Destructors

Now that we understand constructors we can move onto destructors.

A Class destructor is just the opposite of a constructor, the destructor “destroys” the object and releases all memory allocated for the object. Like the constructor, the default destructor is always called and contains no parameters. The syntax of a destructor is:

~ClassName();

The following would be an example of the default Employee destructor:

~Employee(); //destructor

The destructor can not take any parameters nor can it return a value. It is always a good idea to write the default constructor if you defined your own constructor to make the code cleaner. Please Rate this Code:
