Now certainly, it's david vs big-fat-goliath(that's you) given my insufficient knowledge about managed or unmanaged code but man, if you do not scroll to the end of page, you will see this line
"sealed is also valid when compiling for native targets (without /clr)"
I have nothing more to say on this and whatever you say after that is correct but can you confirm this by using 'sealed' keyword in native unmanaged application on your system. I feel it's working on my PC.

Certainly no! I'm not trying to talk you down or something like that. I'm merely stating the facts that I can pull off my head. My idea of visiting the forums and discussing with people is to teach them some, and learn some from them back.

Probably MS has done something with *their* compiler to support this feature (read as added feature specific to their compiler, or an extension, because of which you won't be able to have the same code successfully compiled with another c++ compiler). It doesn't work just right on my machine (you're probably using some latest version of VS and that compiler support for understanding this keyword).
I only have 2003 installed here on this PC and it doesn't just work right. I will be able to derive classes from a class that has been declared 'sealed'.
theCPkid wrote: I feel it's working on my PC.
Now, what does that mean? Something like:
class c1 sealed{}; class c2:public c1{}; gives a compiler error? If yes, then I'm almost certain that it becomes Microsoft C++ compiler (insert version) specific. Because it doesn't even work right with the previous versions! Not to mention sealed is NOT a C++ keyword.

class A sealed

error C3246: 'B' : cannot inherit from 'A' as it has been declared as 'sealed'
I use VS 2008.

Do you mean your compiler recognizes sealed keyword, allows compilation etc and still do not stop you from inheriting? hmmm.. may be you should tweak around a bit to find out how 'sealed' is being interpreted by your VS compiler.
In the msdn link I mentioned before, it is written sealed is valid even if /clr is not mentioned.
So, my suggestion is not entirely wrong. It works in at least one case.

I do a rebuild all and it barfed all over. It doesn't even seem to know what does 'sealed' mean. Won't even compile. Which would be the case with every other c++ compiler.
(the previous build had ignored the changes I made to the code - happens every now and then).

I just tried this with VC++ Express and it compiled just as theCPkid states, even though the MSDN document states that you need the /clr option - which I certainly did not use. Is this a bug or a new feature I wonder 
|

No it isn't a bug. It is some sort of an extension to their compiler.
Even though there is nothing called "sealed" in the c++ language, Microsoft seem to have added the ability to their native c++ compiler to understand and support this keyword (the idea must have come from .NET). It looks like only VS 2005 or above will support this keyword.
This cannot even be said to be "Microsoft Specific" (note that the documentation avoids using this term too), because it is restrictive to some versions of their compilers. Unfortunately if you would like to write portable code, using it is a very bad idea, because any other standard c++ compiler won't even know what sealed means. You will have to rewrite your code such that your class is not inheritable (and that will require you to change the whole class code, and the code that is using the class).
And if you want to write a class that is not inheritable, and if you use this feature, then the code is NOT c++. Because it won't even compile in any standards conformant c++ compiler.

Of course I assume that you know the other 'quirks' associated with keeping a class constructor as private. Let me know if you need more information.

Hi ,
Here is what Stroutstroup had suggested on the same thing you want to achieve:
Can I stop people deriving from my class?
Bjarne Stroustrup :Yes, but why do you want to? There are two common answers:
* for efficiency: to avoid my function calls being virtual
* for safety: to ensure that my class is not used as a base class (for example, to be sure that I can copy objects without fear of slicing)
In my experience, the efficiency reason is usually misplaced fear. In C++, virtual function calls are so fast that their real-world use for a class designed with virtual functions does not to produce measurable run-time overheads compared to alternative solutions using ordinary function calls. Note that the virtual function call mechanism is typically used only when calling through a pointer or a reference. When calling a function directly for a named object, the virtual function class overhead is easily optimized away.
If there is a genuine need for "capping" a class hierarchy to avoid virtual function calls, one might ask why those functions are virtual in the first place. I have seen examples where performance-critical functions had been made virtual for no good reason, just because "that's the way we usually do it".
The other variant of this problem, how to prevent derivation for logical reasons, has a solution. Unfortunately, that solution is not pretty. It relies on the fact that the most derived class in a hierarchy must construct a virtual base. For example:
class Usable;
class Usable_lock {
friend class Usable;
private:
Usable_lock() {}
Usable_lock(const Usable_lock&) {}
};
class Usable : public virtual Usable_lock {
// ...
public:
Usable();
Usable(char*);
// ...
};
Usable a;
class DD : public Usable { };
DD dd; // error: DD::DD() cannot access
// Usable_lock::Usable_lock(): private member
I thinks This solves your problem , If yes rate the answer as Good and close the thread.
Regards,
Kushagra
I hate to code but I luv to Develop

Hi all , i want to add the FilePath+FileName to the Scanner Driver so that the User App will Print :
Current File Name :MyCurrentFile.txt * for example *
you can download ( scanner *Driver +User App *) from here :http://www.box.net/shared/zm2d7cuyrm[^]
I tried with scanuk.h as follows :
typedef struct _SCANNER_NOTIFICATION {
ULONG BytesToScan;
ULONG Reserved;
UCHAR Contents[SCANNER_READ_BUFFER_SIZE];
PWSTR FileName;
} SCANNER_NOTIFICATION, *PSCANNER_NOTIFICATION;
many thanks

