C++ :: Creating A Class To Make WinHttp Requests Easier
Apr 11, 2014
I'm using Visual C++ 2010 Express on Windows 8. What I want to do at the moment, is to create a class to make WinHttp requests easier. This is the code that I'm basically using to build the class: [URL] ....
This is what I got so far. (Completely untested). Example of how I hope that it will work:
HttpRequest MyRequest;
MyRequest.Initialize("Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.2; WOW64; rv:28.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/28.0","","");
htmlCode = MyRequest.SendRequest("www.cplusplus.com","GET","");
cout << htmlCode << endl;
The code:
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <windows.h>
#include <winhttp.h>
#pragma comment(lib, "winhttp.lib")
class HttpRequest {
[Code] ......

I know it would be easier to create an int array, but I want the program to create integers as the user requests. For example, if the user enters 4, the program creates 4 integers with the names input. Each integer is better as an individual integer, not an element in an array.I'm not sure if this is a possibility with C++.

I am looking at reducing the size of a compiled executable for easier distribution.
What factors affect the size of an output executable?
Would literally having defined and implemented less functions, would make the exec. smaller? Meaning that instead of have a DLL ( yes im on windows ), I would download the source code of a library and comment out the functions ( and code ) that I am not using -- Would this process decrease the size of my exec.?

My Windows service may download a binary update in the background using WinHTTP APIs. I'm using code similar to the one from the bottom of this MSDN page. For ease of access I'll copy if below:
Code:
DWORD dwSize = 0;
DWORD dwDownloaded = 0;
LPSTR pszOutBuffer;
BOOL bResults = FALSE;
HINTERNET hSession = NULL,
hConnect = NULL,
hRequest = NULL;
[Code] ....
The issue I'm experiencing is that while downloading, the code above "hogs" most of the bandwidth available on the client computer. My goal is to make it "throttle" itself on a configurable "bps" level, say at 50 kbps and not use any more bandwidth.
Someone suggested measuring my current download speed (in bps) and depending on the value make the thread "sleep" before calling WinHttpReadData again.
So the formula I'd use to calculate BPS is this:
BPS = (BytesDownloaded * 1000 * 8) / TimePassedInMilliseconds;
Then to convert to Mbps:
Mbps = BPS / (1024 * 1024);
And the waiting/sleep would be done as such:
Code:
DWORD DesiredBitsPerSec = 50 * 1000;//for 50 kbps
if(fBps > DesiredBitsPerSec) {
DWORD dwW = (DWORD)((fBps - DesiredBitsPerSec) * 1000) / DesiredBitsPerSec;
if(dwW > 0)
::Sleep(dwW);//Sleep to throttle the download speed to the one we need
}
So I implemented it into the code above but it didn't work -- the Sleep API would produce very strange delays. So I decided to add a little bit more tracking code to actually be able to see what BPS values I'm getting.
I created a small test project that is attached to this post to illustrate the issue. (It's hard to explain without running an example.)
For a test I began downloading a large binary file (Windows 10 MSI, off Microsoft's server) and at the same time had the Task Manager open on a Performance tab that was showing me the current network throughput. I made a screenshot:
But as you can see, the reading on the test program and the actual network BPS values differ greatly.

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.

My assignment is to create a C++ Program to find the sine of a number without any library other than iostream by using Taylor Series:
sin (x) = (x/1!) - (x^3/3!) + (x^5/5!) - (x^7/7!) + (x^9/9!) ...... (x^n/n!).
Here is what i have done till now:
#include <iostream>
double fact (int f); //declaration of factorial function
double power(double x, int y); //declaration of power function
double sin(int x); //declaration of sine function
//double cos(int x); //declaration of cosine function
//double tan(int x); //declaration of tangent function

it seems everytime i use statics in a class i come across with a porblem.
this time i wanted to make a class i created static inside another class.
MainVariables.h file
static fge::window mWinMain;
if someone ever wants to reach it
MainVariables.cpp file
fge::window MainVariables::mWinMain;
...
...
fge::window MainVariables::GetWinMain()
{
return mWinMain;
}
but when i created some other MainVariables classes at other places instead of them reaching to the same window two window is being created.
yes i know maybe there are better methods but currently i m working on polymorphism and i need some static members.

