dev-cpp-users Mailing List for Dev-C++ (Page 30)

Attention Group

Is it possable to add a bit of class to the group my name is Eric, I am not too sure why the "bro" after all we are not in a Email group for coal miners .
If you would like me to help you with the C++ request I hope I enjoy taking out time to help you.  

While I am not up to speed to Per Westermark standards of C++, some times the someone elses answer come together with the question as I mainly get Email twice a day, The question to this thread came about midnight when I down loaded emails, I went to bed late so I could answer the question, I was not too sure if it was C or C++ or a hybrid question (C and C++ combined)         

Thankyou from Eric

    Hello,

    I would like to know if i have a value held in a float variable, how would I

    I'm using Dev C++ Ver. 4 ..I know that to fix a floating point number I

Hello,

Bellow is a code example of some window creating.
I would like to know.
I am not sure because newbie to this window stuff and always seemed it to me 
somehow like a mystery.
So let's say I want to have another type of the cursor. So can I put the 
type as a parameter to WinMain function?
When I  tried write down WinMain() like
WinMain()
without the parameters it shows errors about conflict with the prototype.
And if what data type should it be.
It is a member of some structure wc.Cursor but i am not sure what to deal 
with this.

Thanks a lot

Jan Mura
jan...@vo...

The code:
#include<windows.h>

#include "main.h"

int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,
LPSTR lpCmdLine, int nCmdShow)
{
const char g_szClassName[] = "TheWindow";
WNDCLASSEX wc;
HWND hwnd;
MSG Msg;

/*fill out the member of a window class */
wc.cbSize        = sizeof(WNDCLASSEX); /* the size of the structure */
wc.style         = 0; /* style of the class, usually can be set to 0 */
wc.lpfnWndProc   = WndProc; /- pointer to the window procedure - see
function WndProc() */
wc.cbClsExtra    = 0; /* amount of extra data allocated, usually set to
0 */
wc.cbWndExtra    = 0; /* amount of data allocated for the type of a
window, usually set to 0 */
wc.hInstance     = hInstance;
wc.hIcon         = LoadIcon(NULL, IDI_APPLICATION); /* big icon */
wc.hCursor       = LoadCursor(NULL, IDC_ARROW);  /* type of the cursor
shown */
wc.hbrBackground = (HBRUSH)(COLOR_WINDOW+1); /* color of the window */
wc.lpszMenuName  = NULL; /* name of a menu resources */
wc.lpszClassName = g_szClassName; /* the name to identify the class
wc.hIconSm       = LoadIcon(NULL, IDI_APPLICATION); /* small icon */

}

LRESULT CALLBACK WndProc(HWND hwnd, UINT msg, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
switch(msg)
{
case WM_CLOSE:
DestroyWindow(hwnd);
break;
case WM_DESTROY:
PostQuitMessage(0);
break;
default:
return DefWindowProc(hwnd, msg, wParam, lParam);
}
return 0;
}

Ummmm did you want the answer for c or c++
here it is for C, try this out
=================================
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
float x=1;


using namespace std;

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{

cout << "1/3 =" << x/3 << "\n";
 printf("1/3 = %.9f \n", x/3);
    system("PAUSE");
    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
==============================

printf("1/3 = %.9f \n", x/3);

the %.9f will give the answer to 9 decimal places

There 'll be iostream(header file name) inside angled bracket after #include

Thanks for your reply. But i don't get what you're saying(My fault...sorry).

#include 

using namespace std;
int a_func()
{
   int main = 5;
   return main;
}

int main()
{
   int a_var = a_func();

   return 0;
}


The above code compiles fine on my system. Here "main" is a variable defined in a 
function called a_func() and main() function is also used. I know that main is
used as a variable when used in a statement like

return main;

because there's no parenthesis following the name of the variable. But if it were
a function i would've used:

return main();

Wouldn't I? So you can easily differentiate between the two. can you explain a little bit 
more why this code can cause a problem as the author states that?

I am trying to learn c++ by reading a book named "C++ Primer Plus". In that book
author made a statement that when writing a program that has a main function 
defined can also have a variable named "main".

"You can use "main" as a variable name. This can cause a problem in circumstances
too esoteric to describe here."

So in a program that has a main() function can also have a variable named main. But
what can be the circumstance in which it can cause problem? Can anyone kindly
shed light into this? I can't think of anything. Thanks.

hi,
 
I have got this information from somebody.  As I have tried to setup in Bloodshed Dev-C++ 4.9.9.2 environment but still couldn't figure out how to set it up.  The instructions shown below is based on Quincy environment.  I have got the files p_io.h and p_io.c.  As this issue is related to [Linker error] Undefined Reserence after adding the file p_io.h in the C include directory.  How to set it up in bloodshed IDE?  Thanks in advance.
 
