C/C++ :: Creating A Temporary Vector Of Pointers?
Sep 10, 2014
Is it possible to create a temporary
std::list of pointers
I would like to pass a temporary
std::list
to the constructor of a class to initialize its own one.
For example, using a
std::vector
:
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
void func(const std::vector<int*>& myVec) {
for(int i=0; i<myVec.size(); ++i){
[code]....
Can we do this? What are other possible problems in addition the ones I have just mentioned above?

I have a structure, containing a pointer as a member. I dynamically create an array of that structure type, and then need to dynamically create an array for its pointer member.
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
[Code]....
There is more of my program afterwards, but it shouldn't matter. The errors I am getting at compile time are that I cannot convert an int pointer to an int (line 29) and that test is not a member of CourseGrade (lines 44/45).
My thought is I might be using the * operator incorrectly. My code before hand in line 29 was
for (i = 0; i < numberStudents; i++)
*studentPtr[i]->tests = new int[numberTests];
but the compiler suggested a '.' rather then the '->'

I am making two classes using the juce library [URL] ....
this is a problem that has now come up after solving an earlier problem i posted but its a completely seperate issue.
i have a class for loading a file when i button is clicked that seems to work. Here is the function in my LoadButton cpp:
void LoadButton::buttonClicked(Button* button)
{
FileChooser pedoFileChooser ("Choose an Audio File", File::nonexistent, String::empty, true);
if (pedoFileChooser.browseForFileToOpen())
{
File pedoFile (pedoFileChooser.getResult());
}
}
I want to be able to then use the file stored in pedoFile in the cpp of another class called PlayButton. I tried doing this with a pointer? not sure if that's correct way of doing it (i know very little about C++ or programming) by changing the function to this. I'm getting the error invalid initialisation of non-const reference of type 'juce::File*&' from a temporary of type 'juce::File'
void LoadButton::buttonClicked(Button* button)
{
FileChooser pedoFileChooser ("Choose an Audio File", File::nonexistent, String::empty, true);
if (pedoFileChooser.browseForFileToOpen())
{
File* &pedoFile = (pedoFileChooser.getResult());
}
}

I was trying to implement own vector class and wrote some code. Below is the code.
Code: #include<iostream>
#include<vector>
using namespace std;
template <typename T> class MyVector
{
T *mem;
int m_size,final_size;
public:
MyVector() : final_size(1),m_size(4)
{
[code].....
I have question on this function.
Code: myVecPush_back(T t){}
Here I was able to put elements upto any number of time, but I have allocated memory to only 4 elements in T *mem.
My question, why the program is not crashing when I tried to put elements more that 4?
Is since the variable is of type Template? Any specific reason for this?

I am new to smart pointers and have a question.If you push a smart pointer onto a vector and then some where later pop it back off it will delete the memory right?

I have something like this:
class A {
};
class B : public A {
};
class C : public A {
};
B*b1;
B*b2;
C*c1;
C*c2;
vector<A*>vec;
int main() {
vec.push_back(b1);
vec.push_back(b2);
[Code] ....
And it don't works at all. all i get (when playing with variations of this stuff until it compiles correctlly) is a memory leak.
For example, let say i have b1 address = 1234
I will effectively free the memory at 1234, but for a strange reason, the memory leak is elsewhere, for example, at 2345, and the memory value at this address is equal to... 1234, the address of the pointer i wanted to delete.

Currently I am implementing the A* algorithm in C++. I have chosen to use a hybrid of a '2D vector grid' and two 1D pointer vectors to specific places in the '2D vector grid'. I have chosen to do it this way, so I can access the nodes using coordinates and also for iterating over the appropriate nodes(rather than the whole '2D vector grid').
In the below examples I have not included the full code because I deemed it irrelevant to the question.
vector <int> CInGame::AStarAlgorithm(vector<vector<bool>>& resistanceMap, int startX, int startY, int targetX, int targetY, int cutOff) {
vector <int> returnVec;
vector <vector<CNode>> twoDimNodes;
vector <CNode*> openSet;
vector <CNode*> closedSet;
[code].....
The error is:
_BLOCK_TYPE_IS_VALID(pHead->nBlockUse)
do I need to free the pointers or is it done automatically? If not then how would I do this?

