  • C Pointer Question: &(*struct->struct)

    - by NTek
    I have a struct defined with the structure as follows (names are different) struct str1 { int field1; struct str2; } And I have a *str1 in a function. I'd like to get a pointer to str2. So I tried &(str1->str2) and was hoping this would return a pointer to str2. Is this incorrect? It doesn't seem to be working. How would I get a pointer to str2 if given a pointer to str1?

  • Create thread is not accepting the member functon

    - by prabhakaran
    I am trying to create a class for network programming. This will create a general purpose socket with thread. But when I tried to creat the thread using createthread(). The third argument is producing errors. And from the net I came to know that I can't use the member functions as a argument to the createthread(). Is there any thing by which I can achieve this.

  • Pointer arithmetic.

    - by Knowing me knowing you
    Having code: int** a = new int*[2]; a[0] = new int(1); a[1] = new int(2); cout << "a[0] " << a[0] << '\n'; cout << "a[1] " << a[1] << '\n'; cout << "a[2] " << a[2] << '\n'; cout << "a[0] + 1 " << a[0] + 1 << '\n';//WHY THIS ISN'T == a[1] ? cout << "*(a + 1): " << *(a + 1) << '\n'; //WHY THIS IS == a[1] ? cout << "a[0] - a[1] " << static_cast<int>(a[0] - a[1])<< '\n';//WHY THIS IS == 16 not 4? cout << sizeof(int**); Questions are included right next to relevant lines in code.

  • What is the merit of the "function" type (not "pointer to function")

    - by anatolyg
    Reading the C++ Standard, i see that there are "function" types and "pointer to function" types: typedef int func(int); // function typedef int (*pfunc)(int); // pointer to function typedef func* pfunc; // same as above I have never seen the function types used outside of examples (or maybe i didn't recognize their usage?). Some examples: func increase, decrease; // declares two functions int increase(int), decrease(int); // same as above int increase(int x) {return x + 1;} // cannot use the typedef when defining functions int decrease(int x) {return x - 1;} // cannot use the typedef when defining functions struct mystruct { func add, subtract, multiply; // declares three member functions int member; }; int mystruct::add(int x) {return x + member;} // cannot use the typedef int mystruct::subtract(int x) {return x - member;} int main() { func k; // the syntax is correct but the variable k is useless! mystruct myobject; myobject.member = 4; cout << increase(5) << ' ' << decrease(5) << '\n'; // outputs 6 and 4 cout << myobject.add(5) << ' ' << myobject.subtract(5) << '\n'; // 9 and 1 } Seeing that the function types support syntax that doesn't appear in C (declaring member functions), i guess they are not just a part of C baggage that C++ has to support for backward compatibility. So is there any use for function types, other than demonstrating some funky syntax?

  • Forked Function not assigning pointer

    - by Luke Mcneice
    In the code below I have a function int GetTempString(char Query[]); calling it in main works fine. However, when calling the function from a fork the fork hangs (stops running, no errors, no output) before this line: pch = strtok (Query," ,"); the printf shows that the pointer to pch is null. Again this only happens when the fork is executing it. What am I doing doing wrong? int main() { if((Timer =fork())==-1) printf("Timer Fork Failed"); else if(Timer==0) { while(1) { sleep(2); GetTempString("ch 1,2,3,4"); } } else { //CODE GetTempString("ch 1,2,3,4"); } } int GetTempString(char Query[]) { char * pch; printf("DEBUG: '%s'-'%d'\n",Query,pch); pch = strtok (Query," ,");//* PROBLEM HERE* //while loop for strtok... return 1; }

  • How to attach boost::shared_ptr (or another smart pointer) to reference counter of object's parent?

    - by Checkers
    I remember encountering this concept before, but can't find it in Google now. If I have an object of type A, which directly embeds an object of type B: class A { B b; }; How can I have a smart pointer to B, e. g. boost::shared_ptr<B>, but use reference count of A? Assume an instance of A itself is heap-allocated I can safely get its shared count using, say, enable_shared_from_this.

