Hello
I am looking for a graphing library simalar in look/functionality to MSAGL (previously called GLEE, see:
http://research.microsoft.com/research/msagl/[^]) for a project being developed in c++.
The problem with using MSAGL/GLEE is that it is written in c# for .net and I require a native c++ library which i can link into an existing project under development (build enviroment is borland turbo c++).
Can anybody recomend anything?
Many thanks in advance
J

on top of my head, maybe GraphViz can do that ?

Hello All,
Is there any way to restricting a class to be inherited? I dont want any one to inherit my class. I feel this can be possible only by making the constructor in private. Is there any other way to do this?
Regards

I think there is no way (other to switch to .NET programming).
But do you really need such a feature?

A private constructor is the only way that I know of.

Yep.
Only restricting access to the members using the private keyword will cause an impediment to use it as base classe because the private members of the base class are unavailable in the derivates.
There's not a sealed attribute in C++.

1. Private constructor to restrict inheritance.
2. Pure virtual member function to restrict object instantiation.
That's all I know.

You have the technical answers but are you sure you are applying this where needed?

I guess that the OP is making a DLL or something which exports classes ...

So exported classes should not be inheritable? I never knew that.

Ah, now I understand, it's the developers preference that is used as criteria to determine that a class should not be inheritable. I never knew that.

Thank you, sometimes it's like talking into space, devoid of logic and reason around here.

some thing like singleton class will do! old c++ still awaiting sealed class keyword

I have an MFC Dlg Application. Say the project is called Test.
Visual Studio creates a TestDlg.cpp and a Test.cpp among others.
I am finding that some initialization that i need to do in the Test.cpp involves me having to have access to a variable in the TestDlg.cpp.
I cannot do a static cast of the TestDlg.cpp can I?

Before calling the dialog's DoModal() method, you can access the dialog's public members.

"Test.cpp" is where your CTestApp implementation is.
"TestDlg.cpp" is where your main dialog window CTestDlg implementation is.
In "Test.cpp", there is the function CTestApp::InitInstance.
Inside this function body, you can see the variable
CTestDlg dlg;
dlg.DoModal();
So you can do initialization like this:
CTestDlg dlg;
dlg.InitMyMemberValues();
dlg.DoModal();

Is this the same way of thinking for a View application as opposed to a dlg based?

This is the C++ object-oriented way.

What i mean is in a dlg based app we have:
CTestDlg dlg;
dlg.DoModal();
in the initistance.
What is the equivalent for a Single or multiple document based application? In other words , the same original question,just applied to a single or multi0ple document based app instead of a dlg based?

After the view object has been created, you can access its public members.

not sure if it's really related to your problem, but have a look at this article[^] anyway...

I would add a CTestDlg member variable to CTestApp and change InitInstance to use that instead of one local to InitInstance.
