How to initialize structure data type using constructor? ( If you don't understand my question see description.)

#include<iostream> using namespace std; class A { private: struct str { int dd,mm,yy; }; public: A() { } }; int main () { A a; } //Is it possible or not?

Shadow But there is no constructor here? Is it possible to initialize using structure or not?

Right now you only have the inner struct, but not an instance of it you could initialize. The class 'A' needs to store an object of the struct as a member field, since the struct itself is only the blueprint. If you include that, then initializing the object is possible, sure. Here is an example: https://code.sololearn.com/c9XR42pSK5zb/?ref=app

There are two constructors in the outer class in my code, so if that is not what you want, then I don't quite understand your question. It would be helpful to me if you could clarify the following: What do you want to initialize? Where and how do you want to initialize it? What do you want to initialize it with?
