Only in that from the Excel spreadsheet where I am entering the variable p into the function I can set it so that it is outside of the range of the if statement parameters. The value is returns when this is so is something like 1.7878e+308.

I played with the code, this returns the values I need:
double __stdcall Ts_P(double &arg)//psia input, DegF output
{
double h_reg_1;
double h_reg_2;
double h_reg_3;
double h_reg_4;
double x;
double vl_reg1[10] = {1167.0521452767, -724213.16703206, -17.073846940092, 12020.82470247,-3232555.0322333, 14.91510861353, -4823.2657361591, 405113.40542057, -0.23855557567849, 650.17534844798};
double p = (arg * 0.0068947572); //convert psia to MPa
double beta = pow(p,0.25);
if(p >= 0.000611657 && p <= 22.06495)
{
h_reg_1 = pow(beta,2) + vl_reg1[2] * beta + vl_reg1[5];//IFC 97 E term
h_reg_2 = vl_reg1[0] * pow(beta,2) + vl_reg1[3] * beta + vl_reg1[6];//IFC 97 F term
h_reg_3 = vl_reg1[1] * pow(beta,2) + vl_reg1[4] * beta + vl_reg1[7];//IFC 97 G term
h_reg_4 = (2 * h_reg_3) / ((-1*h_reg_2) - (pow((pow(h_reg_2,2) - 4 * h_reg_1 * h_reg_3), 0.5)));//IFC 97 D term
x = (((vl_reg1[9] + h_reg_4 - pow((pow((vl_reg1[9] + h_reg_4),2) - 4 * (vl_reg1[8] + vl_reg1[9] * h_reg_4)),0.5)) / 2) - 273.15) * (1.8) + 32;
return(x);
}
else
{
x=-1;
}
return(x);
}

Thank you very much for your help.....in troubleshooting this I realize that I need to figure out how to operate the debugger. I can attach it to Excel and add the breakpoints, however it seems to do nothing. Again, thank you so much...
|
|
|
|
|
also, have you tried attaching the code to a debugger and stepping through to see what actually happens?
if you can't do that, then try using some tracing statements to see what the values are and where the logic actually flows.

(please reformat your code).
Have you use the debugger to check the values and the code flow ?
Watched code never compiles.
|
|
|
|
|
When you say please reformat the code I am not sure what you are suggesting.
When I try to run the debugger it says that it cannot open the .dll file that was created. The only way I can run it is to open up the excel file that references the .dll and plug in values for p that are either inside or outside of the range of the if statement and view the results.
|
|
|
|
|
attach the debugger to excel. and make sure the dll is loaded before the offending code is called (or call it at least once).
then set a breakpoint in the offending code file. and cause excel to call the function.

Your code snippet is barely readable, since all special characters are escaped and the formatting is not kept. Check the forum guidelines (the message "How to ask a question" on top of this message board). The point nr 7 explains exactly what you have to do when you want to paste a code snippet.

I think what he means is that you should use the formatting that this forum provides, either by marking your code block and clicking on the beige-underlined formatting button titled code block, or by manually surrounding your code block with the tags <pre> and </pre>. It should then look something like this in your editor window:
<pre>if (a) {
b = 1;
}
else {
b = 0;
}<pre>
(that last <pre> should have been </pre> instead actually, but that would have prematurely ended my example since I used the same tags to format it in the first place  )

I think the above line should read:
double p = (*arg * 0.0068947572);
I must get a clever new signature for 2011.

I've come across a situation where I don't understand entirely what's happening regarding references (not pointers).
If we did this for example:
int someNumber = 5;
int& get()
{
return someNumber;
}
void main()
{
int a = get();
get() = 52;
int b = get();
}
We can change the value of some number by setting the return value of get() (or the long way around int& ref = get(); ref = 52;)
But, in this case I'm not sure what exactly is going on:
class bclass
{
public:
bclass(){}
virtual void cheese()=0;
bclass(const bclass& other){ _asm{int 3} }
};
class dclass : public bclass
{
public:
dclass(){val=5;}
void cheese() { _asm{int 3} }
dclass(const dclass& other){ _asm{int 3} }
int val;
};
dclass base;
bclass& get()
{
return base;
}
void main()
{
dclass argh;
argh.val = 2;
get() = argh;
get().cheese();
}
What happens when we try to set the return value of get()? Why doesn't anything happen? I also tried it with just references to bclass so simply trying to set a reference to a bclass to a reference of a different bclass and still nothing.
Also, before anybody says anything I'm not actually trying to set the return value to something else, or set any other variables in some bizarre manner it's just something I've come across quite by accident.
EDIT: Or a much simpler example:
bclass& argh = d2();
bclass& hmm = dclass();
hmm = argh;
hmm.cheese();
Where dclass's implementation of cheese is called

