Hi,
What is the Difference between “vector” and “array”?
when to use which one?
Thanks
Nandu.
|
|
|
|

There is no "array" in STL. Do you mean Boost Array?
|
|
|
|
|
I wonder if he means the difference between vector and raw arrays?

I mean usind an simple C++ array and STL vector

Here[^] is a pretty long discussion about that.

hi,
in the code below, i highlighted my points of interest. the declaration of the template function make takes a const char[]. in the call to this function, why is < deque<char> > inserted before the actual parameter? i.e. it's not in the signature and the parameter is not a typename but an explicit const array of characters.
thanks!

#include <iostream><br />
#include <cassert><br />
#include <deque><br />
#include <algorithm>
using namespace std; <br />
template <typename Container><br />
Container make(const char s[])<br />
{<br />
return Container(&s[0], &s[strlen(s)]);<br />
}<br />
<br />
int main()<br />
{<br />
cout << "Demonstrating generic find algorithm with "<br />
<< "a deque." << endl;<br />
deque<char> deque1 = <br />
make< deque<char> >("C++ is a better C");<br />
<br />
deque<char>::iterator<br />
where = find(deque1.begin(), deque1.end(), 'e');<br />
assert (*where == 'e' && *(where + 1) == 't');<br />
cout << " --- Ok." << endl;<br />
return 0;<br />
}<br />

This is the template function declaration.
template <typename Container> Container make(const char s[])<br />
And your example translates to:
template < deque<char> Container> Container make(const char s[])<br />
Which actually translates to:
deque<char> make(const char s[])<br />
{<br />
return deque<char>(&s[0], &s[strlen(s)]);<br />
}<br />
"const char s[]" is just a parameter to the function make, which in your case returns an object of type deque<char>.

thanks but i was asking about the call to the function template. if you noticed the second highlighted line, the call specifies <deque<char>> before the actual const char array parameter. This <deque<char> is not part of the signature after the function name. But somehow, it is needed to determine what type the instance of the template function is.
cheers!

By calling make< deque<char> >, you're telling the compiler which template to use, since it can't "infer" the template type from from the arguments.

For that particular function, the type of Container isn't indicated by the parameters. IOW, if you wrote:
make("C++ is a better C");how would the compiler know what type of Container you wanted to make?
|
|

Is this possible? In particular, I just installed copypathext.dll from here: http://www.codeproject.com/shell/copypathext.asp. I'd like to invoke the commands in that dll instead of using the context menu.
|
|
|
|
|
|
That was quick, thanks. The routine I want to run was explained in the article as IContextMenu::InvokeCommand. There was also this: The code consists of an ATL DLL project with a single class, CCopyPathContextMenu. Like all context menus, it implements the IContextMenu. What would be the syntax for the entry point to pass to rundll32?
|
|
|
|
|
Mmmm - that's more tricky, if not just plain impossible with rundll32. It lets you call a C function from a DLL. However, you're wanting to call a COM method. Which means you need a COM object reference, and I don't know how you'd create a COM object on the command line without just writing your own code (in an executable) to do so.
Sorry

The following code will generate a random integer, then format this in uppercase hexidecimal, and then copy it to a std:string. Is there a better way of doing formatted output to a std:string ?
std::string sRandomString;<br />
std::ostringstream osRandomString;<br />
int x;<br />
<br />
x = (rand() << 16) | rand();<br />
osRandomString << std::hex << std::uppercase << x;
sRandomString = osRandomString.str();<br />
<br />
Why does it not work correctly when I use std::ostringstream::hex and std::ostringstream::uppercase ?
If I want to create multiple random strings by using a loop, am I right in thinking I just need to place the following line at the end of the loop, so that the next string generated will overwrite the previous string in the stream, instead of being appended to it ?
osRandomString.seekp(0);
Is it necessary to place << endl or << ends after x where the formatting takes place ?
eg. osRandomString << std::hex << std::uppercase << x << endl;
If yes, should I use endl or ends ?
|
|
|
|
|
If you want to use STL strings, you might want to look at Boost.Format[^]. Then you could do something like:
osRandomString = boost::format("%X") % x; It's basically a type-safe and more C++-ish version of printf. And there's so much other good stuff in Boost as well that you're doing yourself a favour by using it (IMO!).

Dear ATL C++ / graphics people,
I already searched the forums, but found no answer, just questions to
this topic. So I'll try my luck and post my question:
I am searching for an easy way to load a sequence of jpeg files (which
form a video) into memory and play them like a video. I furthermore
want to react on a keypress by drawing a frame into the current jpeg
in the sequence and saving it to disk/memory (maybe to disk not during
play, but after it, since there should not be delays, performance
does matter!). Is there a simple way to do this with the ATL already?
A little navigation functionality would be great (jumping to specific
frames, having a slider, Play/Stop Button etc.)
Did anyone already do something like that? I want to use pure ATL
and no MFC since I have a guideline to use ATL only.
Would be nice if that would be possible and anyone could help.
Best regards,
Peter.

i have a problem with this tutorial in step3.
get_Sides and put_Sides methods not getting added! i dont't know y. plz check with below tutorial.

1.Right-click IPolyCtl in Class View (expand the Polygon branch to find it).
If you Right-Clicked on _IPolyCtl then those methods won't be added. I think i had the same problem when using the tutorial.
