RE: [Dev-C++] Help with creating objects dynamically

[Satish M. <sat...@ya...>]

Hello Marc,

  Thank you for your reply. There is no real necessity for me to do so.. I
can make it work using a hash table or some kind of a mapping function.. I
just thought that if it was possible in the way I earlier asked, I could
save some execution time as there will not be much need for searching
operation..

  As i got almost every feedback saying that this is not possible, I think
I will stick to a hash table solution.

  Thank you for all your help with this.

[Dev-C++] ANN: dev_star / Q: getline with std::string

[Abhijit S. <mu...@gm...>]

Hello, everyone.

  I have written a small utility called dev_star that allows Dev-C++ to use
any C/C++ compiler.
It does this by mapping the command-line and capturing the stdout/stderr of
the target compiler. It then sends the captured data to a plug-in, which
formats it so that Dev-C++ can parse it.

  I myself use only MinGW32, but I think this tool can be useful. I need
people to write maps and plug-ins for compilers, and also to actually _test_
the thing out. If any of you have the time, visit the page:

	http://mudeth.tripod.com/dev_star.html

  Please report any suggestions, bug-fixes, etc. to me. TIA for your time.

  The program itself was inspired by a similar one by Luigi Santillo, called
dev_bor, which was specific to Borland's free package.

  Related to that, I'd also like to ask the list why stream.getline(foo)
doesn't seem to work when foo is a string. Is there another way to do this?

RE: [Dev-C++] Help with creating objects dynamically

[Marc H. <ma...@e-...>]

I can see absolutely no requirement to do this at all. In addition (and =
to
answer the question) I can see absolutely no way of doing it either.
Scripting languages that have some kind of eval statement could do this, =
but
again, I can see no requirement for it (although I have used a similar
mechanism in a JScript ASP project to create objects of a particular =
name,
but never dependant on data within the object itself).=20

Maybe if you enlighten us on why you would want to do this, we could =

you find a solution.

Should work.

Well better: use a map. Something like this should work, though not tested=
=20
right now.
STL is a wonderful tool.;)

#include <map>
#include <string>

#include "MyObjectClass.h"
//and then have you object database

std::map<std::string, MyObjectClass*> obj_db;

void add_to_db()
{
         MyObjectClass* obj =3D new MyObjectClass;
         obj_db.insert(std::map<std::string, MyObjectClass*>::value_type(=20
std::string(getName()), obj));
}

MyObjectClass& get_from_db(const std::string& name)
{
         std::map<std::string, MyObjectClass*>::iterator it;
         it =3D obj_db.find(name);
         if (it =3D=3D map.end()) throw std::string("name not found int=

Yes, there is port of Borland's BGI to Windows. I've downloaded WinBGI
sometime ago.
Unfortunately, the WinBGI package does not contain the .a file for use with
Dev-C++/MinGW.

But I've tweaked the WinBGI source codes a bit and managed to build
libwinbgi.a.
Also, the original source for bgidemo.c from Borland is also included in the
package.

I've created two Dev-C++ projects:
1. To build libwinbgi.a from the source.
2. To build testwinbgi.exe from bgidemo.cpp (I've re-named bgidemo.c to
bgidemo.cpp)

I've zipped and uploaded Dev-C++/MinGW port of WinBGI in this file:
http://www.yeohhs.com/shareware/winbgi_DevCpp.zip (file size: 42.5KB)

Please note that there were several warnings during the builds of both
libwinbgi and bgidemo.cpp.
However, the test program does work.
Also, I've not tested WinBGI thoroughly. :-)

You can download WinBGI from here:

RE: [Dev-C++] Virtual functions?

[Somanathan K. <som...@wi...>]

I hope you are familiar with pointers. Its needs a good understanding of
pointers. See the below example,

Class base=20
{
	public:
		virtual void f1(){=20
               ...body ...
            }
};

class derived1 : public base
{
	public:
		virtual void f1(){ // virtual or not doesn't matter here
			...body...
            }
}

class derived2 : public base
{
	public:
		virtual void f1(){
		   ... body...
            }
}

int main()
{
  base* b;
  derived1* d1 =3D new derived1;
  derived2* d2 =3D new derived2;=20
  b =3D d1;
  b->f1(); //this calls the derived1 f1
  b=3Dd2;
  b->f1(); //this call the derived2 f1
 // u should delete the objects....
} =20

this is a simple example, but in actual usage, it will be bit different
(Objects may be pooled in a list/array etc.).  =20

Hi List,

I've been through numerous books & websites on this topic, but I _still_
can't quite understand what is the purpose of a virtual function.

From what I understand, a virtual function is defined in a base class,
but
isn't implemented there. The implementation goes in the derived class.
Now
if this is true, then why should I need to define a function in my base
class at all? Since I'm eventually going to implement it elsewhere, I
might
as well define it there too.