  • c++ File input/output

    - by Myx
    Hi: I am trying to read from a file using fgets and sscanf. In my file, I have characters on each line of the while which I wish to put into a vector. So far, I have the following: FILE *fp; fp = fopen(filename, "r"); if(!fp) { fprintf(stderr, "Unable to open file %s\n", filename); return 0; } // Read file int line_count = 0; char buffer[1024]; while(fgets(buffer, 1023, fp)) { // Increment line counter line_count++; char *bufferp = buffer; ... while(*bufferp != '\n') { char *tmp; if(sscanf(bufferp, "%c", tmp) != 1) { fprintf(stderr, "Syntax error reading axiom on " "line %d in file %s\n", line_count, filename); return 0; } axiom.push_back(tmp); printf("put %s in axiom vector\n", axiom[axiom.size()-1]); // increment buffer pointer bufferp++; } } my axiom vector is defined as vector<char *> axiom;. When I run my program, I get a seg fault. It happens when I do the sscanf. Any suggestions on what I'm doing wrong?

  • Another dynamic memory allocation bug.

    - by m4design
    I'm trying to allocate memory for a multidimensional array (8 rows, 3 columns). Here's the code for the allocation (I'm sure the error is clear for you) char **ptr = (char **) malloc( sizeof(char) * 8); for (i = 0; i < 3; i++) ptr[i] = (char *) malloc( sizeof(char) * 3); The crash happens when I reference this: ptr[3][0]; Unhandled exception at 0x0135144d in xxxx.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation writing location 0xabababab. Are there any recommended references/readings for this kind of subject? Thanks.

  • What does it mean to pass a &variable to a function? E.g., string& insert ( size_t pos1, const strin

    - by Bob Montgomery
    I understand passing a pointer, and returning a pointer: char * strcat ( char * destination, const char * source ); You're passing a variable that contains the address to a char; returning the same. But what does it mean to pass something using the reference operator? Or to return it? string& insert ( size_t pos1, const string& str ); I mean, I understand what actually happens, I just don't understand the notation. Why isn't the notation this instead: string * insert ( size_t pos1, const string * str ); //made up I presume it has something to do with passing/returning the instance of a class, but what? Is this syntax valid; if not why not and if so what does it mean? char & strcat ( char & destination, const char & source ); //made up (all of the function declarations, except the last made-up two, are from http://www.cplusplus.com )

  • C++, function pointer to the template function pointer

    - by Ian
    I am having a pointer to the common static method class MyClass { private: static double ( *pfunction ) ( const Object *, const Object *); ... }; pointing to the static method class SomeClass { public: static double getA ( const Object *o1, const Object *o2); ... }; Initialization: double ( *MyClass::pfunction ) ( const Object *o1, const Object *o2 ) = &SomeClass::getA; I would like to convert this pointer to the static template function pointer: template <class T> static T ( *pfunction ) ( const Object <T> *, const Object <T> *); //Compile error where: class SomeClass { public: template <class T> static double getA ( const Object <T> *o1, const Object <T> *o2); ... }; But there is some error... Thanks for your help...

  • Embedding Python and adding C functions to the interpreter

    - by monoceres
    I'm currently writing an applications that embedds the python interpreter. The idea is to have the program call user specified scripts on certain events in the program. I managed this part but now I want the scripts to be able to call functions in my program. Here's my code so far: #include "python.h" static PyObject* myTest(PyObject* self,PyObject *args) { return Py_BuildValue("s","123456789"); } static PyMethodDef myMethods[] = {{"myTest",myTest},{NULL,NULL}}; int main() { Py_Initialize(); Py_InitModule("PROGRAM",myMethods); PyRun_SimpleString("print PROGRAM.myTest()"); Py_Finalize(); } Thanks!

  • How to determine the end of an integer array when manipulating with integer pointer?

