Adding an object to this tree.

[Bdanielz]

Hello all

Disclaimer: this is homework
Justification: it is already been submitted :( / I want to know what I am doing wrong / I am not asking anyone to do my homework. I want to do it still!!

I am in the process of building a general tree.
I am stuck on adding an object through to my tree

The only specification I need to follow is listed in the main class.
There are no other specif actions that I must follow, so please feel free to call me out on any major flaws. If It takes a major rewrite I am open to that as well...

Small tangent() {

At this point my code is little all over the place as so as I am. As most of you can relate to coding for hours and just then unraveling to guessing a checking. I have tried to keep things semi organized but alas coding / troubleshooting unit ll 5 am yesterday and back at it today there might be... I have no idea where I was going to take this...

well at lease excuse me using std::string and char* for the same constructors: I was just trying things...

return to_thread
}


listed below is my code.

If you need to ask me any questions feel free to ask. I would be happy to clarify!

Cheers!

you forgot SkillTree.h

void SkillTree::setelement (Skill element)
{
  setelement (element); //infinite recursion
}

Yes I see what you are saying. I am not sure how to handel the set element function however.

in pesudo... I would see it working this way.

setelement (Skill element)
{
skilltree local_object_ptr = get_cur_tree_object()
local_object_ptr->data = element; 
}

I am not sure how to make the above "idea" work
I think my confusion stems from the below and

  typedef struct GTREE_NODE
  {

    SkillTree *leftchild_;
    SkillTree *rightchild_;
    Skill data;
    std::string title;
    std::ostream *SkillTree_out;

    GTREE_NODE *first_childptr;
    GTREE_NODE *sibling_listptr;

  } *GTREE_NODE_PTR;

I am not sure how to access and set the data element object of in each instance of the skilltree class.

does that make sense?
