C++ :: Static Versus Dynamic Array

Feb 27, 2013

there is a performance difference (e.g access time, speed, ...) between allocating static memory vs dynamic memory?

For example, if am reading data from a file, and storing them inside a huge buffer, what would be the differences between storing these data inside a static buffer vs a dynamic one?

C++ :: Why Can't Static Array Copy Values From Dynamic Array

Mar 13, 2013

But it can the other way around

Code:
static_Array= dynamic_Array;
dynamic_Array = static_Array;

The second statement works and i'm able to print out both arrays with equal values but with the first

[code] static_Array = dynamic_Array;I get incompatible types in assignment of 'int*' to 'int [7]' is the error I get [/code]

C++ :: Difference Between Static And Dynamic Cast?

Oct 10, 2013

Is there a difference between having static and dynamic cast in this scenario? The output is the same.

Code:
Base* pb = new Derived();
if(Derived* pd2 = static_cast<Derived*>(pb)) // true {
pd2->get_price(); // calls Base::get_price()
pd2->get_rate(); // calls Derived::get_rate()

C++ :: Measuring Execution Time Of Static And Dynamic Binding

Jan 11, 2013

consider the code bellow

#include<iostream>
#include<ctime>
#include<boost/progress.hpp>
using namespace std;
class parent {
public:
virtual void dynamic_display(){

[Code] ....

I am getting the following as output

Calculating....Static Function is called1times
The number of processor clicks is0time is0
Calculating....Dynamic function is called1times
The number of processor clicks is0time is0
Static Function is called2times
Dynamic function is called2times
Static Function is called3times
Dynamic function is called3times

I am actually trying to calculate the time to execute a statically binding method and a dynamically binded one.consider only the first four lines in my output. Why am i not getting the actual result.

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++ :: Fill Value Of Dynamic Array Of Dynamic Arrays?

Jan 4, 2013

I'm writing a program in which I have to use a matrix to represent a file in code. because it's a file, the size of the matrix is undefined, and therefore the matrix has to be dynamic. I found out that my compiler doesn't like dynamic multidimensional arrays, so I was thinking of this matrix as a dynamic (monodimensional) array of other dynamic (monodimensional) arrays. My program (and thus this example) uses unsigned chars.

unsigned char variable=something;
unsigned char**matrix=new unsigned char*[lenghtOfMainArray];
for(int rowNumber=0;rowNumber<lenghtOfArray;rowNumber++)
{

[Code].....

C :: Function That Will Work For Both Dynamic And Static Implementations Of A Function To Get Transverse Of Matrix

Feb 11, 2013

i need a function that will work for both dynamic and static implementations of a function to get the transverse of a matrix. so far, i have this

Code:

matrix transpose(matrix m)
{
int row, col;
row = m.com_dim;
col= m.row_dim;
}

[code]....

this works well with my static implementation, but when i try it in dynamic it gives me errors. the function has to be the same for both dynamic and static implementation

C++ :: Dot Operator Versus Arrow

Jun 26, 2014

I understand that the dot operator is:

Code: a.b "a"

is the actual object (not a memory location) and "b" is the member. I also understand the arrow to mean:

Code: a->b "a"

is a pointer to a struct and "b" is it's member so "a" is dereferenced then "b" is given.

Here is where I get a little confused. I have a class:

exampleclass.h
Code:
#ifndef EXAMPLECLASS_H_INCLUDED
#define EXAMPLECLASS_H_INCLUDED
class exampleclass{

[Code].....

Also if ec1 had a public variable and I wanted to access it would it be referenced the same way as the method I call in ec1?

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?

C++ :: Merge Sort - Top Down Versus Bottom Up

Apr 28, 2014

I tried to keep the coding style as similar as possible. I tested these with 4 million (4x1024x1024) 64 bit unsigned integers, Visual Studio 2005, 64 bit mode, Win XP X64, Intel 2600K 3.4ghz cpu. The average time for top down = 3.7 seconds, bottom up = 3.5 seconds.

Code: // tsorttd.h - top down merge sort
template <class T>
T * TopDownMergeSort(T a[], T b[], size_t n) {
TopDownMergeSortAtoA(a, b, 0, n);

C++ :: Function Pointers Versus Subclasses

Feb 25, 2013

I am in a position to choose between function pointers and subclassed objects. To make it clear, say I have to notify some object of some action (a timer for example); refer to the following two choices (a very basic code for demo purposes):

Version 1

typedef void TimerCallback(void *args);
class Timer{
public:
Timer();

[Code] .....

Version 2:

class TimerTask{
public:
TimerTask();
virtual ~TimerTask();
void timedout()=0;

[Code] .....

which one is the standard C++ way and which one is efficient?

C++ :: Runtime Speed Integer Versus Double

May 27, 2013

Using integers faster than using floating points? Or more precise: what do you estimate as the chance that writing a custom floating point class is worth the effort?

