I would like to run this function in my C++ code;

void convertToBinary( int numberToConvert )<br />
{<br />
	if(!(( N / 2 ) < 1 ))<br />
	{<br />
		binaryRepresentation[counter] = ( N % 2 );<br />
		counter++;<br />
		convertToBinary( N /= 2 );<br />
	}<br />
}

but binaryRepresentation[counter] = ( N % 2 ); line of code does not work friend?

I don't understend what meen N in this code Wink | ;)

For binare representation of value i use this function:

<br />
char* BinPrintf(int value)<br />
{<br />
	char tmp[256];<br />
	memset(tmp, 0, 256);<br />
    int tpos = 0;<br />
<br />
	while(value)<br />
	{<br />
		tmp[tpos++] = 0x30+value%2;<br />
		value = value >> 1;<br />
	}<br />
<br />
	char *ret = new char[strlen(tmp)+1];<br />
	memset(ret, 0, strlen(tmp)+1);<br />
	tpos = strlen(tmp)-1;<br />
	value = 0;<br />
	while(tpos > -1)<br />
		ret[value++] = tmp[tpos--];<br />
<br />
	return ret;<br />
}<br />

This code could simply be replaced with a call to strrev(tmp).

I assume binaryRepresentation is some sort of char array, and that N is actually numberToConvert. That being the case, what you have is working, but you are confusing 0 (ASCII 0) and '0' (ASCII 48). You simply need to change the statement to:

binaryRepresentation[counter] = (char) ((N % 2 ) + 48);

Now binaryRepresentation[counter] will contain '0' if N is an even number and '1' if N is an odd number.

Of course, if you wanted to use a "built-in" solution, you could simply use itoa(numberToConvert, binaryRepresentation, 2).

When I made

Compiler gives an error like
cannot convert parameter 1 from 'char' to 'const char *

that's normal, you associate a char with %s

do this :

sscanf( static_cast( N % 2 ) , "%<font color=#FF0000>c</font>" , &binaryRepresentation[counter] );

That is because static_cast( N % 2 ) is not a pointer to a char. I don't know what it is, because N is unknown to me...

Take a look at the prototype of sscanf[^] and then start wondering how you should pass the parameters...

Besides that, the solution that Mad__ gave you looks like what you want... Big Grin | :-D

Multiply it by infinity and take it beyond eternity and you'll still have no idea about what I'm talking about.

Hello all,
In application I am facing handle leak problem.
I am using dev partner tool and oh.exe from MS to trace the leak. But after getting the information from oh.exe I am unable to understand how to get in the code.
for example: using oh.exe i can find that
" 00000ADC gpb.exe File 09e4 \DOCUME~1\E669267\LOCALS~1\Temp\~DFB472.tmp " handle is getting leaked.

Now can you suggest how to locate code with respect to this leak.

Thanks & regards,
Jokhan

Hi,
Think u must have 2 use something like

CMainFrame *pFrame = (CMainFrame *) GetParentFrame();

TBBUTTONINFO tbi;
tbi.dwMask= TBIF_STYLE;

tbi.cbSize= sizeof(TBBUTTONINFO);
pFrame->m_wndToolBar.GetToolBarCtrl().GetButtonInfo(ID_FILE_SAVE, &tbi);

tbi.fsStyle |= TBSTATE_PRESSED;
pFrame->m_wndToolBar.GetToolBarCtrl().SetButtonInfo(ID_FILE_SAVE, &tbi);

Sometimes this may help u

debugging the break point? :) :)

is there any way i can trace the function where the breakpoint function was reached. I've tried the "crash finder" application but that couldnt trace the function either. I've put exception handlers all over but the application crashes at some point. The application always crashes at the same address and i cant really trace the condition where this is happening. I am writing all my the function names in a file to trace the condition but the application breaks off at a different point with the same address location. Any ideas people?

have a look at the functions call stack, the processor registers and so useful debuging tools.

otherwise, if you want some help, post a piece of the crashing code...

Try creating a mapfile for ur project to get the line number where the app crashes. Check this article.

Have a look at the project's .map file (you might have to add /map to the linker settings). For example, if you know the program is crashing at address 0x17d28a03, you would look in the .map file for the closest address that is less than this value.

Decimal number class

Does anyone know of a (preferably free) class library that will accurately represent decimal numbers? we have been using floats but these have problems representing certain numbers and are resulting in rounding errors.

i don't understand why you're talking about a class for integers.
don't you want to use signed/unsigned int/short/long ??

No I mean decimal numbers, like 1.234

float and double are no good at representing certain values (e.g. 0.1)

I need a class that can accruately represent decimal numbers

Instead of float (4 bytes), use double (8 bytes) or long double (10 bytes) if you need even more precision

did you have a look at float.h ? you certainly didn't.
you will find many "tools" to manage non real values like infinites, resolution loose, and so...

and about your 0.1, i don't understand why float is not good...

float and double are nice containers for floating point numbers, but they aren't accurate, they can't accurately describe 2 1/3 for example.
While double is ok for most apps, it would be a poor choice for eg. insurance companies where the roundings in the complex actuarial formulas would mean filtering away billions of dollars.
