C/C++ :: Getting Errors On String And Enum Variable Declarations?
Oct 13, 2014I need to do this simple Battleship game project for my C++ class. Here is my current code so far:
#include <iostream>
#include <array>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
enum BShip{ EMPTY, BTLSHIP, HIT, MISS };
const int BSIZE = 6;
const int BTLSHIP_SIZE = 4;
class Battleship {
private:
array<array<Bship, BSIZE>, BSIZE> sea, hits;

C :: Recast Variable X Into Another Type
Jul 24, 2014I have code already and am looking to incorporate something new into it. I am trying to specify a bit size. A snippet of something similar I have is,
Code:
//header.h
int x; Code: //main.cpp
int func1(int a) {
x = a;
}
Is there anyway I can recast the variable x into another type? For example, if func2 had a char parameter instead, can I somehow make x become char type?
C++ :: Proper Way To Define A Variable Type
Sep 17, 2013I just compiled some code I've been working on at a different OS/compiler and realised that Code: sizeof(unsigned long) returns 4 in one pc and 8 in another.
I've heard that bytesize conventions for basic variables were not particularly "universal" before but this is the 1st time I've had a problem with it.
how do I make a typedef that clearly indicates to whatever compiler compiler I want u32 to be an 32bits unsigned and u64 to be 64bits?
C++ :: Char Data Type Variable
Jun 12, 2013I have two char variables, m_GPSOffset[13] and m_FileName[100]. When m_GPSOffset has a value assigned to it, say for instance +11:25:30. The first entry of the value, in this case +, is always stored in m_FileName. I am clueless on why this is occurring.

View 1 Replies View RelatedC++ :: Assigning Reference Variable To Another Of Same Type
Jun 4, 2012What is wrong with assigning a reference variable to another reference variable of the same type? I guess I have not understood references very well.
1- In below code, the initialization list gets error because agent "object reference variable" cannot be initialized with a reference variable of the same type.
Code:
class Intention {
public:
Intention(Agent& agent,int Id, string name);
[Code] ....
In other places I have the same problem. In below code the assignment gets error (no overloaded function for assigning a reference to another reference?)
Code:
void Agent::setWorld(World& world) {
this->world = world;
}
//Note: this->world has a type of World&
2- In this other one, I want to assign reference of a vector member to a reference variable of the same type.
Code:
vector<Intention> intentions;
...
Intention& currentIntention = intentions[intentionsIterator]
C++ :: Returning A Different Data Type Depending On A Variable?
May 2, 2013Okay, I've been working on this Texture class that's going to be compatible with both SDL and OpenGL with the capability to create an array of textures within one class as opposed to multiple classes and such.
Now I've run into a slight issue if I want to return the value of a texture. There's two different types of textures: SDL_Texture, and a standard GLuint Texture. The problem I have is that one or the other is used, not both which is depending on whether or not the person is using OpenGL.
So when the user wants to get the texture, I need the ability to return either an SDL_Texture, or GLuint depending on whether or not OpenGL is being used.
I tried this with a template class, but it didn't work, but I'll post the code so you can see what I'm trying to do.
template <class Tex> Tex Texture::GetTexture(int TextureNumber)
{
if (TextureNumber > NumTextures || TextureNumber < 0)
return;
[Code]....
It basically just comes down to the last four lines of code. If the person is Using OpenGL return a GLuint, if the person is using SDL, return an SDL_Texture.
I would prefer to have the GetTexture function to be one function instead of two separate ones so I don't have to call a different function every time to check if I'm using SDL or OpenGL.

