C++ :: Creating A Variable Inside Function Arguments

May 15, 2013

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?

C++ :: Type Signature For Function Prototype

Mar 30, 2013

The function im having problems with takes an array where each element is an array of unsigned chars i.e. octals representing a bitmap of one of 95 ASCII code characters and searches through this two dimensional array looking for a match for a predetermined of array of unsigned chars i.e. the bitmap of a predetermined char. If we find the char the function outputs the index in the two-dimensional array where each elem. is an array of octals ELSE it return -1 i.e. when the char is not found.

I have 2 files, one .cpp, the other .h. There is a function named find_char. See INPUT and OUTPUT on line 48 in .cpp file.

The exception im getting is: font2.cpp:23:45:error: invalid conversion from unsigned char to unsigned char(*)[5]

The input type specified for my function prototype corresponding to find_char. If I put just unsigned char it doesn't fix the problem because it's an array parameter i.e. like a call by reference. I've lead myself to believe that the array variable contains a pointer to the first value in the array and so I've made function prototypes that work with a T* i.e. a pointer to type T. Making the function prototype argument unsigned char* i.e. a pointer to unsigned char simply gives me the exception: "invalid conversion from unsigned char to unsigned char*". When I have the argument be 'unsigned char' I get undefined reference to find_char(unsigned char). URL.....

C++ :: Switching Function Prototype To Another Type

Mar 29, 2014

This is my code:

#include<iostream>
#include<string>
using namespace std;
int bin2dec(const string binarystring); // Declaration of bin2dec prototype with one string parameter
int main() {
cout << "Enter Q to terminate program.

[Code] .....

Right now the code is in the form of a 'const string binarystring' and were supposed to be able to use 'const char binarystring[]' and for some reason whenever i try to switch it i run into problems when referencing the main function to the int bin2dec(...) function.

I wanted to know if theres a simple way to switch the prototype to an array type of function with [] without changing the entire code.

C++ :: Class Prototype - Generic Function

Aug 20, 2014

Let's first take the following class prototype:

#include <ctime>
#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>
#include <string>
#include <fstream>
class Debugger;
class Debugger {

[Code] ....

My question is regarding the GetCurrentDebugLevel function above. Ideally I would like to use just one function to get the current debug level of the class, the std::string form would be used to save the "debugging level" in a settings file and the enumerated version would for evaluation purposes throughout the program.

My question is if implementing function prototypes by return value the best way to go or should I do something else?

C++ ::  How To Initialize Function Prototype Of Array With Zero

Apr 23, 2014

We can initialize normal function prototype's parameters with zero like this:-

void output(float = 0.0, int = 0);

or

void output(int = 0, int = 0, double = 0.0);

But how do you do the same for a pointer array or simply an array?

Assume that second parameter has to be an array.

I have tried the following and it does not work:-

void output(float = 0.0, int = 0);
void output(float = 0.0, *int = 0);
void output(float = 0.0, int* = 0);
void output(float = 0.0, int[] = 0);
void output(float = 0.0, int []);

But if I skip the default declarations altogether, it works.

like:

void output(float, int []);

or

void output(float, int*);

how can I do it by explicitly writing zero, just like the first cases?

C :: Variably Modified Type - Function Prototype

Mar 24, 2013

Variably modified types are subject to certain restrictions , just as variable-length arrays are. The most important restriction is that the declaration of a variably modified type must be inside the body of a function or in a function prototype.

Code:
void f(int m , int n) {
int a[m][n] , (*p)[n];
p=a;
//....
}

What does it mean? That we can't declare such a pointer as a global variable?

C/C++ :: How To Make A Function Prototype That Uses Variables By Reference

Dec 4, 2014

How to how to make a function prototype that uses variables by reference. I'm making a decision based game where two running totals of two variables (ending and morality from decisions made) will decide the game outcome. I only have a few modules put in so far and most of the "story" parts cut down here to save space. I'm also getting an error saying there is more than one instance of overloaded function for the "whatToDo" module.

// ZombieGame.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application.
//
#include <stdlib.h> /* srand, rand */
#include <time.h> /* time */
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
//These are function prototypes to declare the functions being used
void WakeyWakey();
void TwentyMinsLater(int);

Visual C++ :: How To Call Sleep Function Prototype

Dec 23, 2012

I have two problems with the code below:

1. I cannot find a header file to #include that has the sleep function prototype.

2. When I add my own sleep function prototype, I get an unresolved external reference error (for _sleep, not sleep).

What must I #include to get the sleep function prototype? What lib must I include in the linker configuration to resolve the external reference? (I suspect that if I #include the correct header file, the second question might become moot.)

The "man page" at [URL] .... says the header file is <WinBase.h>. But #include'g only <WinBase.h> results in compilation errors.

A response marked "answer" at [URL] ..... says <windows.h> [sic]. #Include'g only <Windows.h> does eliminate the compilation errors.

But apparently that does not bring in the sleep function prototype. Neither does also subsequently #include'g <WinBase.h>. (Which seems to be #include'd by <Windows.h> anyway.)

