passing a variable into a function

[dumas9]

This is what I would like to do:
//----Main Cpp file-----

int main()
{
bool myBool = true;

if (someCondition == NULL)
{
myBool = false;
}

//create instance of another class ClassA
ClassA classA(someMap, reportFile);
int someInt = classA.startClassA();

}


//....header file for - ClassA.h
#include <fstream>
......

class ClassA
{
 int aBC;
 int aBCD;
 std::map<std::string, someObj*>&someMap;
 std::ofstream& reportFile;

 public:
 ClassA(std::map<std::string, someObj*>&someMap, std::ofstream& reportFile);
 int startClassA();
 int someFunc();
);
#endif

//....ClassA.cpp file
#include ClassA.h
...
ClassA::ClassA(map<string, someObj*>&someMap, ofstream& file): reportFile(file),
someMapA(someMap), someNo(0)
{
}
int ClassA::startClassA()
{
....
....
if (myBool = false)
{
}
return 0;
}

How do I pass the value of myBool in my main Cpp file into the function startClassA ?

Thanks...

Add a boolean parameter to the method/function and pass a boolean argument to it when it is called.

Here's a simplification:

void f( bool b ) {
    if( b ) { /*...*/ }
}
//...
bool bb = true;
f( bb );

Thanks that works.....

So simple - yet it had me perplexed for some bit of time
