The concept is a bit stupid... You can check what members the =

has. anyway  in general if you inherit from a class and you do not know =
what
member functions has(?!) if a member function exists, is non-virtual by =
its
creator and takes the same arguments as yours, you can use that function =
by
using a base pointer. For example:
=20
=20
class whatever
{
 // ...
=20
 public:
 // ...
=20
 int something() const;
};
=20
=20
class your_class: public whatever
{
 // ...
=20
 public:
 //...
=20
 // You happen to define something() and
 // you did not know it existed(!?)
 void something() const;
};
=20
=20
whatever *p=3Dnew your_class;
=20
=20
//whatever::something() is called
// and not your definition
p->something();

[Dev-C++] How to make VSTpluggs with Dev-C++!

[Gabriel L. <ga...@ti...>]

My "How to make VSTpluggs with Dev-C++ v. 4.9.8.0 [http://bloodshed.net]
or later" has moved to the VST Source Code Archive 
[http://www.u-he.com/vstsource/] hosted by Urs Heckmann.
The HowTo is far from complete as I have not yet written
anything on how to make the new open source VSTGUI (as introduced in the
2.3 version of the VST SDK) work. There have been some postings on the
net on the subject but lack of time has prevented me from studying them
more carefully, something I hope to remedy in the upcoming weeks as well
as trying to make it work in practise. Any suggestions or additions on
the VSTGUI subject will greatly appriciated.

[Dev-C++] (no subject)

[Jorge A. <jab...@ma...>]

Hello Guys!!

Again, thanks for the help and the - how could I say?, enlightening?- discussion. Daniel's solution worked alright and, what the hell?, I was happy, as I consider myself a beginner and my window program worked. 

However, Per remarks were really good to understand what was going on. I believe we should shoot for the excellency, therefore, I tried the following code: 

///////
 for (loop=0;loop<Number_of_Points;loop++)
     {
     DWORD dWritten;
     sprintf (temp,"%3d \r\n",ran1[loop]);
     WriteFile(hFile, temp, strlen(temp),&dWritten, NULL);
     } 
//////

and it worked, too! 

just for you to know: 
a) in the first version I had: char temp[3], now I changed to 100. 

b) the goal was to write an ascii file, not a binary. 

Just for anybody interested, the program I wrote is to calculate random numbers according to 3 different types of probability density functions (I will include more in the future). Types supported are uniform, gaussian, and rayleigh. I don't have any problem sharing it and, as I am sure it contains many bugs, receive comments to improve it!!!

Re: [Dev-C++] (no subject)

[Per W. <pw...@ia...>]

Sorry for coming out a bit rough but it's just that I think this issues
are important. Too many programs fails miserably because of this kind of
errors.

First of all - count the number of parameters used to
  sprintf(temp,"\r\n","");
What would you say the third parameter was used for. Sending extra
parameters just because a variadric function allows it MUST be called
inefficient.

Second - do you notice any formatting character in the second parameter?
If not, then there is no need to call sprintf(), and strcpy() would
clearly be preferable to use.

Third - why talk about how expensive a line is, when - in reality - it
isn't needed at all. You might notice that
  WriteFile(handle,"\r\n",2,&dwCount,NULL);
doesn't need the text to becopied to a temporary buffer before it is
emitted. Also, 2 is the correct number of characters to emit if the goal
is to generate a normal text file - at least until we aim for Unicode or
multi-byte encodings.

I'm pretty sure that temp wasn't declared as:
  char temp[2]
so sizeof(temp) will most certainly result in an incorrect number of
characters being written.

Notice that
  sprintf(temp,"\r\n");
would require 3 characters in temp, while
  sprintf(temp,"%3d",x);
would require at least 4 - depending on the value of x.

Obviously, it isn't possible to emit the two strings to a text file
by using sizeof(temp). It wasn't possible in the original question either,
since sprintf() requires room an extra termination chaarcter. Either
temp[] would be large enough for that character - but then the termination
character would also be emitted. Or temp[] was just large enough for the
characters, but then sprintf() would have made a buffer overflow.