OK, I've figured it out. The issue was that p_io.h only contains function prototypes but the actual code is in p_io.c. Here's what you need to do: - Open p_io.c in Quincy. - Go to Tools > Options. Uncheck "Strict ANSI/ISO Compliance" (or else you will get errors compiling p_io.c) - Go to Project > Build, you should get a 'Successful Build' message. - In the same directory as p_io.c you should now see a new file p_io.o - Create a new directory anywhere on your system. For example, you may go to c:\program files\quincy and create custom_lib - Move p_io.h to the include directory inside your Quincy directory. - Move p_io.o to the custom_lib directory that you just made. - In Quincy, go to Tools > Options - (Optional) Check Strict ANSI/ISO Compliance again - Change Warnings options to 'All' - In 'Linker options' put "C:\Program Files\quincy\custom_lib\p_io.o" and make sure you put the double quotes as well. They are needed because of the space in the path. - Click OK.

this should be:

gcc -o myprog -Llibxml -lxml2 main.c

but the library file should have name libxml2.a

in this case

gcc -o myprog libxml2.lib main.c

1) use latest Dev-C++ (4.9.9.2 or wxDev-C++ 6.10-2), you will have 
Parameters tab

2) if you have to for some unknown reason to stick with such archaic 
version 4.9.7.0 put the text into the Linker Options textbox on the 
General tab

Hello,

there are some problems i encountered with that stuff.
As I looked for some hints on the Internet i haven't any standard process to 
deal with this.
So I followed the gcc manual and tried

gcc -o myprog -Ldir=libxml -llibxml2.lib main.c

then just:

gcc -o myprog -llibxml2.lib main.c

having the file in my working directory .
But gcc writes down it cannot find the library.

There are some hints to have the shared libraries within the PATH but I am 
not sure if in Windows PATH or aome compiler library path.

Also there is three files coming in libxml in lib directory.
Clibxml2.lib
libxml2_a.lib 
libxml2_a_dll.lib

I'm not sure if these libs are dlls or what.

Thanks

Jan Mura

Hi,
Copy the h file and dll file to your project directory.
Then include the h file in your c ro cpp source file, and now select menu 
project->project property. select parameter item, you will see the linker 
setting. Add your dll file in the linker textarea.
Gook Luck!

Hello,

I'm struggling with configure.ac with shared_ptr checking.
I want to check if there is either tr1/boost_shared_ptr.h or
boost/shared_ptr.hpp but I have no idea how to do it with autoconf.

I just added AC_CHECK_HEADER like below,

AC_CHECK_HEADER(tr1/memory)
AC_CHECK_HEADER(boost/shared_ptr.hpp)

but ./configure says
...
checking tr1/memory usability... no
checking tr1/memory presence... no
checking for tr1/memory... no
checking boost/shared_ptr.hpp usability... no
checking boost/shared_ptr.hpp presence... no
checking for boost/shared_ptr.hpp... no
...

even though they both exist actually.
Does anyone know about what to do ?

Thanks,

That is a more general question: Can you recover your formatted partition.
Possibly. But if you have to ask here, you don't have the knowledge. Maybe
you have a friend with enough knowledge - else you may have to pay a large
amoung of money and send the disk to a company specializing in restoring
lost files.

However, the only way data can be recovered from that disk is if you do
nothing at all that results in further writing on the just formatted
partition!

I was formated main partition (C), in here have my programs...
Dev is instaled in secondary partition (D)

Can I recover my programs?

You wrote: "As I have included some information and comments within the
code. With these information and short email messages should be able to
know what the intention was."

Please post normal ASCII mails to this mailing list.

Your original mail was multi-part. One part contained quoted-printable
without any line breaks (!), i.e. everything on a single line. Try to read
your header text (and the "table" to the right) if it's on a single
line...

The other part was quoted-printable HTML, i.e. looked something like:
/**************************************************************************=
******************************************************<BR>&nbsp;*&nbsp;
Des=
cription:&nbsp; Each star stands for a digit, with the leftmost star on
eac=

bsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp=

Note that every space in your text got converted to 6 characters in HTML
encoding. That is quite wasteful of bandwidth. Your mail many times larger
than the real information it contained.

Further: Your original source code must have contained tab characters (and
most probably very short tab characters too) that got converted to
non-break spaces. But not to the correct number of spaces since the mail
program did not know your true tab length.

