Hi Neville -
Yes, I've since figured out this is exactly what is going on. Unfortunately, there are several layers of function calls (that I
can't post) that need to be amended.  A seeminly small
tweak & adjustment has now turned into an all-day re-write...
Thanks.

const has a habit of doing this to you. An editor with good global search and replace can help a lot at these times. Hint - see my sig.;)

If you can come up with an editor with refactoring tools such as those found in Jet Brain's IntelliJ editor[^] I will be your customer until the day comes when I will no longer program for a living.
I know that's no easy task for a C++ IDE/editor (at least not as easy as in Java, where they have introspection/reflection API's), but I'd gladly pay for it, cause it would 1) save me a lot of time, and 2) dare to bite the bullet and go ahead with redesigns, since the code will be refactored in a jiffy.
If I'll be a good boy 'til Christmas, will you have such an IDE for me to buy? Please?

Can someone please explain 1) how the predicate 'op' differs in each map example below, 2)why op needs to be a class or struct with the predicate specified in an overloaded () operator , 3) why when I use #2 or #3 I loose the ability to change an element using map[key] (such as ++map[key]), and 4) if it is possible to order the elements based on the elements(elem) themselves (i.e. not the key). Thanks!
1) map<key, elem, op> m;
2) map<key, elem> m(op);
3) map<key, elem, op1> m(op2);

Just as a reference for the comments below, from the Microsoft Documentation:
template <
class Key,
class Type,
class Traits = less<Key>,
class Allocator=allocator<pair <const Key, Type> >

The comparison of keys defaults to using std::less<Key>, which relies upon a less than operator being available. In examples 1) and 3) a custom comparison functor needs to be supplied. In 2) the default is used.
MatthewP wrote:

It doesn't. All it needs to do is provide function call notation, it could be a function, but is generally implemented as a class or struct.

From the Microsoft Documentation:
Type& operator[](
const Key& _Key
);
You can, you just need to make sure that the types of the template paramters match the types of the comparison functor.
MatthewP wrote:

If this is a problem perhaps a map isn't the appropriate data structure. Sometimes sorted or associative vectors (or even sets) may give better performance or model the problem domain more closely.
Look at the common operations (in performance critical code) that you'll be using the container for, and select the container based upon those operation. Are inserts, removes or updates the most frequent operations? Most operations are cited in big oh notation, and are easy to get.

This definition of map should provide most of the information you need: STL map[^]

I is have application for personal assistance, and is use some date and time functions. I am using C++ in the .NET. When is compiled on XP computer, is not runs correct on 2000. When is compiled on 2000, then is runs rightly on both XP and 2000.
Does anyone knowing of compatabile problems with XP/2000? Maybe problem with .NET?
Thanksing...

what excactly does not work correctly?
Don't try it, just do it!

Not surely what is wrong since can not debug because only when running the XP version on 2000 is not working. When I compiles on 2000 is working fine.
In the start of program I get the today date to start, and the informations on my screen is wrong. But then later in program when I get today date it is right, and so is the informations.
Also, the spin control sometimes jumps 2 instead of 1 when compiled on XP. When is compiling on 2000 then only jumps by 1.
Thanksing...

Are there any choices how to create an ActiveX in VS? I see there is a possibility to create an ActiveX-project but I like the dialog drag-and-drop style when creating my MFC-apps. May I create an ActiveX “drag and drop” project in either VS 6.0 or VS .NET?
Any suggestions on ActiveX-articles would please me very much.
...and justice for all

I have a GPS program serially reading incoming data. A sample of my code is below.
// get speed
Code = mgcGetData(GPRMC_SPEED,(LPSTR)DataBuffer);
if(Code<0) ShowMGC32Error(Code);
if(Code>0) printf("%5s ", DataBuffer);
I have the program printing a few of these data buffers to the screen. I was wondering how to store this data file readout into a actual variable so i can do some calculations
i cant just do variable=databuffer;
???
|
|
|
|
|
TCHAR szData[16];
wsprintf(szData,_T("%5s"),DataBuffer);
or use sprintf,(CRT Library)
I am seeking...
For what?
Why did you ask me for what? I don't know!

i get these errors

include tchar.h in stdafx.h

I assume you want to convert a string of some form into a number of some form. So look at 'atoi' as a first pass, then 'strtoul' and it's relatives, possibly 'scanf'.

I am trying to write an App that receives Data from the Serial Port, but I am having trouble finding out what type that data is and where it can be stored when it comes through the serial port
Whether it be a character string or otherwise.
I need to know because I want to Manipulate that string when it comes through
Anyone know?

Hi,
Serial device uses byte streaming in order to send and receive data. Therefore, you can use char array to store your data.

Thank you for the quick response Ahmet.
To clarify, When you say Byte, What is considered a Byte?
Is '7' a byte or is '7F' a byte?
thank you and believe me, I need as much clarification as possible.

I mean, 'A' is 0x65.
Your welcome.

Serial ports have variable numbers of data bits per character. This goes back to Baudot coding for Telex transmissions sometime in pre-history which I think was only 5 bits per char. ASCII would be 7 bits. Most serial ports (and all those on a PC) will do 8 bit characters.
Each character (of however many bits) received from a serial port will end up as a 'char' in your data buffer. This character is just a bit pattern, a number, whether it is interpreted as 'A' or not is down to the coding you've chosen. So 0x65 is alway 0x65 but not necessarily 'A'.
If you could enlarge on what you want to do, how you want to do it, and where you are now, then I/we could be specifically helpful.

Paul, I would be more then happy to further engage you on what I am doing in Private, but I do not feel real comfortable talking about it in public.

Hi guys,
I am wondering what are the benefits to include
#define _ATL_CSTRING_EXPLICIT_CONSTRUCTORS
optional macro.
I can see it's automatically genrated in my stdafx.h header file. But if I do not have it removed, I will get conversion error from wchar_t to CString in my program. If I want allow this specific conversion, how do I explicitly define it?
Thanks

Hi, I am creating an FTP client in C++ using MFC. I just started the project, so I have a few questions:
1) Should I be using a dialog mfc app for this because I want it to be similar to WS_FTP.
2) What type of dialog control would I use for showing the contents of the user's local working directory and the remote working directory...A list control?
3) Now, what is the easiest way to show the contents of the working directory. Is there a function I can use?
I appreciate all comments and suggestions. Thanks!

1) Yes. (SDI CFormView might be a choice as well, but that depends on how complex you want things)
2) Yep, that is a reasonable choice.
3) When it comes to this question, I'm not too sure.
Happy Programming and God Bless!
