I have a pointer to a vector of objects, each object has an array and a couple of strings. how to access the data in the objects via the pointer.
Best tree::chooseSplit(vector <pgm> *ptr)
{
Best splits;
cout<<ptr[1].filePath; //not working!!!
}
filepath is a string in the pgm object. i also need to be able to access elements in an array that also exists in pgm.
I'm currently trying to access a variable contained within a base object from another completely different object and I continually get error messages. I'll attempt to put up the important code since it's contained within fairly large classes. From the Base .cpp file. ObjectPosition:
void ObjectPosition::init(float x,float y, float speed, int boundx, int boundy, float hit, int lives, bool live) {
ObjectPosition::x = x;
ObjectPosition::y = y;
ObjectPosition::speed = speed;
ObjectPosition::boundx = boundx;
ObjectPosition::boundy = boundy;
ObjectPosition::hit = hit;
ObjectPosition::lives = lives;
ObjectPosition::live = live;
}
This is the initialization function for the BaseObject. All objects are inheriting these variables which are Protected within the ObjectPosition class.Then they are initialized within the Pig class thus wise:
void Pig::binit(float sx,float sy, ALLEGRO_BITMAP *simage) {
//Sets all ObjectPosition Variables
ObjectPosition::init(800,900,10,80,40,40,10,true);
smaxFrame = 4;
scurFrame = 0;
[code]...
I tried to initialize the boundx through the pig via pinitx but I get errors and I can't access through the pig to the object position to the boundx.
I am working on a video game that is based on a tutorial I found online and I ran into an issue associated with accessing an object's method inside another class object's function without making the object global which seems bad.
Here is basically how the tutorial set things up in the game: The game has a base class called GameObject then there are other child classes that inherit from this class. The GameObject class has all the basic information an object would have that needs rendered on the screen (x/y position, size of bitmap, bitmap, whether or not it is collidable, etc).
One of the child classes SpaceShip, which is the player so it has attributes and methods associated with managing # of lives and points scored.
There are other child classes of GameObjects in the game that need to take life and add points from the SpaceShip object if they collide with the spaceship or other objects.
In the collision handling routine I basically call a function "void Collided(int objectID)" when a game object collides with another. Within the Collided() routine, there is logic that executes code or other functions based on the objectID it collided with. Some of the collisions require taking life from the spaceship or adding points. The way this was accomplished in the tutorial was with function pointers (see Bullet class constructor and collided method for example). Is this really the best way to handle this sort of thing? It seems like there has to be a simpler way than to keep referencing function pointers in any new class I want to add to the game. I realized this when I went to add a method for the spaceship to fire bullets rather than inside my game class.

We are coding a Blackjack/21 game. I have a Deck.cpp class, Deck.h, Play.cpp (holds Main), and Card.h (holds card struct). I also have a Hand class/header, but I'm not using it yet. This is what is required per instructor.I am having issues accessing the functions that are in my Deck class. I have tried a few other means to access the class's function, but I've already gotten rid of those. These three are my latest attempts with the specific errors in the comment on the line the error was happening.

I have the following map: myMap<string,vector<int>>. I now want to look through my map to see if a key exists and if it does, retrieve one of the int values from within that vector. What would be the best way to do this? Right now I have the following:
What would be the best way to look for a key and get one of the int values from its vector value? Right now I'm doing something like this:
[code]
map<string,vector<unsigned int>>::iterator it;
it = wordMap.find(someWord);
if(it == wordMap.end){

Is there a better way to do this?
How I can use class functions in a vector. I have 2 classes:
Gamemode class
bullets class
Inside the Gamemode class I declared: vector<bullets> Bullet and bullets * b.
If the user presses the shoot button a new bullets class will be added to the Bullet vector:
b = new bullets;
Bullet.push_back(b)
Bow I'd like to check all objects in the Bullet vector for the collision() function inside the bullets class.
I already set up a for loop which counts from 0 to the end of the vector:
for( int i=0;i<Bullet.size;i++)
{
}
My idea was to do something like:
if(Bullet[i].collision()) then erase Bullet[i]
But that doesn't work...
so lets assume i have a nested vector in a set or vice versa o in a more general form a container in a container example...
Code:
std::set<vector<int> > my_tuple;
How do i access individual elements of lets say the first vector in the set! Or the last element in the 3rd vector?
Code:
int arr[10];
int* p = arr;
int (*p2)[10] = &arr;
So, pointer p is a pointer to an array, I can use it to access elements of arr as in *(p+5).
Pointer p2 is a pointer to an array of ten integers. What is it for, how can I use it to access elements of arr?
I have a vector that I would like to access and work with from multiple threads. I have created an example below to illustrate the functionality that I would like to accomplish.
The goals are to be (1) high speed, (2) thread safe, and (3) *if possible* continue to use vectors as my larger project uses vectors all over the place and as such I would like to maintain that.
However, if I need to switch from vectors to something else then I am open to that as well.
The following example below compiles but crashes rather quickly because it is not thread safe.
How I can fix the example below which I can then apply to my larger project?
#include <string>
#include <vector>
#include <ctime>
#include <thread>
#include <iostream>
#include <random>
#include <atomic>
#include <algorithm>
enum EmployeeType {