I'm currently reading the C++ Guide for Dummies
Anyway right now I'm working with pointers and classes, and when I create a new pointer for my class it looks like this...
Pen *Pointerpen = new Pen;
But in the book they threw in this...
Pen *Pointerpen = new Pen();
Can you actually designate memory space for a function? Or was this a typo on their part? It's never come up before and they didn't explain it.

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 currently working on a "bag" class which is sort of a common sense answer to creating a random class with difference functions. I am attempting to create a "union" function which takes two bags ie: bag1 and bag2, adds all the items in both bags and creates a new bag ie: "bag3". For some reason I keep coming up with problems instead of solutions. Maybe it's the fact I just got done with 2 days of calculus. I don't know. My code is below. Both a main(source) and header file.
Header
#ifndef BAG_H
#define BAG_H
const int BAG_CAPACITY = 20;
template <typename T>
class Bag {
private:
int count; // Number of items in the Bag

I have a background in c# and am very frustrated with c++. If I created a class in c# like so:
public class Memory{
int x = 0;
int y = 0;
int height = 0;
int width = 0;
string firstname = "Bob";
string lastame = "Chester";
}
and then created a new instance of this class from a separate class by doing:
public class Main{
Memory mem = new Memory();
}
I have raked the internet for a way to create a new instance of a class in c++ while keeping its default values and have come up empty handed.

I've just recently moved from Visual Basic 6 over to C++ and decided that I would try and write a class to mimic the Get/Set behavior seen in a variety of other programming languages. So instead of just using an overloaded function, i.e:
Code:
class NoProp {
LPCWSTR m_Title;
public:
void Title(LPCWSTR NewValue) {m_Title = NewValue;};
LPCWSTR Title() {return m_Title;};
[code].....
So far this code only works with the LPCWSTR type (const wchar_t*). Unfortunately I got to this stage using only that type, and now when I try another type, such as int, it fails. When using the int type I believe it creates an error because the constructor of InitProp expects a type of pointer to be parsed. When I try using it with int* type (the private variable then becoming int **m_Variable) it compiles, thought I cannot access the property like a normal int.
My best guess from here is that I probably have to overload the InitProp constructor in a way that it can setup the Property classes for base-types and pointer-types, and then also modify the Property class to handle both.

I have defined a class in a header file; just the class, no templates involved. I have a program where I'm reading in data in string format. Each string consists of a word, a delimiter, and a variable name. Example:
cajun/mustard
I want to take that string and make it the variable name of that class type. It would be implemented along the lines of:
Code:
string str;
//read/process string here, get:
str = "mustard";
createName(str);
//pass string to creator function When the function is called, I should get the variable:
Class mustard;
Thing is, I'm not supposed to know beforehand what the variable names are, only that I create them as they are read in. It could be mustard, it could be Maynard_James_Keenan, it could even be bazinga.
My problem is, what do I do for createName()? I've looked into the concepts of pairing, Factory implementation, and maps, but I don't think they answer my question.
(P.S. if I run into the same variable name being read in twice, what steps can I take to make sure that a duplicate variable isn't created? Do I need to add in code, or does the compiler know to watch for multiple variables of the same name?)

I've been given specific instructions to create an array inside a Class Matrix using a constant n. This is my class but I am getting errors. I thought that maybe I had to initialize the const and the array using the constructor function Matrix() instead of directly in the class, but I didn't have any luck with that either.
class Matrix
{
public:
Matrix();
private:
const int n=3;
int e[n][n];

