Dear led,
thanks for reply. I found a tutorial, which should have done a serialization, as you suggested.
Below is the code (with my object, instead the one from tutorial):
std::vector<std::string> word_list;
word_list.push_back(_T("HI"));
ofstream ofs("c:\\fifthgrade.ros", ios::binary);
ofs.write((char *)&word_list, sizeof(word_list));
std::vector<std::string> word_list2;
ifstream ifs("c:\\fifthgrade.ros", ios::binary);
ifs.read((char *)&word_list2, sizeof(word_list));
The problem is that this code (the last line) doesnt work. And I think this is
because I am using not simple Class instances, but a vector object.
Do you have any idea, what could be other reason for it not to work ?
thanks

Please provide a link. Either it is not adequate or you have not understood it correctly. I would think most people would take longer than a single hour of studying to understand serialization. You are trying to understand it right? Not just trying to reproduce the tutorial source code for your purposes, that's not going to go well. You need to study it with the goal of understanding it.

I agree with what you are saying, but the problem is that I am working on a project which
is due soon. And I cant devote too much time to serialization only. But, in this case, I really thought that using the tutorial was supposed to work and would suffice.
Here it is: http://www.functionx.com/cpp/articles/serialization.htm,
and it seemed pretty easy for me from here.
Thanks

Yeah, I would not recommend that tutorial. The example "class" used is not a class, it is a simple 'C' data structure and there has been intrinsic support for reading and writing 'C' data structures since.... well 'C'. That is not the same thing as 'Serialization' of complex C++ classes that may contain pointers which are memory addresses.
You cannot serialize a memory address. You must serialize/deserialize the data at the memory address which requires knowledge of the data structure. Knowledge of the data structure is something that only the developer has meaning you cannot rely on the compiler to properly serialize your class.

I can't help the fact that poor project management and planning conflicts with reality. I am only a software developer not a magician that can bend time and warp reality. Perhaps your situation now calls for the Post Agile Manifesto approach to software development[^]. I don't recommend it, but if that's what you must do.... whatever.

There is no project management, its a University project. Had a lazy life before  So now, I am tight in my deadlines.

Hmm....in the 5 hours this thread has been around, you probably could have researched and implemented serialization for
a class 
Whether or not you use MFC, I would take a look at Serialization (MFC)[^]
This is an example of a fairly robust, generic, serialization solution.
On the other (easy) end of the solution spectrum, you could simply add a serialize method and
an unserialize method to your class, both of which take a socket as a parameter.
The serialize method would write (binary) all the class' data, one at a time, to the socket.
The unserialize method would read the binary data into the class' members, in the same order it
was serialized. That's a simple, socket-only class serialization solution.

But that will ofcourse only work if the class contains no pointers or virtual functions. If you have already a successful way to save and retrieve to and from a file, your're nearly there if you have no virtual functions. Just use the same code to write to and retrieve from the socket.
Hope you get it together in time

I'm trying to re-build my app and Im getting this error:
<br />
Linking...<br />
uuid.lib(oaidl_i.obj) : fatal error LNK1103: debugging information corrupt; recompile module<br />
Error executing link.exe.
???
I cant get why this is happening?

|

have you by any chance an instance of your application/dll still loaded in memory ?
also, have you tried a clean all/rebuild all ?
|
|
|
|
|
I'm using VC++ 6.0 I tried 'Build->Clean' and than 'Build->Rebuild All' but still the same error!
How can I checked if I have instance of my app still loaded. I tried using TaskManager but did not found under applications or processes tab.
Thanks for help!

are you building the application in the wrong order ? (not taking care of the interdependencies ?)

In my app I need 'imapi2.h' so I add d:\vistaSDK\include in my Tools->Options->Directory tab under include files and compile again about mising 'sal.h', I locate it (d:\vistaSDK\vc\include) and include it also.
Now when I try to compile I get:
<br />
uuid.lib(oaidl_i.obj) : fatal error LNK1103: debugging information corrupt; recompile module
???
Thanks for helping me!

Are there any limitations in VC6 to the number of times you can use a namespace declaration to add classes to the same namespace within the same header file (or nested header files)?
I've got several in one set of #included headers, and after successfully parsing a few namespaced areas of code, I get the error "syntax error : 'namespace'"!
Any ideas folks?
TIA!

is this the only words the compiler gives you ?! 
please post a relevant error message and a piece of code

Code is a bit extensive to post. I have a base class header file, with the class definition wrapped in namespace. A derived class header file, also wrapped in namespace, and a number of very small classes derived from the derived class defined in a single third header file, each class is individually wrapped in namespace. I also have a number of other headers all using the same namespace.
If I include the header file containing the small classes I get:
....\parts.h(71) : error C2059: syntax error : 'namespace'
....\parts.h(72) : error C2334: unexpected token(s) preceding '{'; skipping apparent function body
when it hits the seventh class declaration's namespace.

note, i didn't ask for the whole one, i asked for a relevant piece of code
BTW, you might be missing a closing '}' somewhere, because if we take the example of the std:: namespace, there are tons of stuff inside it, and it's still fine to use.

 That was it...miles from where the compiler error showed up.  Sorry for wasting your time...

the compiler error was maybe not throwing you at the right place, but the message was talking enough for an insider

did you forget a ; somewhere ?
Me think you should try to have one namespace per header file.
|
|
|
|

None missing that I can see.
If I put one namespace I get the namespace error in one place; if I wrap several class declarations individually one of them (not the first) gets the error.
I think it must be a compiler limitation.

No......a } .....duuuuh. Problem was that the compiler error was miles from the code error...

I have a modeless dialog that I'm using for several different things in my program in developement. I need to be able to GRAYOUT or eliminate certain editboxes present on the dialog for certain uses in the program. Those GRAYEDOUT editboxes need to be unuseable for certain displays. How can I do this. Please include code in your response.
