  • Is there such a thing as a C# style extension method in C++ ?

    - by Gary Willoughby
    I'm currently learning C++ and i run into the simple problem of converting an int to a string. I've worked around it using: string IntToString(int Number) { stringstream Stream; Stream << Number; return Stream.str(); } but though it would be more elegant to use something like: int x = 5; string y = x.toString(); but how do i add the toString() method to a built in type? or am i missing something totally fundamental?

  • Problems with video conversions through the web (local host)

    - by ron-d
    Hello, I get the following errors when I attempt video format conversions called from the local host: “An invalid media type was specified” for M4V to WMV conversions. “One or more arguments are invalid” for MP4 to WMV conversions. Here are the details of the problems: I’ve written a dll in C# that accepts videos in the formats AVI, WMV, M4V and MP4 and performs the following actions: Creates a copy of the input video in WMV format . Creates a WAV file of the input video audio portion. Creates a JPG image from a frame of the input video. I attached the dll to an ASP.NET web project that performs the dll actions. When tested through the developer studio, the actions are performed as intended for all formats. When I place the web project in place to be read when the local host is called through the web browser, the following behavior takes place: WMV format: All actions performed as intended. AVI format: Creates WMV file – OK Creates JPG image – OK Creates empty WAV file – problem. M4V format: Creates empty WAV file – problem. Does not create WMV file -problem Does not create JPG file –problem Throws me the error “An invalid media type was specified” MP4 format: Creates empty WAV file – problem. Does not create WMV file -problem Does not create JPG file –problem Throws me the error “One or more arguments are invalid” When I check their security property, all the files have the same permission access parameters (when I check their security property. Can anyone guide me as to how to solve these problems when the web project is called from the local host? Thank you.

  • Convert EPS/PDF to JPEG/PNG?

    - by Kjensen
    Hi I need to be able to take EPS and PDF's and convert them to JPEG/PNG on the fly to display on a website - using .net code. I used ADC PDF from WebSupergoo for this like 3 years ago, and it worked fine - but some other and better options could easily have surfaced since then.

  • Converting "A* Search" code from C++ to Java [on hold]

    - by mr5
    Updated! I get this code from this site It's A* Search Algorithm(finding shortest path with heuristics) I modify most of variable names and some if conditions from the original version to satisfy my syntactic taste. It works in C++ (as I can't see any trouble with it) but fails in Java version.

In what way does it became different algorithmically from the C++ version?

  • How to convert Xml files to Text Files 2

    - by John
    Hi all, I have around 8000 xml files that needs to be converted into text files. The text file must contain title, description and keywords of the xml file without the tags and removing other elements and attributes as well. In other words, i need to create 8000 text files containing the title,description and keywords of the xml file. I need codings for this to be done systematically. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Hey all thank you all so so much with your replies. Here's a sample of what my xml looks like: <?xml version="1.0"?> <metadata> <identifier>43productionsNightatthegraveyard</identifier> <title>Night at the graveyard</title> <collection>opensource_movies</collection> <mediatype>movies</mediatype> <resource>movies</resource> <upload_application appid="ccPublisher" version="2.2.1"/> <uploader>[email protected]</uploader> <description>una noche en el cementerio (terror)</description> <license>http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/</license> <title>Night at the graveyard</title> <format>Video</format> <adder>[email protected]</adder> <licenseurl>http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/</licenseurl> <year>2007</year> <keywords>Night,at,the,graveyard,43,productions</keywords> <holder>43 productions</holder> <publicdate>2007-04-11 19:52:28</publicdate> </metadata> And this would be the output: una noche en el cementerio (terror) Night at the graveyard Night,at,the,graveyard,43,productions This need to be saved with the same name but in text format.

  • Compatible types and structures in C

    - by Oli Charlesworth
    I have the following code: int main(void) { struct { int x; } a, b; struct { int x; } c; struct { int x; } *p; b = a; /* OK */ c = a; /* Doesn't work */ p = &a; /* Doesn't work */ return 0; } which fails to compile under GCC (3.4.6), with the following error: test.c:8: error: incompatible types in assignment test.c:9: warning: assignment from incompatible pointer type Now, from what I understand (admittedly from the C99 standard), is that a and c should be compatible types, as they fulfill all the criteria in section 6.2.7, paragraph 1. I've tried compiling with std=c99, to no avail. Presumably my interpretation of the standard is wrong?

