You prefer the term "raw"? 
I am not writing C++ because I enjoyx managing resources.
When I add a member, I think of the member, not it's contents. a int * doesn't clean up after itself, a scoped_ptr<int> does. We could call them "potty trained", too.

You, OTOH must be a C++ programmer who thinks harder is better.

I don't need any qualifiers but "managed" seems to be how Microsoft touts all the .NET BS.

I'm a C++ programmer who doesn't think C# brings anything worthwhile to the party. Just another of Microsoft's little proprietary ploys. Oh, look what Sun did with Java, I bet we can do that, too.

There is no unique answer, since it mostly depend on the semantics your class intended to be used and on the semantic of the resource (memory is a particular cas of resource, but having an HANDLE instead of an int* doesn't change the nature of your question) is planned to be represented.
The first thing to decide is what should happen when an instance of your class is assigned to another. Should both the classes refer to the same resource (that is: whatever modification required from both will act on the same object) or should them refer to different resources (that is: you need shallow or deep copy)?
Or should one instance represent one resource, hence no copy/assignment can be done and your classes must always pass by reference?)
The second thing to decide is the kind of "ownership" your class has on the resource: Does it own it (has the right to destroy it?) Is it an exclusive owner? Can it pass the ownership to somebody else? Should it share the ownership with other copies?
The following table may help:
| no copy | shallow
| deep | | no ownership | use dumb pointers and disable copy and assing | use dumb pointer and don't care | NO SENSE | | exclusive | delete on destruction, disable copy/assign | NO SENSE | implement copy and assign to create resource copies | | pass-through | NO SENSE | use auto_ptr or implement equivalent semantic (transef
the pointer to the copy and make the original pointer null) | NO SENSE | | sharing | NO SENSE | use reference counting or a reference counting capable
pointer (like shared_ptr) | NO SENSE |
A third thing to decide is how your class acquire the resource: does it create it? Does it get it from a manages? is it created outside and passed to be handled?
As you see, there are many choices, some optimal in certain cases, some optimal in other.

This is probably a really stupid thing to ask considering the development I'm doing (effectivly creating a virus scanner), but how do I link classes/cpp files?
I have 3 applications/sections that I can compile/combine with a makefile, that's fine, but I need them to run 1, 2, 3 once the output from the makefile is done.
Currently the only section to actually run is whichever I have "main" in and obviously if I put that into all three, they won't compile as one.
I've been looking all over the place at all sorts, header files and such, but there is no mention of how to actually do this although I'm sure it must be possible. I'm used to being able to do this in Java and I'm sure I've seen C++ applications do it, but not worked out how.
I have 3x .cpp files which are combined into one using a makefile:
# Virus Scanner
scanner.out : ProgramList.o MD5Hash.o HazardCheck.o
g++ -o scanner.out ProgramList.o MD5Hash.o HazardCheck.o /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5 CONFIG/rudeconfig.lib HASH/src/libhl++.a
ProgramList.o: PROGRAMS/ProgramList.cpp
g++ -c PROGRAMS/ProgramList.cpp
MD5Hash.o: HASH/MD5Hash.cpp
g++ -c HASH/MD5Hash.cpp
HazardCheck.o: CONFIG/HazardCheck.cpp CONFIG/hazard.conf
g++ -c CONFIG/HazardCheck.cpp
clean:
rm *.o scanner.out
#END OF MAKE FILE
scanner.out will run, but only whichever .cpp has "main()" in it, so the other two are defunct but are included within scanner.out. If I compile the three files separately I end up with three programs, but I need them to work together as a single application.
I'm doing all my work on Linux using vi to edit the files, but I assume what I want to do is generic between systems.
Any/All help is appreciated.

You really need to read some books on C++ (from the basics). An executable has only one entry point (the main function in your case, to make it simple). Separating your code into different cpp files is useful only for structuring your code properly, but it doesn't mean that you have 3 "programs". You still have only one main. If you want to execute code from the different files, you need to call these functions from within your main function.

i need help with writing a c code
lets say i have an array[5]
i need to make a new array that gets the indexes of the array[5] from the maximum number to the minimum one.
example
{2,5,1,8,4}
my new array of indexes will be (counting from ZERO)
{3,1,4,0,2}
i though of sorting it and save the indexes in a temporary array or something but it didnt work
any ideas how can i solve this ?