When you assign argh to get(), you are calling an assignment operator. I do not remember the details of its interaction with the copy constructor, but the code fragment below triggers a breakpoint.
class bclass
{
public:
bclass(){}
virtual void cheese()=0;
bclass(const bclass& other){ _asm{int 3} }
bclass& operator= (bclass const& f) { _asm{int 3} } };

What you're trying to do is reassign the reference, which you can't do. It's a common mistake to make. What is actually occurring is the operator= is being called, but since you don't supply an implementation, it calls the compiler generated one. The compiler generated one essentially does nothing (EDIT: in this case).
For primitive values, like in your first example, works like you would think because it's just transferring values.
You can "reassign" the reference like this:
&get() = &argh;

&get() = &argh ...
I understand what you mean but ... is that legal C++ or just a hack around a (sort of) compiler bug?
There is nothing like that in the c++ reference book!

Just to clear up some of the confusion:
To the compiler, a reference is equivalent to a pointer in everything but the method of dereferencing. It treats the reference as a pointer to a memory location that occupies the contents of some variable.
To the programmer, a reference is equivalent to an alias. Through that reference you can manipulate the contents of another variable without knowing it's orginal name, by using an alternate name. Your method get() effectively returns a temporary alternate alias to your globale variable. You can assign this to a variable of type reference to bclass (bclass&) in order to use that variable as an alias to your global variable, or, like you did, you can just use the temporary alias immediately.
ahmed's suggestion was that you can reassign the alias to another variable, in this case the local variable argh. But it wouldn't work as the address of operator itself is not a reference, and therefore get() is not an l-value. Reassigning a variable of type reference to another variable is not possible.

no, it's not legal, it was just an attempt to clarify what he was attempting to do.

It does copy all members of the class by using each members assignment operator, default or explicitly declared and implemented.

Since bclass's oeprators are being called, only members of bclass are being copied, i. e. nothing. See my edit on my previous response.
|
|
|
|

It was more of a clarification of what seemed to be a general statement that could be interpreted as "a default assignment operator does nothing".
|
|
|
|

I see. I didn't read it as a general statement, but I now recognize it might be considered as such. Good point.
|
|
|

You do make a good point, so I edited my response to clarify.
Thanks for keeping me honest.

get() = argh; calls bclass::operator= which doesn't exist*. Even if it did exist, val is not a member of bclass and thus couldn't be copied anyway. If you define the return type of get() as dclass&, and in addtion to that define the assignment operator for this class, then it might work.
P.S.: to my knowledge assignment operators can't be made virtual, but you might be able to get this to work with a trick like this:
class base {
virtual void assign(const base& other)=0;
public:
base& operator=(const base& other) { assign(other); return *this; }
};
class derived : public base {
virtual void assign(const base& other) {
const derived* pOther = &(dynamic_cast<const derived&>(other));
if (pOther != 0) {
val = pOther->val;
}
}
public:
derived() : val(5) {}
int val;
};
derived myglobalderived;
derived& get() { return myglobalderived; }
void test() {
derived mylocalderived;
mylocalderived.val = 3;
get() = mylocalderived;
std::cout << "get() = " << get().val;
}
*P.P.S: while bclass::operator= hasn't been defined explicitely, the compiler might create one automatically (but it wouldn't make any difference as explained above). I am not sure in this case however, since assignment operators can't be virtual, and bclass is an abstract class. A member-wise copy will not make any sense, as you can't create instances for an abstract class, and derived classes will overwrite, not override the assignment operator.

My TCP/IP program transfers large data between client/server frequently.
I want to compress data to reduce transferring amount and increase transferring speed.
So I need simple, fast and efficient source code to compress/decompress data, winzip is too slow because it considers many things, which are useless for me, such as file structure.
Do you know any fast compressing source code other than winzip?
Thanks for links or suggestions.
