what do you mean by some working sample app?

BerthaDusStuf 12-Nov-18 15:30pm View

I tried using a solid color and it still showed nothing. Also void main() is correct but thanks.

BerthaDusStuf 25-Jul-18 14:20pm View

I am not trying to get you to do my work for me, I just dont know about this topic and although I know that it is probably good to read around preprocesing and compilation and things like that, but I dont have time and I think it is doable without it. If you dont want to help thats fine but Im not looking to read into preprocessing compiling and linkking right now

BerthaDusStuf 25-Jul-18 4:53am View

User-2223753 thanks for the suggestion but I dont havee much time to learn this so I am trying to learn to set it up as quickly as possible

BerthaDusStuf 23-Jul-18 18:21pm View

Also I dont actually know what I am doing by going to project, build options-search directories-compiler(or linker) and selecting files. I just followed a tutorial but could you explain abit about what I am doing there. And also what am I doing in build-options-linker settings? I dont really know much so please explain simply. thanks

Ok thanks I have made adjustments so that now my glad folder is part of my project folder so but I am still getting the error. I also tried putting it in quotations like this: #include "glad/glad.h" and it still hasn't worked. It is the same errors that came up though. Do you have any other suggestions?

BerthaDusStuf 15-Jul-18 5:36am View

ok thanks

BerthaDusStuf 5-Jul-18 16:26pm View

its ok my problem is solved

BerthaDusStuf 5-Jul-18 16:25pm View

It is ok my problem is solved

BerthaDusStuf 5-Jul-18 4:40am View

Ok thanks, very easy to understand and well structured answer

BerthaDusStuf 4-Jul-18 17:39pm View

"So that you could do something like list1 = list2 = list3 = list4 = ..."

Is this because it is like writing:
list1.operator=(list2.operator=(list3.operator=(list4)))

"You probably need to look inside the insert method to figure out if anything happens there"

But the insert method doesnt take p_itr as a parameter so it can not modify it, it takes a value pointed to by p_itr. This could just be a mistake in the book but I just didn't want to assume so before checking with people who know better.

"Not correct. In fact this is the signature for a copy constructor like Player(const Player& other);"

Sorry I meant assignment operator not copy constructor. Is operator=(const Player& other); a valid definition for a copy constructor because there is no type given.

BerthaDusStuf 4-Jul-18 17:10pm View

Ok thanks

BerthaDusStuf 4-Jul-18 17:09pm View

Oh ok sorry I didnt realise, I mean assignment operator definition

BerthaDusStuf 4-Jul-18 16:07pm View

The defining of the class is in the enemy_definitions.h file under the definition for the enemies class and then the implementation of its constructor and print_information() function are in the enemy_definitions.cpp file

BerthaDusStuf 4-Jul-18 16:02pm View

Ok I changed it to public but it is still giving me the multiple declarations of robots::robots error

BerthaDusStuf 4-Jul-18 15:59pm View

Ok sorry about that and ok thanks I will try changing it to public

BerthaDusStuf 4-Jul-18 7:12am View

But it is the class that is calling print_information. I created a class called Bertha and called print_information on the class itself so the function being private shouldnt be a problem

BerthaDusStuf 3-Jul-18 14:54pm View

Also when you do enemy::print_information(), firstly does this just paste the code from enemy print_information? Secondly, if it does just paste the code then it will be pasting code that will be trying to access private members of enemy which haven't been inherited by robot because robot only receives public members of enemies so why does that code work?

BerthaDusStuf 3-Jul-18 14:44pm View

that is all of the code and I said the error is on line 8 of enemy_definitions.cpp

BerthaDusStuf 3-Jul-18 6:37am View

ok thanks well I have found the fix to my problem and it was because I never actually defined the print_information function in the enemies superclass but now I have another problem so Im going to update my question

BerthaDusStuf 3-Jul-18 6:13am View

I think it is meant to be able to work without using override or the value initialization because neither of those things were taught in the book I am reading. Is there not just an error I can fix to make it work?

BerthaDusStuf 3-Jul-18 5:37am View

I dont know what override does and also you used these brackets {} after declaring variables. I havent seen that before but I have seen these brackets () after variables to put something into their constructor.

