I'm trying to create an array of objects in c++.

I'm creating a employee object, from my constructor in my company class here:

employee obj(int tempIdNum, double tempBase, double tempSales, double tempRate);

emp[tempcount]=obj;  (this doesn't work?)

Emp is the name of the array which is defined here, located in my company h file.

 Employee emp[4]; 

more code:

Company::Company(string name, string fileName){ string str; int tempcount; int tempIdnum; double tempBase; double tempSales; double tempRate; double num; double arr[16];

this->name=name;

//Commission temp;

ifstream readFile;
readFile.open("fileName");

int inc=0;
while(tempcount<4){
    for(int i=0+inc; i<4+inc; i++){
        readFile>>num;
        arr[i-inc]=num;
    }
    tempIdnum=(int)(arr[0]);
    tempBase=arr[1];
    tempSales=arr[2];
    tempRate=arr[3];

   Employee obj(int tempIdNum, double tempBase, double tempSales, double tempRate);

    emp[tempcount]=obj;
    inc+=4;
    tempcount++;   

}
readFile.close();

}

Here is some more from my h file

#include <string>

include "Commission.h"

using namespace std;

ifndef Company_H

define Company_H

class Company{ private: string name; //name of company Employee emp[4]; //array of payrool info about 4 commission employees int numEmp; //number of employees

public:
    Company();
    Company(string name, string fileName);
    ~Company();
    string getName();
    Commission getEmployee(int element);
    int getNumEmp();

};

endif

enter code here

Does not compile: 46 E:\exercise2\Company.cpp no match for 'operator=' in '((Company*)this)->Company::emp[tempcount] = obj'
