C++ :: Vector String Return Length Error
Jul 10, 2013
The error is unclear but suggests Its received a bad pointer from another heap. It references dbgheap.c line 1322 and assertion failure
I have two string vector functions the first is called from the main function, the second is called from the first.
Their purpose is to receive a string of text and numbers in a semi-specific format, which the main body of the code reads from a text file, and delaminates the data as to return the first variable in the string as the variable name and the second as the variable value. Along the way it filters out a lot of the unwanted whitespace and punctuation.
E.g "{ VariableNameA 123 }" would be returned as "VariableNameA" And "123"
The code works perfectly for most of the lines in the text file but fails on one particular line where the first variable is 25 characters long. Basically it works for anything 22 characters or less. There are never more than 4 elements in the vector and each element is never intended to be longer than 25 characters.
It fails trying to return from the second split function to the first split function.
Is there a limit to the size of each vector element? I'm struggling to find a way round this without having to rewrite the whole thing.
vector<string> split(const string &s, char delim) {
vector<string> elems;
split(s, delim, elems);
return elems;
[Code] ....

PHP Code:
int processString(xxx)
{
//do something
return non-null terminated string length
}
To make the function work better we change its internals
PHP Code:
int processString(xxx)
{
//do something
return null terminated string length
}
This phenomenon can be observed by use of mutibyte to wide char conversions, string copy , concatenation functions of MS etc ....
Should I minus one in the return value of the second function to match both versions ?

I have a cpp app that reads in a number of files and writes revised output. The app doesn't seem to be able to open a file with a ' in the file name, such as,
N,N'-dimethylethylenediamine.mol
This is the function that opens the file :
Code:
// opens mol file, reads in rows to string vector and returns vector
vector<string> get_mol_file(string& filePath) {
vector<string> mol_file;
string new_mol_line;
// create an input stream and open the mol file
ifstream read_mol_input;
read_mol_input.open( filePath.c_str() );
[Code] ....
The path to the file is passed as a cpp string and the c version is used to open the file. Do I need to handle this as a special case? It is possible that there could be " as well, parenthesis, etc.

Ok my assignment has me doing vector math with some canned code provided for me by the instructor This is the header file to the class I'm working with and the .cpp file as far as I've gotten it.
#pragma once
#include "Scalar.h"
class Vector2D {
public:
Vector2D();
Vector2D( const Vector2D& ) ;// copy constructor
Vector2D( Scalar element[2] ) ; // initialize with an array
[Code] ....
I'm having trouble seeing which data members I'm multiplying together and what the initial state, continuing state, and after loop action I'm supposed to be using in the for loop.

When I use vectory.push_back(obj), if the length is out of reserved bound, it will deallocate the whole vector and reallocate a big piece of memory. From my understanding I think c++ only allocates 1 more place for the new obj. This is quite inefficient. Is there a way to set the step length whenever the size is out of bound? e.g. 50 more spaces.

I would like to understand a function on strings. Below is a code that I took from my teacher where the user inputs a string and prints out the length of the string.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
int main() {
char str[100];
int i = 0;
[Code] ....
Now I understand that it returns the count in "int" so my question is:
Let's say i declared
Code: int count = 0;
at the beginning of the code and then made
Code: count = strlen(str);
why wouldn't i have the same result? Is there a way to do it also?

I am writing a raytracer, and currently I'm working on creating a bounding volume hierarchy to accelerate the process. To do this, I am first creating a vector that holds each of the objects in the scene, and passing this vector to the constructor for my BVH.
Code:
//in header
BVH_Node* bvh;
//in main raytrace function
[Code] .....
I am testing a scene that has only 2 objects, and so it goes to the size == 2 check. The first time it hits makeLeaf(), I segfault. I've used both gdb and valgrind, and of course it's a memory mapping error. gdb's backtrace tells me that the length of the vector I've passed in is -805305610 and the capacity is -21, and that it is inside my makeLeaf() function that the error occurs.
Here's the function:
Code:
BVH_Node* BVH_Node::makeLeaf(GeomObj* v){
BVH_Node* node;
node->obj = v;
node->isObj = true;
return node;
}
The segfault happens at
Code: node->obj = v;
If I run my raytracer without a BVH, the objList works perfectly.

In this code, i declared a string constant and trying to print the length of string. I know that if i write char a1[7] or char a1[] than it runs and give aggregate output, but in this case it is giving double length of string.
Code:
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
#include<string.h>
void main()
}

I'm trying some codes about string arrays and taking array length. But i have some problems. I can't get length of string and can't send to a function.
------------------------
#include<iostream>
#include<cstring>
#include<string>
using namespace std;
void GetLength(string);
std::string Words[]={"table","gun","programming"};
int main()
{std::string InputWord;
[Code]...
And how can send Matrix to other function?

