when you have a method prototype as such:
<code>
void setCacheBlocks(vector<cacheblock> const &value);
</cacheblock></code>
and an implementation as such:
<code>
void Simulator::setCacheBlocks(vector<cacheblock> const & value)
{
m_CacheBlock = value;
}
</cacheblock></code>
And when you run the code, the size of items in the vector is correct, but the actual contents of each object contained by the vector magically disappears?
here's what's actually happening (keep in mind this is a mutation of several generations)
<code>
void Simulator::Simulate()
{
Splash();
getUserSettings();
cout.clear();
cout << "Reading trace file..." << endl;
GetData();
sleep(2);
cout << "\nData read.\nStarting Simulation..." << endl;
sleep(1);
// simulation start
//create the data blocks and the cache sets
//create the Cache Blocks
CreateCacheBlocks();
//create the Cache Sets
CreateCacheSets();
}
void Simulator::CreateCacheBlocks()
{
uint numBlocks = getSettings().getCacheSize()/getSettings().getBlocksSize();
uint maxOffset = getSettings().getOffsetParity();
uint bTag = getSettings().getTagParity();
uint bIndex = getSettings().getIndexParity();
bool isValid = false;
char* bData = new char[maxOffset - 1]; //just to make it 0 based
for(int i = 0; i < maxOffset; i++)
{
bData[i] = NULL;
}
vector<cacheblock> v;
CacheBlock cb;
cb.Initialize(maxOffset,bTag,bIndex,isValid,bData);
cb.setSettings(m_Settings);
//initialize each cache block to an initial state
for(uint i = 0; i < numBlocks; i++)
{
cb.setBlockNumber(i);
cb.setBlockAddress(cb.CalculateBlockAddress(i));
v.push_back(cb);
}
//TODO: fix this ASAP
//setCacheBlocks(v);
m_CacheBlock = v;
}
void Simulator::CreateCacheSets()
{
uint numBlocks = getSettings().getCacheSize()/getSettings().getBlocksSize();
uint numSets = numBlocks/getSettings().getCacheAssociativity();
uint numBlocksPerSet = numBlocks / numSets;
CacheSet cs;
cs.setSettings(getSettings());
vector<cacheset> v;
//create the correct number of sets and assign their set indexes
for(uint i = 0; i < numSets; i++)
{
cs.setSetIndex(i);
v.push_back(cs);
}
int k = v.size();
CacheBlock cb;
//assign each cache block to its set
uint setIx = 0;
for(uint i = 0; i < numBlocks; i++)
{
setIx = getCacheBlocks()[i].getBlockAddress() << getSettings().getTagParity();
setIx >>= getSettings().getTagParity();
//cb = getCacheBlocks()[i];
cb = m_CacheBlock[i]; //this statement should be exactly like the preceding one in worth
v[setIx].getCacheBlocks().push_back(cb);
}
setCacheSet(v);
}
</cacheset></cacheblock></code>
If you look to the method Simulate, everything works fine, including CreateCacheBlocks(), but things go belly up in CreateCacheSets().
Yes, I know I shouldn't be using getXX()/setXX() but this is the second time I've had to deal with this Prof and he's old and really old school and doesn't want to get with the times of using overloaded methods.

Your post is very difficult to read (don't check the "ignore html tags" otherwise the code tags won't work).
You are talking about danling pointers. Where are those pointers because I don't see any pointers in your code...

Could you explain that with a bit more details ? You mean that the contents of all the cacheblock objects stored in your vector are destroyed ? Can you show the details of the cacheblock class ?

Stuff like vector<xyz> v aren't obvious then.
I assumed there are dangling pointers because the objects have values that are not what they were so its like a temporary value that has disappeared.

Precisely.
I'll email them since they're on my Linux VM and for some reason, the bidirectional clipboard just stopped working.

You have no explicit pointers in your code. It's more likely that you have a dangling reference - possibly a reference to a local that disappeared when a function completed?
I presume you've stepped through with the debugger, seeing when the values of the objects change? Setting a data breakpoint can help.

I did that in the following two postings back to Cedric. I was being lazy I suppose.

