Visual C++ :: Declaring Member Variables In Windows Form App
Sep 30, 2014
I have created a windows form project in visual studio so that I can use a windows form to interact with the game class that I'm creating, but I'm running into some problems.
For one thing, I would like to be able to call Image::FromFile() one time only during initialization, and store the result in a member variable (called mBGImage). From what I can tell, the variable needs to be of type String^ (this caret symbol is new to me, but I understand it is the "managed code" version of the standard pointer, which would look like String*).
When I try to compile the following code (located in my header file) I get the error :
"error C3265: cannot declare a managed 'mBGImage' in an unmanaged 'BSG::BSGame'".
How can I store the result of Image::FromFile() permanently in my class?
When I try to declare a global variable of type "Image^", I get "error C3145: global or static variable may not have managed type System:rawing::Image ^"
#include "stdafx.h"
using namespace System;
using namespace System::ComponentModel;
using namespace System::Collections;
using namespace System::Windows::Forms;

Alright, so I'm making a windows form with a few hundred buttons, and one button will change color based on data the program receives over a socket. This is what I have, and it kind of works, but I don't want to have to make another if statement for all 260 buttons.
void hitmiss(std::string u){
std::string^ ind = reccdata2();
if (u == "button6"){
if (ind == "1"){
this->button6->BackColor = System::Drawing::Color::Red;
this->textBox2->Text = L"hit";
[Code] .....
What I want to do is make it more like
void hitmiss(System::String^ u){
std::string^ ind = reccdata2();
if (ind == "1"){
this->u->BackColor = System::Drawing::Color::Red;
this->textBox2->Text = L"hit";
[Code] ....
But it returns the error that u is not a part of Form1.

I am wanting to separate the logic from the visual, but I'm having problems when calling the method that controls the actions of the progress bar timer.
Code:
ifndef PROGRESS_BAR
define PROGRESS_BAR
class Progress_bar{
public:
void set_Progress(ToolStripStatusLabel^ label,Timer^ time){
[Code] ....
The way that I'm calling this method on Form1.h
void set_Progress(toolStripStatusLabel1 ,timer1);
Errors:
Error1error C2182: 'set_Progress' : illegal use of type 'void'h:cry_devprogrammingc++school_mediaschool_mediaForm1.h277
Error2error C2078: too many initializersh:cry_devprogrammingc++school_mediaschool_mediaForm1.h277
Error3error C2440: 'initializing' : cannot convert from 'System::Windows::Forms::Timer ^' to 'int'h:cry_devprogrammingc++school_mediaschool_mediaForm1.h277

I want to write my own application which would fetch some data from a web site. I need to parse the HTML code of the web site and get the data.
About the application:A form (main form) that will contain data arranged in rows. Some of the data comes from a web site and some of it comes from a database.The data that comes from the web site needs to be updated every few seconds so I need to keep fetching the data from the web site.The main form will contain a button "add" which when clicked will add a new row. New data can be added to this row by the user.
I am not sure what to use for this. I have been writing the application as a Windows Form Application (Visual C#) but I do not know whether this is the best choice. Should it be a windows form application or web application? Should I use something else?

C++
Create a Triangle class that has the following member variables:
side1 - a double
side2 - a double
side 3 - a double perimeter area
The class should have the following member functions:
- default constructor that sets the value of all 3 sides of a triangle to 0.0
- a constructor with arguments that accepts values for the three sides of a triangle (member variables) as arguments
- setDimensions - a function that allows the value of the three sides to be entered by the user through the keyboard
- testSides - a function that determines if the 3 values entered can actually be the sides of a triangle. If they do not create a triangle, print the values entered and an appropriate message
--The sum of any two side lengths of a triangle must always be greater than the length of the third side: so side 1 + side 2 > side 3 and side 1 + side 3 > side 2 and side 2 + side 3 > side 1 ( all three must be true for the 3 values to make a triangle)
- getSide1 - a function that returns the value of side 1, getSide2 - a function that returns the value of side 2, getSide3 - a function that returns the value of side 3
- getArea - a function that returns the area of a triangle: The formula for the area of a triangle (when the height is not known) is: A = sqrt (p(p-side1)(p-side2)(p-side3)) where p = (side1+side2+side3)/2
- getPerimeter - a function that returns the perimeter of a triangle: Perimeter = side1 + side2+ Side 3
- A displayTriangleInfo function that displays side1, side2, side3, area, and perimeter for a triangle object.
After testing your code for a single object, create an array of 5 triangles. Use a for loop and the setDimensions function to allow the user to set the values for the 3 sides of a triangle, test the vales entered to determine if the 3 create a triangle. If they do create a triangle than use the getArea and getPerimeter functions to calculate the Area and Perimeter for the triangle and use the displayTriangleInfo function to display all of the data for that triangle. If the three values do not create a triangle then print the 3 numbers entered and an appropriate message. In either case the loop should then move on and get the data for the next triangle from the user.

