thanks
But there is one problem. How much memory should I allocate? Since It is a program for concatenation of string...And I wont be knowing the no of characters after contcatination(ie the size of the temp) in advance.
How to go about it?

Well you may allocate a predefined amount of memory (on statistical grounds) and then reallocate (for instance, in C language, you may use malloc and realloc) a bigger size if needed.
BTW: you know, there are C runtime library functions for the purpose of concatenating strings.

yes But I wanted to implement it with my own code....So that I learn pointer concept too..

I am a beginner

I used the following code.....No error but not giving any results
char *a,*b;
char *temp;
temp=new char[5];
a="aa";
b="bb";
while(*a!='\0')
{
*temp++ =*a++ ;
}
while(*b!='\0')
{
*temp++= *b++ ;
}
*temp = '\0';
printf("%s",temp);
-----------------------------

That's almost the solution...  , try:
char *a,*b;
char *temp, *dest;
dest=new char[5];
temp = dest;
a="aa";
b="bb";
while(*a!='\0')
{
*temp++ =*a++ ;
}
while(*b!='\0')
{
*temp++= *b++ ;
}
*temp = '\0';
printf("%s",dest);
of course you need now to generalize the code (ad remember to free dest when you no longer need it)

Oh thanks a lot...its working fine...

Yes you can - you need to allocate strlen(A) + strlen(B) + 1 characters, where strlen is defined as follows:
int strlen(const char* s)
{
int count;
while (*(s++))
++count;
}

A code you have past here is the exact code that is in your system?
But if you have taken temp as array (char temp[XX]) then you might get error which you told. But a code that we are sawing has no that kind of error.

 Why so?

Did you trust your computer to check if there was a runtime error?
You need to google first, if you have "It's urgent please" mentioned in your question.

When I was posted I haven't seen your clarification that you are facing run time error (due to no refresh page).
So, If you have taken variable as char temp[10]; and try to execute
*temp++ = *a++;
it will give you compile time error.

I haven't tested that nor tried something similar, but I think that the hole think wont give you the right result anyway.
By incrementing the char * temp it jumps to the next position and you will lose the previous position, don't you?
So if you really want to do something like that you should have a pointer to the first position of temp (I guess).
So why not simply allocate mem for temp and then do a memcpy with a and b? Given memcpy temp and for b &temp[2] for example.
I hope this will do the trick, but I am just guessing.

I have delphi application .I am trying to convert it into c++ builder
this is my delphi function
function TClipCollection.GetItem(Index: Integer): TClipItem;
begin
Result := inherited Items[Index] as TClipItem;
end;
and this is my builder function
TClipItem TClipCollection::*GetItem(int Index)
{
// Result := inherited Items[Index] as TClipItem;
how i convert this line
}
|
|
|
|
|
Probably something like
TClipItem* TClipCollection::GetItem(int Index)
{
return (TClipItem*)Items[Index];
}
You need to be sure that the array indices are consistent between Delphi and C++ (C++ array indices start at zero - do Delphi array indices do the same?).

thanks Stuart Dootson
but i am now getting error
E2451 Undefined symbol 'Items'
where as i defined the property in the TClipCollection class
__property TClipItem *Items[int Index] = { read=GetItem, write=SetItem};
for more details my class like this
class TClipCollection : public TCollection
{
private:
TClipItem *GetItem(int Index);
void SetItem(int Index,TClipItem *Value);
public:
TClipCollection();
__property TClipItem *Items[int Index] = { read=GetItem, write=SetItem};
TClipItem Add();
TClipCollectionEnumerator GetEnumerator();
};

How are you using Items? It looks to me like the compiler and linker are seeing Items as a global symbol (i.e. not a class member).

but in delphi it is used
delphi code is this
TClipCollection = class(TCollection)
private
function GetItem(Index: Integer): TClipItem;
procedure SetItem(Index: Integer; const Value: TClipItem);
public
constructor Create;
property Items[Index: Integer]: TClipItem read GetItem write SetItem; default;
function Add: TClipItem;
function GetEnumerator: TClipCollectionEnumerator;
end;
you r right and when i mke the constructor of this class then i got also error
E2251 Cannot find default constructor to initialize base class 'TCollection'
then what i do for this

rajeshkumarrajput wrote: but in delphi it is used
Delphi is a different language than C++ - it has different rules - and anyway, I asked you how Items was used in your code - it's the use of something called Items, not the definition that's causing that error.
I suspect your GetItem/SetItem code is overriding the relevant property accessors from TCollection, so you probably need something like:
TClipItem* TClipCollection::GetItem(int index)
{
return (TClipItem*)(((TCollection*)this)->Items[index]);
}?
rajeshkumarrajput wrote: E2251 Cannot find default constructor to initialize base class 'TCollection'
That'll be because TCollection has no default constructors - look at the documentation (C++ Builder has documentation, I presume?) and work out which constructor you should be using.

now i am getting the error
E2297 'this' can only be used within a member function
can i send my code to solve the problem ?
|
|

I'd suggest you might want to learn C++ instead - that'll be more use in the long run.

I need to crate template class which will be generic parent of more classes containing data. Each child class defines something like item ID (different name in each class, but always int) and I need to let parent class know it's name to be able to make some operations on that.
This is pseudocode:
template <class T, ???XXX > class DRecord
{
void DoReset() { ((T*)this) -> XXX = 0; }
}
class A : public DRecord<A, ???A_XXX >
{
int A_XXX;
}
XXX is template param I need to define and use some way. I've tried to use member pointers but it didn't compile. Is it possible to define member of child class as parameter into parent class? In moment of parsing the template the member variable is not declared yet, so I'm not sure whether is it possible.
Thank you.

Why do you want to do that?
Could just use polimorphism, couldn't you?

I'm creating some database wrapper, it maps tables to classes (or structures). There are some common operations I need to do on primary keys, but each table is using different PK names. I want to code common operations only once (using templates, not preprocessor macros unless necessary) and don't want to use virtual functions (it should be theoretically possible, but I don't know whether C++ templates are powerful enough for this).
It is also interesting problem for me since I'm not template expert and I'd like to learn
