How to check whether a CArray is empty or not?
For ex: If you have a char x.
You can do if(x==NULL), then print"Error".
How can you do this kind of testing with a CArray? What is used in the place of NULL?

CArray::GetCount

You can check it by:
CArray arr;
int i = arr.GetSize();
if(i==0)
AfxMessageBox("Empty Array");

CArray::GetSize() function
As per my understanding if i use GetSize, i can check the size of the array. I need to check the contents of the array. How is it possible?

CArray is just template class... it depends on what datatype you are going to create collection. pls clear you want to check is there any element in the array or not...
Check out CArray::GetUpperBound() ,The condition GetUpperBound( ) = –1 indicates that the array contains no elements.

Have I gone mad or has the 'this' window been removed from the debug windows you can see in VS.NET2005? Anyone noticed this? Or have a just missed where it now hidden away now.

Firstly I'd like to warn you all that this is a "Linux C" question and not anyway CLI related.
I've been doing some work on the PicoTux 100 module for a work project.
The background is that I've been porting an I2C driver for a Mitsubishi EEPROM to the PicoTux. The original file was a bit of a mess and everything was in one source file.
I've been moving various routines into seperate source files to tidy things up, between each move I build the entire project. Once I'd completed moving all routines to their various files I get messages similar to the ones below:
Error: symbol _Z10gpio_writeP13gpio_handle_tjj is undefined
Error: symbol _Z10gpio_writeP13gpio_handle_tjj is undefined
Error: symbol _Z16gpio_set_dir_outP13gpio_handle_tj is undefined
Error: symbol _Z10gpio_writeP13gpio_handle_tjj is undefined
Error: symbol _Z10gpio_writeP13gpio_handle_tjj is undefined
Error: symbol _Z10gpio_writeP13gpio_handle_tjj is undefined
The source compiles ok, this is in the linking stage.
There are routines called gpio_write in the source (well actually they're pre-compiled and I'm linking them in).
Does anyone have any ideas on how to track down where these bugs are?
This compilation is being done on Fedora Core 4 using the gcc compiler provided by PicoTux. I've setup MinGW Dev Studio to use the picotux compilers and created a project with two headers files (one has GPIO (General Purpose IO) definitions and the other has function prototypes & a few other I2C definitions). There are then several source files for the various functions.
Thanks in advance for any help

Do a search for Z10gpio_writeP13gpio_handle_tjj and find where it is in the code. Make sure that the file of library it's defined in is included in your project.

Z10gpio_writeP13gpio_handle_tjj is, I think, a decorated function name because:
1) There is no function (or anything infact) named Z10gpio_writeP13gpio_handle_tjj
2) This fails at the linking stage so "it has to be defined" because the source code compiles cleanly.
I've tried just now putting all the code into one source file and jiggling the headers to match. This compiles without any errors at all so I'll work like this to get the project done. In fact it can remain like this to simplify matters at the other end but it'd be nice to know why it failed.

If you declare a function without defining it things compile ok but you get a failure at link time. e.g.
void Foo();
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
Foo();
return 0;
}
To stop the link error you need to add the definition somewhere in your project. i.e.
void Foo()
{
}
You might be right about the name being mangled, you need the unmangled name, MSVC's linker gives both. If you can't find it you may need to guess. i.e, try "writeP13".

So, what do we know...
1) it doesn't work when items are in separate files. It complains about 'Z10gpio_writeP13gpio_handle_tjj' (which we think is a decorated name) not being defined at link time. As for my guess, the true routine name is gpio_write() and it's first argument is a gpio_handle object. Am I close? 
2) it does work when we cram everybody into the same file - inelegant but all the names are there.
Hmm....
Question: in case (1) is the project building a mix of .c and .cpp files? If so, then I would say that the 'missing routines' live in a .c file and export undecorated names in the .o modules whereas the .cpp files are generating decorated names for the linker to fixup.
If that is the case then you need to ensure the .cpp code knows that the gpio_* routines are 'C' routines and not 'C++' routines. Checkout Linkage to Non-C++ Functions[^] for information on how to tell C++ code to expect undecorated names. Gcc surely provides a similar mechanism, if not this exact same one.
If that's not the case, then I guess an "oh well, never mind" is in order.
Later,
Dan

Close It's a gpio_handle_t. The integers in the name give the number of characters in the next section - it's a simple matter of counting I believe the 'j' means the parameter is a char, but I'm not sure.