I have a form with 2 text boxes (Email and Password)
The user fills in the text boxes and clicks on the Log in button. The code behind the log in button does the following, First connects to a table (Users) in phpmyadmin. Next runs a SQL query (SELECT * FROM `users` WHERE Email = '" + sEmail + "' AND Password = '" + sPassword + "'") sEmail being the variable created from the text entered in Email text box and the same for password.
Next if the record count == to 1 it opens up the main menu form and if the record count == 0 it fails and the user does not get to the main menu.
All of the above is fine and working however what I want to do is take over a variable from the log in form to the other forms.
The code is below for the sign in button as all my code is behind that (I think this may be where I'm going wrong).
public partial class WelcomeForm : Form{
public static string connStr = "server = localhost; " +
"database = ppw5; " +
"uid = James; " +
"pwd = buster;";
[Code] .....
And the Main menu form where I'd like to take a variable over with me, lets assume the variable is the UserID from the database table that I pull from the dTable I created.
public partial class MenuForm : Form {
//Call the CloseProgram class and create a new method called ClassClose.
CloseProgram ClassClose = new CloseProgram();
WelcomeForm User = new WelcomeForm();
public MenuForm() {
InitializeComponent();
[Code] .....

This is a c program that is failing to compile. The error occurs in the calcLabs() function. The error called out is (btw, I'm using VS 2010): Error4error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before 'type'
I don't understand why the compiler is not letting me declare variables in the calcLabs() function!
Code:
#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
void calcPercent(double *);
double calcLabs();
double calcExams();
double calcFinal();
char calcLetter(float);

I really do not see the difference between these two declarations:
int myvariable;
int * mypointer;
It is said that when you define a pointer, instead of containing actual data, it contains a pointer to the memory location where information can be found.
But doesn't the other variable declaration do the same? It obviously doesn't have data either. And it must be stored in a memory location as well. So I do not see the difference.

I am looking for a way to declare variables at run time which being a static language shouldn't happen. I will explain my situation.
I am upgrading a legacy program that modifies executables (non malicious). I am trying to add 64bit support.
It is a huge project and I understand the majority of it but my issues with how it handles the input data.
It has a struct that certain parameters of the input file is loaded into:
Code:
typedef struct DATA {
DWORD Size;
IMAGE_NT_HEADERS32 Headers;
} _DATA; *PDATA
etc, etc its a huge list.
My problem lies in the fact that I need to change IMAGE_NT_HEADERS_32 to IMAGE_NT_HEADERS64 at runtime.
That DATA struct gets called at least 110 times during runtime.
How I might tackle this? Having a conditional statement repeated that many times seems ridiculous.

I would like to have a unmodifiable standard of WAVEFORMATEX defined as a member of a class of mine. Something like:
class InputTest {
public:
const WAVEFORMATEX StandardWaveFormat;
public:
void TakeInput(WAVEFORMATEX pFormat);
};
Then in my cpp file to hard-code the values:
WAVEFORMATEX InputTest::StandardWaveFormat {
//Instantiate WaveFormat -- PCM standards
StandardWaveFormat.wFormatTag = WAVE_FORMAT_PCM;
StandardWaveFormat.cbSize = 0; //extra information sent over stream. Usually ignored in PCM format.
[Code] ....
I get the following errors starting with the header file:
Error1error C2146: syntax error : missing ';' before identifier 'StandardWaveFormat'
Error2error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int
both associated with the "const WAVEFORMATEX StandardWaveFormat; " line.
Here's a link to the WAVEFORMATEX struct: [URL] .....
Then the cpp source code is probably way off. Let me know if you'd like to see the errors associated with that.

Below is a working program. Please note that the vector <int*> pointer is declared as a public member of the class A.
The problem arises when I try to make it a private (instead of public). First, let's look at the File 1 below. It compiles and works fine.
File 1: main.cpp (working fine)
#include <vector>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

I'm fairly new to visual C++ programming in a windows form and the code displayed below works fine. However my issue is as soon as the program is running it will display "failure" on label7 as soon as the button is clicked. I understand why it is doing this as "a" is not in the textbox at this time so it reads the else line and displays the message. When I enter "a" in the textbox everything works fine and label7 changes to the right message.
private: System::Void button1_Click(System::Object^ sender, System::EventArgs^ e) {
label1->Text = "Question 1: test";
label2->Text = "A. test";
label3->Text = "B. test";
label4->Text = "C. test";

I created a simple calculator in Win App. When I played it, the form is displayed blank. Not a single control is shown.
The only thing I've done differently is adding a Coded UI Test in my test project. This is the first time I'm going to try to add a coded UI test so I wonder if that's the cause for this.

I need to write a windows form application that allows the user to enter a credit card number and credit card type and then determines whether it is a valid number using the following rules:
1.) the first number is:
a. 4 for visa
b. 5 for master card
c. 37 for american express
d. 6 for discover
2.) passes the mod 10/ luhn check, which is calculated as:
a. from right to left, multiply every other digit by 2. when doubling a digit results in a two digit number, add the numbers to get
a single digit. ( like 6 * 2 = 12 therefore 1 + 2 = 3).
b. add all the single digits from 2a
c. add all the odd places from right to left in the card number
d. sum the results fro steps 2b and 2c
e. if the resulting number in 2c is divisible by 10, the card number is valid otherwise it is invalid.
The chapter is introducing methods so that is the main thing i will be using for each step.

I want to load a file to rich text box component. I have this line:
richTextBox1->LoadFile("StudentaiRez.txt", RichTextBoxStreamType->PlainText);
But I get an error when I try to pass second parameter. It says : type name is not allowed.
I probably write it wrong, but I can't remember the correct way. In examples I only see that instead of -> dot is used, but it doesn't work either.
