Don't convert console apps, rather follow this short list:
1. Make sure key logic is not in same file as main.
2. Create a dialog app using Visual Studio
3. Add files from step 1
4. Hook up functionality
Of course 4 is the complicated part since how Windowed apps work is different from Console. As previously suggested, if you don't know how windowed apps work, get educated. Petzold isn't a bad starting point, though will only take you so far.

Just another homework, no effort from poster, just "I can't do it" and a link.
We're supposed to invest time and effort to offer you solutions for free, in our time, so you can get an A and forget about C++ or something? RTFM.

in this code?from where i need to understand that is deleting something?
void Database_delete(struct Connection *conn, int id)
{
struct Address addr = {.id = id, .set = 0};
conn->db->rows[id] = addr;

As far as I know, this is not valid C++ code.

Yes, you are right.

This[^] thread might help. It looks as though there are members of the Address struct one called set and it's getting initialized to 0, and another called id and it's getting initialized to the given integer id.

yes,but by the name of function says(database_delete),this function must delete something,and i don't know how it is deleting something
|
|
|
|
|
Just a guess, perhaps set is some kind of flag marking a record as inactive or something, as opposed to actually deleting a record. What a functions name is and what it actually does may be two different things. What's needed here I believe is some useful comments.

can i give you the entire code?maybe you will find my answer

This ties into the code you posted below. Specifically, it's related to this method:
void Database_set(struct Connection *conn, int id, const char *name, const char *email)
{
struct Address *addr = &conn->db->rows[id];
if(addr->set) die("Already set, delete it first");
addr->set = 1;Basically, it looks like it's controlling whether or not you've already set the value in this row - so, to set a value here, you would call Database_delete first, which changes the value in id from 1 to 0, which means that the rest of Database_set can continue.

Are you sure that is your question?

my bad,sry about you wasted time to read my code )

Just try reading things a bit before posting here. Your other question (in the C# forum) is similar.
|
|

Can you not search this code yourself?  Database_close() is called right before main() returns.
In the future, please post only relevant code snippets.

Hi,
Is there any way to convert WMI Win32_OperatingSystem InstallDate to mm/dd/yyyy format in C++. I have seen there is a class defined in C# for the same. But I didn't find anything in C++.
When I run WMI query "Select InstallDate from Win32_Operating system", I get : 20120714160600.000000+330 as the result.
I want to convert this to some readable format e:g: dd/mm/yyyy format with time also.
Anybody have any idea about this.?
Regards,
Mbatra

I am trying to enable an application for unicode.
//char c_buffer[ARRAY];
TCHAR c_buffer[ARRAY];
above are the changes I made into code.
Which breaks at this code in the .cpp file
sprintf(c_buffer, "%d", pb->i_id);
abc.cpp: error C2664: 'sprintf': cannot convert parameter 1 from 'TCHAR *[1024]' to 'char *'
Why so ?
I have added TCHAR.h and strsafe.h
|
|
|
|
|
Use wsprintf -
wsprintf(c_buffer, _T("%d"), pb->i_id);
