Compile

g++ -g -std=c++2a -I. *.cpp ./model/*.cpp -o h1 -luuid -lpthread -ljsoncpp

 

 

 

Run

 

 

If I remove the static modifier of sum method as below.

//model/util.h

#pragma once
#ifndef __util_h__
#define __util_h__
#include <chrono>
#include <ctime>
#include <fstream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>
#include <string.h>
#include <thread>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <uuid/uuid.h>
#include <vector>
#include <jsoncpp/json/json.h> 

using namespace std;

class util
{
public: 
    int sum(int x,int y);
    static int prod(int x,int y);
    int pass_func_as_argu(int x,int y,int(*func)(int,int));
    void invoke_func_argv(int x,int y);
};
#endif

Then compile as below g++ command while it failed after I remove the static modifier of sum method declaration

 

 And reported below error

error: ISO C++ forbids taking the address of an unqualified or parenthesized non-static member function to form a pointer to member function. Say ‘&util::sum’ [-fpermissive]