Mmmm.... it looks like homework.
What about if there are two identical numbers in different positions? Is that possible?
Anyways... one possibility (hard coded) could be... you go through the array evaluating the actual number with a maximum that you update when you find that the actual number is higher than this max. If you find it, you can save the value of "i" temporary and continue evaluating. When the array is checked to the end you can know where the highest number was with your temp_i, then put a very low (or negative) number that is not going to disturb you on the next evaluation and start over again.
Regards.

Here is an approach:
Create another array where each element stores (v, i), where value is the value in the input array and i is its index. Then you sort this array on v. You can store v and i in a structure and then use qSort for sorting.

Hi,
the normal approach to sort an array value[] without moving its content is this:
- create an index array, initialized to 0...N-1
- implement whatever sort algorithm you like on that array, except, rather than comparing index[i] and index[j], compare value[index[i]] and value[index[j]] and move the content of index[] around as a result of the sorting steps.

thanks for your replies guys i appreciate it
ive tried this code.. it may look bad lol
but i'll appreciate it a lot if someone can tell me how to correct it
int a[] = {2,1,5,4,7};
int index[] = {0,1,2,3,4};
int i,j,temp;
for(int i=0; i<5; i++)
{
for(int j=0; j<5-1; j++)
{
if(a[index[j]]>a[index[j+1]])
{
temp = index[a[j+1]];
index[a[j+1]] = index[a[j]];
index[a[j]] = temp;
}
}
}
thanks

index[a[j+1]] = index[a[j]];
index[a[j]] = temp;
you should drop all the a[]'s here, you really want to swap two index entries, no more, no less.

thank you.
i've got it working but the array is sorted from the minimum index to the maximum, how can i fix it the oppisite way?
this is the code so far..
if(a[j]>a[j+1])
{
temp = index[j+1];
index[j+1] = index[j];
index[j] = temp;
}
another thing.. you've mentioned something about initializing the array from 0->N-1, ive done that while i know what size my array is.
what if the size is unknown N, how can i initialize it to be from 0 to N-1? should i make another loop to initialize it or there is some other way?
Thanks a lot for everyone's help

Farraj wrote: what if the size is unknown N
you create and initialize the index array after the value array is known, so you do know N.

if you were to understand what you have done so far, you wouldn't be asking such question...

I did understand Luc
thank you for your help
this is my code for now
#include <stdio.h>
#define N 5
void main()
{
int a[N];
int index[N];
int i,j,temp;
int count=0;
for(i=0; i<N; i++)
{
scanf("%d",&a[i]);
index[i]=count++;
}
for(i=0; i<N; i++)
{
for(j=0; j<N-1; j++)
{
if(a[j]>a[j+1])
{
temp = index[j+1];
index[j+1] = index[j];
index[j] = temp;
}
}
}
for (i = 0; i < N; ++i)
{
printf("%d ",index[i]);
}
flushall();
getchar();
}
i think it should work perfectly, its just it doesnt !! though it looks exactly how it should be
can u run it and tell me where is the problem please?
Thanks.

oh im sorry i guess i forgot to compare with a[inde[]]
now its working perfectly
thank you a lot SIR

Farraj wrote: if(a[j]>a[j+1])
is obviously wrong. you need to look at the a value "through the index array".
try
if(a[index[j]]>a[index[j+1]])
that is what you have to pay for the fact that you never actually move the a values around; all you do is change the index values.
You have had the test correct a while ago...

I want to fully draw combobox control by myself, not only the list items. I searched but only found some demos about how to custom draw its subitems. But I really want to draw the edit, arrow button and listbox of the combobox completely. So, is there any example or idea?
Regards
|
|
|
|

I'd say, subclass the combo box and all the controls inside it (list, edit...) and handle WM_PAINT, WM_ERASEBKGND and somesuch. Or write your own complete control from scratch.

You means, just subclass all its three subitems?
but if use its ownerdraw property?

I don't understand what you mean...

I meant, how to use WM_MEASUREITEM and WM_DRAWITEM messages handler if i subclass its edit, button and listbox.
