Constructors make possible the initialization of
LINT
objects among
themselvesaswellas
LINT
objects with standard types, constants, and character
strings, as the following examples demonstrate:
LINT a;
LINT one (1);
int i = 2147483647;
LINT b (i);
LINT c (one);
LINT d ("0x123456789abcdef0");
The constructor functions are called explicitly to generate objects of type
LINT
from the specified arguments. The
LINT
constructor, which, for example, changes
unsigned long
values into
LINT
objects, is embodied in the following function:
