When i displaying all the drives in the tree control,
it displayes drive names as A, C, D like that now i want to this drives as with required names

Don't confuse drive letter (i.e., name) with volume name.

I derive CStr from CString as..
class CStr : public CString
{
public:
CStr();
virtual ~CStr();
};
and then I declare object of CStr and call some function from CString
void CTestDialogDlg::OnOK()
{
CStr obj;
obj.GetLength();
obj = "Test";
}
the first line is OK but the second line complier show error.
It because I can't call operator in parent class, Right ?
If so, How I define string to object.

Are you sure this is what you want, since CString has no virtual destructor?

Are we supposed to guess the error? It likely has to do with a missing "using" declaration.
Aside from the dtor issue, the only argument I can see in your case for going ahead with the derivation is that you want to give your class a new ctor. Because ctors aren't inherited, you must be prepared to write forwarding ctors for all the CString ctors you want to be available in your derived class. Also, if you care about the return types of assignment operators, you must writing forwarding assignment operators. Compared to writing a handful of non-member "free" functions, this begins to sound like a lot of pointless work.

This is only an issue if you're going to delete it polymorphically.

I'm fairly certain he had plans on adding a few extra methods. Trimming code snippets down to the bare minimum is quite common.

No you wont. They'll be inherited.

Yes but you won't have a const CStr& operator=(LPCTSTR); so ...
CStr t;
t = _T("hello world");
will not compile.

CString doesn't have a virtual destructor, so you need to be very careful about this.
Also, since Microsoft used poor design with CString, many of the operators are member functions, which means the left hand side of the operator cannot be implicitly casted to a CString object. You can call the parent operator, but the syntax is not very pretty. I would recommend not deriving from CString and simply creating methods to operate on one (depending on what you are trying to do).

Hi fellows
I have a single question. I have a float array that have 6 elements all of them initialized with values. I need to find out the size of this array. Let's called my float array of theArray. I use this commom formula: sizeof(theArray)/sizeof(theArray[0]).
My results are strange, because it returns 1. I use this code to see the values:
<br />
char cTemp[50];<br />
sprintf(cTemp, "%d %d %d", sizeof(dVertexes), sizeof(dVertexes[0]), sizeof(dVertexes)/sizeof(dVertexes[0]));<br />
MessageBox(NULL, cTemp, "", MB_OK);<br />
In the first and in the second values it returns "4", and in the third value it returns "1".
Why it returns 1? Did this operation returns the correct size of array(in my case "6")?
thanks for the support

4/4 = 1
4 = size of a pointer
is dVertexes allocated dynamically ? if so, you can't use that sizeof trick to get its size.

my array is declared as following:
<br />
float fVertexes[6];<br />
I'm inserting this values;
<br />
fVertexes[0] = 1.0;<br />
fVertexes[1] = 0.0;<br />
fVertexes[2] = -1.0;<br />
fVertexes[3] = 1.0;<br />
fVertexes[4] = -1.0;<br />
fVertexes[5] = -1.0;<br />
I'm passing this guy to a function, like this:
<br />
primitive.Shape(GL_TRIANGLES, fVertexes, 1,1,1);<br />
Again, why it returns 1 if I don't create this guy dynamically?

That is an example of the decay I mentioned in my post - when you pass the array, it becomes a pointer in the called function.
The function that has the pointer has no "internal" or automatic way of knowing how much the data points to. That is why whenever you pass an array of data to a function, you usually have to tell the function how much valid data is in the array (or have a special element in the array to indicate the end of valid data).
Peace!

If you think it costs a lot to do it right, just wait until you find out how much it costs to do it wrong!

Hi,
Just modify Shape function by adding INT nCount after pointer to array of floats. Then in Shape function, calculate array size as nCount*sizeof(float). nCount should specify the size of the array.
Regards

I made this:
I've passed the size of the array(like you've said) and divided by float[0] and works fine

I made some modifications and works fine. Thanks for the support

The math is working: 4/4=1.
The problem looks like dVertexes is not a true array. It is an atomic type (double) or a pointer.
Note that using sizeof(...) in this way does not work correctly with pointers to arrays, even if they are pointers that have decayed from a true array.
Peace!

ok, so how can I discover the array size? I don't want to use vectors....
|

You have to pass the size to the called function to let it know how much valid data exists.

I've made this:
primitive.Shape(GL_TRIANGLES, fVertexes, sizeof(fVertexes), 0,1,1);
And in the function I'm divided the size of array by the size of first element in the array. Works fine, thanks for help

Depending on how often you are passing these arrays around and how frequently the size changes, you might want to declare a struct with the array and the size as members, then pass that to your functions.
typdef struct _double_array
{
double array[9];
int nCount;
} DOUBLE_ARRAY, *LPDOUBLE_ARRAY;
You can then pass the stuct 'DOUBLE_ARRAY' or a pointer to the struct 'LPDOUBLE_ARRAY'.

Thanks for the tip. It's a good idea

No problem. If you look into the windows api's, you will find that many of the functions are declared like this, you either have to set up a struct or you get one back. My current project calls on the need of dealing with several arrays all relating to the same info, so instead of passing all the arrays and sizes to each function, I simply pass a pointer to a struct.
