Error with 'System.NullReferenceException' [modified]

I had written :

for(int i=0; i <10; i++){<br />
  em[i]->pct = (gcnew System::Windows::Forms::PictureBox());<br />
  em[i]->pct->Location = System::Drawing::Point(250, 250);<br />
  em[i]->pct->Visible = true;<br />
  em[i]->pct->Size = System::Drawing::Size(50, 50);<br />
}

And I got this error :

An unhandled exception of type 'System.NullReferenceException' occurred in Little tanks.exe

Additional information: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

at this line : em[i]->pct = (gcnew System::Windows::Forms::PictureBox());

what did I do wrong?

How have you defined the em array?

em[i] is null, you probably created an array and didn't create the objects in it

the em array defined so : static array<tank^>^ em;
and tank is structure :

ref struct tank {<br />
 int step_x, step_y;  <br />
 System::Windows::Forms::PictureBox^ pct;<br />
};

What do you mean saying to create objects for array? Smile | :)

You have not initialized array here.
Array can be initialized as given in MSDN example.

array<MyClass ^> ^ MyArray = gcnew array<MyClass ^>(100);

Would interesting to see, how you have done that. There are two possiblitites,
1. You have not allocated memory for it.
2. You are accessing invalid index.

Here, you had made couple of mistakes,

thesad wrote:
array^ em = gcnew array(10);
array^ b_em = gcnew array(10);

Here, again you are defining local variables. It should be like this,

this->em = gcnew array<tank^>(10);
this->b_em = gcnew array<tank^>(10);

Again, simply defining array doesn't initializes its members, you need to allocate tank variable for each index. So, your code can be modified like this,

thesad wrote:
for(int i=0; i <10; i++){
this->em[i]->pct = gcnew System::Windows::Forms::PictureBox();
this->em[i]->pct->Location = System::Drawing::Point(250, 250);

Modify this to,

for(int i=0; i <10; i++){
em[i] = gcnew tank;//create tank object for each index
this->em[i]->pct = gcnew System::Windows::Forms::PictureBox();
this->em[i]->pct->Location = System::Drawing::Point(250, 250);
//your code follows

If you create a new Array, of 100 tank objects, you have an array with 100 instances of null. You need it iterate over the array, and say

myArray[x] = new gcnew tank();

to create the actual objects in the array.

where x is the index into the array ( you'd probably do this in a loop )

Hi all,

I have an application in vc6,in that i am using XP style.

The way I am giving XP Style to my application is by adding an XML File

to my resource . The content of the Xml file is given below

/******************************************************************************/

<assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1"
="" manifestversion="1.0">
<assemblyidentity
version="1.0.0.0"

="" name="Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls" version="6.0.0.0" processorarchitecture="X86" publickeytoken="6595b64144ccf1df" language="*">

/****************************************************************************/

It is working fine in VC6 .

But, when I compile my application in Visual Studio 2005 , this is not working . How can I make it work.

Please Help me

Thanks
Vinod

Remove the .manifest file from your resources (along with its reference in the .rc file). Then, go to Project Properties / Configuration Properties / Linker / Manifest File, and set Generate Manifest to Yes. Don't forget to call InitCommonControls in your InitInstance function.

This is not a C++/CLI question though, so you're in a wrong forum. Use Visual C++ / MFC[^] forum to discuss non-.NET C++ issues.

Serial Port - Remote Control

16-Feb-07 11:24

hey folks

I just found this old remote control from Pinnacle Systems and wanted to code an application (in C++/CLI) which uses the RC, means: respond to key presses on the RC (volume up/down etc).
It has an infrared receiver (no extra power or so is needed), which I connected to my serial port (luckily I got one on my new computer!).
The question is, how can I receive messages?
I already opened the port (COM1), but no messages were received Frown | :(

Is there any driver-stuff I need or something?
any C++/CLI code is appreciated!

thx in advance Smile | :)

problem with Random

I had written a program and I need use Random class, so I wrote :

Random^ i = gcnew Random();<br />
for(int i=0; i<10; i++) {<br />
  em[i]->pct->Left = i->Next(min_x, max_x);<br />
  em[i]->pct->Top = i->Next(min_y, max_y);<br />
}

em is static array< tank^ >^ em;
and tank is :

ref struct tank {<br />
  int step_x, step_y;  <br />
  System::Windows::Forms::PictureBox^ pct;<br />
};

but I get an error : error C2227: left of '->Next' must point to class/struct/union/generic type type is 'int'

Where is problem??
