• Declaring pointers; asterisk on the left or right of the space between the type and name?

  - by GenTiradentes

  I've seen mixed versions of this in a lot of code. (This applies to C and C++, by the way.) People seem to declare pointers in one of two ways, and I have no idea which one is correct, of if it even matters. The first way it to put the asterisk adjacent the type name, like so: someType* somePtr; The second way is to put the asterisk adjacent the name of the variable, like so: someType *somePtr; This has been driving me nuts for some time now. Is there any standard way of declaring pointers? Does it even matter how pointers are declared? I've used both declarations before, and I know that the compiler doesn't care which way it is. However, the fact that I've seen pointers declared in two different ways leads me to believe that there's a reason behind it. I'm curious if either method is more readable or logical in some way that I'm missing.

• Where can I get the CUR files for the Firefox cursor values?

  - by harpo

  I'm using some of Firefox's specially-defined values for cursor, in particular -moz-zoom-in -moz-zoom-out -moz-grab -moz-grabbing In order to display these on other browsers, I'd like to deploy the equivalent CUR files — but I can't seem to find these online, or in my copy of Firefox. Anyone know where these are available?

• how to write a constructor...

  - by Nima

  is that correct to write a constructor like this? class A { A::A(const A& a) { .... } }; if yes, then is it correct to invoke it like this: A* other; ... A* instance = new A(*(other)); if not, what do you suggest? Thanks

• how to use iterator in c++?

  - by tsubasa

  I'm trying to calculate distance between 2 points. The 2 points I stored in a vector in c++: (0,0) and (1,1). I'm supposed to get results as 0 1.4 1.4 0 but the actual result that I got is 0 1 -1 0 I think there's something wrong with the way I use iterator in vector. Could somebody help? I posted the code below. typedef struct point { float x; float y; } point; float distance(point *p1, point *p2) { return sqrt((p1->x - p2->x)*(p1->x - p2->x) + (p1->y - p2->y)*(p1->y - p2->y)); } int main() { vector <point> po; point p1; p1.x=0; p1.y=0; point p2; p2.x=1; p2.y=1; po.push_back(p1); po.push_back(p2); vector <point>::iterator ii; vector <point>::iterator jj; for (ii=po.begin(); ii!=po.end(); ii++) { for (jj=po.begin(); jj!=po.end(); jj++) { cout<<distance(ii,jj)<<" "; } } return 0; }

• Silverlight: Is it possible to use custom mouse cursors/pointers?

  - by Mark Redman

  I have just found this page indicating the support for Silverlight mouse cursors: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.input.cursor(VS.95).aspx Is that it!!! :-| what are they thinking, at least there is stylish looking Eraser! Is there aany other way to use custom cursors? How efficient/usable would it be to hide the cursor and show a png instead?

• C++ using cdb_read returns extra characters on some reads

  - by Moe Be

  Hi All, I am using the following function to loop through a couple of open CDB hash tables. Sometimes the value for a given key is returned along with an additional character (specifically a CTRL-P (a DLE character/0x16/0o020)). I have checked the cdb key/value pairs with a couple of different utilities and none of them show any additional characters appended to the values. I get the character if I use cdb_read() or cdb_getdata() (the commented out code below). If I had to guess I would say I am doing something wrong with the buffer I create to get the result from the cdb functions. Any advice or assistance is greatly appreciated. char* HashReducer::getValueFromDb(const string &id, vector <struct cdb *> &myHashFiles) { unsigned char hex_value[BUFSIZ]; size_t hex_len; //construct a real hex (not ascii-hex) value to use for database lookups atoh(id,hex_value,&hex_len); char *value = NULL; vector <struct cdb *>::iterator my_iter = myHashFiles.begin(); vector <struct cdb *>::iterator my_end = myHashFiles.end(); try { //while there are more databases to search and we have not found a match for(; my_iter != my_end && !value ; my_iter++) { //cerr << "\n looking for this MD5:" << id << " hex(" << hex_value << ") \n"; if (cdb_find(*my_iter, hex_value, hex_len)){ //cerr << "\n\nI found the key " << id << " and it is " << cdb_datalen(*my_iter) << " long\n\n"; value = (char *)malloc(cdb_datalen(*my_iter)); cdb_read(*my_iter,value,cdb_datalen(*my_iter),cdb_datapos(*my_iter)); //value = (char *)cdb_getdata(*my_iter); //cerr << "\n\nThe value is:" << value << " len is:" << strlen(value)<< "\n\n"; }; } } catch (...){} return value; }

• JNA problem with char** (in dll)

  - by underline

  Hi, ok it is 'easy' to make jna wrapper solution for mapping exported functions within dll using jna: long f1(int x), just int long f2(char* y), just char[] but how to deal with long f3(char** z) ? I need f3's result(long) as well as z value on java side. Please don't say cpp code should be rewritten to avoid this:-)

• Reusing a NSString variable - does it cause a memory leak?

  - by Chris S

  Coming from a .NET background I'm use to reusing string variables for storage, so is the code below likely to cause a memory leak? The code is targeting OS X on the iphone/itouch so no automatic GC. -(NSString*) stringExample { NSString *result = @"example"; result = [result stringByAppendingString:@" test"]; // where does "example" go? return result; } What confuses me is an NSStrings are immutable, but you can reuse an 'immutable' variable with no problem.

