desturctor is to destory objects.

this is denoted by '~'.

for eg:

class  alpha

{

public:

read(int);

disp();

~alpha();

};

void alpha::read()

{

cout<<"Enter i":

cin>>i;

}

void alpha::~alpha(int i)

{

i--;

cout<<i;

}

Destructor is a special member function of a class, which is called automatically by the compiler when the object is getting destroyed. In general we write the code here to cleanup the resources that are used by the class, like delete the memory, close the file handles, stop the thread etc, that is depending on the class that you are desiging.
