C++ :: Passing A Function Parameter By Reference?

Sep 25, 2012

I created the following code to pass the the variable 'inputVoltage' by reference to the function 'input'. It certainly works when I run the program, but I dont think it is a standard way of doing it, i.e. the use of '*' and '&' is not according to convention ? Or perhaps the way did it is acceptable ?

int input (double *inputVoltage);
int main ( {
double inputVoltage;
input(&inputVoltage);

C++ :: Template Function Parameter Passing By Reference Instead Of Copy / Pointer

Sep 19, 2014

Basically I'm trying to pass an object as a reference to the template function, rather than a copy as it's seeing. I'm needing to do this without editing Obj::Call to accommodate a reference as its first parameter, as it'd break other calls.

You'll notice in the following code the object will be destroyed upon passing, while the object defined is still in-scope due to the infinite end loop.

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
class Obj {
public:
string name;
Obj(string name): name(name) {cout << "create " << this << endl;}

[code]....

In the past I tried ref(), which appeared to stop this happening, however it created a blank copy of the object instead.

C# :: Reference Type When Passing Struct To Parameter?

Jan 24, 2015

Does putting a ref when passing a struct to a parameter work? Say i have this code

struct struct1 {
public int i;
public void show() {
Console.WriteLine(i);

[Code] ....

The output doesn't change. The result is

0
100
500

C++ :: Pass By Reference To A Template Function Through Parameter Only

Sep 19, 2014

Due to the nature of this requirement, I've made a very minimal example, which would adequately solve my issue, without resorting to use of pointers or copy constructors.

C++ :: How To Create A Function That Takes A File Object As A Reference Parameter

Feb 21, 2013

I have a school project in which need to create a function that takes a File Object as a Reference Parameter. Supposedly, it should allow me to read the first piece of data from others separated by a space from a file. The later be able to continue reading from the next piece of data.

I know how to set things up to read from the data file, such as using

Code:

#include <iostream> , and

Code:

ifstream inputFileName;
inputFile.open ("nameOfFile");

I also understand how to pass a variable by reference to a function. But I simply cannot put the two items together!

I tried using

Code:

void getFileInput (ifstream &); //parameter
getFileInput ("nameOfFile") // call
void getFileInput (ifstream &dataFileName)

In the function I used

Code:

ifstream inputFile;
inputFile.open (dataFileName);

I'm just not getting an understanding of this concept!

C :: Passing Array As A Parameter To Function

C++ :: Passing Array Into Function As Parameter

May 2, 2013

Write a program that inputs 10 integers from the console into an array, and removes the duplicate array elements and prints the array. By removing, I mean that you should make it appear as if the elements hadn't been there. You may assume that all the integers are between 0 and 100, Write at least 1 function in addition to the main function, and pass an array into that function as a parameter. e.g.

Please enter your 10 numbers: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 The array contains: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

Please enter your 10 numbers: 1 1 3 3 3 6 7 8 9 9 The array contains: 1 3 6 7 8 9

Please enter your 10 numbers: 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 The array contains: 1

The bolded area is where I'm having trouble. How I can go about doing this, passing an array into the function as a parameter?

Here is my code:

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main () {
const int MAX = 10;
int a[MAX] = {0};
int i;

[Code]...

C++ :: Passing A Function As Template Parameter

Dec 26, 2013

Pseudocode:
template<typename T /*, some parameter for member_function */>
class Foo {
public:
void someFunction() {
T t;
t.member_fuction(...);
} }

I'm trying to make the call to T::member_function a templated value because member_function might vary by name in my scenario. Since std::mem_fn isn't a 'type', i can't do something like Foo<std::string, std::mem_fn(&std::string::clear)> foo;

I also want to take into account that member_function might have more than one parameter. That is, the first parameter will always be something known but there might be other defaulted parameters.

The only thing I can think of is to make a proxy structure, something like this:

template<typename T, T> struct proxy;
template<typename T, typename R, typename... Args, R (T::*member_function)(Args...)>
struct proxy<R (T::*)(Args...), member_function> {
R operator()(T &obj, Args.. args) {
return (obj.*member_function)(std::forward<Args>(args)...);
} }

Which would then allow me to do (for example) this:

Foo<std::string, proxy<void(std::string::*)(), &std::string::clear> >

when Foo is implemented like this:

template<typename T, typename member_function>
class Foo {
public:
void someFunction() {
T t;
member_function()(t);
} };

That implementation works for me.

C++ :: Passing Extra Parameter To Operator Function?

Jul 29, 2013

I have a class and I would like to be able to pass an extra parameter to the function that is executed.

BigInt operator / (BigInt N,BigInt D) {

}

is what I have now. but I would like to do something like this. so the default value for a is 10. and if the user does something like N/D (12) Then the value of a is 12.

BigInt operator / (BigInt N,BigInt D, int a=10) {

C++ :: Extra Parameter Passing To Overloaded Binary Operator Function

Jun 11, 2013

I have a class matrixType that has some overloaded operators (+, -, *, and <<). With a view to having clearly-delineated, perfectly-formatted, four-sided matrices, as shown below:

A = 1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9
or
A + B = 1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9

and NOT this jagged ones shown below:

A = 1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9

or

A + B = 1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9
,

I want a scheme in which the string literals (A, A+B, etc.) could be passed as parameters to the overloaded stream insertion (<<) operator function so that I could use the string’s length to determine how much offset from the display screen’s left to apply to each matrix’s row (by using the setw() function). However, I do know that the << operator is a binary operator, meaning the function cannot take more than two parameters: that is what compounds my problem!

C++ :: Passing Struct Arrays To A Function By Value Not By Reference?

Mar 16, 2013

I am working on incorporating a function in to an already existing piece of code, I have incorporated the function fine as far as I am aware.