  • Avoid incompatible pointer warning when dealing with double-indirection

    Assuming this program: #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> static void ring_pool_alloc(void **p, size_t n) { static unsigned char pool[256], i = 0; *p = &pool[i]; i += n; } int main(void) { char *str; ring_pool_alloc(&str, 7); strcpy(str, "foobar"); printf("%s\n", str); return 0; } ... is it possible to somehow avoid the GCC warning test.c:12: warning: passing argument 1 of ‘ring_pool_alloc’ from incompatible pointer type test.c:4: note: expected ‘void **’ but argument is of type ‘char **’ ... without casting to (void**) (or simply disabling the compatibility checks)?

  • C++ arrays as parameters, subscript vs. pointer

    - by awshepard
    Alright, I'm guessing this is an easy question, so I'll take the knocks, but I'm not finding what I need on google or SO. I'd like to create an array in one place, and populate it inside a different function. I define a function: void someFunction(double results[]) { for (int i = 0; i<100; ++i) { for (int n = 0; n<16; ++n) //note this iteration limit { results[n] += i * n; } } } That's an approximation to what my code is doing, but regardless, shouldn't be running into any overflow or out of bounds issues or anything. I generate an array: double result[16]; for(int i = 0; i<16; i++) { result[i] = -1; } then I want to pass it to someFunction someFunction(result); When I set breakpoints and step through the code, upon entering someFunction, results is set to the same address as result, and the value there is -1.000000 as expected. However, when I start iterating through the loop, results[n] doesn't seem to resolve to *(results+n) or *(results+n*sizeof(double)), it just seems to resolve to *(results). What I end up with is that instead of populating my result array, I just get one value. What am I doing wrong?

    Hi there. I've got quite big trouble, because i need to anathematise from styling some input types. I had something like: .registration_form_right input:not([type="radio") { //Nah. } But i don't want to style checkboxes too. I've tried: .registration_form_right input:not([type="radio" && type="checkbox"]) .registration_form_right input:not([type="radio" && "checkbox"]) .registration_form_right input:not([type="radio") && .registration_form_right input:not(type="checkbox"]) How to use &&? And I'll need to use || soon, and I think that usage will be same. Thanks.

  • Are ternary operators not valid for linq-to-sql queries?

    - by KallDrexx
    I am trying to display a nullable date time in my JSON response. In my MVC Controller I am running the following query: var requests = (from r in _context.TestRequests where r.scheduled_time == null && r.TestRequestRuns.Count > 0 select new { id = r.id, name = r.name, start = DateAndTimeDisplayString(r.TestRequestRuns.First().start_dt), end = r.TestRequestRuns.First().end_dt.HasValue ? DateAndTimeDisplayString(r.TestRequestRuns.First().end_dt.Value) : string.Empty }); When I run requests.ToArray() I get the following exception: Could not translate expression ' Table(TestRequest) .Where(r => ((r.scheduled_time == null) AndAlso (r.TestRequestRuns.Count > 0))) .Select(r => new <>f__AnonymousType18`4(id = r.id, name = r.name, start = value(QAWebTools.Controllers.TestRequestsController). DateAndTimeDisplayString(r.TestRequestRuns.First().start_dt), end = IIF(r.TestRequestRuns.First().end_dt.HasValue, value(QAWebTools.Controllers.TestRequestsController). DateAndTimeDisplayString(r.TestRequestRuns.First().end_dt.Value), Invoke(value(System.Func`1[System.String])))))' into SQL and could not treat it as a local expression. If I comment out the end = line, everything seems to run correctly, so it doesn't seem to be the use of my local DateAndTimeDisplayString method, so the only thing I can think of is Linq to Sql doesn't like Ternary operators? I think I've used ternary operators before, but I can't remember if I did it in this code base or another code base (that uses EF4 instead of L2S). Is this true, or am I missing some other issue?