But even with my own function prototype shown below, I get an unresolved external reference for _sleep. Is that a symptom of my problem: my sleep reference is changed to _sleep? If so, how can avoid that?

According to "man page" (see link above), the external should be resolve in kernel32.lib. And kernel32.lib does appear in the "Additional Dependencies" list under Configuration Properties Linker Input.

Since I am not using C++ features, I tried setting "Compile as C" under Configuration Properties C/C++ Advanced, to no avail.

My code....

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <Windows.h>
void sleep(DWORD msec); // added later
int _tmain(int argc, char* argv[])

C++ :: Write Prototype Of A Member Function To Overload Insertion Operator

Apr 10, 2014

Consider the class specification below. Write the prototype (i.e. header) of a member function to overload the insertion operator (i.e. <<). The << operator is to output the data members of an instance of class StudentTestScores into an output stream. Your definition should allow for chaining of output operations (e.g. cout << x << y; where x and y are of type StduentTestScires).

#include <string>
using namespace std;
class StudentTestScores{
private:
string studentName;
float *testScores; // used to point to an array of test scores
int numTestScores; // number of test scores

C++ :: Functions With Variable Number Of Arguments

Apr 21, 2014

Write a function write with variable number of arguments that takes a string first argument followed by any number of arguments of type double and prints on the screen a string formatted by the rules described below. The first argument may contain formats in curly braces of the form {index[:specifier]}, where the square brackets show optional parts (this is :specifier may be missing), and index is the sequence number of an argument of type double (starting from sequence number 0).

Rules for formatting: In the printed string the curly brackets and their content will be replaced by the argument with the given index, formatted according to the given format specifier. If the format specifier is missing, the argument will be printed with its default format. For example:

write("The number {0} is greater than {1}.", 5, -3);
will print
The number 5 is greater than -3.

write("There are no format specifiers here.");
will print
There are no format specifiers here.

The format specifiers and their meanings are listed in the following table

Specifier MeaningFormat Output for 1.62 Output for 2.0
none default {0}1.62 2
ccurrency{0:c}$1.62 $2.00
escientific{0:e}1.620000e+000 2.000000e+000
ffixed point{0:f}1.620000 2.000000
iround to int{0:i}2 2

Limitations: You may limit the maximum number of arguments your function can process to a certain value, for example 10.

Suggested extensions:
-Add an optional alignment specification in the format , e.g., make the format of the form {index[,alignment][:specifier]}, where alignment is an integer specifying the width of the field in which the corresponding argument will be printed. If alignment is positive, align to the right, if it is negative, align to the left.
-Accept an optional integer after the specifier letter, specifying the required precision in the output. For example, {0:f2} will print the number 1.6234 as 1.62, but {0:f5} will print it as 1.62340.

so in declaring a display function prototype only that displays a student test scores in the format (student name tab number of scores tab test scores )

is this right?

#ifndef STUDENTTESTSCORES_H
#define STUDENTTESTSCORES_H
#include <string>
using namespace std;
class StudentTestScores{

C :: Reading And Accepting Full Name

I am having trouble in reading my full name in just a single variable and some kind of authentication. this is my code by the way.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
char NAME_MINE1[40];

void clrscr();
}

[code]....

if i enter my full name i will be able to go on to the next statement/command but when i put on some name (which is not mine) i will automatically get an error and exit the program.If i type "Qwerty You Tube" EXACTLY and not just the first string before the whitespace i will be able to proceed but when i enter "Qwerty Tube You" or "Qazse Qop Queen" i will get an error and the program will exit.

C++ :: Accepting Multiple Clients?

Apr 14, 2013

I'm still having troubles connecting multiple clients to my server.To break down what I have going:I have a server that is supposed to accept multiple clients.. Currently, It works with one person.While the server is running, One person is allowed to play the game (While connected to the server). If the server is down, the player cannot play (This shows that the server and client responde and work).

However, While the server is running and the client joins, the first player is allowed to play. Everyone else's window goes black and says "Not Responding" (Like any other game in which isn't working).While these players are in "Not Responding", It still says the client has connected onto the server (But they're not able to play?).My client code is working perfectly, But i'm having troubles accepting multiple clients onto my server.

#include <iostream>
#include <winsock2.h>
#include <vector>
#include <process.h>
#include "Included/pthread.h"
//Some things i'm using or will be using in the future

[code]......

I had set notes by things to tell what they do!

Visual C++ :: Winsock - Accepting Multiple Clients On A Server?

Jun 16, 2013

My problem is that I've created a Client and Server program in which they communicate. The Client is an SDL Application that allows you to play as a movable character IF YOU ARE CONNECTED TO THE SERVER. If not, You're unable to play. THIS WORKS!

However, Only one client is able to play on my server?? Anyone elses' window freezes and they are not allowed to play (As if not connected to the server). Here is my server code.

Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <winsock2.h>
#include <vector>
#include <process.h>
#include "Included/pthread.h"
#define MAX_THREADS 5
bool gamerunning = true;

[Code] ....

I'm having troubles allowing more than one client to play on the server.