But still - the code didn't prove that -99 <= ran1[loop] <= 999. Without
that assumption, it isn't possible to predict the number of charactesr
that sprintf() needs when performing the %3d processing. Given a variable
number of characters in the formatted string, sizeof(temp) may never work,
and strlen(temp) must be used.

If emitting a binary file, sizeof(temp) is ok, since then temp[] might be
defined "large enough", and the program may safely ignore any random
characters emitted after the '\0' string termination and the full size of
the temp[] buffer. However, the use of "\r\n" in the output seems like a
very large indication that a binary fixed record-size file was intended.

[Dev-C++] Help for packages

[Edward D. <eld...@ea...>]

After installing ImageLib and wxWindows DevPaks in 4.9.8.1, I can not =
find any Help files for these packages. Is there supposed to be Help =
files with DevPaks ? If not, how does one learn to use any of them ?

Re: [Dev-C++] (no subject)

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

Given the speed of processors now, something like that can hardly be called 
expensive can it?

Re: [Dev-C++] (no subject)

[Per W. <pw...@ia...>]

But that ignores the problem that sizeof(temp) doesn't take into account
the number of characters in the buffer, only total declared size of it. As
such, sizeof(temp) should never be used for emitting text files unless you
really, really, really - did I say really? - know what you are doing.
strlen() is available specifically for checking the length of a string.

In the first WriteFile() call, temp contains 2 characters, a terminating
zero and an unknown number of extra garbage at the end - depending on what
size it was declared as.

In the second WriteFile() call, temp constans 3 characters, a terminating
zero and an unknown number of extra garbage.

Besides, sprintf(temp,"\r\n","") is a bit expensive since the formatting
string didn't contain any formatting. That is when strcpy(temp,"\r\n")
should be used.

Further, since the emitted string is a constant, why not directly emit
WriteFile(hFile,"\r\n",2,&dWritten,NULL);

Any why not check the return value and the value of dWritten? And - just
a bit more knit-picking - dWritten should be called dwWritten since it is
of type double-word.

Re: [Dev-C++] Classes for Windows

[<sol...@ya...>]

  MFC comes with MS Visual C++.
I got a CD with a trial cersion of it, I tried once to compile the 
examples with MFC in Dev, copying the MFC directories (I haven't 
installed MSVisual), and at first attempt I didn't achieve it. However, 
I haven't tried too hard, so perhaps it is possible to use MFC with dev, 
but just copying the MFC dirs is not enough (perhaps you need copy some 
other items I didn't).

Re: [Dev-C++] Classes for Windows

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

Can you use MFC in dev-cpp? You can download the libraries from somewhere?

MFC is easy enough, just don't go expecting your applications to be small in 
size (not that it really matters to most people).

Based on my experience (and on www.trolltech.com 's info), Qt doesn't 
work with MinGW, only with MS Visual C++.

But here is an interesting link:

There is the MFC (Microsoft Foundation Classes), I have
never used it though so I am not so sure how easy it is. If
you want portablity (or even if you don't) wxWindows is a
GUI creation library (you get threads, sockets, etc) that
is not that hard to learn (I actually know this one). Also
there is GTK+ and QT (neither I have used, but I have heard
good things about them)

Hope this Helps

[Dev-C++] (no subject)

[Jorge A. <jab...@ma...>]

Hey guys, thanks for the help,

Actually Daniel Glenfield was write. I did not try Per W. solution that probably would work either. 

I changed the code to the followin and it worked well:

/////////
 for (loop=0;loop<Number_of_Points;loop++)
     {
     DWORD dWritten;
     sprintf (temp,"\r\n","");
     WriteFile(hFile, temp, sizeof(temp),&dWritten, NULL);
     sprintf (temp,"%3d",ran1[loop]);
     WriteFile(hFile, temp, sizeof(temp),&dWritten, NULL);
     }
/////////

[Dev-C++] Classes for Windows

[Esteban V. <est...@ho...>]

Hi, is there any class package for gcc to write windows applications instead
the classical Windows API functions ?
