How can i get a refrence to the only created object of class X derived from CFormView?

I want to use public members of class X outside the class (from another CView derived class).

Thanks a lot Smile | :)

Allow me to elaborate:

CMainFrame * fram=(CMainFrame*)AfxGetMainWnd();
CMyDocument *doc=fram->GetActiveDocument();
POSITION pos = doc->GetFirstViewPosition();  
while (pos != NULL)   
{      
   CView* pView = doc->GetNextView(pos);  // not safe to cast to anything other than CView!
   if (pView->IsKindOf(RUNTIME_CLASS(CYourDerivedViewClass))) {
      CYourDerivedViewClass* pYour = (CYourDerivedViewClass*)pView; // this is just for convenience
      pYour->TheFunctionInQuestion();
   }

}

But this makes your interface between the view classes dependent on implementation, and that's generally a bad idea. Instead I suggest you send private windows messages (or even registered ones) between you views. In CYourDerivedViewClass you can call the member function from the message handler, in this way the implementation stays in CYourDerivedViewClass. Much safer, much more clean.

Cheers

Virtual function

What is virtual function? Where and how can i use this concept?

Re: Virtual function

A virtual function is used when you use polymorphism. Let's take an example to make things clear.

Suppose you have two classes:

class Base<br />
{<br />
   virtual void Test();<br />
}<br />
<br />
class Child : public Base<br />
{<br />
   virtual void Test();<br />
}

So in this case, the Child class inherits from Base class. The Test function has been redefined in Child classes ans is virtual (you don't need to specify virtual again in the Child class).

Virtual functions are usefull when using pointers:

Base* pPtr = new Child;<br />
....<br />
....<br />
pPtr->Test();

In that case, even if the type of the object is CBase*, the funcion that will be called will be the one of the Child class. It is very usefull when you have different that inherits from the same base class. You can redefine in each a virtual function that will do something adapted for the class itself. Thus, you can store all these pointers in a table (containing pointers to the base class) and use their 'redefined' functions.

class A
{
virtual testA(){}
}

class B: public A
{
virtual testB(){}
}

B b;
the question is which is true below:
1. b has 1 vptr in its A sub object, the vtbl is enlarged from A's vtbl
2. b has 2 vptrs,one in A sub object, one in B sub object, vtbl maintains its size

Re: vtbl question when derived

1 is correct. However, A's vtable and B's vtable are different, although in this case the first entry in both tables will be the same (&A:testA). The first four bytes (in VC++6.0 at least) of the classes are the vtable ptr; in A it will point to A's vtable, in B it will point to B's vtable. That's how an A-ptr pointing to a B-object will know how to call B's version of an overloaded virtual function and not A's version.

If we expand on your example so the definitions are:

class A
{
   virtual testA();
   testA2();
}

class B:public A
{
   virtual testA();
   virtual testB();
   testA2();
   testB2();
}

then the object layout and the results of calling the members will be:

A: vptr ---> &A::testA

B: vptr ---> &B::testA()
             &B::testB()

// call members:
A a;
B b;
A* ab=&b // ab points to a B object, but the compiler sees it as an A object
a.testA()     // calls A::testA
a.testA2()    // calls A::testA2
b.testA()     // calls B::testA
b.testA2()    // calls B::testA2
b.testB()     // calls B::testB
b.testB2()    // calls B::testB2
ab->testA()   // calls B::testA - testA is virtual
ab->testA2()  // calls A::testA2 - testA2 is not virtual, the compiler thinks ab points to an A object
ab->testB()   // compiler error, A does not have member testB
ab->testB2()  // compiler error, A does not have member testB2

Hope this clarifies it.

Cheers
Steen.

Declare Byte

For C#, the declaration of the byte is as below:
public byte[] Header_byte = {0x10,0x00};
public byte[] DataLength_byte;
But I don't know how to declare bytes in visual c++

If you wan't bytes (8 bits), I suggest you use unsigned char

unsigned char Header_byte[] = {0x10,0x00};
unsigned char DataLength_byte[];
or
unsigned char *DataLength_byte;

Hello. I just compiled it.

This works:
unsigned char Header_byte[] = {0x10,0x00};
unsigned char *DataLength_byte2;

This one doesn't due to "Unknown datasize":
unsigned char DataLength_byte[];

C# bytes are .NET framework type. C++ don't have them.

in C/C++, you can use char instead...

char Header_byte[] = {0x10, 0x00};
char DataLength_byte[];

For VC++ declaration of byte is

byte buf[]={0x10,0x00};

I have used it in my MFC application
and works fine .
Locgically it is same as "unsinged char".

Compiler Error C2504 please help

WernerPos28-Sep-05 22:01

28-Sep-05 22:01

Hi,

I have encountered compiler error C2504 during compilation of a xerces based app.

There is a header file called Filterresult.h which defines a generalization of DOMNodeFilter

#pragma message("DOMNodeFilter used in Filterresult.h")
class CFilterresult : public DOMNodeFilter
{
public:
virtual short acceptNode(DOMNode const * n) const;
CFilterresult();
virtual ~CFilterresult();

};

The xerces-Header-Files I included into stdafx.h and stdafx.h is always included exactly before Filterresult.h.

But the VC++ compiler is complaining "C2504 .. DOMNodeFilter has never been defined"

Consequently I put pragma message() into **all** Header-Files which declare DOMNodeFilter and also in the header file which defines that class. I would have expected to see, that "DOMNodeFilter used in Filterresult.h" appears before the message "DOMNodeFilter defined". But this is not true..

StdAfx.cpp
class DOMNodeFilter declared in DOMDocumentTraversal.hpp
class DOMNodeFilter declared in DOMDocument.hpp
DOMNodeFilter defined in DOMNodeFilter.hpp

Hi Cedric,

I modified Filterresult.h to include DOMNodeFilter.hpp. I thought this was not necessary because I had included stdafx.h always before filterresult.h in the cpp files (I feel this might have been a wrong assumption). I modified filterresult and included a pragma message("already included") into domnodefilter.h.

#if !defined(AFX_FILTERRESULT_H__D3EED92D_3C92_473B_8382_30ED607DBEEB__INCLUDED_)<br />
#define AFX_FILTERRESULT_H__D3EED92D_3C92_473B_8382_30ED607DBEEB__INCLUDED_<br />
<br />
#if _MSC_VER > 1000<br />
#pragma once<br />
#endif // _MSC_VER > 1000<br />
<br />
#pragma message("DOMNodeFilter used in Filterresult.h")<br />
<br />
#include <xercesc/dom/DOMNodeFilter.hpp><br />
<br />
class CFilterresult : public DOMNodeFilter  <br />
{<br />
public:<br />
	virtual short acceptNode(DOMNode const * n) const;<br />
	CFilterresult();<br />
	virtual ~CFilterresult();<br />
<br />
};<br />
<br />
#endif // !defined(AFX_FILTERRESULT_H__D3EED92D_3C92_473B_8382_30ED607DBEEB__INCLUDED_)

well the output now is still not satisfying..

Sorry, I didn't have much experience in using namespaces:
DOMNodeFilter is defined within the Xerces-Namespace, which has to be referred to by the macro
XERCES_CPP_NAMESPACE_USE.

It was enough to include that macro either within Filterresult.h or before the statement
#include Filterresult.h

You can use DirectShow.

From MSDN:
An application can use Microsoft® DirectShow® to capture audio data from microphones, tape players, and other devices, through the inputs on the sound card. Typical scenarios include:

Recording a voiceover narration for later dubbing over a video stream.
Converting legacy analog audio content to digital format.
Capturing voice or music for transmission over a network.
