C++ :: Function Pointers Inside Array
Apr 6, 2014
Ive recently got into function pointers, i find that they can be quite handy for making your program very 'dynamic'.
However, the syntax is very confusing for what i want to do
This is what i want to do
I want to hold function pointers inside an array, but this array is dynamically allocated ( malloc, realloc, etc )
This is the current syntax ive come up with, but i dont think it is correct
void ( **drawFunc ) ( void*, SDL_Surface* );

I have a problem with pointer array, i passed a 2d array to a function but then i dont know how to make operations on it !!!
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int fun_name (int * arr) {
for (int i = 0;i< ??? ;i++) // how to compare while i don't know the size of array!!
[Code] ....

I am new to C++ and am trying to modify an array inside of a function.
It is of my understanding that you cannot return an array from a function?
Would writing it to a data file and then retrieving it be a solution to this problem?

im tasked with creating a linear search script using functions on a 10 element array. the elements are to be supplied by the user as is the search target.
I understand how to create the array and gather that information from the user as well as howto set a variable for "target", this is what im calling it. Those two parts are simple enough.
I am not fully understanding the calling of an array in a function as a pointer. i semi understand the use of a pointer and howto call a normal pointer in a function. i also understand that an array is nothing more then a "special" pointer with a set of consecutive address blocks for the size of the array.
My first user defined function is simple enough
Code:
ReadArray(int A[], int size){
int i;
printf("Please enter %d integer numbers separated by spaces:
", size);
for (i = 0; i < size; i++)
scanf("%d", &A[i]);
}
Sso nothing out of the ordinary there. that should be a standard for loop and use of scanf, sadly prof has not covered ssanf or any of the other options so i am stuck using scanf for now. maybe someday down the line in a other program or after this course ill get the chance to learn about better options for gathering data from the user.
I am confused as to my next function:
Code:
void SearchArray(int A[], int target, int size);
I've not written any code here yet as im not sure if i should call the A[], or *A for the first type of the function?
If i call *A do i then use something like this for my search:
Code:
for (*A = 0; *A < size; *A++)
if (*A < target) or use A[] insteadA?
Code:
for (i = 0; i < size; i++)
if (A[i] = target)

I basically have some code that lets users register callbacks into a callback table at a specified index. There is one element in this table for each event that can trigger a callback. I basically do something like this:
In a header file
Code:
typedef struct _GMclient
{
GMcommunicator gcomm;
GMclient_callback callback_table[(int)MAX_CALLBACKS];
}GMclient;
typedef int (*GMclient_callback)(GMclient*, void*, void*);
Then I allow them to set the callback with a function that basically ends up doing this (in a .c file that includes the previous mentioned .h file):
Code:
void
GMclient_register_callback(GMclient *client,
GMclient_callback fxn,
int index)
[Code] ....
Then later when I need to invoke that callback, I pull it out of the table
Code: GMclient_callback *fxn = client->callback_table[CMD_INDEX];
However, I get compilation errors:
Code: src/gmanager_client.c:43:6:
error: a label can only be part of a statement and a declaration is not a statement...

How would I pass let say 2 array pointers to a function X , allocate memory for them in X , fill them with values and get them back in my main function without creating a structure.
example:
Code:
void X(int *a, int*b){
a= malloc ...
b = malloc ...
// fill a and b
return them back to the main function
}
void main(){

I'm trying to create an array of pointers to pointers which will point to array of pointers (to strings) I tried
Code:
int i;
char *string[]={
"my name is dave",
"we like to dance together",
"sunny day",
"hello",

I have a a group of text files that are used as input into a program. Another very similar program needs the same data in a different input format. I am writing a program that will read in each line of data and parse it. I have successfully written the program in main() such that it will read until the end of file. However, I am trying to re-write the program such that the algorithm is in an external function and will read one line at a time and then pass all of the character strings to the main program. The program will not compile and I am positive it has to do with an incorrect use of arrays in passing the variable "token". I am attaching a copy of the main program and the function.
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <cstring>
#include <stdio.h>
void Line_Parse(std::ifstream&,std::ostream&,const char* token);
int main(int argc, const char * argv[]) {

I'm trying to create an array of function pointers and then assign compartilbe functions to them, so I can just call *pf[0](xxx);
The functions are all of the type
void func01(unsigned char*, int, int)
how would I create an array of function pointers and assign the address of the functions to them? So I could call them like
ptrToFunction[i](charBuffer, 10, 20);
I've read a bit on line and I thought I could do it but so far I've failed.
It seems trivial and I feel I'm close but close isn't good enough.
I'd like to assign the fuction addresses like this:
for (int i=0; i<10; i++)
if (i==1)
ptrToFunction[i]=func01;
if (i==2)
ptrToFunction[i]=func02;
etc.
The actual logic is somewhat different than this but this close.

The premise of this assignment is to create a menu driven, array of functions calculator. This is the code I have thus far (I haven't finished all of my comments yet, I've been to focused on clearing errors).
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <math.h>
/*prototypes*/
void sum (int a, int b);
void dif (int a, int b);
void pro (int a, int b);
void quo (int a, int b);
void printMenu();
[Code] .....
I am using Visual Studio as a compiler, and I have the following errors:
error C2144: syntax error : 'int' should be preceded by ')'
error C2660: 'sum' : function does not take 0 arguments
error C2059: syntax error : ')'
error C2144: syntax error : 'int' should be preceded by ')'
[Code] .....
I can only assume that I am making simple mistakes.