  • C# Multidimensional Array Definition

    - by Blaenk
    Can someone help me convert this to C#. I've already spent more time than I would have liked trying to do it myself and it's preventing me from actually getting any work done. I guess it seems like C# has a limitation regarding how one can define arrays. I think somewhere inside I have to keep doing new int[] but I'm not sure exactly where. You don't have to convert the whole thing, just enough so I can understand how to do it. I would really appreciate it. I would like to use integers instead of characters, by the way. Thanks again // Pieces definition char mArray [7][4][5][5] = { // Square { { {0, 0, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 2, 1, 0}, {0, 0, 1, 1, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0} }, { {0, 0, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 2, 1, 0}, {0, 0, 1, 1, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0} }, { {0, 0, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 2, 1, 0}, {0, 0, 1, 1, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0} }, { {0, 0, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0}, {0, 0, 2, 1, 0}, {0, 0, 1, 1, 0}, {0, 0, 0, 0, 0} } }, // and so on and so forth, for 6 more };

  • VB.NET class inherits a base class and implements an interface issue (works in C#)

    - by 300 baud
    I am trying to create a class in VB.NET which inherits a base abstract class and also implements an interface. The interface declares a string property called Description. The base class contains a string property called Description. The main class inherits the base class and implements the interface. The existence of the Description property in the base class fulfills the interface requirements. This works fine in C# but causes issues in VB.NET. First, here is an example of the C# code which works: public interface IFoo { string Description { get; set; } } public abstract class FooBase { public string Description { get; set; } } public class MyFoo : FooBase, IFoo { } Now here is the VB.NET version which gives a compiler error: Public Interface IFoo Property Description() As String End Interface Public MustInherit Class FooBase Private _Description As String Public Property Description() As String Get Return _Description End Get Set(ByVal value As String) _Description = value End Set End Property End Class Public Class MyFoo Inherits FooBase Implements IFoo End Class If I make the base class (FooBase) implement the interface and add the Implements IFoo.Description to the property all is good, but I do not want the base class to implement the interface. The compiler error is: Class 'MyFoo' must implement 'Property Description() As String' for interface 'IFoo'. Implementing property must have matching 'ReadOnly' or 'WriteOnly' specifiers. Can VB.NET not handle this, or do I need to change my syntax somewhere to get this to work?

  • Python elegant inverse function of int(string,base)

    - by random guy
    python allows conversions from string to integer using any base in the range [2,36] using: int(string,base) im looking for an elegant inverse function that takes an integer and a base and returns a string for example >>> str_base(224,15) 'ee' i have the following solution: def digit_to_char(digit): if digit < 10: return chr(ord('0') + digit) else: return chr(ord('a') + digit - 10) def str_base(number,base): if number < 0: return '-' + str_base(-number,base) else: (d,m) = divmod(number,base) if d: return str_base(d,base) + digit_to_char(m) else: return digit_to_char(m) note: digit_to_char() works for bases <= 169 arbitrarily using ascii characters after 'z' as digits for bases above 36 is there a python builtin, library function, or a more elegant inverse function of int(string,base) ?

  • "Invalid use of Null" when using Str() with a Null Recordset field, but Str(Null) works fine

    - by Mike Spross
    I'm banging my head against the wall on this one. I was looking at some old database reporting code written in VB6 and case across this line (the code is moving data from a "source" database into a reporting database): rsTarget!VehYear = Trim(Str(rsSource!VehYear)) When rsSource!VehYear is Null, the above line generates an "Invalid use of Null" run-time error. If I break on the above line and type the following in the Immediate pane: ?rsSource!VehYear It outputs Null. Fine, that makes sense. Next, I try to reproduce the error: ?Str(rsSource!VehYear) I get an "Invalid use of Null" error. However, if I type the following into the Immediate window: ?Str(Null) I don't get an error. It simply outputs Null. If I repeat the same experiment with Trim() instead of Str(), everything works fine. ?Trim(rsSource!VehYear) returns Null, as does ?Trim(Null). No run-time errors. So, my question is, how can Str(rsSource!VehYear) possibly throw an "Invalid use of Null" error when Str(Null) does not, when I know that rsSource!VehYear is equal to Null?