Am I even on the right track here? Can someone take me back to base
again?

Thanks.

Pranav Negandhi

Nope. As far as I know, this is not possible in C++. I know, that Perl=20
can do it, but if you EVER programmed in Perl, you know how different it =

is. So I don't think it ca nbe done.

A solution to your problem might be to give a "name" member to your=20
class, then at object creation, the constructor takes it as parameter,=20
and copies it into the name member.

Polymorphism.

> base class, but
> isn't implemented there.


No. A virtual function can be defined in the base class. If it is not
defined (=3D0 is used), this indicates that the class is abstract, that =
is no
object of it can be created.

Example:


class base_whatever
{
 // ...

 public:
 virtual void something() const=3D0;
};


// Error
base_whatever x;


class button
{
 // ...
=20
public:
// We could make it abstract which would suit better to this
// example
virtual void make_pushed();
};


class flash_button: public button
{
 // ...
 public:
 void make_pushed();
};


class rectangular_button: public button
{
 // ...
 public:
 void make_pushed();
};



void somefunc(const button *btn)
{
 // ...
 btn->make_pushed();
}


Depending on which object btn points to, the appropriate make_pushed()
member function is called. This is called polymorphishm.

In C++ the time cost of such a virtual function call is the same, =
regardless
of the depth of the inheritance.

RE: [Dev-C++] Virtual functions?

[Jaap de W. <wo...@ne...>]

You have access to functions without knowing of which class they are:

eg:
suppose you have a base class Person with virtual function: IsMale();
You have two derived classes: Man and Woman.
std::list<Person *>	Employees;

You can add a man to your organisation by:
Employees.push_back(new Man(...));
or a woman
Employees.push_back(new Woman(...));

Now you can count the number of man in your organisation with 
NrMan = 0;
for (i=Employees.begin(); i != Employees.end(); i++)
{
	NrMan = (*i)->IsMale();
}

[Dev-C++] Virtual functions?

[<pr...@le...>]

Hi List,

I've been through numerous books & websites on this topic, but I _still_
can't quite understand what is the purpose of a virtual function.

From what I understand, a virtual function is defined in a base class, but
isn't implemented there. The implementation goes in the derived class. Now
if this is true, then why should I need to define a function in my base
class at all? Since I'm eventually going to implement it elsewhere, I might
as well define it there too.

Am I even on the right track here? Can someone take me back to base again?

Thanks.

Regards,
Pranav Negandhi

Yeah, quite a few... I want to learn Linux and OpenGL and I have a
good idea how to do it, and I know that it's a looooong way...
lots to do... for linux I recently downloaded lots of ebook, chosen
slack and will get to it in few weeks... about oGL I've chosen ogre,
but that also have to wait...

But about your simple question:
menu start->control panel->folder option->file types->finc .cpp and .h
and click properites (or change) - the rest I think you'll do alone

[Dev-C++] Changing icons for .h and .cpp files - general windows Q

[Daniel G. <sp...@ho...>]

I've installed DEV onto my machine which also has visual studio. 
Unfortunately the icons changed to the ones for DEV for .h and .cpp files 
etc. How can I change them back? I've right clicked and done Open With and 
set to always use MSDEV with this sort of file, and I can double click on 
the icons (they are regular FILE icons) to launch them in visual studio, but 
I can't get the icons back!

Any ideas???

[Dev-C++] OpenGL Help

[Azmi B. M. R. <az...@bi...>]

Hi there,

I've been trying NeHe's Opengl tutorials (nehe.gamedev.net) on Windows
XP Home & Dev-cpp. When I reached tutorial 6, with the glaux function that
loads a BMP file, it compiles properly but does not run because glaux.dll
is not present. I tried putting the dll myself(from the opengl1.1 release
for win95) into the windows directory but it still does not run (some dll error).

I've read that the glaux libraries are outdated. Can anyone suggest a
solution (either how to make it run or an alternative function to use)?


Thanks,
Azmi

[Dev-C++] Help with creating objects dynamically

[Satish M. <sat...@ya...>]

Hello,

   I have the following requirement while creating objects.. I will try to
explain it using a small example..

   Suppose I have a class Student defined and I want to create objects of
type Student inside the main function..

   And say, the actual name with which i want to create the obect is
stored in a character array at run time.. say i have the following
statement
char NAME[]=getName();
and the above function is returning the name "JOHN" at run time.

   Now i want to get the name out of the character array and create the
object using that particular name at run time.. i.e., 
Student JOHN;  

   in a nutshell i want to give the name of the objects to be created at
run time. IS THIS POSSIBLE?? IF SO CAN ANYONE HELP ME WITH THIS??

Thank You in advance.
