IN VC++ 6. how do you 'Watch' an entire array - Not just the individual elements.
|
|
|
|
|
1. Watch in the memory window
2. List all individual elements in the watch window
|
|
|
|
|
If you open up the watch window, you can type in the name of the array. Then you will be able to click on the plus button to the left of the array and expand all of its elements.

Light a man on fire, and he will be warm for the rest of his life!

|
|
|
|
The array was allocated dynamically...wud that be the reason why, when I click the + sign, it shows only the first element and not all of them ?
|
|
|
|
|
Yes, that would be the problem. The debugger is not quite sure how long your buffer is. In that case you can qualify your data by placing a comma (,) after the name of your pointer, and the number of elements that you want to watch.

yeah, use format specifiers. e.g.
"20x" will show 20 elements in hex
"20d" will show 20 elements in decimal
"20m" will dump 20 bytes of memory
experiment!
also check "r" for structs

For a dynamically allocated array, you can put in
Pointer_name,#
Where # is the number of elements you want to watch.

I have a CObject based class which supports serialization, but am having problems with classes derived from that.
Basically I have the main object which contains all the data, and a serialization function that works fine for that object, and a set of various classes that are all derived from that base class, which provide slightly different functionality, but all work off the data members in the base class.
The data structure builds up as a tree of objects (each object has a pointer to the next item in the list, and also a child)
Now the problem is that these children are all of different types (but all derived from the original base class).
I serialize the code like this
rxArchive >> m_pxNextEvent;
rxArchive >> m_pxFirstSubEvent;
(same for saving but with <<s)
each derived="" class="" has="" its="" own="" serialize="" function="" which="" simply="" calls="" the="" main="" class's="" serialize.
when="" i="" store="" data,="" correct="" functions="" get="" called,="" but="" when="" loading="" back="" in="" only="" base="" seems="" to="" used,="" and="" an="" error="" message="" saying="" "<filename>="" contained="" invalid="" object"
any="" ideas?=""

No stead fast solution for this, because you dont know
what object's data you are going to read next and the object
might not exist in the program till then and has to be created.
What i would do is read in thru the base and then check for the
type of object based on the information just read in and then
create the derived class object.
You could have a member which would store a code which signifies
which class type does it belongs to!

From the symptoms that you described, I think that you probably need to change the IMPLEMENT_SERIAL for the derived classes.
When you have a base class and multiple derived classes, you need to specify the parent class in the IMPLEMENT_SERIAL of the derived classes, and not CObject.
For instance, if you have a class called Base derived from CObject and 2 derived classes called Der1 and Der2 derived from Base, you would need the following:
IMPLEMENT_SERIAL( Base, CObject, 1 )
IMPLEMENT_SERIAL( Der1, Base, 1 )
IMPLEMENT_SERIAL( Der2, Base, 1 )
Best regards,
John

Hmm, that could be the problem. I'd put CObject as the base for everything (the MSDN docs aren't too clear, since technically CObject is the base class of the derived classes  )

Yup, that fixed it. It's now working wonderfully

does anyone know how to make a thread to run a function in a class?

This is a two step process. Generally you create a static function in the class which is initially called when you create the thread. The parameter you pass through is a pointer to the object that you want to run the thread in. In the static function you cast the pointer to your object type and call the function in the class you want to use.
AfxBeginThread(YourClass::SteppingStone, (LPVOID)pObject) ;
UINT YourClass::SteppingStone(LPVOID lpv)
{
YourClass *pObject = (YourClass*)lpv ;
int ret = pObject->YourFunction() ;
return ret ;
}

where did you get (LPVOID)pObject) ; from, because its not workin for me.

Let's say you have:
CYourObject* pObject = new CYourObject;
... Roger suggestions goes here ...
or if inside of your class use this pointer instead of pObject
of course, the thread function is static.

when i use this code i get this error:-
D:\SpeakIt\SpeakItDlg.cpp(184) : error C2665: 'AfxBeginThread' : none of the 2 overloads can convert parameter 1 from type 'void (void)'
Is there something else im missing?

Parameter 1 is the pointer of thread function.
UINT MyControllingFunction( LPVOID pParam );
This function can be static if you use a member function of a class
or it can be a global function.
If you use a global function, remove YourClass::MyControllingFunction.
Only the second parameter is a void pointer. You may want to take a look

Use LPVOID or void * not void for second parameter.

Make the function static ??

sometimes i need to determine a list control has how many columns at run time,
one way is to remember the count of InsertColumn,
or :CHeaderCtrl* pHeader = (CHeaderCtrl*) GetDlgItem(0);
int nColumnCount = pHeader->GetItemCount();
anybody can tell me how to get the count in another way?
thanks !

Seems like you know the answer already!

I tend to just get a pointer to the Header Control and use GetItemCount.
Not sure why you'd want another way (of if there is one)
