C++ :: Static Type Dispatch With Structs Inside Classes?

Oct 15, 2013

I wanted to ask if it is somehow possible to do:

Code:
class RaspberryPi: public Singleton<RaspberryPi> {
private:
static const DeviceInfo GPS;
template<typename Register_t>
auto ReadGPS(Register_t& Register) -> void

[Code] ....

There are two limitations I am facing:

First, it seems that anything that is part of a struct cannot be a compile-time expression. It's a nice way to group information, so it would be nice to have.

Secondly, it seems that all compile-time expressions cannot be inside a class (at least according to VC++), which means I have to move them to global level, but while it can be done, I don't really want to do it, because it's a platform detail.

In this case, static type dispatch would be nice to have because I have a function

Code:
template<typename Register_t>
auto ReadBus(Platforms::DeviceInfo Device, Register_t& Register) -> void {
switch (Device.Bus)

[Code] .....

There are two types of registers. With runtime dispatch, I get disgusting errors such as "could not deduce template arguments, blah blah" if some object doesn't have the required interface (i.e., don't have overloads for both register types). So the workaround would be to add two overloads and use something like asserts to stop invalid code from running, but it would be so nice to only allow correct code to compile and not get scary error messages.

C++ :: Accessing Non-static Members Inside Static Member Functions

Sep 11, 2013

What are the workarounds for accessing the non-static member variables of some class(Say A) inside static member functions of another class(Say B)? I am coding in c++. Class A is derived with public properties of class B. Any pointers?

C# :: Static Method Inside Non-static Class

Aug 22, 2014

Have following code:

class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{

[Code]....

My question according to what i just wrote:

1. Is that mean that Do() is only available for use by Dog itself because Dog is 'oryginal' Dog, and if i create new dogs - instances of oryginal Dog (dog1, dog2 ...) they cant access because Do is only available fo 'oryginal' one? Is that correct thinking?

2. If i would want to have something common (e.g value) for all dogs is that good way to create static field/method for Dog instead of non-static once then all instances of Dog would access Dog static member to get/change it? Just stupid example: static method GetAmountOfLegs() which return 4 Then all instances can take/call that value from Dog. Is that correct thinking?

C++ :: Nested Classes And Structs

Mar 12, 2014

I'm working on a project involving nested classes and structs like this:

Code: class A {
public:class B {
public:f()
{A::C* iCanDoThis; //no errors.
iCanAlsoDoThis->root->.... //this also works fine.}private:A::C* iCannotDoThis //this is what I would like to do.
Has errors
A* iCanAlsoDoThis;};private:struct C
{..data..};

C* root;};

Is it possible make a pointer to struct C a private member of class B?

C++ :: When To Use Static Classes

May 2, 2013

I am just wondering what the best practice is for when to use static classes (by static class, I mean a class which has only static attributes and functions).

If you are creating more than one independent object of a particular class, then obviously this should not be static because each object will be the same. But what about the case when you know that you will only ever need one instance of a class? On its own, does this mean that you should create it as a static class?

Personally, I use static class when I want its member attributes and functions to be available globally, which I think is fine. However, I am not sure about the case when I know that only one object will be created - should this be a static class or not?

C++ :: Static Variables In Classes

Mar 1, 2013

If I have a static variable in a class e.g. a pointer to another class like this: (B is another class)

class A {
public:
static B* cB;
};

Then I set that variable and create multiple instances of class A like this:

A::cB = new B;
As = new A[Number];

Then will the value of cB be the same across all instances?

I cannot pass the class pointer in the constructor as I need to create an array of instances. I tried this method but I get linker error.... unresolved external.

C++ :: Static Classes Vs Namespaces?

Jan 9, 2014

so i was trying to find out how to do unbuffered input in linux and came across this class: [URL] . i didnt like how i had to create a new instance of it each time i wanted to use it, so i made the functions static and renamed the class to Buffer. i could then call it like this: Buffer::On(); Buffer::Off();. My question is, when doing something like that where the class consists of two functions that can exist indepently of another, which is better: a class like what i did or wrapping it in a namespace?

C++ :: Static Variable Inside A Member Function

Jul 20, 2013

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?

C++ :: Defining Classes And Using Them Inside Void Main Function

May 18, 2013

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).

C++ :: Accessing Classes Member Variables Nested Inside Another Class

Feb 22, 2013

I have two classes, a Package class and a Person class. The Package class has two Person objects has member variables, a Sender and a Receiver. While overloading the << operator for the Package class so that it will make an output label from everything in the Package class. Here is my code...

class Package{
public:
Person Sender;
Person Reciever;
int weight;
double cost;
friend ostream &operator<<(ostream &out, Package &pack);

[Code] .....

So my problem is on that last output line, I am unable to call Sender.getName()... etc. Is there a proper syntax so that I can access the members of the Person class while overloading the << operator for the Package class?

C++ :: Declare Template Type Object Inside Template Type Class Definition

Oct 12, 2013

Let me put it into the code snippet:

/**
This class build the singleton design pattern.
Here you have full control over construction and deconstruction of the object.
*/
template<class T>
class Singleton

[Code]....

