What does this symbol mean:?

And another question. How do you put smilies(faces) in the message which you post in this forum?

its is used in classes for constructors and deconstructors...to construct one you would do this:

PHP Code:

---

class MAN
{
   int addAge(int age);
};

man::addAge
{
   ///do all the function stuff here
} 


---

and smilies are in the faq :)

Actually Steve, it's for accessing a member in a class.

Code:

---

cout.setf(ios::fixed);

---

In the above code, ios is the class, and you are accessing the fixed constant of it.

Here is another example:

Code:

---

class myclass {
myclass(); //constructor
~myclass(); //destructor
int dostuff(); //function
};

myclass::myclass()
{
}

myclass::~myclass()
{
}

int myclass::dostuff()
{
return(5);
}

Damn....the one question I can answer I get wrong...sorry abdul :rolleyes:

It's called the Scope Resolution Operator. It covers a lot more than just classes -- it also covers structs and namespaces. For example, if you have a namespace and want to call a global function with the same name as one of yours, you need it like this:

Code:

---

namespace parksie {
    void Sleep(int param) {
        ::Sleep(6000);
    }
};
