In C++, the term "active class" typically refers to a class that is part of a design pattern or system where its instances are actively involved in the program's execution, often managing their own state and behavior. This concept can be seen in scenarios like active objects, where each object has its own thread of control. However, the term is not standard in C++ terminology, so its exact meaning may vary depending on the context in which it is used.
s.
Sure.
Passive objects encapsulate state and operations, whereas active objects also encapsulate a process. Standard C++ does not support active objects.
You have a class(i.g. MyClass): class MyClass{ public: int MyData; }; And then you use the class like this: int main(){ MyClass MyObject; MyObject.MyData=7; }
C is not an object-oriented programming language and therefore has no objects as such. However, the term is often used in a more general sense to mean any instance of an user-defined or primitive variable/constant. In C++, the term is used specifically to mean any instance of a class.
No.
An object in C++ is an instance of a C++ class.
B. Class.
s.
In C++, methods are simply class member functions.
Sure.
class class_name { private: data_members; public: member_functions; };
Passive objects encapsulate state and operations, whereas active objects also encapsulate a process. Standard C++ does not support active objects.