I recently posted a question related to creating a heap template class. The ultimate goal is to create a series of classes that serve a purpose that was overlooked in the Qt library that I need for my current project.
The current "end goal" is a PriorityQueue template that uses a comparer class which is inherited from a "template interface". Basically a pure virtual class template. Perhaps that is the mistake to begin with but hopefully not. (Is this a valid approach?)The problem I am getting is that when I compile the code, it says my derived comparer class is abstract.
I will include all related classes here. I doubt it is relevant but the templates and the classes based off them are in different namespaces.Here is the comparer "template interface":
// in global namespace
template<class T>
class IIMQOBJECTS_EXPORT IQComparer {
virtual int compare(T& a, T& b) = 0;
virtual bool equals(T& a, T& b) = 0;
virtual bool isGreaterThan(T& a, T& b) = 0;
virtual bool isLessThan(T& a, T& b) = 0;
};
Here is the class that is supposed to be non-abstract but isn't recognized as such:
// in the application namespace AND IN SAME project that has the NetEventInfo class
// all functions ARE defined/implemented in a cpp file
class APPCORE_EXPORT NetEventInfoComparer : ::IQComparer<NetEventInfo*> {
public:
NetEventInfoComparer();
~NetEventInfoComparer();

Let's say I reference a dll in my project that has an abstract class in it:
public abstract class Module {
public string type;
public abstract string doSomething();
}
And then I have an Assembly object, loaded from a dll that is not referenced in project, but rather loaded during run-time, containing:
public class Tester : Module
{
public static string type = "Test";
public override void doSomething() {
//Stuff being done
return "hello";
}
}
How can I get the value of "type" in the class that is loaded during runtime? How do I use the "doSomething" method of it and get the returned object?

private Image[] dicePics;
private int[] diceNum;

I need to create an object of a mfc derived CFormView class that's not in the doc/template (a second view class). But it was generated with a protected ctor. Here's the code explanation with comments.
I'm thinking all the normal classes of the Doc/View template are created starting with this code, but within the template code base.
Code:
CSingleDocTemplate* pDocTemplate;
pDocTemplate = new CSingleDocTemplate(IDR_MAINFRAME,
RUNTIME_CLASS(CViewSwitchDoc), //<-expands to-> ((CRuntimeClass*)(&CViewSwitchDoc::classCViewSwitchDoc)),
RUNTIME_CLASS(CMainFrame), // main SDI frame window
RUNTIME_CLASS(CViewSwitchView));
But I have generated "another view" using the "Add Class" Wizard, it's a derived class of mfc CFormView which I named ViewForm. However I'm having a problem creating an instance of it because of the generated protected ctor and pulls a compile error of not being able to access ctor. Below are the header and implementation files of this said ViewForm class. How to create an object of this view ? Did I go about it all the wrong way since it's not in the doc/template group ?
// ViewForm.h file
#pragma once
// ViewForm form view
class ViewForm : public CFormView {
DECLARE_DYNCREATE(ViewForm)

Just mark the destructor final: [URL] ....
Well, sort of - my question is, since the destructor has to be virtual in order to be marked final (you get an error otherwise), does this cause virtual function overhead anywhere, or add a vtable?

I am creating a class called time and we've had to do operator overloading for <, > , <=, >=, ==, !=, ++, --, >>, <<, * , +, and -.
Well I have done and error checked them all. The only one I cannot seem to get right is the minus and its because of the error checking. I am having issues with times like this
t1 = 0:0:2:3
t2 = 0:0:1:4
t1 - t2 should equal 0:0:0:59 but it returns 0:0:1:-1.
(days:hours:minutes:seconds)
I need it to check for all cases and I just do not know how. Here is the code I have so far:
time operator- (const time& x, const time& y){
time subtract;
subtract.days = x.days - y.days;
subtract.hrs = x.hrs - y.hrs;
subtract.mins = x.mins - y.mins;
subtract.secs = x.secs - y.secs;

I'm trying to create a program that will play scales at certain frequencies, but my arrays are not initializing correctly. I've read up to double check what i'm doing but it doesn't seem to be working. My only guess is my use of a global variable.
const int NotesInScale = 8;
class Scales {
private:
//all Major Scales
int CMajor[NotesInScale];
int GMajor[NotesInScale];
[Code] ....
i'm simply trying to put the frequencies in the scales (the numbers in the array) but I keep getting an error. I feel its a simple fix but i'm not seeing it.
