Hi
Thanks for your kind reply..
I tried the way, but i guess it is showing me the memory location
DWORD dwTest(0xFFFFFFFF);
CString cszTest;
cszTest.Format(_T("DEC: %u HEX: 0x%08x"), dwTest, dwTest);
cout<<cszTest;
I am getting a output of
0036AA20

problem may be with cout and unicode. To ensure it, try with _tprintf(_T("%s", cszTest));
I don't know whether there is any unicode version of cout.

try changing change it to:

If the project setting is UNICODE, you may have to use as follows:
wcout << (LPCTSTR)cszTest;
Give it a try if cout is not working

hi
i need to gain the path of adobe acrobat but i don't know how.
i know that i can use registery but i don't know the adobe acrobat's key in registery.
can you help me?
thanks.

I could find it, for the version 9.0 :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\9.0\Installer\Pathvirtual void BeHappy() = 0;
|
|
|
|
|
do you think the other version, store in the other place?!!
|
|
|
|
|
Yes, I think so,
the registry path part "9.0" may be different... virtual void BeHappy() = 0;

The code:
class testClass {
public:
testClass() { m_buff = new BYTE[20];
memcpy(m_buff, "0123456789", 10);
};
~testClass() { delete m_buff; };
operator LPBYTE () { return m_buff; };
void show() {
cout << "m_buff = " << (__int64) (void *) m_buff << "\n\t";
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
cout << m_buff[i];
cout << "\n";
};
private:
LPBYTE m_buff;
};
int main(int argc, char * argv[])
{
testClass * foo = new testClass();
foo->show();
cout << "foo = " << (__int64) (void *) foo << "\n";
cout << "(LPBYTE) foo = " << (__int64) (void *) ( (LPBYTE) foo ) << "\n\t";
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
cout << ((LPBYTE) foo)[i];
cout << "\n";
delete foo;
return true;
};
And some output:
m_buff = 9180016
0123456789
foo = 9179968
(LPBYTE) foo = 9179968
-garbage-
I was expecting to see:
m_buff = 9180016
0123456789
foo = 9179968
(LPBYTE) foo = 9180016
0123456789
What am I missing ?
I know I could accomplish something similar with a member function returning the address of m_buff, but in my ever more ridiculous quest to learn more aspects of C++, I wanted to try this operator overloading bit....
As always, any guidance you can offer is greatly appreciated.

My apologies for using __int64... I know it's Microsoft specific, but I use what I've got.

Don't you mean (LPBYTE)*foo since foo is a pointer?

PS: You might want to add copy constructor and assignment operator to your class. Law of the Big Two, classes that handle memory/resources usually need a copy constructor and an assignment operator.

I didn't understand your post until Pallini gave a longer explanation of this.
Thanks for your help!!!
PS:
Thanks for the suggestion about the Big Two, but I don't think so in this case.
The idea behind the class is for it to always behave as a dynamically-allocated LPBYTE, but somtimes point to a MMF, when the buffer is larger than a certain threshold.
In both cases (true LPBYTE or LPBYTE pointing to an MMF), the standard memory functions (memcpy, memset, etc.) are appropriate.
(Which is why I want the cast to point to the same place as the member pointer m_buff.)

The address of the class and the one of the m_buff variable (i.e. &m_buff) are the same.
On the other hand, the address of the class differs from that of the memory buffer (i.e. m_buff).
To verify, add the following line to the show method:
cout << "&m_buff = " << (__int64) (void *) &m_buff << "\n\t";
(that happens because of dynamic memory allocation).

I changed the operator function to:
operator LPBYTE () { cout << "Inside operator.\n"; return &this->m_buff[0]; };
...but Inside operator. never appears in the output.
If I explicitly use foo->operator LPBYTE() then Inside operator. appears in the output but not if I use an explicit cast (LPBYTE) foo.
Any ideas on that one ?
Thanks,
MZR

Sorry, I misunderstood the original question (I missed the cast operator overloading...  ).
You overloaded correctly it, but you should apply it to an instance of the class not to a pointer to, modify from
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
cout << ((LPBYTE) foo)[i];
to
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
cout << ((LPBYTE) (*foo))[i];

u expect to see
(LPBYTE) foo = 9180016 and its true.. remeber m_buff is a ptr, so just check its address (using &m_buff). Hope u will see it is same as (LPBYTE)foo Means m_buff is just a ptr which holds an address somewhere in heap.
And while printing (LPBYTE)foo it provides garbage, because both foo & m_buff is dynamically allocated, so we can never say where they r in heap. To become more clear make m_buff an array, say m_buff[10], then (LPBYTE)foo will print 0123.. as u expected. Also see (void*)&m_buff = (void*)foo Hope now things are clear to u..

I'm clear that m_buff is a pointer, and what I want is for (LPBYTE) foo to point to the same place m_buff points, not to point to m_buff itself.
My class uses the buffer size to sometimes have m_buff point to a dynamically allocated BYTE array and sometimes point to a MMF, but to allow the given buffer to be accessed as an LPBYTE regardless of the buffer 'implementation.'
It seems, though, that (LPBYTE) foo gives a pointer to the testClass object, rather than the memory pointed to by m_buff.
I think I said it in the original post, but I could accomplish this easily with a member function like
LPBYTE getBuff() { return &this->m_buff[0]; };
..but I thought this was a good opportunity to learn about operator overloading.
Thanks!

As Moak said, try :
cout << foo->LPBYTE()[0]; virtual void BeHappy() = 0;
|
|
|
|
|
This:
LPBYTE bar = foo->operator LPBYTE();
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
cout << bar[i];
cout << "\n";
Gives the expected output
0123456789
....it's like my overloaded operator isn't being called when I try to explicitly cast to (LPBYTE).
|
|
|
|
|
Very good
And now, as Moak said, try :
LPBYTE lpOut = *foo;
cout << lpOut[0]; virtual void BeHappy() = 0;
