Re: What is special about Dispose() methods?

Dispose() is a function inherited from the IDisposable interface. Its meant to implement the "Dispose pattern" to enable some form of immediate destructors in managed code. In C# you can call Dispose() on objects that will perform some clean up functions (like closing streams and such). In C++/CLI Dispose() is mapped to the class destructor by the compiler. You can't explicitly invoke Dispose() (nor write one). Instead, if an object encapsulating a resource needs some clean up done immediately (rather than waiting for the garbage collector) call either a Close() type function (which itself should only call the destructor I believe) or use delete (or declare the variable with stack semantics and have the destructor called automatically when the variable goes out of scope).

This bit me a bit when I recently migrated to VS 2005.

Here's an article that may help (even though the article is about porting to 2005, it contains relevant info about destructors and Dispose):

Thank you for bringing the subject up....it reminded me I needed to finish some porting of my code
from managed extensions (VS 2003).

In case you haven't already come across these:

Dispose from the .NET framework point-of-view:

and specifically for Managed C++:

Step 2: Do a little research. Everything you need to know to create a working dialog is at the

High performance mathematics libraries.

Hello friends,

I’m going to develop some application using C++, Linux platform. I need information about mathematics libraries which have following features –

1) Matrix manipulation –
a) It should support Matrix multiplication, Inverse, Transpose, etc functionality on large data set say 1 million rows and columns.
b) Finding Min or Max element by row or column.

2) Providing sort function which would sort matrix.

3) Algorithm used for sorting of matrix is most important because as per my knowledge Heap sort gives the best performance over larger dataset.

4) Any functionality to sort a data set which accepts a row / column from a matrix. i.e. Sorting function receives row / column of a matrix as parameter & returns sorted set of elements or sorted set of indices of that matrix.

Thnx & regards,

Shashikant

Yesterday, you said C++ .NET, and I suggested that you needed to work out if you meant .NET, or if you wanted to use MFC or Win32. I also said C# is a better language than C++/CLI for Winforms ( forms with .NET ). So, now you're in the C++/CLI forum, and you're saying Win32. I'm sorry, but this question is in the wrong forum, yesterday you said .NET in the Visual C++ forum, and today you say 'Win32' in the C++/CLI forum. I recommend doing some reading to make sure you get your terminology right.

Programming Windows by Charles Petzold is THE book on Win32 programming, although I cannot imagine why anyone would want to use Win32 today. MFC is a far better option.

If you're using the C++ Express Edition, MFC is not an option, which may be why you're asking about Win32. Really, it's a bad idea. Learn C# instead, Win32 is too much like hard work, and Winforms is better supported in C#. You already found out how few people read this forum, compared to the other ones.

Hi,

I would create a table who every cas was : array < String ^, 2 > ^ tab=gcnew array < String ^, 2 > (20, 200);

i try for array < String ^, 3 > ^ tab=gcnew array < String ^, 3 > (20, 200);, i can't make : tab[1][2]= subItems when array<string^>^ subItems=gcnew array<string^>(16);

Thank you verry mutch

I don't understand what you're trying to do, but I see right away that you're trying to create a 3 dimension array
with only two arguments in the constructor.

What happened to our previous thread? I thought you needed an array of arrays...

tab needs to be defined to hold the type that subitem is. You didn't show what subitem is in your first post.

That's not valid. Your arrays need to have a type.

You have a bunch of things wrong here. Do you have an understanding of C++ arrays?
They are strongly typed, like the whole language is.

To define an array you have to specify a type - this won't work:
array^ subItems=gcnew array(16);

Now to add this array type to your multi-dimension array, that multidimensioned array must be defined to hold an array type -
the type of subItems, which you haven't defined.

If you have an array with three dimensions then you must access members of the array using three arguments.

you've created a rectangular multidimensional array rather than a jagged one. As such, you need to access elements like this tab[i,j] rather than tab[i][j] (which you would do for a jagged array in C++/CLI)

Are you trying to do something like this:

	array<array<String^>^, 3>^ sub2 = 
		gcnew array<array<String^>^,3>(10, 10, 10);
 
	array<String^>^ subitems = gcnew array<String^>(15);
 
	subitems[0] = "one";
	subitems[1] = "two";
 
	sub2[0, 0, 0] = subitems;
	 
	Console::WriteLine(sub2[0, 0, 0][0]);
