everything else seem to be working fine, I am still pasting the code here

Where's your "HEY THIS IS MOVE ASSIGNMENT" ...?

Matrix<int> d = std::move(c); ... // a = std::move(d);

...because you're doing that twice. Did you mean Matrix<int> d(std::move(c)); ? Note: [code] tags!

And your implementation of both of these looks quite scary and crash-worthy.

The problem is in your Copy Constructor
Access violation writing location 0xCDCDCDCD
array_[i][j] = rhs[i][j];

Return value missing on Matrix operator+(const Object &an_object)

I just looked at what I pasted and I sincerely apologize

You can edit your posts to add code tags.


Why do you have a mix of raw arrays and std::vectors? Why don't you implement Matrix with std::vector?

Note:

Yes, that's what they all do. Raw could be:

That is simpler to deallocate too:

Whatever implementation you do choose, pack the allocation and deallocation into helper functions, for you do them in multiple places and logical typos can easily creep in.

For example:

* What is so mind-boggling about that?
The rhs IS-A Matrix. You do call Matrix::operator[](int) a total of rhs.num_rows_ * rhs.num_columns_ times.
Each call constructs temporary unnamed std::vector<Object>, whose operator[] you then call. Once.

The first errors you would have avoided by use of initializer list syntax:

I sincerely apologize to all I was way too occupied with school ,events in my life I hope my apologies are accepted and I truly appreciate everyone who is willing to help me out

@Thomas I don't understand what you're saying about copy constructor I believe its alright and I followed your last suggestion still didn't help

@Keskiverto I tried using initializer list at the very beginning for the very first code for some reason it did not work for me I kept on getting errors until I did it the old fashioned way also I noticed the way I populated this object wasn't right from your code thanks

@icy1 not sure if I should report you but please reread the portion of code you copied but looking at your code also made me realize that I had implemented both =, and move constructor and probably the complier is getting confused about which one to use and what's going on

@Keskiverto I am seriously confused about what could be the difference between Matrix(Matrix &&rhs) and Matrix(const Matrix &rhs), the only difference is in const parameter and I don't understand if there could be any difference in the code because of it, and the problem is with move function still
