the double "if"s are there because i am a n00b and really dont know, i just want a program to keep asking the users question for 4 terms and collect data, this is the only way i know how and it isnt working. I just started 1 week ago. Sigh | :sigh:

Don't worry about it. Once upon a time we were all beginners. Heck, in the majority of software stuff, I *still* am a beginner.

Don't ask me to knock up an e-commerce website. I just about know the name of php/mysql and that's it. I like to think I could learn, but even so...

The big tip I can give you is to single step through your code, keeping an eye on the contents of the variables. The double testing for y is not good though - fix that now before you get into bad habits!

Good luck,

Iain.

Hi,

in one weeks time, you could have read an entire tutorial book from cover to cover; that would have saved you a lot of time and problems, and given you lots of insight and knowledge already.

BTW: when you call scanf twice, it needs input twice. Did you provide a double 'y'? how about newline stuff?

Try using else after your if's - if (sorry) it doesn't do the 'if' it will then perform the 'else' and you can put in a line to print out 'ans' to the screen to see what it really is.

One little thing, Users are a bit odd, if you ask them to type 'Y' upper case, then test for 'y' lower case you might find they didn't do what you expect (they never do).

You could test for if(ans == 'y' || and == 'Y') just in case.

Instead of this:

scanf("%c", &ans);

use this:

ans = getch();

include conio.h for that.

Usually moving the background processing in a worker thread [^] will do the trick.

Your worker thread should post a message to the main (the GUI) one and let the latter updating the list.

Pure Functions..

Hey ppl,

I got stuck with this pure thing.. I got a class which contains pure functions:

virtual void OnMouseDown(int Button, int X, int Y) = NULL;
virtual void OnMouseMove(int X, int Y) = NULL;
virtual void OnMouseUp(int Button, int X, int Y) = NULL;
virtual bool OnRender(void) = NULL;

And I have a derived class which overrides these methods:

bool OnRender(void);
void OnMouseDown(int Button, int X, int Y);
void OnMouseMove(int X, int Y);
void OnMouseUp(int Button, int X, int Y);

But the compiler says:

Error 5 error C2535: 'void CXWindow::OnMouseDown(int,int,int)' : member function already defined or declared
Error 6 error C2535: 'void CXWindow::OnMouseMove(int,int)' : member function already defined or declared
Error 7 error C2535: 'void CXWindow::OnMouseUp(int,int,int)' : member function already defined or declared
Error 12 error C2535: 'void CXWindow::OnMouseDown(int,int,int)' : member function already defined or declared

D'Oh! | :doh:

Ok! if I remove my override functions compiler says:

Error 22 error C2259: 'CXWindow' : cannot instantiate abstract class d:\my codes\chess\chess\dx.cpp 16

Frown | :(

Since I do not override them it says this is abstract! WTF | :WTF:

Ok one more thing that i've noticed: OnRender method is also defined pure abstract but I do not get any error about that! Only difference is it does not contain any parameter and returns bool... Confused | :confused:

thank you in advance...

Some of the function names are the same as those used by MFC.
Change the names and it should work.

Pure virtual functions should be assigned 0 not NULL. It's merely a coincidence that NULL has a value of 0.

Problem while horizontal scrolling

Hi everybody

I am drawing a graph.The Y Axis of the graph is derived from CWnd and is attached to the left end of my view class which is derived from CSrollView.

So while horizontal scrolling of my view class i want to keep the Y Axis stationary.

Can anybody help me to prevent this particular portion of the view from being updated while horizontal scrolling.

Thanks and regards
Deepu

I haven't tried, but I felt that it will work. (It's a little bit complicated.)

Make a region with a rectangular hole for the Y Axis window and set it to the scrollview. So you will get space to place the Y Axis window. The parent of Y Axis window should be the same of that of scrollview. Position the Y Axis window right there.

Steps to make such a region can be as follows
1. Create a rect-region with size of scrollview.
2. Create another rect-region with size and position of Y Axis window.
3. Combine both regions

Apply this combined region to scrollview.

Thanks for the reply

I did the same before.

I am having a class CGraphicsView derived from CScrollview
Then CYAxis derived from CWnd
Then i am dynamically creating the CYAxis to CGraphicsView in OnCreate function.

Then in OnDraw function i am displaying the CYAxis.

But the problem i am facing is that while horizontal scrolling the YAxis values is getting disturbed ie is not aligned properly.