I need to examine some C++ code for an ARM7 or ARM9 processor. Instead of using floating points, the coder had chosen to use integers only. To be able to fake floating points, a custom class was written. The coder states that he avoids using floating points as these are much how much slower. "Have you measured this?", I asked. "No, but it is known to be so", he replied.

Google taught me that most people state integers are faster than using doubles, because their operations (addition, multiplication) take less assembler instructions. But if you need those floating points, what do you estimate as the chance that writing a custom floating point class is worth the effort?

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 :: Static Array Of Function Pointers

Jan 29, 2015

I basically have some code that lets users register callbacks into a callback table at a specified index. There is one element in this table for each event that can trigger a callback. I basically do something like this:

In a header file

Code:
typedef struct _GMclient
{
GMcommunicator gcomm;
GMclient_callback callback_table[(int)MAX_CALLBACKS];
}GMclient;

typedef int (*GMclient_callback)(GMclient*, void*, void*);

Then I allow them to set the callback with a function that basically ends up doing this (in a .c file that includes the previous mentioned .h file):

Code:
void
GMclient_register_callback(GMclient *client,
GMclient_callback fxn,
int index)

[Code] ....

Then later when I need to invoke that callback, I pull it out of the table

Code: GMclient_callback *fxn = client->callback_table[CMD_INDEX];

However, I get compilation errors:

Code: src/gmanager_client.c:43:6:

error: a label can only be part of a statement and a declaration is not a statement...

C++ ::  Static Member In Struct Array?

Jun 25, 2013

Here's the definition of my struct:

struct Speaker {
static int numElem;
string name;
int number; // Phone
string topic;
float fee;
};

// IN main() FUNCTION
Speaker s[10];

The goal is for numElem to keep track of how many of the 10 elements are in use. However, I'm not sure the proper way to access the element, if it's even possible.

C/C++ :: Doubly Linked List Versus Double Ended Queue

Jun 27, 2014

A while ago i was asked to write a program for a class that used a "Double ended queue with a current-position marker."

An example of some of the functions that i created are:

boolean atFirst() // Returns true if first element is current. Pre: !isEmpty().
boolean atLast() // Returns true if last element is current. Pre: !isEmpty().
void makeEmpty() // Sets this List to the empty state. Post: isEmpty().
void moveFirst() // Sets current marker to first element.
void movePrev() // Moves current marker one step toward first element.
void moveNext() // Moves current marker one step toward last element.
void insertBeforeFirst(int data) // Inserts new element before first element.

My question is whether a double ended queue with pointer is the same thing as a "doubly linked list" in this case. The terminology is throwing me of a little. If the two concepts are different, how is a doubly linked list different?

C++ :: Passing Object With Templated Static Array Into Another

Feb 3, 2014

This problem just seems really strange to me because it is simple yet for some reason my class cannot pass into another class. The class PASS_OBJECT has a static array (even with 1 element this doesn't work) and when I try to pass this class (after it is initialized) I seem to lose the data inside the PASS_OBJECT. Not only that but even when I declared the class OBJECT with the type of PASS_OBJECT<int> I seem to lose the integer 99. Here's the code, note that if you comment out line 89, 92 and 93 you will notice that line 90 outputs In main 2: 99 just fine but it doesn't otherwise???

#include <iostream>
const int size = 1;
template <class T>
class PASS_OBJECT;
template <class S>
class OBJECT {

C++ :: Calculate Percentage Of Times Coin Flipped Either Heads Versus Tails

I'm having trouble getting the program to calculate the percentage of times it flipped either heads versus tails. I realize what I currently have doesn't work because above I initialized heads and tails by giving them values of 0, but I'm unsure of how to fix it.

#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <ctime>
using namespace std;
int main () {
srand(time(0));

C :: Dynamic 2D Array To Function?

Jul 15, 2013

Code:
Int** d = malloc( ROWS * sizeof(int*));
for (i = 0; i < ROWS; i++)
d[i] = malloc(COLS * sizeof(int));
fx(d);

My question is, in a function declaration, why do I not have to specify the number of columns. How is this different than when I pass a static 2D array to a function, in which I must declare the function parameter with the number of columns.

Code: void fx(int d[][COLS]);
VS.
Code: void fx(int **d);

C++ :: How To Get Size Of Dynamic Array

Jun 12, 2013

I remember in C++, when a dynamic array is allocated, the size of this array is stored right before the array in memory. Therefore compiler knows exactly how long, when this array is deleted.

Do all compilers store the size this way? Is it a safe method to get the size of a dynamic array?

Here is a example code, it works fine on Visual Studio 2012.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
class dummy {
public:
dummy() {
cout<<"dummy created"<<endl;

C++ :: Dynamic Map Creation Or Array

Mar 4, 2014

I need to create dynamic array or map. for example

CString *a1;
CString *a2;
CString *a3;

it minimized to using for loop.
for (int i=1;i<=3;i++) {
CString s="a"+"itoa(i)"
CString *s;
}

Something like this. its same as map concept.