1) Here are the related GPIO routines (so your close :
gpio_status_t gpio_alloc(gpio_handle_t *, gpio_ports_t);
void gpio_close(gpio_handle_t *);
gpio_status_t gpio_free(gpio_handle_t *, gpio_ports_t);
gpio_dir_t gpio_get_dir(gpio_handle_t *, gpio_ports_t);
gpio_handle_t *gpio_open(void);
gpio_status_t gpio_read(gpio_handle_t *, gpio_ports_t, gpio_data_t *);
gpio_status_t gpio_set_dir_in(gpio_handle_t *, gpio_ports_t);
gpio_status_t gpio_set_dir_out(gpio_handle_t *, gpio_ports_t);
gpio_status_t gpio_write(gpio_handle_t *, gpio_ports_t, gpio_data_t);

No C++, just pure ANSI C, I'm not compiling anything to do with C++.
As I said before, for this project I'll just continue with one source file as it's fairly small, < 500 lines of code. But it's more an annoyance than anything else.
Many Thanks Ed

You're linking to a C library? Those are decorated C++ function names. Make sure if you're linking against a C library and you're compiling C++ files, you put extern "C" around the function declarations in the header file.
If it's all C++, then you must have an object file missing from the library, or the library is not being linked in correctly.

Yes I am linking to a C library, but I'm also coding in C, there is no C++ involved at all it's all (99% sure) ANSI C code.
The GPIO routines which are causing the errors are pre-compiled in object files and I'm linking to them, I do have the source to the routines but because they're linking into the Linux kernel and various other parts of the system it's easier to use the .o files and it works when the source is in one file.

The compiler seems to think those functions are C++ functions. As I recall, GCC does not mangle C function names - only C++ function names. I would say that somewhere, your files are getting compiled as C++. I assume all the files have lowercase 'c' extensions - uppercase would cause them to be compiled as C++, and you're not compiling with the '-+' switch that forces C++ compilation.

I don't think that I've got an C++ options turned on, in fact it's the first thing I do when I do embedded stuff is turn on the ANSI C Compliance and turn off C++ stuff.
But then again maybe I missed something, anyhow I'll use the single source file at the moment as it works, flying out to Spain on Monday so I need something operational rather than tidy.
Thanks for the pointers though

Hi,
I hate to be bound to frameworks. I prefer simple DLL's that's easy to redistribute with the application. Hence I'd like to stay with C++ without all .net languages such as C#, VB nor Managed VC++.
Soon Microsoft will release Windows Vista... powered by the new programming API WinFX.
Is it worth studying any further Win32?
If not, would you please recommend a substitute api?

MS has backed away from the "everything new will be managed" direction. Vista will indeed have lots of new APIs and COM interfaces to play with. TaskDialog() is one that comes to mind.
In any event, you can't use the new W*F stuff (Avalon, and so on) without requiring Vista or XP SP2, and I for one am not going to do that to my users anytime soon.

I only had to do that recently for a game from Activision that used the Intel Indeo ? audio and video drivers.
The drivers came built into Windows 2000 and were mysteriously absent from Windows XP.
Of course, you could download the drivers for $14 US to support XP, but the game only now costs about $5 if you can even find it anywhere anymore.

Kind of like when they backed away from the "everything new will be COM" direction ...

Yes .................
There was a time when we worked on DOS .... and now after win2k and new versions of UNIX , what abt ......C and C++
It may me they will change some API , they also can make some new data type...
They can modify some api.... But .... it does not affect the core structure of win32..
