I suppose you've to choose between them.
Would you start developing your first interpreter or your first compiler (Well, of course you can develp both, but you've to start with one of the two...)?

Roughly speaking developing a compiler is most difficult than an intepreter so you can start with the latter, if develpment difficulty is a factor.

Do you know that's Google matter [^]. There is also an article series, here at CP [^].

Are you sure this is really what you want to do ? As the other pointed out, that's a difficult task. You need to ask yourself two questions:
1) Do you really need to be able to execute code from a text file at runtime ? Can't you 'simplify' your task into something like a condition and an action (that's more or less your example) ? If you design it cleverly, it could simplify a lot your code.

2) If that's not possible, are you sure you want to write your own interpreted ? Can't you use an existing scripting language instead of rewriting it yourself. If they exist, this is for a specific reason. If you already looked at this and found it too difficult, well think again because doing it yourself is gonna be way more complicated than that...

That will be very difficult, since you didn't provide a lot of details on what you want to achieve...

Just in case of confusion to later readers.

But the original replies did point you at some scripting resources, so I suggest you read them.

Also read the articles here: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/recipes/#Parsers[^]. It may take you some time...

Could you tell us why you want to make a compiler? What do you intend to use it for?

Do you intend to use it in some larger program? If that is so, you'll be better off to use some existing scripting language.

Have a look at this compiler construction tutorial[^]. Then you can make a better decision as to whether you want to drop yourself into a world of pain (which is what writing a compiler mostly is, if it's going to do much).

CListCtrl problem

Dear All,

I want to display items in a CListCtrl but by default the Horizontal scroll bar is appearing if I add more items in the list.

But I need to display only Vertical bars if I add more items. I use like below :

<pre> m_List.EnableScrollBar(SB_VERT, true);
m_List.EnableScrollBar(SB_HORZ,false);

The above works only if the list is having minimum items, when it exceeds the client area then only Horizontal bar is working and Vertical bar is shown but not working.

Possibly you need to use the LVS_REPORT style.

When I use Report Style, even I cannot add the items in the list.

//List Control parameters 
//CONTROL "",IDC_LIST1,"SysListView32",LVS_LIST | LVS_ALIGNLEFT | LVS_NOCOLUMNHEADER | WS_BORDER | WS_TABSTOP,112,23,84,114 (even I tried LVS_REPORT)
m_List.EnableScrollBar(SB_VERT, true);
m_List.EnableScrollBar(SB_HORZ,false);
CString strText;
int nColumnCount = 0;
for (int i=0;i &lt; 20;i++)
{
   strText.Format(TEXT("item %d"), i);
   // Insert the item
   m_List.InsertItem(i, strText);
}

You don't need the above lines.

When I use the CListCtrl using LVS_REPORT, I cannot populate the list with the items.

CString strText;
int nColumnCount = 0;
for (int i=0;i < 20;i++)
{
   strText.Format(TEXT("item %d"), i);
   // Insert the item, select every other item.
   m_List.InsertItem(i, strText);
}

Using library built in VC 8.0 or VC 7.0 in Application built in VC6.0

Hello,

I want to use a function from .lib file(which is built on VC 8.0 and VC 7.0) and my application is built in VC 6.0.

On calling function (from .lib) i get large number of linker errors.
I beleive this is because one of the one of the linker warning
"warning LNK4078: multiple ".CRT" sections found with different attributes (40300040)"

Please advice.
Thanks in Advance!

You can't use static libraries built with VC 7.0/8.0 with VC 6.0. Full stop. There are no workarounds, it just doesn't work - they're incompatible.

Of course, if you could make DLLs out of your static library code, you might get a bit further - but there's lots of different issues there as well.

How can get rows in excel sheet?

Hi all,

i m using excel like this its works fine.

For example:

Start Excel

	Excel::_ApplicationPtr pApplication;	

if ( FAILED( pApplication.CreateInstance( _T("Excel.Application") ) ) )	
{
		Errorf( _T("Failed to initialize Excel::_Application!") );
		return;	
}


Load an Excel workbook

	_variant_t	varOption( (long) DISP_E_PARAMNOTFOUND, VT_ERROR );	
Excel::_WorkbookPtr pBook = pApplication->Workbooks->Open( dlgFile.m_szFileName, varOption, varOption, varOption, varOption, varOption, varOption, varOption, varOption, varOption, varOption, varOption, varOption );


Get the first worksheet

Excel::_WorksheetPtr pSheet = pBook->Sheets->Item[ 1 ];

i want to know how many rows have data in sheet.

please tell me how can i get rows count.

thanks in advance

pSheet->UsedRange->Rows->Count

You know - it would really be a good idea for you to learn about Excel and its object model if you're trying to program against it.

The easiest way to see what Excel has to offer is to open Excel, press ALT+F11 and play with VBA, especially the Object Browser (press F2 in the VBA IDE to access that).