Aha! Live and re-learn.

Certainly. I program in C# and previously Java. The last time I touched C++ was almost 8 years ago, coupled with what I believe is an extremely lacking IDE (netbeans 6.5) on Linux is proving a pain. Gimme Eclipse or VS any day. This is why I seem to be asking really pathetically sounding questions
I come and post after I've given up and then its a matter of re-learning.

Looking at your code, m_Settings and m_BlockData in CacheBlock are certainly iffy. You copy pointers to these items, but I suspect you should really copy the contents. Especially when (from the Simulator::CreateCacheBlocks code) it looks like all your cache-blocks will be sharing the same block data with your current implementation.
Memory management in C++ certainly can be a pain - that's why I try to always use objects that manage it for you, such as std::vectors or Boost shared pointers/shared arrays[^].

Sadly Stuart, those are the two I'm not having problems with. Its the rest of the class.
If you'll look below, that's where all the fuss is happening.
I'd like to direct your kind attention to the methods CreateCacheBlocks() and CreateCacheSets() in particular the latter. It is then that the contents of the CacheBlock object retrieved by getCacheBlocks()[i] is incorrect and that is where I'm losing my mind because it was in the preceding function CreateCacheBlocks() that I set the values (correctly I might add).
If you're wondering what this is, its the framework for a cache simulator for my Computer Arch II class at university where after I'm supposed to be simulating different algorithms and trying to make them better through changing one thing or another.

I'm a f**king idiot. I've built your code and stepped through it with GDB (well, Xcode on my Mac) and just realised what the problem is, when it should have been immediately obvious.
The trouble is your copy constructors - they're not doing anything! Which means that as they're used when copying items into a vector using push_back, the vector gets set with empty items.
Anyway - you can rely on the default copy constructor and assignment operator if member-wise copy is adequate for your structure. Member-wise is fine unless you need to do some sort of resource management (e.g. memory allocation/deallocation).
Hope that sorts you out!

OK, firstly, Stu, let me just say thank you for being so patient in helping me solve this continuing issue. Your patience is model.
Secondly, I have discovered another problem and I've easily spent 4 hours on it trying to figure out how the hell its happening. Really, in the class "Simulator" even though we have
<br />
vector<cacheset> getCacheSet() const;<br />
void setCacheSet(vector<cacheset> const & value);<br />
<br />
vector<cacheblock> getCacheBlock() const;<br />
void setCacheBlock(vector<cacheblock> const & value);<br />
</cacheblock></cacheblock></cacheset></cacheset>
the actions are local to that subroutine (I'm looking at CreateCacheBlocks() and CreateCacheSets()) and are not acting on the class instance. Ultimately, the question is why? How can I be moving in a proper functional sequence in 2 different instances? What the hell am I forgetting?
I've implemented the copy constructors for the CacheSet and CacheBlock classes as you've suggested and they've alleviated the previous problems, but somehow, I get the feeling that the current issue I'm facing is a continuation of the previous one.

Not really sure what you mean - what are you seeing vs what would you expect to see?

Basically, when I'm calling CreateCacheBlocks() I'm creating a vector of CacheBlock objects, initialized to whatever initial values it should have determined by user input previously acquired in the application (currently simply defaulting it). CreateCacheSets() is supposed to create a number of sets (dependent on the associativity selected) after which, it assigns specific CacheBlocks to each set (basic Cache and Cache Associativity).
What I've noticed is that CreateCacheBlocks() creates the vector and its contents correctly and I've checked this at the end of the method and as soon as I exit the method back to the method Simulate, however, when the call to CreateCacheSets is made, the vector CacheBlocks is empty. How the hell did that happen?
|
|
|
|
|
That still sounds like copy constructor or assignment operator issues - could you post the code for those that you've now implemented?
|
|
|
|