    - by AKN
    Here is the code: int myInt[] ={ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 }; int *myIntPtr = &myInt[0]; while( *myIntPtr != NULL ) { cout<<*myIntPtr<<endl; myIntPtr++; } Output: 12345....<junks>.......... For Character array: (Since we have a NULL character at the end, no problem while iterating) char myChar[] ={ 'A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E', '\0' }; char *myCharPtr = &myChar[0]; while( *myCharPtr != NULL ) { cout<<*myCharPtr<<endl; myCharPtr++; } Output: ABCDE My question is since we say to add NULL character as end of the strings, we rule out such issues! If in case, it is rule to add 0 to the end of integer array, we could have avoided this problem. What say?

  • Objective C LValue required as unary '&' operand

    - by Bob
    Hello! In my code, I get this error when I try to get a pointer to my class property. (I wrote a small *.OBJ file translator in Python, discarding the normals) CODE: //line: line of text const char *str = [line UTF8String]; Point3D *p1, *p2, *p3; p1 = [Point3D makeX:0 Y:0 Z:0]; p2 = [Point3D makeX:0 Y:0 Z:0]; p3 = [Point3D makeX:0 Y:0 Z:0]; sscanf(str, "t %f,%f,%f %f,%f,%f %f,%f,%f",(&[p1 x]),&([p1 y]),&([p1 z]),&([p2 x]),&([p2 y]),&([p2 z]),&([p3 x]),&([p3 y]),&([p3 z])); Triangle3D *tri = [Triangle3D make:p1 p2:p2 p3:p3];

  • Why is comparing against "end()" iterator legal?

    - by sharptooth
    According to C++ standard (3.7.3.2/4) using (not only dereferencing, but also copying, casting, whatever else) an invalid pointer is undefined behavior (in case of doubt also see this question). Now the typical code to traverse an STL containter looks like this: std::vector<int> toTraverse; //populate the vector for( std::vector<int>::iterator it = toTraverse.begin(); it != toTraverse.end(); ++it ) { //process( *it ); } std::vector::end() is an iterator onto the hypothetic element beyond the last element of the containter. There's no element there, therefore using a pointer through that iterator is undefined behavior. Now how does the != end() work then? I mean in order to do the comparison an iterator needs to be constructed wrapping an invalid address and then that invalid address will have to be used in a comparison which again is undefined behavior. Is such comparison legal and why?

  • How to tell where I am in an array with pointer arythmetic?

    - by klez
    In C, I have declared a memory area like this: int cells = 512; int* memory = (int*) malloc ((sizeof (int)) * cells); And I place myself more or less in the middle int* current_cell = memory + ((cells / 2) * sizeof (int)); My question is, while I increment *current_cell, how do I know if I reached the end of the allocated memory area?

  • pointer to a structure in a nested structure

    - by dpka6
    I have a 6 levels of nested structures. I am having problem with last three levels. The program compiles fine but when I run it crashes with Segmentation fault. There is some problem in assignment is what I feel. Kindly point out the error. typedef struct { char addr[6]; int32_t rs; uint16_t ch; uint8_t ap; } C; typedef struct { C *ap_info; } B; typedef struct { union { B wi; } u; } A; function1(char addr , int32_t rs, uint16_t ch, uint8_t ap){ A la; la.u.wi.ap_info->addr[6] = addr; la.u.wi.ap_info->rs = rs; la.u.wi.ap_info->ch = ch; la.u.wi.ap_info->ap = ap; }

  • Pointing to array element

    - by regular
    What I'm trying to achieve is say i have an array, i want to be able to modify a specific array element throughout my code, by pointing at it. for example in C++ i can do this int main(){ int arr [5]= {1,2,3,4,5}; int *c = &arr[3]; cout << arr[3] <<endl; *c = 0; cout << arr[3]<<endl; } I did some googling and there seems to be a way to do it through 'unsafe', but i don't really want to go that route. I guess i could create a variable to store the indexes, but I'm actually dealing with slightly more complexity (a list within a list. so having two index variables seems to add complexity to the code.) C# has a databinding class, so what I'm currently doing is binding the array element to a textbox (that i have hidden) and modifying that textbox whenever i want to modify the specific array element, but that's also not a good solution (since i have a textbox that's not being used for its intended purpose - a bit misleading).
