I'm guessing I might have to use pointers, but haven't gone in depth too much on them in class yet to try and implement them in my program. I have this so far, the printing function is towards the middle of the program. I'm not quite sure on how to print out the elements from the vector as my approach didn't work.
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
class rolodex
{
string name;
string street, town, state;
string zip;
string phone;
vector <rolodex> entries;
public:
rolodex();
void getmenu();
void add_entry();
void set_name();
void set_address();
void set_phone();
void printinfo();
};
rolodex :: rolodex() : name(""), street(""), town(""), state(""), zip(""),
phone(""), entries()
{
}
void rolodex :: getmenu()
{
cout << "\n\n1)Add Entry";
cout << "\n5)Print All Entries";
cout << "\n6)Exit" << endl;
}
void rolodex :: add_entry()
{
rolodex temp;
cout << "\n\nEnter Name: ";
temp.set_name();
temp.set_address();
cout << "\n\nEnter Your Phone Number: ";
temp.set_phone();
entries.push_back(temp);
}
void rolodex :: set_name()
{
cin.ignore();
getline(cin, name);
}
void rolodex :: set_address()
{
cout << "\n\nNow we'll enter address information.";
cout << "\n\nStreet: ";
getline(cin, street);
cout << "\n\nTown: ";
getline(cin, town);
cout << "\n\nState: ";
getline(cin, state);
cout << "\n\nZip: ";
getline(cin, zip);
}
void rolodex :: set_phone()
{
getline(cin, phone);
}
void rolodex :: printinfo()
{
for(unsigned int i = 0; i < entries.size(); i++)
{
cout << entries[i] << endl; //This is where I'm stuck since I've only
//worked with vectors of non-object data
//type
}
}
int main()
{
rolodex person, menu;
short choice;
bool done = false;
do
{
menu.getmenu();
cout << "\n\nEnter a choice: ";
cin >> choice;
switch(choice)
{
case 1:
person.add_entry();
break;
case 5:
person.printinfo();
break;
case 6:
done = true;
break;
default:
cout << "\n\nInvalid Entry." << endl << endl;
}
} while(!done && isdigit(choice));
return 0;
}
