Hi,
I have a slider control on a dialog box in mfc. When user clicks on the slider bar, the thumb moves by the ticks. I want to place the slider thumb directly at the place where user clicked the mouse on the slider bar.
Any sample code for the above scenario.?
Anybody have any idea.?
Regards,
Mbatra

Hi!
I've to select a number radomly from 1 t0 6. What is the C++ code for this?

int number;
srand ( time(NULL) );
number = rand() % 6 + 1;

Since (from rand() as cplusplus.com[^]):
Notice though that this modulo operation does not generate a truly uniformly distributed random number in the span (since in most cases lower numbers are slightly more likely), but it is generally a good approximation for short spans.
An alternative is:
int n = 1 + 6.0 * rand() / (RAND_MAX + 1.0);

That's wrong.
I startet a small programm generating one billion random number for each of the two solutions repeatly.
The are no difference and the reason is obvious.
Of course smaller numbers are more likely, but it doesn't matter how big a number is when you use modulo as it depends on divisibility. And there is no difference for small or large numbers.

It depends on the goodness of the pseudo random generator , of course (hint: it is not the reminder function that is 'broken').
The test depends also on the periodicity of the random generator.
How did you perform the test?

I had just two arrays of long integer, filled with random numbers. Then I calculated the difference between the two, printed them and repeated the test, adding the differences.
Of course there are differences but they are neglectable and there is no scheme that they will raise with higher numbers.

This should do it.

The code is as follows : int random_number = (rand() % 6) + 1;
Example of use:
#include <cstdlib>
#include <ctime>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std ;
int main(void)
{
srand(static_cast<unsigned>(time(0)));
cout<<" \nDICE GAME\n";
int random_number = (rand() % 6) + 1;
cout<<" \nYou threw a ["<<random_number <<"]\n\n";
return 0;
}

I got an application MFC and openGL are used. When I run the application it should load a 3D graphics model. But my tool bar, menu bar everything is coming properly but the 3D model window with the model is not appearing. There is no error or no dll problem. Everything linked propely. Why the 3D model is not coming. Please help me someone. Thanks Sujan

Is there any chance you have tried to debug this application?

Could it be happened becasue of graphics card. May be the graphics card is not supporting the 3D model or it is not sufficient. Because in some systems it is working fine.

The question posted by Chris is asking whether you have used your debugger to try and find out what is happening in your program. From the information you have provided (including that picture) we have nothing that would give any clues.
One of these days I'm going to think of a really clever signature.

i tried using debugger. All calls are fine. I am passing the 3D model's file name to the function draw() and then its being called. But nothing is drawn on the screen. pls help.

I'm sorry but we cannot begin to guess what is happening in your program. You need to find out what is happening in your drawing function and whether it is reading the file and processing its content correctly.

I have built a unit tester in C++. Compiles and runs under VS and linux (Ubuntu 10). (I know, there are others out there. Spare time project of mine over the years)
I just finished the port to Linux. However, if I throw an exception anywhere, within the shared object that contains the test case it will signal SIGABRT. All my searching has not revealed an answer. I figure there is something messed up in the compile switches.
I reduced it to a very simple occurence
void UTL_STR_RTRIM_1() {
try {
int x = 99;
throw x;
}
catch (int i) {
mr_cout << L("Caught int within test case ") << i << std::endl;
}
catch (...) {
mr_cout << L("Caught ... within test case ") << std::endl;
}
TEST_EQUAL(this, mr_utils::mr_string(L("This is a str")), mr_utils::TrimRight(L("This is a str \t\n\r\0")));
}
So even, throwing and catching and int (tried it with other types and exceptions) will cause SIGABRT
Here is my make file for the shared object that is loaded (with above code) followed by makefile of executable that loads the shared object of test cases. Any ideas?

Where does the SIGABRT get raised? You may need to add your own signal handler to trap it and take action accordingly.
One of these days I'm going to think of a really clever signature.

It is raised at the point where the exception is thrown. As you can see, unless I am totally missing something, the int is being thrown and properly caught so there should not be a signal raised at all. This is my dilema.
I put in a signal handler but it does no good. App still closes. I will need to handle the signals eventually since this is a unit tester. But for now, I am just trying to figure out why the SIGABRT could possibly be raised on a legitimate thrown and caught exception
This is the message at runtime:
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'int'
The program has unexpectedly finished.
Basically it acts as if there is no catch and the terminate is called. Or perhaps I am misreading something. The stack dump is below

I found a solution to the SIGABRT problem. As I suspected it was a problem with the makefile. In particular, I changed
this:
ld -shared -soname $@ -o $@ $(OBJS)
to this:
$(CC) -shared -W1,-soname,$@ -o $@ $(OBJS)
It now behaves in the same way as in Windows. As long as I catch the exception properly it will never SIGABRT.
Seeing that I am not a linux guru, I would appreciate if someone out there has an explanation why a shared object linked with ld will not allow exceptions while one linked with gcc will.
It may also help anyone else having a similar problem. I looked far and wide and could find no documentation on this.