I am attempting to write an application in VC 2008 under Vista 64. In the application, I create a Class and a pointer; the pointer is cast (void) and held in a map.
<CMap<int, int, void*, void*> myMap
m_pClassXYZ = new ClassXYZ;
m_pClassXYZ->Create(NULL, NULL, WS_CHILD, CRect(0, 0, 0, 0), this, nClsID, NULL);
p_vPtr = (void*)m_pClassXYZ;
//Note: Map holds pointers to multiple classes of different types and hence is cast void.
pmyMap->SetAt(n, p_vPtr);
When I want to use the pointer, it is cast back:
m_pClassXYZ = (ClassXYZ*)p_vPtr;
This seems to compile, link and execute without incident. On exit the application I want to destroy the Class(es) and free the memory:
m_pClassXYZ->DestroyWindow();
delete m_pClassXYZ;
The appropriate DLL's are part of the project and allow memory leak checking. I get the following in the Output pane when the application exits:
c:\..................\MyApp.cpp(164) : {192} client block at 0x00098F60, subtype c0,
88 bytes long. a ClassXYZ object at $00098F60, 88 bytes long
When I click on the leak statement, it takes me to the line with the "new" operator.
I understand the leak statement, just not why. I think that this worked in previous versions of Visual Studio.
Am I not destroying the class and freeing memory properly? If not, can someone please give me an idea of what I am doing wrong?
Thanks,
Barry

This how I would do the allocation into CMap.
CMap<int, int, void*, void*> myMap;
m_pClassXYZ = new ClassXYZ;
m_pClassXYZ->Create(NULL, NULL, WS_CHILD, CRect(0, 0, 0, 0), this, nClsID, NULL);
p_vPtr = (void*)m_pClassXYZ;
myMap.SetAt(n, p_vPtr);
The deallocation would be done as follows -
int nKey;
void* pValue;
POSITION pos = myMap.GetStartPosition();
while (pos)
{
myMap.GetNextAssoc(&pos, &nKey, &pValue);
myMap.RemoveKey(nKey);
m_pClassXYZ = (ClassXYZ*)pValue;
delete m_pClassXYZ;
}

Superman, you came to the rescue. Your reply cleared out all of those pesky client blocks. Thanks. I do have some normal blocks left, but I will start another thread to address them.

You say you are using DLLs. Is the memory allocated in one module and deleted in another? You have to keep the allocation and deletion of objects in the same module.
You may be right
I may be crazy

My mistake. I was refering to the header files MS supplies that allow the memory leak detail in the output pane. The project does not have any DLL's as of this stage in the writing. Again, sorry for misleading you.
Thanks,
Barry

}
In this code I am getting a bug when the value of t reaches 9. When InsertItem(c, ips); increases the
value to 10 (ten) it becomes 2 (i.e. 10 is treated as binary nos. 1 0).
Why is it so?
the integer c is not treated as binary no.

You could change this to:
ips = a; and eliminate the "reset" at the bottom of the loop.
Manmohan29 wrote: LCDevices.SetItemText(c, 1, _T("Testing"));
This should probably be:
LCDevices.SetItemText(t, 1, _T("Testing"));

I did what you told but
values after inserting a breakpoint after
c++;
ips "192.168.0.9"
t 9
c 10
ips "192.168.0.10"
t 2
c 11
the problem is still there.

I'm not sure what you are asking or showing. When you call InsertItem(), it will return the index of the item that was added. This index is used in subsequent calls to SetItemText(). If you have anything other than that, your code will not work correctly.
Feel free to show the updated code.

but still when t = 10 then it becomes t = 2 (binary 10).
one more thing the counting is like this:-
ips "192.168.0.0" t = 0
.
.
.
ips "192.168.0.9" t = 9
ips "192.168.0.10" t = 2
.

.

.

While not related to your problem (at least I don't think so), you could shorten it down a bit to:
int c = 0;
for (unsigned int field2 = 0; field2 <= 255; field2++)
{
for (unsigned int field3 = 0; field3 <= 255; field3++)
{
CString ips;
ips.Format(_T("192.168.%u.%u"), field2, field3);
int nIndex = LCDevices.InsertItem(c, ips);
LCDevices.SetItemText(nIndex, 1, _T("Testing"));
c++;
}
}

Hi. Well... I have a trouble with scrollbars. In my (developer) computer it all looks great! BUT in any other computer it looks incorrectly. The first time, when i create the window scrollbars are painted on the border of the dialog instead of the inside of the window. And when i resize it, it repaints the window correctly with the scrollbars inside.
This i wrote in OnCreate
this->EnableScrollBar(SB_VERT);
this->EnableScrollBar(SB_HORZ);
And this is at OnInit
this->SetScrollRange(SB_HORZ,0,2*STARTPIXELX+MAPSQUARE*FIELDSIZE);
this->SetScrollRange(SB_VERT,0,2*STARTPIXELY+MAPSQUARE*FIELDSIZE);
SCROLLINFO info;
info.cbSize = sizeof(info);
info.fMask = SIF_ALL | SIF_DISABLENOSCROLL;
info.nMin = 0;
info.nMax = 2*STARTPIXELY+MAPSQUARE*FIELDSIZE;
CRect rr;
this->GetClientRect(&rr);
info.nPage = rr.bottom-rr.top;
info.nPos = 0;
info.nTrackPos = 0;
SetScrollInfo(SB_VERT,&info);
info.nPage = rr.right-rr.left;
info.nMax = 2*STARTPIXELX+MAPSQUARE*FIELDSIZE;
SetScrollInfo(SB_HORZ,&info);
this->ShowScrollBar(SB_VERT);
this->ShowScrollBar(SB_HORZ);
My dialog has application window, Overlapped, resizing border styles. Pls help!

Well.. A found a solution.. I don't like it, but it works.
void MainDial::OnTimer(UINT_PTR nIDEvent)
{
if (theApp.First)
{
CRect rr;
this->GetWindowRect(&rr);
rr.right-=1;
rr.bottom-=1;
MainDial::MoveWindow(rr);
theApp.First=false;
}
