headers and static lib: unwanted memory shift ?

[divide]

Hello,

When I compile my static lib I use a full header (with everything needed).

Then, I made a lite header (without private members and unwanted functions, not needed for the use of the static lib in another project).

But I feel like it's causing some trouble: memory seems to shift on some values. Some variables are fine, others have completely weird values (which doesn't happen when using the full header).

How can I solve this without having to include the full headers (which contain functionnalities I don't want to distribute, and implies lot of other dependencies) ?

Thanks

You should keep the header file the same, otherwise the compiler will think that the size of your class is smaller than actual.

If you want to hide some details in the your class from others, you can put those details in another class and declare the instance as a private member.

// In A.h
class B;  // Forward declaration

class A
{
public:
	A(int i=0);
	~A();
	void foo();

private:
	B *b;
};

// In B.h
class B
{
public:
	B(int i);
	void bar();

private:
	int i;
};

// In A.cpp
#include "A.h"
#include "B.h"
A::A(int i):b(new B(i))
{
}

A::~A()
{
	delete b;
}

void A::foo()
{
	b->bar();
}

// In B.cpp
#include "B.h"
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
B::B(int i):i(i)
{
}

void B::bar()
{
	cout << i << endl;
}


//In main.cpp
#include "A..h"
int main(void)
{
 	A a(10);
	a.foo();
}