The problem I have is that I am trying to pass two int arrays to the function, so that i can manipulate and compare them "the values will be changed the originals cannot be changed"

I am having trouble pulling the information out of the already created array, I am able to pass the pointer reference for the single value which is not exactly what i want "best_prog".

My function is below I have commented the memcpy parts and also the majority of the code isn't there cause it is not needed to see make the copy work.

int edit_distance(int index) {
struct prog *progp = &population[best_prog];
/* The struct of best prog not sure if i need one for the other prog I am trying to compare it with the one below doesn't work as intended.*/
//struct prog *progp = &population[];
int editdistance = 0, ar1 = 0, ar2 = 0, a = 0, b = 0, j = 0, x = 0;

I Have opened the file and then passed the opened file to another function to process it further.

here is my code

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <vector>
#include <stdlib.h>

now the problem is when the control exits the "while loop" in the function "readingValues(std::ifstream& myFile)it goes straight to catch block ?

I cannot seem to get why function print_contents will not work. The couts at the end of the program is just to test that it printed correctly.

C++ :: Passing Lambdas As Template Parameter

Oct 6, 2013

I've been playing around with this piece of code:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <algorithm>
template <void(*funky)(const std::string&)>
void callback()
{funky("Hello World!");}

[Code] ....

But when I try to build it, I get this error on line 24:could not convert template argument 'lambda' to 'void (*)(const string&) {aka void (*)(const std::basic_string<char>&)}'|

I thought the lambda expression I wrote would decay to a function pointer matching the template parameter. I can guess that the constexpr qualifier might have changed the type, but without it my compiler complains that lambda needs to be declared as constexpr...

So is there a way to pass lambda expressions as template parameters?

Without having to use std::function

C# :: Passing Object As Parameter Creates A Copy Of It

Dec 17, 2014

Here is my issue: I am making a simple audioplayer in Xamarin.android but i want every time i change the track to make a crossfade effect. So im using 2 mediaplayers at the same time for the fade. The problem is that im defining one time the players and i pass the player as a parameter like this:

public MediaPlayer player = null;
public MediaPlayer player2 = null;
....

If i have to fadeout the player and start the next one im doing it like this:

if (player != null){
if (player.IsPlaying) {
cts = new CancellationTokenSource();
token = cts.Token;
FadeOut (player, 2000 ,token);

[Code] .....

So my problmem is that player and player2 remain always null. Why? i guess c# creates a copy of player and player2 and use this one. How i can pass a mediaplayer as parameter and always use only player and player2?

C++ :: Passing Lambda As Template Parameter Not Working Correctly

May 30, 2013

I've was trying out a function template to automatically get the type of a lambda, but it seems that it won't compile

I've tried two different ways:

1.
template<class HASHER>
auto make_unordered_map(size_t bucketCount, HASHER const && hf)
-> unordered_map<string const, HASHER>&& {
return unordered_map<string const, int, HASHER>(bucketCount, hf);
} auto x = make_unordered_map(1, [](string const& key)->size_t { return key[0]; });

2.
template<class HASHER>
auto make_unordered_map(size_t bucketCount, HASHER const && hf2)
-> unordered_map<string const, int, decltype(hf2)> {
return unordered_map<string const, int, decltype(hf2)>(bucketCount, hf2);
} auto x = make_unordered_map(1, [](string const& key)->size_t { return key[0]; });

The test code are located here:

1. [URL] ....
2. [URL] ....

They are both based on the code that is stated to work in those examples. I.e.:

auto hf = [](string const& key)->size_t { return key[0]; };
unordered_map<string const, int, decltype(hf)> m (1, hf);

C++ :: Passing Classes By Reference?

Mar 1, 2013

I make a class (it stands for an ARMA time series), and I have a method wich modifies some of its variables. In other part of my program I have a function wich receives one object of this class as a parameter and, at some point, it calls the method of the ARMA class to modify it; here is my deal I want to pass the ARMA class by reference to this function, because I want the variables of the instance I'm passing to be modified, not those of a copy the method uses. Also, I would like not to declare the function inside the class ARMA, cause I use it in other places too (it's basically a Nelder-Mead optimization what it performs).

Here is a code wich sketches what I've been trying, and exactly the error message I get is "modifyParameter has not been declared".

#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;

C++ :: Passing STL Array By Reference

Dec 31, 2012

How can I pass a matrix as a reference parameter? I am using the following declarations:

Code:
typedef std::vector< std::vector<std::string> > ss_matrix_t;

I declare the matrix with the following statement, where nRows and nCols are integers

Code:
std::vector< std::vector<std::string> > vI2Matrix(nRows, std::vector<std::string>(nCols,""));

The function is called with:

Code:
int read_files(std::string fname, int nCols, int nRows, ss_matrix_t &ssMat )

But I get a linker error:

error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "int __cdecl read_splayed_files(class std::basic_string<char,struct std::char_traits<char>,class std::allocator<char> >,int,int,class std::vector<class std::basic_string<char,struct std::char_traits<char>,class std::allocator<char> >,class std::allocator<class std::basic_string<char,struct std::char_traits<char>,class std::allocator<char> > > >,class std::vector<class std::vector<class

[Code] ....

I suspect the syntax of the declaration, but I am not sure what to do here? If I change the call to the function, then the array ( matrix ) is passed by value, and it takes forever:

Code:
int read_files(std::string fname, int nCols, int nRows, ss_matrix_t ssMat )
// this takes ages ( it does compile and link )

C++ :: Passing A Stack By Reference?

The program is an RPN Calculator, designed to receive keyboard input of an infix mathematical string, convert the infix string into a postfix mathematical string, and then solve the string. The program then outputs the postfix string and the solution.

The program loops through until closed via force-close, as was assigned.