I made a vector of pointers and the problem is that I have trouble deleting the pointers in the vector. I used to simply do vector.clear() or vector.erase() however it does not clear the actual memory. And I tried something like this:
std::vector<Foo*> Vector;
std::vector<Foo*>::iterator i;
for (i = Vector.begin(); i < Vector.end(); i++)
delete *i;

If I have a Vector of pointers, how can I iterate through that vector, to access the name function of each object in the vector? There seems to be a problem with my implementation, the output returns only random symbols.
Implementation of the name() function in Drug.cpp:
//name() is a function returning the name in the parent class
string Drug::name() {
string out = "Drug: ";
out += mName + " [ ";
//The problem is with this loop
for (int k = 0; k < mComponents.size(); k++)

I have a vector of pointers inside a seperate Exam class.
vector <Question* > question_list
The Question class is my base class in which I have derived sub classes for the different types of questions (MultipleChoice, LongAnswer, etc.). I am using my vector to hold the different types of questions.
in each of those classes I have virtual "write" functions in both the base and the derived classes, that write to a file differing for each type of question.
My problem now is calling the write function from a Exam function. I've tried several methods, such as:
for (size_t i = 0; i < question_list.size(); i++) {
question_list[i].write(testfile.c_str());
}
but it comes with two errors: "error C2228:left of '.write' must have class/struct/union" along with "IntelliSense: expression must have class type"
I have made a write function for the exam class as well but am not sure what it should include since the Exam class is not a derived class of the Question class.

I need to create a vector of pointers and hold the book objects in it. then i have a virtual function in my books which is a pure virtual in LibraryItems. When i try to add the books object in my code, i understand that since the scope runs out there is no object that is added. so when i run print it gives me an error.
#include<iostream>
#include "books.h"
#include "library.h"
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
int main(int argc, char * argv[]) {
vector<LibraryItems* >libraryInfo;

Im creating a program for a race. The Race class has a vector of results and each element of that vector is a pointer to a result. The Result class has a Time and a pointer to a Participant. So in each race there are various results and it is a result for each participant.The Time is a class that has hours, minutes and seconds. How can I sort the vector of results from the result of the participant with the fastest time to the result of the participant with the slowest time?My code is like this:
//.h file:
class Time {
unsigned int hours;
unsigned int minutes;
unsigned int seconds;
[code]....
What am I missing to get my code to work?

Lets say for example I have the following vector:
vector<Component*> mComponents;
and a function print() inside of class Component that prints the objects name.
How do I loop/iterate through the vector to access the print function in each object.

In a numerically intensive code, I have a Cartesian vector class Vector3d which has the normal operator overloading and basic functions such as dot product, magnitude, etc. For simplicity, assume that it is not a templated class and its components are of type double.
I frequently need large 1-d arrays (e.g. stl vectors) of Vector3d. Two use-cases must be satisfied:
1) The trivial case in which the data are stored as stl vectors of Vector3d;
2) The more difficult case where the individual components are stored as stl vectors of double, and are not guaranteed to be contiguous in memory (so one cannot rely on "stride").
Assuming the array lengths are all identical, I'd like to be able to access both types in a single loop. The straightforward way for case 2) is to construct a temporary Vector3d from the three components (indexed with the loop index). However, I would prefer not to incur the overhead of the constructor.
Is it possible using template metaprogramming. Ideally I'd like a CompositeVector3d that inherits from Vector3d and is constructed with the component vectors, but can be dereferenced using the loop index in the same way as one would do with case 1.
I am not looking for the typical template metaprogramming utility of being able to operate on the entire array without explicit loops. I just want the syntactic "sugar" whereby CompositeVector3d and Vector3d act the same, plus the avoidance of the cost of the constructor. I am not averse to using an additional templated class (perhaps a Field or a View class) to access the basic storage in both case.
Is it possible to do this without using a full template metaprogramming utility?