I am having following pointer variable declaration
Code: Static double (*funcs[]) (double) = { sin,cos,tan,asin,acos};
Here funcs is an array of pointers to functions which take double as input and gives double as output with static as storage type am I right.

i want to use a class to print data stored as vector or array with different data types. i also want the print function two take more than one vector or array or combination of both so that they can be written to file as two columns. so i wrote the following class:
right now it has only one member function for printing two vectors. later i'll add additional functions as required.
note: there has to be template functions inside the class
i also want the object to be global so that i need not pass it as an argument to other calling functions
class printdata
{
public:
template<typename T1,typename T2>
void SaveData( vector<T1> &data1,vector<T2> &data2, std::string var)
{
[Code]....
then i want to call this template function in another ordinary function written in a seperate cpp file
these function declarations are put in a header file. so i need know whether i should put the declaration of the template function in the header to use the function in different functions

I keep on getting error message while trying to pass a function inside a for_each loop.. I have a vector and i used for_each loop to go through the rows in that vector, Now I need a function to do something
Example this is what I am trying to achieve
for_each (label.begin(), label.end(), addToTemporaryVector());
void DataPartitioning::addToTemporaryVector(){
cout<<"sucess";
}
But I get an error message saying: error: invalid use of void expression

How would I generate nodes inside a function for example I have a head node
Node * head = new Node;
Now I want to generate nodes for as long as the for loop is running
void CreateList(Node * h) {
for(int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
Node * n1 = new Node;
head -> next = n1;
} }
Something like this but it should keep adding nodes to the list and change the head each time so how would I do this...

i usually use this method for accesing functions in executables, the code is executed from a DLL (always works, except when the function are inside of a class, even tho is public):
.h:
typedef int (*pgObjViewportClose) (OBJECTSTRUCT* gObj);
extern pgObjViewportClose gObjViewportClose;
.cpp
pgObjViewportClose gObjViewportClose = (pgObjViewportClose) 0x04F1940;
That works, but i can't get it to work if the accesing function is inside of a class, i get Unhandled Exception while trying to access a function inside a class, is there a way to do it?.

In the following code:
#include <iostream> // For stream I/O
using namespace std;
int function(int a) {
return a;
}
int main() {
function(int b);
}
Why is creating a variable inside the function argument list not allowed. Any reason other then for the language syntax or just for the language syntax?

Say you had:
class Foo{
public:
//...
void funky();
[Code] .....
Would each instance of Foo create a new counter variable, or would it remain the same for all of them, i.e. baz.funky() would always use the same counter variable? What if the class was a template?

This is a program I developed in which we had to define a class named BOOK with the data members and member functions as shown in the program..We have to:
(i) Make the user enter the values in the array BOOK.
(ii) Display the details that the user entered.
(iii) Search for a book from the array upon its Bno and display its details.
(iv) Search for a book from the array upon its Bname and display its details.
PROGRAM:
#include<iostream.h>
#include<conio.h>
#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>
class BOOK {
private:
int Bno;
char Bname[20];
[Code] .....
But while running it the compiler gives the errors as:
Line 43 to 48: Illegal character '' (0x5c)
Line 69: Undefined symbol 'Display'
Line 88: 'BOOK::Bno' is not accessible.
Line 89:'BOOK::Bname' is not accessible.
Line 90:'BOOK::Author' is not accesible.
Line 91:'BOOK::Price' is not accesible.
Line 108:'BOOK::Bno' is not accessible.
Line 109:'BOOK::Bname' is not accessible.
Line 110:'BOOK::Author' is not accesible.
Line 111:'BOOK::Price' is not accesible.
from 43 to 48..the line feed was also used at many other places but there it was not given as an error so why here?
Line 69: I defined the Display() function outside the class since it contained control structures, so what's the error then?
About the lines the rest of the error( the "not accessible" ones) I know these data members are not accessible because they are in private visibility mode. But then how to make them accessible? (Without putting them in public because it was a part of the question to create the data members in private).

I've written an Array class to create 1d,2d and 3d array and it works fine for every test : example of the constructor of the array class for 2d case:
Array::Array( int xSize, int ySize ) {
xSize_ = xSize;
ySize_ = ySize;
zSize_ = 1;
vec.resize(xSize*ySize);
}
It works fine , but when i need to use this constructor inside of other constructor, i get the "no matching function error" ,
part of my code:
class StaggeredGrid {
public:
StaggeredGrid ( int xSize1, int ySize1, real dx, real dy ) : p_ (2,2) {}

So, I have this code:
...
MakeTexture((char*)ilGetData(), ilGetInteger(IL_IMAGE_WIDTH), ilGetInteger(IL_IMAGE_HEIGHT));
...
And it compiles fine and, supposedly, works fine too, but when I try to put a break point inside the MakeTexture fuction gdb just goes crazy, it freezes and starts alocating memory until it reaches like 30+ mbs, and after that codeblocks freezes and I have to terminate the gdb process to return everything back to normal.
Now, another weird thing is that this only happens if I pass (char*)ilGetData(), if I pass something like NULL to the function, this doesn't happen.
Oh, also, the MakeTexture function is this:
int MakeTexture(char *pxData, unsigned w, unsigned h)
{
return 0;
}

Alright, so I have a code that's not giving me errors, but it doesn't seem to retain what I put into an array. Not sure If I'm missing something...
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
int main (void)
{
const char *pointer;
const char alphabet[] = "ABCDEFG";
pointer = &alphabet[5];
printf("pointing to %c of the alphabet
", pointer);
return 0;
}
Trying to get my pointer to return the letter in the [5] spot or "F". Not receiving any errors when compiling, but I seem to get different answers every time I run it.
