I'm struggling on this one... appreciate any hints you experts can offer.
Just trying to print out a histogram, using asterisks, to show the number of times each number 2-12 was rolled, after 50 rolls. I created the following two loops and cannot get the asterisks to continue to the next line as appropriate
<br />
max = maximum (frequency, arraySize); <br />
<br />
for (int countDown = max; countDown >= 0; countDown--)<br />
<br />
for (int j = 0; j < (arraySize-2); j++) <br />
<br />
if (frequency[j+2] <= countDown)<br />
cout << setw(3) << "*" << " ";<br />
<br />
else<br />
cout << setw(3) << " " << " ";<br />
<br />
<br />
for (face = 2; face < arraySize; face++)<br />
cout << setw(3) << face << " ";<br />
I tried adding an if statement---> if (j%10 == 0) cout << endl;
doesn't work.
Any suggestions?
Thanks so much!

When writing a for loop you need to use the curly braces when your statements within that for loop extend beyond 1 line. The two examples are the same, writing a new line doesn't occur until after the inner for loop has completed:
for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
for(int j = 0; j < i; j++)
{
cout << "*";
}
cout << endl;
}
or
for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
for(int j = 0; j < i; j++)
cout << "*";
cout << endl; <font color="green">
}

Thanks Nick! That gets me one step further to figuring this thing out!;)

 I wanna use HOOK to catch the BM_SETSTATE message of a button，and i don't wanna return it to the button.i catch the BM_SETSTATE and did't return ::CallNextHookEx(hHook,nCode,wParam,lParam);
but the message is still pass to the button when i push "OK" of the Messagebox.
Pls. see my code here:
LRESULT CALLBACK CallWndProc(int nCode,WPARAM wParam,LPARAM lParam)
{
if(nCode != HC_ACTION)
{
return ::CallNextHookEx(hHook,nCode,wParam,lParam);
}
if(nCode == HC_ACTION)
{
pCwp = (CWPSTRUCT *)lParam;
if((wParam == 0) && (pCwp->message == BM_SETSTATE))
{
TRACE(childWinList[107].winText);
//MessageBox(NULL,childWinList[107].winText,childWinList[110].winText,MB_OK);
::SendMessage(pCwp->hwnd,WM_GETTEXT,256,(LPARAM) b);
CString a = b;
if (a == "Confirm Load")
{
GetWindowsList();
if (childWinList[107].winText != childWinList[110].winText+"_"+childWinList[89].winText)
{
if (!bShow) return -1;
bShow = 0;
if(IDOK == MessageBox(NULL,"The device Number and program name do not match!",b,MB_OK))
{
bShow = 1;
}
return -1;
}
}
}
}
return ::CallNextHookEx(hHook,nCode,wParam,lParam);
}

I'm developing an app in VC6 & MFC where I'd like to ship multiple versions of the software utilizing the same base source code. By multiple versions, I mean two variations of the same application. One version will be like a "Basic" version and another will be an "Advanced" version. So basically the same idea as Windows 2000 Pro and Windows 2000 Server. Both pieces of software utilize the same base code, generally speaking, but have different features available.
I'm looking for ideas, methodologies, approaches, design, etc. on how to implement this. Is the only answer preprocessor directives? What about some type of plug-in approach? The result needs to be able to modify the UI (menu bar, menu items, etc.) I've done a little research on the web but haven't found a "clean" approach to this problem. Help! Thanks

I'm using the DeleteFile Function in an attempt to delete the program that is running. How can a program delete itself? I tried renaming the executable before deleting it, and it does is rename it but doesn't delete it. I suspect you can't delete an open file or program in NT, but I'm sure someone here has found a way to make a program delete itself aka uninstaller..
Any help would be thouroughly appreciated. Thanks in advance friends!