I have a vector (structures) in a struct (instances). I make a declaration of this struct called instance. The vector is a 3-layer vector of pointers, like so:
vector < vector < vector<scene::IAnimatedMeshSceneNode*> > > structures; (The type is from Irrlicht 3D). I have 3 nested "for" loops which looks similar to the following:
for (int a = 0; a < instance.structures.size(); a++) { /*note:vector size previously set*/
for (int b = 0; b < instance.structures[a].size(); b++){
for (int c = 0; c < instance.structures[a][b].size(); c++) {
if (1) { //checking value of variable not included in snippet
(instance.structures)[a][b][c] = smgr->addAnimatedMeshSceneNode(fl);
(instance.structures)[a][b][c]->setPosition(renderPos);
}
}
}
}
The problem is in these two lines, I think:
(instance.structures)[a][b][c] = smgr->addAnimatedMeshSceneNode(fl);
(instance.structures)[a][b][c]->setPosition(renderPos);
These are currently referencing the pointers, it seems. The program compiles but crashes at this point. I need them to reference the values of the pointers. Problem is, I don't know where to put the dereference operator (*). Where should it go?
"
#include <stdio.h>
struct datastructure {
char character;
};
void function(struct datastructure** ptr);
[Code] ....
These codes give these errors:
error: request for member 'character' in '* ptr', which is of non-class type 'datastructure*'
error: request for member 'character' in '* ptr', which is of non-class type 'datastructure*'
These errors are related to
"
*ptr->character='a';
printf("Ptr: %c",*ptr->character);
"
I want to access "character" data inside the structure "trial" by a pointer to pointer "ptr" inside function "function",but I couldn't find a way to do this.
I am writing a C program to access a string into an array from a pointer array in Visual Studio 2010. Program is given below:-
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
void main() {
char data_a[6],data_b[6]="ABcde",*ptr;
ptr=&data_b[0];
data_a[0]=*ptr;
printf("%s",a);
}
I am getting some junk character first and then my actual data on console window. I want to where I am getting wrong and how to resolve it.
i had a structure as follows:
struct a{
int x;
struct b{
int y;
b *next;
}b;
};
when i try to access as follows:
struct a *a;
a->b=a->b->next;
i got the following error: base operand of ‘->’ has non-pointer type
i have this vector:
#ifndef new_thing_Inventory_h
#define new_thing_Inventory_h
#include <vector>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
class Inventory {
[code]....
so i know i need to use .push_back or .pop_back, but the program im using dosn't even recognize that inventory is a created vector.
I'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?
I've been really busy but managed to get in enough down time to learn somewhat decent info about vectors. Anyways originally my program created a dynamic array of pointers to class objects and I came across a few problems because of this. Apparently an array of pointers is now outta of the question and I will now be switching to a vector of objects instead.
Why I want a list of objects instead of pointers this little comment should clear things up.
tiles[i]->show() dereferences tiles[i] (i.e. accesses whatever it points at) before calling the show() method.
That is undefined behaviour. Once undefined behaviour occurs, there is no recovery, and there is nothing the show() method (or any subsequently called function for that matter) can do to recover (short of invoking their own forms of undefined behaviour - compiler specific hacks, etc).
Even if the show() method initialises the object correctly, it cannot change the pointer tiles[i] which is in a different scope (within main()).
What I'm trying to do is create a vector of already intialized objects so that I can use a conditional statement of every single element to properly layer my games art resources. This should also automatically fix a mild unrelated collision dectection problem too but first thing first layering.
here's the problem. I want to delete the objects within a vector, although I'm not sure whether I should clear the vector afterwards. Is it really necessary?
Code:
for (i = 0; i < allSales.size(); i++)
delete allSales[i];
allSales.clear(); //Is this step necessary?
I have two classes, Parent and Child, where Parent contains a vector that is used to store instances of Child. When I create an instance of Parent, three instances of Child are also created in Parent's constructor and stored in the vector. I understand that push_back() creates a shallow copy of each Child instance and that Child's destructor is called each time the loop (inside Parent's constructor) iterates. The problem is that because Child's destructor is called each time the local variable child goes out of scope, the memory previously allocated in Child's constructor is destroyed and when Child's destructor is called again later on in the program to get rid of the copy stored in vector, the program crashes. I can fix this by overriding the default copy function or by storing pointers to objects instead of copies of objects. I don't really need to use vectors in this case since I always have three children in one parent but I'm doing this as a learning exercise and would prefer to use vectors.
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
class Child {
public:
Child() {
std::cout << "child constructor called" << std::endl;

