i was trying to simplify the problem here, which is why i used *(new Base);
what i really have is a while loop:
while (!odyn.IsEOF())
{
node.push_back(*(new MazeNode));
node[node.size()-1].init((string)eqpid, (string)eqptyp, 1);
odyn.MoveNext();
}
and node.push_back() takes a reference, which is why i need to dereference the memory allocated.
the code compiles with no problem, and works without error too. however polymorphism does not work at all. i've tested using a Base array in main() and polymorphism works.

If it does, then your vector is not a vector of pointers, and that is the prolem. If you want polymorphism to work, your vector will have to store pointers, not objects.

ok i've got the problem solved. silly me.
as you said, i required a vector of node pointers, but when i first started off, i only used a vector of nodes. it worked perfectly fine till i tried to use polymorphism, and this problem arised.
now i've made all the necessary changes and it's ok now. thanks for the reply

When posting, always copy/paste your code verbatim. Re-typing (or simplifying when it is not obvious you are doing so) into the forum will, more often than not, lead to erroneous assumptions and misguided answers.

hi, anyone please help?? i really need to be able to do both polymorphism and use vectors.

There is no problem using polymorphism in a vector. You are probably doing something wrong elsewhere.
Try to post the code of the declaration of the vector, the piece of code in which you add new elements to it and the piece of code where you make use of these elements (and where it seems polymorphism doesn't work).
This will help us to help you

Did that make any sense? If not, here's an example (lot of stuff leaved out, don't expect it to compile)
<br />
<br />
class Base<br />
{<br />
public:<br />
int m_iInt;<br />
<br />
public:<br />
int virtual GetInt() {return m_iInt);<br />
CString virtual GetClassInfo() {return CString("Base")};<br />
int NonVirtualGetInt(){return m_iInt);<br />
}<br />
<br />
class Derive1 : Base<br />
{<br />
public: <br />
int m_iAnotherInt;<br />
<br />
public:<br />
int virtual GetInt() {return m_iAnotherInt);<br />
CString virtual GetClassInfo() {return CString("Derive1")};<br />
int NonVirtualGetInt(){return m_iAnotherInt);<br />
}<br />
<br />
class Derive2 : Base<br />
{<br />
<br />
public:<br />
int virtual GetInt() {return 2 * m_iInt);<br />
CString virtual GetClassInfo() {return CString("Derive1")};<br />
int NonVirtualGetInt(){return 2 * m_iInt);<br />
}<br />
<br />
int main()<br />
{<br />
Base *pointer[3];<br />
<br />
pointer[0] = new Base;<br />
pointer[1] = new Derive1;<br />
pointer[2] = new Derive2;<br />
<br />
pointer[0]->m_iInt = 1
pointer[1]->m_iInt = 10
(CDerive1*)pointer[1]->m_iAnotherInt = 15
(CDerive2*)pointer[2]->m_iInt = 100<br />
(CDerive2*)pointer[2]->m_iAnotherInt = 150
<br />
for (i=0; i<3; i++) <br />
cout << pointer[i]->GetInt()
<br />
for (i=0; i<3; i++)<br />
cout << pointer[i]->m_iInt
<br />
for (i=0; i<3; i++)<br />
cout << pointer[i]->m_iAnotherInt
<br />
for (i=0; i<3; i++)<br />
cout << pointer[i]->NonVirtualGetInt()
<br />
for (i=0; i<3; i++) {<br />
CString cs=pointer[i]->GetClassInfo()<br />
if (cs == "Base") pointer[i]->NonVirtualGetInt()
if (cs == "Derive1") (Derive1*)pointer[i]->NonVirtualGetInt()
if (cs == "Derive2") (Derive2*)pointer[i]->NonVirtualGetInt()
}<br />
I'm sure you get the general idea. One thing that helps me in these cases is to always keep in mind that the compiler can only act on what it knows - so if it thinks an object is of type Base it will call Base-methods, unless the methods are virtual