The easiest way is to create a batch file (.bat), from your program, start the batch file and exit your program.
In the batch file you loop until you can delete the programfile, and you delete the batch file (it can delete itself, a running program can not)

Consider this function
copyString(char *dest , char *source)
The minimal code to perform this copy is
copyString(char *dest , char *source) <br />
{<br />
while(*dest++=*source++);<br />
}
which can also be written as
copyString(char *dest , char *source) <br />
{<br />
while((*dest++=*source++)!=0);<br />
}
Now consider two strings
dest = <undefined>;<br />
source="sensibleString\0...garbage;
How does the while loop override the asignment operator = and copy only till the source is '\0';
My question is that I need a reason for the loop not to be running infinetely
Doesn't the while loop keep running till the assignment succeeds ? i.e how are garbage values after '\0' not being copied into source ?
Please help me solve this doubt !

it doesn't.
in C/C++, the 'result' of an assignment is equal to the right side of the assignment.
in other words:
int a,b,c;
a = 5;
b = 10;
c = a = b;
so, the loop runs until the 'result' of the assignment is 0.

Remove the ";" at the end of the line of the while loop. There is not ";" after a loop.
while((*dest++=*source++)!=0)
{}
What do you have "0" instead of "\0" in the while loop?
while((*dest++=*source++)!= "\0")
{}

Hi All, wondering if someone could take a look at the following program and give me any hints/insight as to why I can't get the appropriate amount of asterisks to print above each number.
This program rolls two dice and is supposed to calculate the number of rolls for each number 2-12, and show that in a histogram.
Any suggestions? THANK YOU for any help!

This looks like homework, however I would assume you want to do something like:
++frequency[i] = (1 + rand() % 6);
b/c with what you typed, your not storing anything within the array.

Three things:
- Your maximum function sorts the array passed in, totally destroying your data.
- You initialize your table array to all zero, and never add anything to it. What's the use of that?
- in your histogram function, you have if (frequency [j+2] <= max). This line will *always* be true.
Your basic logic here is flawed. You initialize the frequency array just fine, but you are messing up your data and display code.

Not really sure where this should go but I thought I'd ask here first. Does anyone know how I can make an installer for my IE Deskband (Toolbar)?? All I have to do is compile the code and it automatically works on my computer but how do I make it install onto another person's computer? Thanks for any help.

regsvr32 [dll name]
many installation tools have an option to autoamtically register ( call DllRegisterServer ) of dlls included in the install package.
to remove the toolbar you need to call DllUnregisterServer. for example by using regsvr32 again with the /u parameter.

Visual Studio Installer is a good free setup creator program. It builds Windows Installer files (*.msi) and automates some of the more complex parts.

no ,look i use win32 projects .
u know my problem is that my newly made dll isn't loaded in my program properly .
compiler throw me some fatal errors like i can't find the dll .
in a nutshel:
my DLL makeing project :
neededheader.h
relativecpp.cpp
madeDLL.dll
now my test project:
neededheader.h
madeDLL.dll
testcpp.cpp
-----------------
Nick could u shed me a light in this issue?

When you build a DLL you also get an import LIB file that contains the functions and data exported from the DLL. The other app needs to link with that LIB so it knows which DLL contains the functions/data.

Hi:
I'm working on custom editbox activex control but i have two problems!
1)
i have read a lot of articles in MSDN about changing the BackColor
and TextColor of an edit box through the "WM_CTLCOLOR" message
"""OnCtlColor(CDC* pDC, CWnd* pWnd, UINT nCtlColor)""".But i couldn't use them
in my project to change the BackColor and TextColor of editbox.in the other hand
the mentioned function doesn't work in Activex projects!!!.i have tested frequently.
2)
in some conditions i need to have an editbox with Right-To-Left
reading order so i useed following code to do this:
void CMyEditBoxCtrl::PreSubclassWindow()
{
// TODO: Add your specialized code here and/or call the base class
COleControl::PreSubclassWindow();
ModifyStyle(0,ES_RIGHT);
}
But as you know this is in design mode and....how can i swith between two styles(ES_RIGHT and ES_LEFT) at RUN-TIME ???
this is very important for me.
a beginner in activex programming.
Regards.
