Virtual keyword will be given priority when doing inheritance. In this Test3 is inherited from Test1, Test2 and test2 is executing first since its virtual inheritance.

I have to read a file (for a string) and the file is available only at the compilation time, not in the run time.
Is there any possibility to read the file during compilation and initialize a variable with the value read from the file.
I have tried different methods, but doesn't work for me. Can anybody please tell me how can i do this?
Thanks in advance.

That's an interesting task. I wonder why you would need to do something like that. I can think of generally 2 things. You could try to achieve this with a pre-build step that would open your file, read out the value, then find the corresponding variable initialization in your sorce file, paste the string in it and save the modified source (i guess you would need to write a little proggie to perform this for you). Or how about insterting the file into your project as a custom resource file and then at run time load the file, read its content and then initialize your variable, of course if the content of that file keeps changing during compilation this could prove problematic. Any of these look doable? Maybe give more details about the whole concept for us to think of something.

thinking of writing it to .h file.
Anyways thanks for the suggestion

I'm having some issues with some D3D code when trying to display 2D images. All I want is the following:
Set up D3D
Set up a viewport that is suitable for 2D drawing/rendering of images and that doesn't scale the images when the window is resized
Draw the 2D image at some x,y coord
I have some code that does all this, *but* the image quality when rendered is not as nice as OpenGL does. I'm trying to figure out if it's something I'm doing wrong, or if it's just a difference between OGL and D3D. The image is very slighty "fuzzy", as if a small amount of scaling was being performed.
The vertex struct is something like this:
struct PANELVERTEX
{
FLOAT x, y, z;
float rhw;
DWORD color;
FLOAT u, v;
};
#define D3DFVF_PANELVERTEX (D3DFVF_XYZRHW | D3DFVF_DIFFUSE | D3DFVF_TEX1)
All z coords are assigned 0.0
The rest of coords for the image are assigned :
pVertices[0].x = 0.0f - 0.5f;
pVertices[0].y = 0.0f - 0.5f;
pVertices[0].u = 0.0f;
pVertices[0].v = 0.0f;
pVertices[1].x = w - 0.5f;
pVertices[1].y = 0.0f - 0.5f;
pVertices[1].u = 1.0f;
pVertices[1].v = 0.0f;
pVertices[2].x = w - 0.5f;
pVertices[2].y = h - 0.5f;
pVertices[2].u = 1.0f;
pVertices[2].v = 1.0f;
pVertices[3].x = 0.0f - 0.5f;
pVertices[3].y = h - 0.5f;
pVertices[3].u = 0.0f;
pVertices[3].v = 1.0f;
where w and h are the width and height of the image.
When I start to render stuff I use
D3DXMATRIX Identity;
D3DXMatrixOrthoLH(&Ortho2D, r.getWidth(), r.getHeight(),
0.0f, 1.0f);
D3DXMatrixIdentity(&Identity);
Where r is the client rect for the window
I then draw the vertices using a D3DPT_TRIANGLEFAN.

Try setting up texture filtering modes using the SetSamplerState method (of the device). Try using bilinear or anisotropic filtering, which suits you better.

OK, but what I'm trying to avoid is having *any* scaling occur. If i have an image that's 400 X 400, then I would like to have it rendered at exactly 400 X 400, with no scaling.

Ah, sorry, i misunderstood you, my bad. Maybe use D3DTLVERTEX, using that D3D does not perform any transformation of the vertices, so you don't need to fiddle with the transformation and projection matrices.

It's not a good idea to think of screen space and world|view|camera|whatever as being the same thing, they're not, even when you use 1:1 ortho projection.
Setting your ortho matrix to the same extents as the window is sufficient to set scaling to 1:1.
Everything else, filters and such, is to get proper partial pixel blending.
...cmk
The idea that I can be presented with a problem, set out to logically solve it with the tools at hand, and wind up with a program that could not be legally used because someone else followed the same logical steps some years ago and filed for a patent on it is horrifying.

I have some directories/Folders that I placed on a zip drive to transport to another computer. When they are copied to the other computer they are "Read Only" I right-clicked on the folder, went to the properties iteem and selected it. It was set to Read Only. I changed that setting and selected sub-folders also and the progress bar began activity showing it was changing from read Only. after everything was complete I selected the "OK" buttons on all dialogs. I reselected that folder and openned the properties selection and it WAS SET TO READ ONLY again. How do you change this setting?
I also repeated all this under "Run as Administrator" but to no avail.