I'm working on a code for ascertaining the minimum penalty of an assignment problem. The basic complication of my code is this: I have a vector of objects of a custom struct. The struct has a member, which is an integer. I need to keep the vector sorted according to that member, even when objects are added to or deleted from the vector. To illustrate the problem, I'll give an example.
Code:
typedef struct examplestruct{int i;
char c;
...} es;
int function(void)
{vector<es> ObjectTable;
//insert an object so that the vector remains sorted according to i
insertobject( newobject, &ObjectTable);
//deleting the top element of the vector
deleteobject(&ObjectTable);
return 0;}
I have tried to do it using bubblesort. But it's too slow. How to make a heap out of it.
The detailed premises of the problem is this: There are a number of jobs, and with each job a completion time and a cost coefficient. We are to ascertain the optimal sequence of jobs for which the penalty is minimum. Now, suppose we are given jobs A, B, C, D and E. We find out the lower bound of penalties for all the jobs.
Suppose we find B has the lowest penalty. Then we find out the lower bound of penalties for BA, BC, BD and BE. We continue this until we have the best value and a complete sequence. The way I have implemented this in a code: I have created two structs. One is Job, with the completion time and cost coefficient as members. The other is Node. Nodes have a Job Array and a Penalty as members. Now, we have a vector of Nodes which we need to keep sorted according to the penalty. We need to insert new Nodes and delete the expanded Nodes.
I have included my code. The pushInTable function inserts the new Nodes in a sorted vector. But it slows down remarkably when we give more than 20 jobs as input.
For a beginners C++ lab, I have a base class Employee and two derived classes HourlyEmployee and SalaryEmployee. In main, I have a vector defined as vector <Employee *> VEmp; It's then passed to a function to get the input, which works fine. But what I'm struggling with is another function with the header "printList(const vector <Employee *> & Ve)". It's supposed to loop through the vector and call the appropriate printPay function, which is a seperate print function inside each derived class. How do I loop through the vector and print it out? I was trying to do a for loop and something like "Ve[i].printPay();", but that doesn't work. So how would I do it?
Here's some snippets of the relevant code.
class Employee {
....
virtual void printPay() = 0;
};

I'm working on collision detection for a game in SFML. I successfully designed a Spatial Partition grid to speed up the collision test, in the following of this tutorial: [URL] ....
But now I have an issue with one aspect of it: Going through a vector of objects and testing all the OTHER objects in the vector against said object. The author puts it into psueudocode here:
For each tick of the clock
For every object in the game
Get all the other objects in the same grid square
For each other object in the same grid square
I have trouble with the last line, because in iterating through a vector I am not sure how to skip over the current object. Here is my own code (a couple of sysntax errors but this is a c++ question not an SFML question):
//for every moveable object
for(int i = 0; i < rects_.size(); i++){
std::vector<sf::RectangleShape> posibleObjects_; //this will be a vector of WorldObjects in a real game
//for every object in that object's gridsquare
for(int j = 0; j < rects_.size(); j++){
if(rects_[i].intersects(rects_[j])){
//collision
} } }
The problem is, a collision will always be reported because somewhere in the vector the object will eventually check against itself which is always a true collision. What is the correct way to do this?
I have a vector of Car* objects - vector<Car*> cars
Each object in the vector has an integer attribute called passengers, which can be returned using the function getPassengers().

Im creating a program for a race. The Race class has a vector of results and each element of that vector is a pointer to a result. The Result class has a Time and a pointer to a Participant. So in each race there are various results and it is a result for each participant.The Time is a class that has hours, minutes and seconds. How can I sort the vector of results from the result of the participant with the fastest time to the result of the participant with the slowest time?My code is like this:

class Time {
unsigned int hours;
unsigned int minutes;
unsigned int seconds;