View 14 Replies View RelatedC++ :: Initializing Static Map Of Variable Type Abstract Class?
Dec 3, 2014A have two classes, one inheriting the other, and the parent class being abstract (I plan on adding more child classes in the future). For reasons I won't bother mentioning, I'm making use of an STL container as a way for me to access all of the child objects in the heap. I've done so by making use of a map, with key type int and value type being a pointer to the parent class:
//PARENT.H
class Parent {
protected:
static int n;
static std::map<int, Parent*> map;
public:
virtual void pureVirtual() = 0;
[code]....
The Problem:In line 5 of Parent.cpp, initializing the value of the element to new Child won't work, as according to the compiler, the Child class hasn't been declared yet, and including Child.h into the Parent.h only opens an even bigger can of worms.I also can't initialize it as new Parent, seeing as the parent class is an abstract one.
The Question:Is there a way I can initialize the static map properly. Making the Parent class abstract is not an option.
Visual C++ :: Pointer To Function Type - Calculating New Variable?
Nov 22, 2012I'm fairly new to C++ and have begun working with pointers. I wish to create am array called sigmaf_point that reads data from a text file. I have managed to get that working, but when it comes to using this pointer I come across some problems. The array is created as such:
Code:
double sigma [5];
double *sigmaf_point = sigma;
void read(double *&sigmaf_point)
string s;
ifstream Dfile;
std::stringstream out;
[Code] .....
I then create a coordinate system inside the main file, as the program I am writing is about modelling the movement of atoms, which requires you to know the coordinates:
Code:
int main();
double **coords_fluid = new double*[5000];
for (int i = 0; i < n_atoms_methane; i++) {
coords_fluid[i] = new double[4];
}
Now, the problem arises when I want to calculate a new variable as so:
Code:
for (int i = 0; i <= n_atoms-1; i++) {
sf1=sigmaf_point(coords_fluid[i][3]);
}
I get the error C2064: term does not evaluate to a function taking 1 arguments, and a red line under sigmaf_point that says it must be pointer to function type. I am a bit confused about this.
C :: Set Variable Of Type Char Equal To Element In Array Of Characters
Mar 3, 2014I am trying to set a variable of type char equal to an element in an array of characters. For example:
char data[4] = "x+1";
char element;
element = data[2];
This seems like a logical progression from number arrays, but when I print both element and data[2], I get data[2] as expected, but element gives a different character every time (I assume a garbage value).
C++ :: Storing Static Class Members Of Dynamic Variable Type In DLL
Oct 15, 2013How I can implement it.
Tickable.h
#include <list>
#ifdef TICKABLE_EXPORTS //Automatically defined by MSVS
#define DLL __declspec(dllexport)
#else
#define DLL __declspec(dllimport)
#pragma comment(lib, "Tickable.lib")
#endif
class DLL Tickable{
[Code] ....
error LNK2001:
unresolved external symbol "private: static class std::list<class Tickable*,SKIPPED BITS> Tickable::subs" HUGE_SYMBOL_LIST
PATHTickable.obj
I know with such a tiny and insignificant class the dll export seems pointless but this class is actually intended to be a .lib ONLY. But it is derived from by .dll style classes, and through inheritance this error is the exact same as what appears in the derived class, I just imagine that the cut down version would be easier to work with.
Is it possible to hold either a static variable in a dll which is of a dynamic type, OR would it be possible to reference an external variable which is static throughout the instances and this variable can be chucked away in a namespace of mine somewhere?
I suppose my only other option (if this is possible) would be to define a maximum instance number and create a standard array of pointers but this could both waste so much memory when not in use and cause problems if I need more memory.

C :: Pointer Variable Indicating Memory Location - Volatile Type Qualifier
Jun 26, 2014If I have a pointer variable indicating memory location in which we have stored what user entered and the pointer is of type volatile if the user gives the character 'a' twice , then this character will not be fetched twice from the memory but only when the character is changed???
This is the one meaning of the volatile? the other is that the value will be changed without the program itself change it?
C :: Enum - Incomplete Type Is Not Allowed
Sep 30, 2014I have an enum like:
Code:
typedef enum mac_type_e{
STATIC_MAC,
BLACKLIST_MAC
} mac_type_t; and I want to use this type in a structure that's declared like:
Code:
typedef struct lan_mac_s {
UINT16 lanmacid;
enum mac_type_t lan_mac_type_pp;// user mac type per port, 20 mac_type_t array, 0 = static, 1 = blacklisted now,
The compiler tells me:
Code:
incomplete type is not allowed
enum mac_type_t lan_mac_type_pp;// user mac type per port, 20 mac_type_t array, 0 = static, 1 = blacklisted
But if I remove the preceeding "enum" keyword, it compiles fine.
C++ :: IntelliSense - Expression Must Have Integral Or Unscoped Enum Type
Sep 6, 2014So far I have the following code:
// Purpose: To write a program that displays the number of millimeters higher the current level the ocean level will be in
// in 5, 7, and 10 years.
# include <iostream>
# include <string>
using namespace std;
int main() {
float X = 10;
string Y="";
[Code] ....
But I get the following error message:
IntelliSense: expession must have integral or unscoped enum type
three times in a row for lines 25, 27, and 29 and I don't understand or know why?
In case the purpose does make sense here are the directions:
2.7: Ocean Levels
Assuming the ocean’s level is currently rising at about 1.5 millimeters per year, write a program that displays
•The number of millimeters higher than the current level that the ocean’s level will be in 5 years,
•The number of millimeters higher than the current level that the ocean’s level will be in 7 years,
•The number of millimeters higher than the current level that the ocean’s level will be in 10 years,
Output labels:
Each value should be on a line by itself, preceded by the a label of the form:
In X years the ocean's level will be higher by Y millimeters.
where X is the number of years (5, 7 or 10) and Y is the value you calculate.