Now, you expect people to spend any time trying to read your description?
Do post ASCII mails if you care about people spending time to read them.
And make sure that your mails does not contain any tab characters that may
get the indentation totally mangled!


You write: "This is not an assignment." If this is not a school
assignment, then what is it? This type of code does not produce any really
useful result. This is a coding project to let you exercice algorithms and
logic thinking. It is then reasonable to think that this is either school
work or an Internet coding contest, such as Project Euler. School work is
expected to be done on your own. Coding contests looses most of their
meaning unless the problems are solved individually...

About your for-loop functions:
I said that your for loops didn't work. A reasonable thing to do then
would be to take a closer look at them. If you did that but didn't see any
problem with them, the next thing would be to assume that I was wrong, or
to write a little test program and try them. Calling them 10 times in a
row and printing their return value would have made it obvious that the
loops did not perform any loop usable to your program.

About your code:
Before your loops, your comment says: "for() loops are used to randomly
assign a digit to each of the [...]". What is random about a for loop?

You have two three-digit numbers, i.e. the first digit in each number must
be non-zero. You have implemented 6 loops to iterate through all
combinations. But if only the first digit in each number must be non-zero,
why are all loops iterating from 9 down to 1? Shouldn't four of the six
loops include the digit zero?

And why do you have two variables for each loop? Why not iterate a1
directly, instead of iterating on i, and assign i to a1?

Note that you can convert the six loops into just two with:

for (a = 100; a <= 999; a++) {
   a1 = a/100;
   a2 = (a/10)%10;
   a3 = a%10;
   for (b = 100; b <= 999; b++) {
       b1 = b/100;
       b2 = (b/10)%10;
       b3 = b%10;
       // Do all work here.
   }
}

And since you are only using a1, a2 and a3 to form mltply_1 (which the
above code has as loop variable) you can skip evaluating a1, a2 and a3
totally.

And if you swap places of the a and b loops, you don't need to evaluate
b1, b2, b3 in the inner loop.

You have a comment: "The result is assigned by multiplying both variable
mltply_1 and mltply_2". Don't you expect anyone looking at your code to
recognize that from the following source line?
result = mltply_1 * mltply_2;

Do not spend time writing comments that tells what individual source lines
does. With correct variable and function names, that should be obvious
from just looking at the code line. In some situations it may be needed to
document _why_ you are doing something, since the reason behind isn't
directly visible. Only when you have larger blocks of non-obvious code
will it be needed to write a 'summary' to describe what the code does - or
is expected to do.

Back to your code again. Why are you performing the test:

if ((mltply_1 * b3 < 1000) || ...

before evaluating partial_1, partial_2, partial_3?
If you assign your variables first, you don't have to evaluate the same
thing twice.

A selective - but very fast - test in your code is the requirement:

if (partial_3 == (partial_1 + partial_2)) ...

Why do you do that just before the printout? Wouldn't it be better to do
it before you spend a huge amount of work to split partial_1, partial_2,
partial_3 into 12 digits?

Your test of digits verifies that all digits in partial_1 are represented
in partial_2. But no test to verify that all digits in partial_2 are
represented in partial_1.

Why do you need 9 temporary variables just to split the partials into
digits? You do not make use of the intermediate values anywhere...

mltply_1, mltply_2, result, partial_1, partial_2 and partial_3 are
unsigned integers. You have used the formatting character %d which is for
signed integers.

My suggestions should allow you to remove between half and two thirds of
the variables, code lines and indentation levels and probably cut the
running time with a factor 10.

If the goal is to just get an answer, this doesn't matter. But then, this
isn't the type of problem that you solve just to get an asnwer. It is a
problem you solve to train your thinking, so the above improvements are
important. The goal isn't to find a solution, but to find a good solution.

Even more can be done to improve the code, but I must leave a bit for you
to think about too :)

An important rule: As soon as the code starts to look really messy, it is
time to stop what you are doing and start pondering if you are doing
something wrong. Most of the time, you are! Most programming problems are
intended to have a clever solution.

libxml2 ( http://xmlsoft.org/ ) has HTML parser. However if it's correct 
XHTML you should use XML parser, it could be much faster.

Almost. The loop will end when n reaches 0. But the last assign will be
performed when n is 1. So the "loop" functions can be rewritten as:

n = 0;
h3 = 1;
return 1;

I need loading and parsing some html documents, Is some easy and simple
solution exists?

I am newbie in C ++

Thanks

I wish to produce flat binaries. How to accomplish this, with mingw ? The minimal amount of size possible? Advice me if possible.Thanks in advance
