hello, been a long time since i've posted
I'm currently working on a game engine with SDL and am trying to figure an access function.

ex:
person RANDOMGUY( 1, "GUY", 0, 0 ); // index, name, x, y
person GENERIC( 0, "GENERIC", 0, 0 );

GENERIC.access( RANDOMGUY ); // access function that sets generic values to that of the other member

//==============================================================
//access function
void person::access( person a ) {
name = a.name;
...
etc...
}

ok that works and is fine but I want it so I can pass an int value

GENERIC.access( 1 ); // like that

thank you very much for your help

So you want to copy the values from one person to another person, by specifying the id of the person to copy from?

If so, I believe your person class would need to have a static array of persons.

Whenever a person is created you place it in the array using its id as the index, and whenever a person is deleted you remove it from the array.

Then when you call access, you can use the array to get the person to copy.
