C++ :: Dynamic Creation Of Arrays Of Pointers To Arrays Of Pointers

Apr 15, 2013

I'm trying to write a function that takes a 32bit address and a data to store at this address.

I'm wanting to take the 32 bit memory address eg 0x12345678 and split it
into 4 x 2 bytes
12, 34, 56, 78

then each of the 4 entries is at most a 256 entry array.eg
FF, FF, FF, FF

So in this example, 0x12 points to 0x34 in the second array, which points to 0x56 in the third array, which finally points to 0x78 in the last array. This last array holds the actual data.

After successfully doing 0x12345678, say I might get a read for 0x1234AABB. So, the first and second pointers already exist, but I then have to create and write to dynamically created arrays.

The arrays need to have all entries set to NULL so that i know whether to follow the pointers to overwrite a previously entered value or create new arrays and pointers.

It all looks good and simple in the pseudo code I've written up but I'm having trouble coding it. I'm currently trying to deal with the first entry case, ie all array elements are NULL, but I'm getting confused with the pointers and creation of new arrays.

void cpu::store(unsigned int mem_add,unsigned int mem_val) {
int first = (mem_address&4278190080)>>24;
int second = (mem_address&16711680)>>16;
int third = (mem_address&65280)>>8;
int fourth= (mem_address&255);

[Code] .....

A1 has been declared as
int* A1[256] ;

C :: Dynamic Arrays And Pointers

Feb 11, 2013

I am having troubles with dynamic arrays and pointers. All the errors are of that kind. I think when I am assigning malloc to an array we assign to its address.

Code:
/*Create an array of genes of the large matrix*/
gene_t gene,gene1,gene2;
gene=malloc(INITIAL*sizeof(gene2)); Code:
while(...) {
if (gene_num==current_size){

C++ :: How To Use Dynamic Memory Allocation And Pointers To Iterate Through The Arrays

Dec 21, 2014

I need to use dynamic memory allocation and use pointers to iterate through the arrays that I have already in this program. I am lost, nothing I do works and where to use the pointers. I am just looking for a push in the right direction so I can finish this project and how I can implement pointers in my program.

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iomanip>
#include <stdio.h>
using namespace std;

C++ :: Fill Value Of Dynamic Array Of Dynamic Arrays?

Jan 4, 2013

I'm writing a program in which I have to use a matrix to represent a file in code. because it's a file, the size of the matrix is undefined, and therefore the matrix has to be dynamic. I found out that my compiler doesn't like dynamic multidimensional arrays, so I was thinking of this matrix as a dynamic (monodimensional) array of other dynamic (monodimensional) arrays. My program (and thus this example) uses unsigned chars.

unsigned char variable=something;
unsigned char**matrix=new unsigned char*[lenghtOfMainArray];
for(int rowNumber=0;rowNumber<lenghtOfArray;rowNumber++)
{

C :: Dynamic Array Of Pointers To String

Jun 11, 2013

I have a little problem with one of my functions. The function purpose is to get a number (n) and create an array (size n) with pointers to strings (each string length is 20 chars) and i don't know why but during the debugging i get a <bad ptr> message and this message :

CXX0030: Error: expression cannot be evaluated

This is my function:

Code:
char** getlist(int n) {
int i=0;
char **arr;
arr=(char**)malloc(sizeof(char)*n);
if (arr==NULL)

C :: Dynamic Allocation Of String Pointers

Mar 12, 2014

The snippet below (or similar) compiles and runs OK but I am using Visual Studio C++ compiler. Are the lines where .nameFirst and .nameLast assigned kosher in ANSI C?

Also I am concerned about the memory allocation for these string constants. Does the runtime system put them on the heap? It doesn't seem that they are really constants since they are not defined before runtime.

Code:

#include "stdlib.h"
typedef struct
{
unsigned id;
char* nameFirst;
char* nameLast;
} myList;

C++ :: Dynamic Array Of Pointers Declaration?

Jan 30, 2013

I am attempting to declare an array of pointers dynamically based on user input. I am not sure if A) I'm implementing the syntax of declaring a dynamic array correcntly and B) if my code is set up correctly to print otherwise.

int array_size;
cout << "Please enter the size of the array: " << endl;
cin >> array_size;
if(array_size >= 8) {
cout << "Invalid array size, please enter a valid integer size";
cin >> array_size;

C/C++ :: Dynamic Array Of Pointers Syntax?

Sep 23, 2014

I know that the synatx for a dynamic array of values is, for example:

int* a = new int[size];

And i understand that "a" is a pointer to the 1st element of the array on the heap.

Now, the syntax for a dynamic array of pointers is:

int** b = new int*[size];

C :: Double Pointers And Dynamic Memory Allocation?

Nov 16, 2013

we are currently covering double pointers and memory allocation. Currently getScrabbleWords is not working. when I compile with commented code (Main() works fine) I get a segmentation fault.

This is the purpose of getScrabbleWords:

char **getScrabbleWords(char **allWords, char letters[]):

This function takes an array of char* values (i.e. strings) representing all the words read from wordlist.txt. Each of these words is tested by callingcanWeMakeIt as a helper function, and pointers to the words that can be made are put into an array, myWords. Note, copies of the words are not made! In order to indicate the end of myWords, we terminate with a NULL pointer. Thus, if N words can be made from letters then myWords should have length N+1.