BerthaDusStuf 3-Jul-18 5:34am View

Thanks for the semi colon and the only other information it gives is the line number is 16 and the file is enemy_definitions.h

BerthaDusStuf 29-Jun-18 18:20pm View

ok thanks

BerthaDusStuf 29-Jun-18 18:18pm View

ok thanks

BerthaDusStuf 28-Jun-18 9:54am View

yes I read your answer quite alot but im struggling to understand what you mean.
For example here:
"He was initializing the field at the time of object creation, rather after that."
my question is well wouldnt doing string whose_move = "white" also be initialising the field at the time of object creation?

BerthaDusStuf 28-Jun-18 5:29am View

Ok but what is the difference between passing "white" into the constructor and setting the string equal to white when it is declared?

BerthaDusStuf 28-Jun-18 3:49am View

sorry i dont understand very well

BerthaDusStuf 14-Jun-18 12:17pm View

Ok thanks

BerthaDusStuf 14-Jun-18 12:16pm View

Ok thanks

BerthaDusStuf 14-Jun-18 12:12pm View

Ok thanks

BerthaDusStuf 13-Jun-18 14:50pm View

oh ok thanks, also do you know whether maps are built like arrays or like linked lists or what sort of data structure are they?

BerthaDusStuf 12-Jun-18 17:19pm View

So it is the fact that u can use a variable to get an index that makes them good for searching?

BerthaDusStuf 9-Jun-18 16:06pm View

ok ty

BerthaDusStuf 9-Jun-18 6:32am View

Ok thanks I dont really know how to use the debugger and I plan on learning soon but I understand the code and it works as expected but I just think that it only works in some cases

BerthaDusStuf 8-Jun-18 19:11pm View

ok thanks

BerthaDusStuf 23-Mar-18 10:50am View

Yes I am going through a book in order of chapters and I have got an idea of what classes are aswell but I dont have much knoledge on the syntax of them and how to implement them.

BerthaDusStuf 19-Mar-18 18:17pm View

Ok thanks someone suggested earlier that I should use new and now I see how.

BerthaDusStuf 19-Mar-18 18:15pm View

Oh thanks for the solution but I dont really know how to use classes very well and a few other things that you have used in you code, I am only making this for the purpose of practicing using linked lists but thanks, sorry I should have made it clear that I needed to do it using linked lists

BerthaDusStuf 19-Mar-18 18:12pm View

Ok thanks I don't know how to use the debugger but Ill look into it

BerthaDusStuf 19-Mar-18 18:02pm View

So is what your saying is using new allows you to name multiple variables the same thing? Also what example?

BerthaDusStuf 19-Mar-18 16:49pm View

Oh I think I saw other examples of using a loop to create multiple items in a linked list using the same variable name each loop but I think that example was using new to get memory from the free store. Is it the fact that I am not utilizing the free store that means I can not name the variable the same thing each time?

BerthaDusStuf 19-Mar-18 16:06pm View

ok i will try to learn it

BerthaDusStuf 19-Mar-18 15:43pm View

No I dont really know how to use the debugger

BerthaDusStuf 16-Mar-18 20:33pm View

oh ok but then I tried running that program and it changed the value of it so it didnt compare, it actually assigned it that value

Hi thanks for your reply, yes i do know what the & does and i also have a fair bit of knoledge on pointers but i still dont know why there is a double equals there rather than single. is that something ill learn about or is there just a simple explanation for it? also i dont want to do it without the ampersand because i want it to have the same backing memory rather than make a copy

BerthaDusStuf 7-Mar-18 3:51am View

Thanks for the reply. I dont think it would take the address of the list but it would just take the address of that ship because each ship has its own individual address but I now can see how it would work without taking the address of the pointer.

BerthaDusStuf 7-Mar-18 3:49am View

hi sorry I took so long to reply, because of school but thanks for your reply, I now understand why it doesn't have to point to the address of the next enemy because that would meant to get the values of the next enemy you would have to dereference twice to get the values of the enemy but I still think it would work if it did, you could just dereference twice to get the values of the enemy and I dont see why it would point to unallocated memory as when p_enemies was declared it would have been given a valid memory address.
