Can I do the follow?

class A
{
 public:

  ....

 int function1(int *, int);
 int function2(int *, int);

 int (*func_ptr[])(int *, int) =
   {
     function1,
     function2
   }
}

I tried to compile that by the compiler tells me that
1) error: initializer for member func_ptr
2) error: dimension missing for the array A::func_ptr



Please comment.

Thanks

Josh

You can't do this.

You cannot initialize a class member inside the class's declaration.
(Non-static) Members are associated with instances of a class, and can
only be initialized with respect to an instance.  (That's error
message 1 down.)

If you want to initialize a (non-static) member, use one of the class's
constructors.

Also, you are not allowed to have non-static, un-dimensioned arrays in
a class.  See the ARM, section 9.2.  (That's error message 2.)

Good luck!