C/C++ :: Pointers - Scope Of Dynamic Allocation And Delete

Apr 13, 2014

I have the following code here. My questions are:

1. Pointers can be used as pass by reference. When I dynamically allocated memory for array[50] in the run function, does that mean I am changing the size of the pArray in main as well? Or does the scope of array[50] ends with the function run? if so, should I do a delete [] Array inside the run function?

2. When I do delete[] pArray in main, what does it delete? memory for array[50]? or array[100]?

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
void run(int* Array, int& s) {
s = 50;
Array = new int[s];

C :: Dynamic Memory Allocation - Resize Array Of Pointers

May 23, 2013

Suppose I wished to reallocate memory (resize) an array of pointers. Why does the following not work?(The program runs, yet yields a faulty segmentation error message. Why?):

Code: char **ptrarr = (char**) malloc(sizeof(char*))

Code: ptrarr = (char**) realloc(ptrarr, (capacity) * sizeof(char*));

C++ :: Dynamic Arrays Error?

Mar 4, 2014

i was trying to make a dynamic array in this form :

int x;
cin>>x;
int ar[x];

my g++ (gcc) compiler on linux refused to create an array without a fixed size , however using the same code on windows on dev-cpp it was complied and executed , also it allowd me to create and use the dynamic array , i thought it was a compiler bug , however when i restarted and returned to g++ it compiled and executed the code although it never did before i tried the code on windows , how can that be and is it dangerous ?

C++ :: Dynamic Memory Allocation (arrays)

Feb 24, 2014

I have recently bought a copy of "Jumping into C++" and have come to chapter 14 ( dynamic memory location) and have a question.

On page 153-154 an example of dynamic allocation is given for array's of int. How would the code look like for strings or structs ?

The allocation was given by:

Code:
int *growArray (int* p_values, int *size)
{
*size *= 2;
int *p_new_values = new int[ *size ];
for ( int i = 0; i < *size; ++i )
{
p_new_values[ i ] = p_values[ i ];
}
delete [] p_values;
return p_new_values;
}

Sample Code I tried to use this for an array of structs but failed completely....

I used the following struct Code:

struct user{
int days;
string name;
};

and the allocation function (which does not work):

Code:
struct user *growarray (struct user *p_values, int *size) {
*size *= 2;
struct user *p_new_values = new struct user[ *size ];
for ( int i = 0; i < *size; ++i )

C++ :: Freeing Dynamic Arrays From Memory

Sep 27, 2013

So I'm trying to wrap my head around dynamic arrays, and I've finally figured out how to build one, using

int arraysize = randomnumber;
int* arrayname = new int[arraysize];

Now, how to delete the array. Can I free the whole array from any scope in my program using a simple line like delete arrayname;?

Also, since I'm working in heap, I can't rely on the debugger to show me when I'm doing something wrong, If I create a struct such as :

struct twoints {int one, int two};

and then try to create a dynamic array of said struct using

int arraysize = 5;
twoints* arrayname = new twoints[arraysize];

Am I basically creating an array of 5 two ints?

//is it the same as doing this?

twoints arrayname[5];

C++ :: Proper Declaration Of Dynamic Arrays

Dec 10, 2013

I started to practice some C++. I use to program in C and a little C++. Anyway, I am writing code that creates a dynamic array. I would like to be able to do something like

galaxyobject[object] -> uniqueid = in the class but I do not think I have it setup right.

Question.
1. Is the code correct?
2. Why can't I use the above line without a compile error or segment fault?

int main() {
cout << "ProteusCore Server" << endl;

// create a galaxy system with a certain amount of objects
galaxy galaxysystem;
galaxysystem.IntializeGalaxy(100);

[Code] ....

I made the code available to see on sourceforge as Proteus 3d Game Engine. It is something I would like to work on.

C++ :: Pointer To Point Dynamic Arrays?

Jan 31, 2013

Do I really need to create a separate pointer to point to dynamic arrays?

T* temp = new T[capacity_ * 2];
T* tIter = &temp; //Do these need to be here?
T* dIter = &data; //Or can I use *(temp + i) and *(data + i)?
(for unsigned int i = 0; i < size_; i++) {
*(tIter + i) = *(dIter + i);
}

C++ :: Creating Dynamic Arrays / Structures

Feb 7, 2012

We are supposed to create a menu with an option to add a car (make, model etc) to inventory. I have the structure format set up as far as adding the car, but I am stuck on how to make it a dynamic array of structures or whatnot (I'm not really sure on what I'm trying to do in the first place!) Basically, the user can choose to add a car and its info in. How do you set up the array to add whatever number of cars is needed? Will it be able to add more cars should the user come back to the program later?

This is the instruction of this portion of the project :

Menu Application
Add a car to inventory
Prompted to add
Make, Model and Year, Color, Miles, Price
Finish (adds the car to the file)
Cancel takes you to the main menu

C++ :: Use Different Pointers For Arrays?

Dec 24, 2013

So when if you want to change the values themselves for example in an array (just for example) this is valid;

void test(int* test)
{
test[0] += 10;
}
int bob[] {1, 3, 5};

If you did that bob[0] would not equal 11. All well and good right?

Now if you do this?

int sally = 33;
test(sallay);

This wouldn't work at all you actually have to use

void test(int& test)
{
test += 10;
}

how the memory addresses etc. are working here? I don't understand why you need to use & the reference operator if it's not an array? Why wouldn't that still work?