Sorry this took some time, my system just crashed and I spent the last hour just restoring order.
Here's the Copy Constructors:
<br />
CacheSet(const CacheSet& orig);
<br />
CacheSet::CacheSet(const CacheSet& orig)
{<br />
setSettings(orig.getSettings());<br />
setBlockCount(orig.getBlockCount());<br />
setBlockSize(orig.getBlockSize());<br />
setSetIndex(orig.getSetIndex());<br />
setCacheBlocks(orig.getCacheBlocks());<br />
}<br />
<br />
CacheBlock(const CacheBlock& orig);
<br />
CacheBlock::CacheBlock(const CacheBlock& orig)
{<br />
setSettings(orig.getSettings());<br />
setBlockAddress(orig.getBlockAddress());<br />
setBlockData(orig.getBlockData());<br />
setBlockIndex(orig.getBlockIndex());<br />
setBlockTag(orig.getBlockTag());<br />
setBlockNumber(orig.getBlockNumber());<br />
setIsValid(orig.getIsValid());<br />
setMaxBlockOffset(orig.getMaxBlockOffset());<br />
setTimeStamp(orig.getTimeStamp());<br />
}<br />
|

Mmmm - I'm not seeing what you're seeing - m_CacheBlocks retains its value. However, I've found some more issues in your code:
getCacheBlocks returns the cache-block vector by value - try returning by const reference instead:
vector<CacheBlock> const & getCacheBlocks() const; - Some of your setter functions take a
uint by non-const reference - they should probably be by value (that's fine with plain old data like integers) or const reference. VC++ complained about it, anyway.

I have taken your advice and currently have given up developing on Linux, I can't make good use of my time using IDEs that I don't have much experience in and on top of that using a language that I obviously am completely out of practice with (MUCH more so than I thought  )
I've moved back to Windows (VS2008) at least the debugger is something of an old friend. I'll keep you posted mate.
Thanks a zillion.

I've pinpointed the exact location where the error takes place.
Guess what? Its a const correctness issue.
Simulator::CreateCacheSets()
{
...
getCacheSets[setIx].getCacheBlocks().push_back(getCacheBlocks()[i]);
...
}
getCacheBlocks() returns a const object. I'm surprised a compile time error was not thrown. Do I overload the method?
[update]
I've fixed it, but its the ugliest hack I've ever done.
<br />
<br />
vector<cacheblock> cbs;<br />
for(uint i = 0; i < numBlocks; i++)<br />
{<br />
ba = getCacheBlocks()[i].getBlockAddress();<br />
setIx = ba % numSets;<br />
cbs = v[setIx].getCacheBlocks();<br />
cbs.push_back(this->getCacheBlocks()[i]);<br />
v[setIx].setCacheBlocks(cbs);<br />
}<br />
</cacheblock>
Just sick and as ugly as sin.
Stuart, thanks a million mate for all your patience. When I do pass by Brittania, an hour's worth of pints is on me

You can't overload purely on return type - in C++ (unlike Ada), function signatures don't include return types.
I may have given you some bad advice suggesting you return by const reference - a non-const reference would be better in this case.

I won't judge.
It has become so obvious (to me) that I've been living a life of decadence between Java and C#. I need to rough it up. From now on, all University projects will be in C++.

I might have missed an angle bracket or two...

I'm currently done with the source code.
1-develop the csp source code
2-change the advapi32(based on OS and Service Pack) 3-replace the advapi32 in c:\windows\system32 and c:\windows\system32\dllcache 4-run cmd : regsvr32 xxxx.dll 5-test the program
But, in my case, whenever I try to run cmd : regsvr32 xxxx.dll, I will always get the error msg :
DllRegisterServer in xxxx.dll failed. Return code was: 0x80090006.
FYI, I replace all the value for advapi32.dll from the website (change the offset).
I replace the advapi32.dll by following the step:
1-For WIN XP SP3, I replace the advapi32.dll by running in Safe Mode, rename the current advapi32.dll to advapi32.bak, paste the new file there.
Is there anything that I forgot?

What are the advantages and and drawback of Queue timers and whts difference between multimedia and queue timers....
|

Check out Stuart's links here[^].
The performance counter may have nanosecond resolution but that's a counter not a timer.
Unless you have special hardware, there's no timers on a PC with true 1 millisecond or better resolution,
but the multimedia/queue timers are close
