C++ :: Writing Plugin Framework / System For Game
Mar 23, 2014So I'm trying to accomplish something that right seems to hard for it to be worth it. I'm trying to write a plugin framework/system for my game. I have read about it and everything that pops up says it's OS-specific and you have to load the plugins from either a .so file on linux or from a .dll file on Windows. So here lie my questions:
-Is there any universal way of accomplishing this?
-Every way I've seen assumes i know the names of the functions I'm calling which doesn't hold true if the plugin are written by a 3rd party. How would i turn the table on this matter?
C++ :: Game Design Practice For Accessing Container Of Game Objects
Dec 21, 2014I'm working on my first video game. So far I have a few classes in the game starting with the Game class which includes a list of GameObjects (another class). There are several classes that inherit from GameObjects used to implement things like bullets, explosions, various enemy types, etc.
The game essentially iterates through the list of GameObjects to update/render them. I would like to provide access to the Game's list of GameObjects inside another class (like the Bullet class) so I can put new objects on the list. For example, when a bullet hits, I want to add an explosion to the Game's GameObject list it can be updated/rendered.
How this should be setup? I was considering adding a pointer to the Game or GameObject list to the GameObject class (and methods to access it), but I was wondering if there is a better way to set this up?

View 2 Replies View RelatedC++ :: How To Start A Printer Queue
Nov 30, 2014Write a program to simulate a printer queue (priority queue or heap – Bentley article has code) where 3 printers are “fed” by this queue. Each print job has an unchanging priority and higher priority jobs go first (although once started, a job isn't stopped to let a higher one go). For each unit of time, there is a 26% probability that a job will be added to the queue and all jobs take 8 time units to complete. Print job priorities are between 5 and 100. The queue opens 20 time units prior to the start of printing for adding print “jobs”. A print “day” is 1000 time units. The output from your program is:
1) A list of jobs completed with their priorities for each printer
2) A list of jobs not completed (if any).

May 19, 2013How to write a simple script to convert F to C. That was easy enough once I read about how C treats the math of 5/9 being less then 1 thus converts to 0. Fixed that issue and the code works great.
I find it a useful tool and would like to, way outside of the scope of the homework mind you, figure out a way to get the script to restart if a [Yy] answer is provided at the end of the script. All other responses result in return(0).
I only have limited knowledge in BASH scripting. In BASH i would have just placed the int main(void) {foo} into a single function then created a simple if/then test after the function is called.
Reading up on functions in C, they do not work in the same way I would like to treat them from BASH. understandable this is not BASH.
then i started looking into do/while loops. On an other forum someone pointed out the possibility of using fgets as part of the challenge response. Now when I try to compile the code im getting an odd result. for some reason the compiler seems to think that my character string(or is it an array) is an integer...
Code:
/* 5. Write a program to convert a temperature in degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius. *///##########################################################
// Created by Raymond L. Brunkow
//
// This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
// it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by

[Code] ....
//above is were the homework ends, below is what im trying to do now.
/* Prompt for new input */
printf("
Would you like to enter a new temperature [Y]es or [N]o? ");
fgets( BUFFER, sizeof(BUFFER), stdin );
}
while ( sscanf( BUFFER, "%1s%*1s", ANS ) != 1 || strchr( "YyNn", *ANS ) == NULL );
return(0);
}
This results in the following error:
Code:
$ gcc -o hw_1_5.v2 hw_1_5.v2.c
hw_1_5.v2.c: In function "main":

View 4 Replies View RelatedC# :: Switch To End Or Start Of Array Depending On Conditions?
Apr 1, 2015I have a seat allocation algorithm for an airplane 30 x 6 seats. The plane is 'split' front (1 - 15) and back (16 -30), right (A,B,C) and left (D,E,F). I am placing passengers in window seats front right centre (15A) first then back left centre (16F) followed by (15F) followed by (16A). This will continue for single passengers middle seats then aisle.
Another part of the algorithm is to ensure parties >2 or <=6 to sit together in an empty row, if not possible the party will be split as to not have a person in the party sitting alone firstly. i.e. 6 is 3 + 3 or 2 + 2 + 2 or 4 + 2 or 3 + 2 + 1 or 4 + 1 + 1 or 3 + 1 + 1 + 1 and so.
I have got it working for one person but seating two people is a bit more difficult. I am trying to get 15A,15B then 16E,16F then 16A,16B then 15E,15F then 16C 16D and 15C 15D.
This code only allocates passengers 15 A 15B then 15C 15D then 15E 15F
//seat allocation for two people
public bool[,] seatTwoPerson(bool[,] seatArray, int startCol, int endCol, int directionX, int startRow, int endRow, int directionY)
{ //loop through seatArray section determined by parameters
//for (int col = startCol; directionX < 0 ? col >= endCol : col < endCol; col += directionX)

Visual C++ :: Application Won't Start Once Installed On Other Computers
Sep 13, 2012I use standard libraries and INNO Setup, wich is a free setup file creator.
I succeeded in adding NetFrameWork 4.5 installer into the setup (it runs it after installation, and before running my software (named GOFINDER).
Now, i remember that this happened to me, but after three months of programming, mine used to start and still does. But I know it sometimes doesn't start, and I don't know why exactly.
I checked to make sure that I needed only FrameWork 4.5.
But maybe it is because of Visual C++ Runtime wich is not added upon setup.
I will try to check this after posting cause this has just popped up in my mind.
I'm asking you how can I Make sure, that distributing my software won't do that anymore.
Is it because my application file is not set on Run as Administrator?
Cause normally, it opens without this necesity, except as a Shell (well I have to check back but I think it does if I check on the run as administrator checkbox.
The problem is not really with InnoSetup, but I also would like to know how I can check that box automatically upon setup.
they say they have a documentation but I don't find it on my computer.
And... why would it start on my computer, and not on my beta-testers's one?
Visual C++ :: How To Start Process Without Loading Global Hook
Apr 21, 2014I had created a global hook by SetWindowsHookEx with WH_CALLWNDPROC. It is used to create a new toolbar button in specific window in the specific (3rd party) program (named HOOKEE.exe for example), and it works perfectly fine most of the time. Normally HOOKEE.exe is launched by double clicking the shortcut icon on desktop. But this program could be also launched in another way (provided by the provider of HOOKEE.exe), with this new way, HOOKEE.exe is by conhost.exe (on Windows 7), and then I could see (via ProcessMonitor) my hook is loaded by conhost.exe, but not the process HOOKEE.exe. In my understanding global hook would be loaded by whatever process, I have no idea on the exception, and what conhost.exe does to the HOOKEE.exe.
