Hi,
Just wanted to point out that you should choose the right STL container. The vector is designed for sequential insertion/access. If you want to frequently insert at both ends then you should consider using a std::deque
Best Wishes,

Thanks for your tip, at this point I`m still not sure what I want to use.

This should likely be in a lounge rant, but it is technical.
I have a project on a system that I need to compile to fix an issue. The issue is trivial. But when I go to Build...all it gives me is "Run Code Analysis on Solution". 
I've reset permissions on the folder, I have made sure 2015 is up to date, but 2015 won't give me the prompts.
What am I missing?

Did you try to Rebuild All (or how is it exactly called in VS2015? - I cannot recall ...)?
|
|

It's not in the menu. This is maddening

How about:
Rebuild <project>
Rebuild solution
in the menu "Build"?
Or just "Clear solution"?

Check that your .vcxproj files are there. If they are, check the Properties of your project(s) to see if their dependencies are correct and if they generally make sense.

Weird, never figured it out. Pulled the project from a zip file, and it built.
Appreciate all the suggestions.

This is what is in the Build tab: image-2022-04-22-062801040 — ImgBB[^]
This code lives on a VM that was migrated into a zero trust cloud. I can go back to the original VM, and 2015 there has the full build menu.

As I recall, Visual Studio has never supported working with solutions that are located on network/remote drives.
Are you working with Visual Studio on the virtual machine where the solution resides?

No, I just RDP into it. Nothing too fancy.

A STL container is not your typical c++ class, how do you declare a vector pointer and pass it to a function.
class someclass
{
public:
int ID;
}
void somefunction(vector<someclass>* vec)
{
someclass scitem;
vec->push_back(scitem);
}
vector<someclass>* vec;
somefunction(vec);
I`m also not sure how a vector of pointers would work.
void somefunction(vector<someclass>* vec)
{
someclass * scitem;
scitem = (someclass*)malloc(sizeof(someclass));
vec->push_back(scitem);
}
vector<someclass*>* vec2;
somefuntion(vec2);

Yes, STL containers are just template classes and can be manipulated the same as any class objects. And as such, a vector may contain objects, or pointers to objects. But remember in the second case that the items pointed to, must not be removed while the vector still owns them.
std::vector<char*>* pMyvec = new std::vector<char*>(); pMyvec->push_back("A string");
pMyvec->push_back("Another string");
int result = myfun(pMyvec);
BTW you should not use malloc in C++ code, as new and delete is the correct way to manage memory.

Quote: And as such, a vector may contain objects, or pointers to objects
But when you add a class object, the vector doesn`t make a copy of the object, it creates a pointer to the object being added. A linked list deals with pointers not objects.

If you add an object to an STL container (vector, list, set, map...), the object is copied into the container. The objects must all be of the same type, however. The only way to put polymorphic objects into a container is to use a container of pointers to their common base class, in which case the objects need to survive outside the container, probably by having been allocated from the heap.

thanks Greg, I`ll keep that in mind.

No, the vector copies whatever type you have declared it with. For example:
std::vector<std::string> myVec;
std::string newstr = "A string";
myVec.push_back(newstr);

Well sometimes it does; but what has that to do with this question?