I can't find any method of retrieving the length of an array except for doing this:
string first[] = {"a","be","see"};
int length = sizeof(first)/sizeof(first[0])
This is a very unconventional way of getting the length of an array.
first->length() would return 1 because it returns the number of letters in the first element of the array (which actually makes no logical sense).
first.size() would return 1 aswell as it's practically the same thing.
Since getting the length of an array is such a fundamental feat, how come I can't find a decent method of doing it?
Is there no buildt in method for this? If there is not, why has it not been implemented in the std?

The input consists of one or more packets followed by a line containing only # that signals the end of the input. Each packet is on a line by itself, does not begin or end with a space, and contains from 1 to 255 characters.
it said 1 to 255 characters
i have to use getline(cin,str);
i tried str[255] but some error happen

I am stuck here.
printf(" Enter a line of Morse Code for decrypting");
scanf("%s",phr);
len=strlen(phr);
for(a=0;a<36;a++) {
if(strcmp(phr, morse[a])==0)
printf("%c", alpha[a]);
};printf(" ");
The output :
[output] Enter line to encrypt:
..... -.... --...
converting...
5 [/output]
It should read all code, including null. between coded letter one space, between coded word three spaces.
The output should be:
[output]
56 7 [/output]

I manage to split this str = "abc,def,123"
to s1 = "abc", s2 = "def", s3 = "123" with this piece of code using find and substr.
string str, s1, s2, s3;
getline(cin, str);
unsigned pos1 = str.find(",");
[Code] ....
But what should I do if the len of the string is unknown ?
For example, str = "abc,def,123,ghi,jkl,456,mno" and so on...

Ok here is the code
//assuming that all the directives have been included here
void ptrPointer(vector<string>* const p, int n);

vector.push_back("sword");
vector.push_back("knife");

Well...my question is how come the last statement or cout statement to be accurate won't work and display? Since we can do something like this below?
string text = "some text";
string *p = &text;
cout << p;
I passed the address of the vector to the function. And then display the address. It is a pretty common operation. But it just won't work. But then we do something simple similar to that of the vector. But it works.

What I'm trying to do is to assign the length of a string to an integer variable. This is what i tried, it did not work.
Code:
printf("Enter a string
");
fgets(test_pass, 30, stdin);
strcpy(x,(strlen(test_pass)));
printf("%d", x);
This was just a test, and it did not compile. How to do this?

I want to read a string of unknown length from stdin. I tried to follow the approach from this link. URL....My code is like this:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int n;
cin >> n;
cout << "The value of n is " << n << endl;
}
[code]......
What I have noticed is that if I take integer input from cin (cin >> n;) in the above code before getline, the control does not stop on getline to take str as input from the console. If I don't do (cin >> n) before getline then the control stops on getline and takes the string as input.What is the best way to read from console multiple strings of unknown length in combination with the integers?

I need to know if it is possible to show the maximum length that is defined a string. I explained it with a example
void charLong(char *a){
cout <<"a defined max long = "<<a-><FUNCTION>;
} int main() {
char str[40];
charLong(&str);
return 0;
}
That the result was : a defined max long = 40.
I know that exist strlen() but this show only the length that is used, I need the definition length. is it possible?

I have a question about finding the length of first sentence in an input string.
For example, let the input string be: dream in code. community learning
The length of first sentence is 13 (blanks are included). My question is how to create conditions for multiple punctuation signs (!,?)? If while loop goes like:
while((str[i]!='.')||(str[i]!='!')||(str[i]!='?'))
it gives me an error for infinite loop.
Code:
#include<stdio.h>
int main() {
char str[100];int i=0,br=0;
printf("enter a string:");
gets(str);

I am trying to pop the element on a vector off and return its value at the same time
vector.push_back();
Unfortunately that code only removes that element from the vector it does not return it
Is the only way to get the element and destroy it is to do this?
vector.back();
vector.pop_back();

My function has the following prototype:
std::vector<double> calculate_mag_response(double start_freq, double end_freq,
int N, std::vector<double> num, std::vector<double> den
The function should return a vector size N of magnitude responses in decibels of the transfer function defined by numerator and denominator vectors num and den. To adequately test, you should drive this with more transfer functions.
#include <vector>
#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <ifstream>

So I have a Binary Tree and I need to return a vector of integers (the nodes) of the heaviest path in the tree.
First, is it possible to do in C? Because I think a vector is an ADT in C++.

This is what I've written - [URL] ....