I have created the following class:
class variable {
public:
// The core data for a variable is an array of values
// Variable 0 will always be the error variable and
// variable 1 will always be the dependent variable.
string name;
bool isStochastic;
bool isDependent;
bool used;
bool isSeasDummy;
bool isKeeper;
double firstValue;
date firstDate;
double *values;
date *dates;
int time0;
int numTimes;
int fillRule;
bool hasLowerBound;
double lowerBound;
bool hasUpperBound;
double upperBound;
bool hasLeads;
int leads;
int lags;
bool keepAtStart;
variable() {
numTimes = -1;
used = false;
isStochastic = true;
isKeeper = false;
hasLeads = true;
};
// This constructor sets up a variable dynamically
// allocating the value and date arrays.
variable(int inTimes) {
values = new double [inTimes + 20];
dates = new date [inTimes + 20];
numTimes = inTimes;
isSeasDummy = false;
used = false;
isStochastic = true;
isKeeper = false;
keepAtStart = false;
hasLowerBound = false;
lowerBound = smallNumber;
hasUpperBound = false;
upperBound = bigNumber;
leads = 0;
lags = 0;
isDependent = false;
};
void insert(int inTime0, date inDate) {
for (time0 = numTimes; time0 > inTime0; time0--) {
values[time0] = values[time0 - 1];
dates[time0] = dates[time0 - 1];
};
dates[inTime0] = inDate;
if (fillRule == 0) {
values[time0] = 0;
};
if (fillRule == 1) {
values[time0] = values[time0 - 1];
};
if (fillRule == 2) {
values[time0] = values[time0 + 1];
};
if (fillRule == 3) {
values[time0] = (values[time0 - 1] + values[time0 + 1])/2;
};
if (fillRule == 4) {
if (values[time0 + 1] > values[time0 - 1]) {
values[time0] = values[time0 + 1];
}
else {
values[time0] = values[time0 - 1];
};
};
if (fillRule == 5) {
if (values[time0 + 1] > values[time0 - 1]) {
values[time0] = values[time0 - 1];
}
else {
values[time0] = values[time0 + 1];
};
};
numTimes++;
};
~variable() {
delete [] values;
delete [] dates;
cout << "got into variable destructor" << '\n';
};
};
Then I use the following code to create an array of variables:
variable *vars;
vars = new variable [numVars + maxInterventions + 1];
for (var0 = 0; var0 < numVars + maxInterventions + 1; var0++) {
vars[var0] = variable(completeTimes);
vars[var0].numTimes = numTimes;
};
Before I added the destructor, this code worked fine. However, now when the vars[var0] = variable(completeTimes);
statement is executed, it calls the destructor and destroys my array. Is there a way I can inhibit the use of the destructor? Or is there a way I can use the second constructor at the same time that I allocate the array?

Please, read the posting guidelines before posting (use the 'pre' or 'code' tags to format your code).
For your question: the problem is that when you copy your variable (by doing this: vars[var0] = variable(completeTimes);), you create a copy of the first variable (which is a temporary one). The default behavior is that it will copy all the members as they are, so for pointers it will simply copy the address instead of allocating a new array. Thus, when the execution goes to the next line, your temporary variable (variable(completeTimes)) gets destroyed and will delete its arrays. And as your other variable (vars[var0]) only copied the address and not the content, these arrays are destroyed too.
In order to fix that, you have to provide a copy operator so that you can make a deep copy: you have to allocate new arrays instead of copying the address (don't forget to copy the other members too).

With all of the extraneous stuff removed, do you have something akin to the following?
class variable
{
public:
variable( void )
{
values = NULL;
}
variable(int inTimes)
{
values = new double [inTimes + 20];
}
~variable()
{
delete [] values;
}
variable &operator=( const variable &var )
{
return *this;
}
double *values;
int numTimes;
};
void main( void )
{
variable *vars;
int numVars = 5,
maxInterventions = 3,
completeTimes = 16,
numTimes = 7;
vars = new variable [numVars + maxInterventions + 1];
for (int var0 = 0; var0 < numVars + maxInterventions + 1; var0++)
{
vars[var0] = variable(completeTimes);
vars[var0].numTimes = numTimes;
}
}

Hi guys,
I trying to extract blocks of a grayscale image. I have to divide my image into 64 blocks(think of it like placing a 8x8 grid on top of it, therefore each block size is image width/8 and image height/8.) Can someone show me a sample code about this?

Not following the posting guidelines
1/ No meaningful subject. *EVERYONE'S* posting wanting help.
2/ not using the formatting (pre) tag, to make your code readable.
Also, your code seems to have a bunch of }'s, but no }'s... This may well be a formatting issue (see #2 above. It's for your own good too)

You also deleted the post with the code that Iain responded to or else edited your initial post. Makes it hard for anyone else following along later to figure what you needed or what Iain was referring to.

Iain,
Please forgive me, I accidentally attached the answer to your post, but the "you" was referring to the original poster. I was just heaping more scorn on the OP because the first post no longer contained the info on which you commented.

Hi, I need to find the port of a printer (not the parallel port). I have code which uses GetProfileString, but I don't think this is how it's supposed to be done. Is there any API call which will do what this does?
The code I have:
#define MyAppPrinterName "MyAppPrinterName"
void CWordAddin::AppendPrinterPort( char* szOurPrinter )
{
char szPort[150]; GetProfileString("PrinterPorts", MyAppPrinterName, "", szPort, 150);
int i, j;
for (i=0; szPort[i] != '\0' && szPort[i] != ','; i++); i++;
for (j=0; szPort[i] != '\0' && szPort[i] != ','; i++, j++)
szPort[j] = szPort[i];
szPort[j] = 0;
strcat(szOurPrinter, szPort);
}
CComQIPtr <<Word::_Application>> app = button->GetApplication();
char printer_name[150] = MyAppPrinterName " on "; AppendPrinterPort(printer_name);
app->PutActivePrinter(printer_name);
There is sufficient light for those who desire to see, and there is sufficient darkness for those of a contrary disposition.

You can use EnumPrinters[^] to retrieve information about available printers. The GetProfileString [^]call you were making is an old function that was used to read the Win.ini file. In modern Microsoft operating systems this function actually reads/writes to the registry. Although the function has not been officially deprecated I would not personally use it.
Best Wishes,
