C++ :: Setting Up Menu (With 4 Options) As A Function

Mar 4, 2014

I am having problems with setting up a menu as a function. The point of the menu is to display a list of 4 options and the user is supposed to choose one option and then the program will run. I am having trouble understanding how to display the menu once I run it because it is not working.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int menu(int ans); // function declaration for menu
void draw_triangle(int size, char ch); //function declaration for triangle
void draw_downtri( int size, char ch); // function declaration for upside-down triangle
void draw_diamond(int size, char ch); //function declaration for diamond

C++ :: Simple Program To Display Menu With Options

Mar 23, 2014

I decided to create a simple program to display a menu with options, while that is easy enough I had some difficulty when selecting an option that has options inside which also has an option again. While I had many issues in the past I'm finally finished with it and it works fine, but being new to programming and not knowing various other methods available.

Code:

C++ :: Menu Program Broken Down Into Series Of Calls To Function For Each Of Menu Items

Aug 19, 2013

I am trying to write a menu program that will be broken down into a series of calls to function for each of the menu items. Two of the menu items will be simple programs which I wrote.

I want two of the functions to run one of the two programs I am trying to include as items in the menu.

So far I am only familiar with variables, loops, if statements, and I just learned how to write functions.

The problem I am have is that I don't quite understand how to write a function that will run one of the two programs. Also I am having a hard time writing the program in away that would allow the user to select the menu items.

C++ ::  Setting A Function To A Variable?

Oct 29, 2014

I need to set a function to a variable of some kind. Then later in the program it needs to run the function that is set to the variable. The variable doesn't need to change after it is set to a function, it just needs to be able to be set to a function. So maybe I don't need a variable? What do I do? :3 Is this even possible? :o

Example:
if (PosRampYes == 0)
{
SomeVariableOrSomething = FirstFunction();
}
else
{
SomeVariableOrSomething = SecondFunction();
}
//later:
SomeVariableOrSomething; //so if PosRampYes is set to 0 then this line would run FirstFunction()

C++ :: Setting The Value Of A Pointer From Function

Feb 20, 2013

I declared a pointer in main with value 0, so I want to change its value so that it points to other variable from a function, I guess the function creates a copy of my pointer that's why whatever I do within function doesn't change the real direction of the pointer in main. I've been trying something like this:

#include <stdio.h>
void redirectionate(char *str, char *ptrCopy);
int main()

C++ :: Setting Function Return Type

May 28, 2012

I want my function to return the type mpz_t, but I'm not sure how?

I've tried: mpz_t MyFunction(mpz_t A, mpz_t B){}

But it didn't work, here is my code so far, I have bolded the parts of the code which are causing errors and added the errors in the comments:

Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <mpir.h>
using namespace std;
???? A(mpz_t m, mpz_t n){
mpz_t mmo; //used to store the value of m, minus one

[Code] .....

Is there a way around this?

C++ :: Setting Up Counters - Using Function / Passing Parameters

Jun 30, 2012

Need setting up counters for this program which should

Given a file of text, assume that
a "word" is 1 or more consecutive, non-whitespace characters
a "sentence" is a series of words terminated by either a period, exclamation point, or question mark

Design a C++ program (using functions/passing parameters) that will

-interactively prompt for and read the name of an input file
-interactively prompt for and read a string to search for
-open the input file (using an input filestream variable) and with one pass through the file
-count the number of "words" in the file
-for each word, make sure all letters, except the first, are lower case - leave the first character unchanged
-count the number of "sentences" in the file
-count the number of letters in the file (A-Z,a-z)
-count the number of consonants in the file (consonants are letters that are not vowels - the vowels are: a, e, i, o, u, A, E, I, O, and U)
-count the number of nonwhitespace characters in the file that are NOT letters
-count the number of times the search string is found in the file (must be an exact match) - search for matches AFTER upper case letters have been coverted to lower case

C :: Program Based On Menu System - Option To Go Back To A Previous Menu

Apr 7, 2014

I'm creating a program that is based on a menu system. Basically each menu is its own user-defined function. The problem is at each menu you can input 'b' to go to the previous menu. I just have it call the function of that menu.

However, do the functions need to complete themselves eventually? If I just keep calling functions will I just keep going further and further deeper into ever running functions?

If so how do I avoid this and yet keep the option to go back to a previous menu/function?