I am getting error at the assertion points when i call to the class as follows:

osgOpenCL::Context *cxt = osgOpenCL::Singleton<osgOpenCL::Context>::getPtr();

I tried commenting assertion statements and then the debugger just exits at the point where getPtr() is called.

C++ :: Outputting Data From File Into Structs And Arrays Of Structs

Apr 15, 2013

I am having a lot of trouble being able to get data from a file and input it into given structs and arrays of structs and then outputting the file. We are given a file that contains 96 lines and looks like this:

Arzin, Neil
2.3 6.0 5.0 6.7 7.8 5.6 8.9 7.6
Babbage, Charles
2.3 5.6 6.5 7.6 8.7 7.8 5.4 4.5

This file continues for 24 different people and then repeats with different scores (the second line).
The first number, in this case is 2.3 for both people is a difficulty rating. The next 6 numbers are scores.

We are given this data in order to set up our structs and arrays and my code:

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <string>
#include <cmath>
using namespace std;
int main () {
ifstream inFile;
inFile.open("C://diveData.txt);

C++ :: Initializing Static Map Of Variable Type Abstract Class?

Dec 3, 2014

A have two classes, one inheriting the other, and the parent class being abstract (I plan on adding more child classes in the future). For reasons I won't bother mentioning, I'm making use of an STL container as a way for me to access all of the child objects in the heap. I've done so by making use of a map, with key type int and value type being a pointer to the parent class:

//PARENT.H
class Parent {
protected:
static int n;
static std::map<int, Parent*> map;
public:
virtual void pureVirtual() = 0;

[code]....

The Problem:In line 5 of Parent.cpp, initializing the value of the element to new Child won't work, as according to the compiler, the Child class hasn't been declared yet, and including Child.h into the Parent.h only opens an even bigger can of worms.I also can't initialize it as new Parent, seeing as the parent class is an abstract one.

The Question:Is there a way I can initialize the static map properly. Making the Parent class abstract is not an option.

C++ :: Create A Class Type Structure Using Struct Instead Of Classes

I am trying to create a class type structure using struct instead of classes.

Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <stdlib.h>
using namespace std;
struct myclass {

Guess what I am asking is using the pointer in the first code section better or is there another way'. I don't know about making the second code work.

C++ ::  Storing Static Class Members Of Dynamic Variable Type In DLL

Oct 15, 2013

How I can implement it.

Tickable.h

#include <list>
#ifdef TICKABLE_EXPORTS //Automatically defined by MSVS
#define DLL __declspec(dllexport)
#else
#define DLL __declspec(dllimport)
#pragma comment(lib, "Tickable.lib")
#endif

class DLL Tickable{

[Code] ....

error LNK2001:
unresolved external symbol "private: static class std::list<class Tickable*,SKIPPED BITS> Tickable::subs" HUGE_SYMBOL_LIST
PATHTickable.obj

I know with such a tiny and insignificant class the dll export seems pointless but this class is actually intended to be a .lib ONLY. But it is derived from by .dll style classes, and through inheritance this error is the exact same as what appears in the derived class, I just imagine that the cut down version would be easier to work with.

Is it possible to hold either a static variable in a dll which is of a dynamic type, OR would it be possible to reference an external variable which is static throughout the instances and this variable can be chucked away in a namespace of mine somewhere?

I suppose my only other option (if this is possible) would be to define a maximum instance number and create a standard array of pointers but this could both waste so much memory when not in use and cause problems if I need more memory.

C++ :: Make Class Created Static Inside Another Class?

Dec 17, 2013

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.

C++ :: Nested Classes - How Members Be Accessed Through Object Of Enclosing Class Type

May 18, 2013

"A nested class has free access to all the static members of the enclosing class. All the instance members can be accessed through an object of the enclosing class type, or a pointer or reference to an object."

How can the members be accessed through an object of the enclosing class type? I understand the pointer and reference part because for them you dont need the full definition, but for creating a object you do?

Also it has free access to all static members because the nested class is part of the enclosed class and with static it exists in everything inside the enclosing class? Right or am I missing something?

C++ :: Virtual Can Only Exist In Non-static Member Function - Field Has Incomplete Type Void

Dec 5, 2014

I'm writing a class "Property" for a program that manages different types of properties. This is my .h for y base class. I was trying to write a virtual void function to convert different children classes to strings that can be displayed, but Xcode is freaking out.

I had it as:

virtual void toString()= 0;

and it gave me an error message: "Virtual can only exist in non-static member functions" and "field has incomplete type 'void'"

I changed it to:

virtual string toString() = 0;

and the error message didn't change.

Is this an issue with Xcode or did I do something wrong? Even after changing it to string it told me that it "has incomplete type 'void'"....

C++ :: Do Static Functions Have Access To Non Static Data Members Of A Class

Apr 17, 2013

From my book:

"A static function might have this prototype:

static void Afunction(int n);

A static function can be called in relation to a particular object by a statement such as the following:

aBox.Afunction(10);

The function has no access to the non-static members of aBox. The same function could also be called without reference to an object. In this case, the statement would be:

CBox::Afunction(10);

where CBox is the class name. Using the class name and the scope resolution operator tells the compiler to which class Afunction() belongs."

Why exactly cant Afunction access non-static members?
