So the variable is a CListCtrl type?

It's a CListCntrl. Yes.

I am actually trying to access it from a function with in the app.

Is that function a method of the class that owns the list control?

So why would you be expecting it to work then? Technically you can make it work, but not without having to jump through several hoops first.

You would be much better served by using a property sheet (which simply replaces the dialog) with two or more property pages instead.

Retrieve data field from HL7 message in VC++

Hello,
I want to retrieve the data field from the segment in HL7 message. For e.g. If i want a data field Patient name from the segment Patient Identification(PID), then how can i retrieve this. I know the coding method through Regular Expression, but is there any free toolkit or library available in VC++ or in C++. I gone through Google for library, but not getting in C++(i found it in Java).

e.g

MSH|^~\&|ADT1|MCM|LABADT|MCM|198808181126|SECURITY|ADT^A01|MSG00001|P|2.4
EVN|A01|198808181123
PID|||PATID1234^5^M11||JONES^WILLIAM^A^III||19610615|M||2106-3|1200 N

I want "JONES" from PID

Thanks

If you are using MFC, how about AfxExtractSubString(), like:

CString strPID("PID|||PATID1234^5^M11||JONES^WILLIAM^A^III||19610615|M||2106-3|1200 N");
CString strName;
AfxExtractSubString(strName, strPID, 5, '|');
CString strLast;
AfxExtractSubString(strLast, strName, 0, '^');

His (HL7) data looks similar to EDI data that I used to deal with back when I worked for a health-related company (some 10+ years ago). Tools were available back then for most of the EDI formats (e.g., insurance, financial, remittance), so I can only imagine more exist today, although they may not be free.

sorry sir, but i search on google but i am not getting library for VC++, i got it in java. That's why post it again.

but the following method is essay one....

CString strPID("PID|||PATID1234^5^M11||JONES^WILLIAM^A^III||19610615|M||2106-3|1200 N");
CString strName;
AfxExtractSubString(strName, strPID, 5, '|');

thanks for your reply.

Function Pointers in Classes

I have two independent C++ classes, A and B. I have a non-static public function in class A

void display(char *msg);

I want to have its function pointer as a public member of class B, without information that it belongs to class A, e.g in class B, I have:

void (*display)(char*);

I have a member of class B in class A, and I am trying to set function pointer as:

B b;
b.display = &A::display;

I get the following compiler error:

error:  '=' : cannot convert from 'void (__thiscall A::* )(char *)' to 'void (__cdecl *)(char *)'

I am using Visual Studio 2005. Can any one let me know a proper way of doing this?

Firstly, your approach using void (*display)(char*); doesn't work as it points to a global or static class member function, not a member function.

One way to to do it is the following, assuming the function to be called is always display:

Define an interface that contains the function:
```
class ICallable
{
public:
    virtual void display(char *msg) = 0;
};
```
Note the function is a pure virtual function.

Derive the classes that have the function to be called from it:

class A : public ICallable
{
public:
    virtual void display(char *msg)
    {
        // A's impelentation here...
    }
};

Your pointer now looks like the following:
```
ICallable *pPointer;
```
The call through the pointer like this:
```
pPointer->display("Hello world!");
```

What is your requirement?

Is it ok if you have static "display" function in class A?