C :: Menu Driven Array Of Function Pointers Calculator

May 12, 2013

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.

Visual C++ :: How To Modify System Menu To Execute A Function

Feb 11, 2013

I wish to add the item 'Website' to an MFC Dialog app System Menu so that it can activate the following method:

Code:
void CMyDlg::OnWebpage()
{
ShellExecute( NULL, NULL, _T("[URL]..."), NULL, NULL, 0 );
}// OnWebpage()
I have tried this:

Code:

#define IDM_WEBSITE (WM_USER + 101)
//..
if (!strAboutMenu.IsEmpty())
{
pSysMenu->AppendMenu(MF_SEPARATOR);
pSysMenu->AppendMenu(MF_STRING, IDM_ABOUTBOX, strAboutMenu);
pSysMenu->AppendMenuW(MF_STRING, IDM_WEBSITE, _T("Website"));
}

[Code]...

The code compiles without error but and the 'website' item appears on the System Menu but it doesnt do anything.

I've inspected the following but don't really understand how it works and it seems to me there should be a simpler way to accomplish my end.

Visual C++ :: Member Function - Add Vertical Colour Text In Popup Menu

Jun 4, 2013

I was reading a c++ code written in embarcadero ide to add vertical colour text in popup menu.

While reading the code, I had seen following instructions.

private:

Code:
void __fastcall ExpandMenuItemWidth(TObject *Sender, TCanvas *ACanvas,int &Width, int &Height);

Code:
void __fastcall DrawNewItem(TObject *Sender, TCanvas *ACanvas, const TRect &ARect, bool Selected);

The above two methods used in the code like below:

Code:
PopupMenu1->Items->Items[i]->OnMeasureItem = ExpandMenuItemWidth;
PopupMenu1->Items->Items[i]->OnDrawItem = DrawNewItem;

What is happening when we are using member function without parameters like above?

Visual C++ :: Enable / Disable Menu Item 2 In OnUpdate Handler Of Menu Item 1?

I have two menu items. When item 1 is disabled, I want item 2 to be disabled as well. In the OnUpdate handler of menu item 1, I have tried to use "t_pMenu = pCmdUI->m_pMenu;", "t_pMenu = pCmdUI->m_pSubMenu;" and "t_pMenu = pCmdUI->m_pParentMenu;" but I always get NULL t_pMenu. How can I achieve this purpose?

C++ :: Multiple Sort Options?

Jan 9, 2013

I have the following private part of a class defined as follows:

private:
struct stats {
double ISIsum;
int authorCount;
bool operator<(const stats &a) const { return ISIsum > a.ISIsum;}
} *stats_;
bool compareSortByISI(const stats &lhs, const stats &rhs);
};

This enables me to sort this struct by calling:

std::sort(stats_, stats_ + authors_->getMaximumAuthors());

My question is, what if I want to have the option to sort by authorCount or ISIsum at run time. Is there any way to do this?

I can't see how I can override operator< twice and decide which one to call at use time.

C++ :: Additional Library Installation Options

Aug 5, 2013

I have been reading up, and it seems that all I need to do to finish up the installation of a library is to add in the search path for the library upon compile time.

Of course, I also read that directly copying the lib files can work too, but that may result in the over-writing of necessary files...

I read a more thorough document on mingw's linking processes and discovered that I could create a folder, install the library in that folder, and add the folder as a search path for mingw (so, basically, all i have to do is install all my libraries under that folder).

C++ :: Accessing WiFi Router Options?

Feb 3, 2014

Is there a way to access the router settings via c++? My friend wanted me to write something that would turn off wifi broadcasting on his router when pressing the button in the program. The only way I can think about is to connect to the router via .net framework and then use reverse engineering (on the router settings site) to find a way how to simulate change of option via POST or GET method.

C++ :: Adding New Options To String Class

Oct 8, 2014

I'm giving the replace option to my string:

void replace(string oldstring, string newstring) {
int stroldstringpos=b.find(oldstring);
b.replace(stroldstringpos,newstring.length(),newstring);
}

i have 1 error in these function that i'm confused. imagine the newstring size is more big than the oldstring, how can change the string, but only change the oldstring and add what left?
see these:

String test="hi hello world";
test.replace("hi","hello");

the result must be:

hello hello world

how can i change the replace function for it?