In my problem I am to create a base class to represent a four vector (a concept in physics involving a four dimensional vector) then create a derived class specifically to represent the four momentum of a particle which inherits from the base class. I have been supplied a small piece of code to use to generate a 'random' x y and z component of the momentum magnitude. The code is as follows
#include <cstdlib>
double triangular(double momentum){
double x, y;
do{
x = momentum*rand()/RAND_MAX;
y = x/momentum;
} while (1.0*rand()/RAND_MAX > y);
return x;
}
It is said in my problem that this code is supposed to generate the magnitude, and then randomly split into x, y and z components. This code returns a single value and so I cannot see how it is doing what it says in the problem.

I have a vector (structures) in a struct (instances). I make a declaration of this struct called instance. The vector is a 3-layer vector of pointers, like so:
vector < vector < vector<scene::IAnimatedMeshSceneNode*> > > structures; (The type is from Irrlicht 3D). I have 3 nested "for" loops which looks similar to the following:
for (int a = 0; a < instance.structures.size(); a++) { /*note:vector size previously set*/
for (int b = 0; b < instance.structures[a].size(); b++){
for (int c = 0; c < instance.structures[a][b].size(); c++) {
if (1) { //checking value of variable not included in snippet
(instance.structures)[a][b][c] = smgr->addAnimatedMeshSceneNode(fl);
(instance.structures)[a][b][c]->setPosition(renderPos);
}
}
}
}
The problem is in these two lines, I think:
(instance.structures)[a][b][c] = smgr->addAnimatedMeshSceneNode(fl);
(instance.structures)[a][b][c]->setPosition(renderPos);
These are currently referencing the pointers, it seems. The program compiles but crashes at this point. I need them to reference the values of the pointers. Problem is, I don't know where to put the dereference operator (*). Where should it go?

Using SFML, I had a Board class which held multiple vectors of all of my object types in the game, and then it also held a vector of pointers to the memory addresses of these object instances, like this
class Board{
//...
std::vector<AbstractObject*> GetAllLevelObjects(){ return allLevelObjects; }
//so these are used to hold my object instances for each level
[Code]....
When looping through this vector and drawing the sprites of the objects, I get the runtime error 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x00277000. I solved this error by storing the vector of pointers in the class that holds my Board instance, but I'm wondering why only this solution worked? Why couldn't I just have my vector of pointers in the same class that the instances of those objects were in?

This code work perfectly, as follows.
Code #A:
#include <iostream>
#include <cstring>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
typedef std::vector <void *> gr_vector_void_star;
gr_vector_void_star output_items;
[Code] .....
Output of above code #A:
char * sentence = "Angel";
for (int i=0; i < 5; i++)
{ out[i] = sentence[i]; } // error: invalid conversion from 'char' to 'char*' [-fpermissive]
It fails to compile with error message "invalid conversion from 'char' to 'char*'".

I'm currently writing a chunk of code that will take inputs from the user and push them into a vector until 0 is entered, at which point it will break the loop and continue on with the rest of the program. This is nothing I haven't done before, but I have never encountered this error.
The code chunk looks like this:
typedef vector <int> ivec;
int main() {
ivec nums;
int input;
while (true) {
cout << "Enter a positive integer, or 0 to quit" << endl;
[Code] ....
My standard testing input has been 3 5 6 3 8 (then 0 to quit), so one would expect my sequence to be 3 5 6 3 8...but instead after the 8 I get a random number value that is usually quite large and I cannot figure out where it comes from (ex. 3 5 6 3 8 201338847).

I have a class called Question:

#include <vector>
using namespace std;
class Question {
string title;
vector<Thing*> posAns;
vector<Thing*> negAns;
[Code] ....
error: no instance of overloaded function 'std::vector::push_back()' matches the arguments list
argument types are (const Thing *)
object type is: std:: vector<Thing *, std::allocator<Thing *>>
So it cannot be constant, what if I just leave it non-constant? Will it be safe?

Please consider the following code :
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
class superclass;
class subclass1;
class subclass2;
[Code] ....
As you can see I want to create a dynamically allocated storage of references to a parent class each of which can then point to a child class, how ever I do not know how to extract the child class out again from that array so i may access its variable b.

a function returns a temporary object like
int myfun(){
int x = 0;
return x;
}
this function will return a temporary integer now void fun1(const int & num); this function can receive from myfun().BUT void fun2(int & num); this function cannot receive from myfun() Why is that, Moreover what is lifetime of a temporary object like one returned in myfun() ???
