Hi, Just a quick question.

I've written some code that returns a custom class Command, and the code I've written seems to work fine. I was wondering if there are any reasons that I shouldn't be doing it this way. It's something like this:

Command Behavior::getCommand ()
{
  char input = 'x';

  return Command (input, -1, -1);
}

Anyway, I read that constructors aren't meant to have a return value, but this works in g++.

Thanks for any advice,

Rhys
