Resetting a class

[JohnSmith70]

Lets say I have a class, which creates object and variables. In main how do I reset that class to null, as if it was (the class run for the first time) first run, but without exitting the main?

I ve noticed that when I write an if statement, because I only want it it reset "if asked for a reset". It doesn't work. But without the if statement it works. Why is that? How do make it work? I want to make the declaration inside the if block to be global. How do I do that?

if you declare anything inside an if block the variable will run out of scope i.e end to exist when you are nolonger inside the if block, you need to put the declaration outside the if block

if I put it outside the block, it would reset it even if I don't want it to.

how about this (I don't know how you code looks)

SomeClass MyClass;
MyClass.someIntMember = 5;
if(wantToReset)
do the resetting

You can declare all its objects and variables to null; what about this?

If the class has at least a constructor and a destructor there should be no need for resetting - just call the required member function again and it should behave as for the first run.