• C++: Cannot convert from foo& to foo*

  - by Rosarch

  I have a method: odp(foo& bar); I'm trying to call it: foo baz; odp(&baz); I get a compiler error: error C2664: "odp" cannot convert parameter 1 from 'foo *' to 'foo &' What am I doing wrong? Aren't I passing in a reference to baz? UPDATE: Perhaps I have a misconception about the relationship between pointers and references. I thought that they were the same, except references couldn't be null. Is that incorrect?

• C++: ptr->hello(); /* VERSUS */ (*ptr).hello();

  - by Joey

  i was learning about c++ pointers... so the "-" operator seemed strange to me... instead of ptr-hello(); one could write (*ptr).hello(); because it also seems to work, so i thought the former is just a more convenient way is that the case or is there any difference?

• What does the C standard say about pointers to structs and their first member?

  - by James Morris

  Consider the following two struct: struct a { int a; }; struct b { struct a a_struct; int b; }; the following instantiation of struct b: struct b b_struct; and this condition: if (&b_struct == (struct b*)&b_struct.a_struct) printf("Yes\n"); Does the C standard mandate this to always evaluate true?

• Basic help needed with pointers

  - by sbsp

  Hi, i asked some time ago on an account i cant remember how to manipulate basic pointers and someone gave me a really good demo for example char *ptr = hello (hello = a char array) so now *ptr is pointing at h ptr++ = moves the ptr to point at the next element, to get its value i do *ptr and that gives me e ok so far i hope :D but now i need to manipulate a char **ptr and was wondering how i do this in a way that mimmicks the effects of a 2d array? some basic tips would be much appreciated as i need to do an assignment that has a **ptr to immitate a 2d array and without knowing how it does this first means i cant even solve it on paper (for example, how do you dereference a **ptr, how do you get [x][y] values etc) thanks

• Building 16 bit os - character array not working

  - by brainbarshan

  Hi. I am building a 16 bit operating system. But character array does not seem to work. Here is my example kernel code: asm(".code16gcc\n"); void putchar(char); int main() { char *str = "hello"; putchar('A'); if(str[0]== 'h') putchar('h'); return 0; } void putchar(char val) { asm("movb %0, %%al\n" "movb $0x0E, %%ah\n" "int $0x10\n" : :"m"(val) ) ; } It prints: A that means putchar function is working properly but if(str[0]== 'h') putchar('h'); is not working. I am compiling it by: gcc -fno-toplevel-reorder -nostdinc -fno-builtin -I./include -c -o ./bin/kernel.o ./source/kernel.c ld -Ttext=0x9000 -o ./bin/kernel.bin ./bin/kernel.o -e 0x0 What should I do?

• How do I properly turn a const char* returned from a function into a const char** in C?

  - by spirulence

  In short, I would like to do this: const char **stringPtr = &getString(); However, I understand that you can't & on rvalues. So I'm stuck with this: const char *string = getString(); const char **stringPtr = &string; I can live with two lines. Am I introducing problems with this hack? I should have no fear of passing stringPtr out of the function it is declared in, right?

• Cant free memory.

  - by atch

  In code: int a[3][4] = {1,2,3,4, 5,6,7,8, 9,10,11,12}; template<class T, int row, int col> void invert(T a[row][col]) { T* columns = new T[col]; T* const free_me = columns; for (int i = 0; i < col; ++i) { for (int j = 0; j < row; ++j) { *columns = a[j][i]; ++columns;//SOMETIMES VALUE IS 0 } } delete[] free_me;//I'M GETTING ERROR OF HEAP ABUSE IN THIS LINE } int main(int argc, char* argv[]) { invert<int,3,4>(a); } I've observed that while iterating, value of variable columns equals zero and I think thats the problem. Thanks for your help.

It tried: if ( tmp->tableA == NULL ). I get "error: invalid operands to binary =="

• Using C++ is a Linked-List implementation without using pointers possible or not?

  - by sonicoder

  My question is very simply, can one using C++, implment a link-list data structure without using pointers (next nodes)? To further qualify my question, I'm mean can one create a Linked-List data structure using only class instantiations. A common node definition might be like so: template<typename T> struct node { T t; node<T>* next; node<T>* prev; }; I'm aware of std::list etc, I'm just curious to know if its possible or not - and if so how? code examples will be greatly appreciated.

• Vector of objects

  - by Paul

  I've got a abstract class class A { public: virtual void somefunction() = ; }; and some different classes that inherit this class: class Ab { public: void somefunction(); }; etc. I want to make a vector containing some objects of these classes (how many depends on input parameters) so I can access these easily later. However I'm a bit lost on how to do this. My best idea is vector<A> *objectsVector; Ab AbObject; objectsVector.push_back(AbObject); However this gives me a huge amout of errors from various .h files in /usr/include/c++ How should i solve this?

• How do game trainers change an address in memory that's dynamic?

  - by GameTrainersWTF

  Lets assume I am a game and I have a global int* that contains my health. A game trainer's job is to modify this value to whatever in order to achieve god mode. I've looked up tutorials on game trainers to understand how they work, and the general idea is to use a memory scanner to try and find the address of a certain value. Then modify this address by injecting a dll or whatever. But I made a simple program with a global int* and its address changes every time I run the app, so I don't get how game trainers can hard code these addresses? Or is my example wrong? What am I missing?