This what is known a late binding

the type of classes are created correctly when the constructors are called. however, when i tried to access the pointers again later in my program, the program only treats each pointer as Base and no longer as any derived classes. thus polymorphism cannot work at all... this is crucial to me as i have several classes that's supposed to belong to the vector of pointers. if i use a simple array polymorphism works. but i need the vector.
How about putting the virtual before the name of the function (in the base class)

vector < Base* > pointer)<br />
pointer[0] = *(new Base);
doesn't make sense
Surely, it shold be
pointer[0] = new Base;
Anyway, I got a sample app to give you an idea. If you e-mail I'll gladly send it to you.
Happy programming

I'm a relatively new programmer and I was wondering if there was an easy way to read a text file of numbers seperated by spaces into a matrix. Here's what I got:
int i, j;<br />
short ImageArray[IMAGE_SIZE_X][IMAGE_SIZE_Y];<br />
<br />
char *FileName = C:\Image.asc;<br />
<br />
ifstream ImageFile;<br />
ImageFile.open(FileName);<br />
<br />
for(i=0; i<IMAGE_SIZE_Y; ++i)<br />
{<br />
for(j=0; j<IMAGE_SIZE_X; j++)<br />
ImageFile >> ImageArray[i][j];<br />
}<br />
ImageFile.close();
I know I'm reading it wrong but I don't know the correct way to do it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've seen a few programs out there that are very small in size and actually do something (ex.: .kkreiger)... When I look at their import functions list I see only LoadLibrary and GetProcAddress. The question is: How do you remove all those additional dependencies from your programs (C++)?

Hi,
I'm resizing the workarea of Windows in the initialization of my program so that my application will show always, like taskbar.
My problem is that sometimes, not always, the workarea reverts back to the original size.
It usually takes 1-20 seconds after I start my app to happen.
Any ideas on what is causing this behaviour and more importantly how to fix it?
I'm using Visual C++ 6 and my app is dialog based using mfc.
thanks

I have a group of header and source files that I want to compile into a library to be linked in my program.
How can i do that in Microsoft Visual Studio 6 ??
Thanks in advance

Your DDX section refers to a resource id that isn't present in your dialog or view.

Well,
it on; CDialog::OnInitDialog(); And if I take it away I get this error; ASSERT(::IsWindow(m_hWnd));
So how can I fix that?

Buy a book. Seriously, the error messages are telling you what's wrong, did you consider researching what that means youself ? What do you think the line above means ?

Yeee,
Well that dont help me.
I dont want to delite that line so how can I keep it and still run the program?
|
|

Look, I didn't tell you to delete a line, I suggest you take some steps to learn how to program.
It's more helpful than you think. If you don't learn to do your own research, you will never be able to code anything for yourself. These are simple issues with the way you've set up your MFC project, although to be honest, at this stage your descriptions are too vague for me to know exactly what you need to do. It sounds like you DO need to delete the line in question, it sounds like you're trying to call updatedata, or some other operation that is not valid where you're doing it, because the window has not been created yet.

The OnInitDialog() method has nothing to do with the problem. Ravi has explained, in detail, what the problem is and how to rectify it. Every control ID referenced in the DoDataExchange() method must also be present in the dialog template. For example:
void CWorkFlowTab::DoDataExchange(CDataExchange* pDX)
{
CPropertyPage::DoDataExchange(pDX);
DDX_Control(pDX, IDC_WFS_XB_ACTIVE, m_xbActive);
DDX_Control(pDX, IDC_WFS_CB_RECIPIENT, m_cbRecipient);
DDX_Control(pDX, IDC_WFS_CB_MESSAGE, m_cbMessage);
DDX_Control(pDX, IDC_WFS_XB_COMPL, m_xbCompleted);
DDX_Control(pDX, IDC_WFS_CB_RECIPIENT2, m_cbRecipient2);
DDX_Control(pDX, IDC_WFS_CB_MESSAGE2, m_cbMessage2);
}If any of the six IDC_xxx controls are missing from the dialog template (in the .rc file), I will get a run-time error such as the one you got.
