    copied!<p>I've been working on this project for a while, it's a new language for me but I had a partner with experience who kinda ditched me. Anyways, right now I'm having trouble with getting the text from one object to another. I instantiate an object in the game class, then try to get it and save it to another object in the main class but when I get the object it's empty! I don't know what's going on here and I just can't seem to figure it out.</p> <p>but the part that isn't working is in the display method when I try to draw the questions text:</p> <pre><code>drawText((WinWidth/2)-225, (WinHeight/2) - 90, curQuestion.question.c_str()); </code></pre> <p>curQuestion is created at the top but instantiated in the mouse method:</p> <pre><code>curQuestion = g.getQuestion(col,row); </code></pre> <p>and here's the game class (which is in Cc.h)</p> <pre><code>class Game { public: Game(bool); void initQuestions(); Question getQuestion(int, int); string getQuestionText(int, int); private: Question questions[5][5]; }; Game::Game(bool m) { mp = m; initQuestions(); } void Game::initQuestions() { bool hasDouble = false; srand( time(NULL)); int blarg = rand() % 25 + 1; fstream questionFile; questionFile.open("questions.txt", ifstream::in); int cur = 0; for(int c = 0; c &lt; 5; c++) { for(int r = 0; r &lt; 5; r++) { char * q = new char[256]; char * a = new char[256]; questionFile.getline(q,256); questionFile.getline(a,256); questions[c][r] = Question(c,r, false, q, a); cout &lt;&lt; questions[c][r].question.c_str() &lt;&lt; questions[c][r].answer.c_str(); } } questionFile.close(); } Question Game::getQuestion(int c, int r) { return questions[c][r]; } string Game::getQuestionText(int c, int r) { return questions[c][r].question; } </code></pre> <p>Note: the cout called in the game method does return exactly what it should!</p> <p>Question class:</p> <pre><code>class Question { public: int col; int row; bool dailyDouble; string question; string answer; int value; Question(); Question(int, int, bool, string, string); bool checkAnswer(string); string getQuestion(); }; Question::Question() { } Question::Question(int c, int r, bool d,string q, string a) { col = c; row = r; dailyDouble = d; question = q, answer = a; cout &lt;&lt; "TEST&gt; Q: " &lt;&lt; question &lt;&lt; ", A: " &lt;&lt; answer &lt;&lt; endl; if(d) value = r * 200 * 2; else value = r * 200; } bool Question::checkAnswer(string answer) { if(answer.find("What is") &amp;&amp; answer.find(answer)) return true; return false; } string Question::getQuestion() { return question; } </code></pre> <p>I really can't understand what's going wrong here, any help is greatly appreciated. I hope that once I figure out what's going wrong here I'll be able to finish on my own!</p>
