Re: 'System': a namespace with this name does not exist

An error message by itself does not tell us much. What is the context, and are you sure this would not fit better in Managed C++/CLI Discussion Boards[^] ?

Not sure what you mean by "what is the context". Like I said, the project is in a solution with a C#/WPF project and the C++ project now doesn't compile.

I have no clue. But I could move it there.

Again, I have ZERO C++ experience, so I'm really in the dark with all this.

If it's not broken, fix it until it is.

All you have given us is an error message. We have no idea whether this is unmanaged or managed code, what the actual code that causes the error looks like &c.

OK, so here's the lines of code that are failing:

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Reflection;
using namespace System::Runtime::CompilerServices;
using namespace System::Runtime::InteropServices;
using namespace System::Security::Permissions;

This error occurs in the using statements in every C++ file in the project.

It's a .Net 6 project, so I'm assuming it Managed code.

I'm not trying to be difficult, but I just don't know what I'm looking at so it's hard for me to know what to post here.

If it's not broken, fix it until it is.

OK, what you have is managed C++, AKA C++/CLI, which uses .NET. Those using statements are correct and it should build. However since you are converting from the Net Framework you probably need to look at Migrating C++/CLI projects to .NET Core and .NET 5+ - .NET Core | Microsoft Learn[^].

Hi

I have the following

C++

struct tcbholder
	{
		char* tcb;
		char programname[8];
		//	struct stdecs *storageptr;
		struct stdecs stdecsx;
		list <stdecs> strptr;
		list <stdecs>::iterator stfirstptr;
		list <stdecs>::iterator straverse;
	};

C++

struct stdecs
	{
		struct vsmdesc stordesc;
		char* tcb;
		struct blkdesc ablkdescx;
		struct blkdesc fblkdescx;
		//	struct stdecs* nextdecs;
		
		list <blkdesc> ablkptr;
		list<blkdesc>::iterator blktraverse;
		list<blkdesc> fblkptr;
	}

C++

struct blkdesc
	{
		char type;
		int blkaddr;
		int blklen;
		//	struct blkdesc* nextblkdesc;
	};

I declare a list class

C++

list<tcbholder> tcbcollecter;

then a iterator

C++

list <tcbholder>::iterator tcbitrate;

I am able to initialize the main iterator

C++

tcbitrate = tcbcollecter.begin();

However when I try

C++

tcbitrate->straverse = tcbitrate->strptr.begin();

I get the following

C++

_STL_VERIFY(this->_Ptr != _Mycont->_Myhead, "cannot dereference end list iterator");

its in the list member line 151

Dont Understand

Thanks

It means that your "tcbcollecter" list was empty when you assigned the "tcbitrate" iterator. Calling begin() on an empty list will give you the end() iterator, because there is no real element to point to. You can't dereference it because it doesn't point at anything.

ForNow2-Oct-22 22:22

How would I solve this problem would calling tcbitrate->push_back solve it after that there is something on the list though the members of tcbcollector have not been assigned values

Instead of trying to manipulate the contents of these structs from outside I would add member functions to do it.

Was thinking how to that don’t know if it’s practical my list represents the output of VSMLIST z/os assembler mainframe macro representing the amount allocate free and I unallocated storage for an address space
It’s listed by storage blocks ( address and length ) storage descriptors representing a storage subpool which different attributes and storage keys and the TCB task control blocks of the task that own them

If tcbcollecter is empty then the complaint is correct.

I think I finally got it a iterator is for traversing
I first have to populate the list

I’m in bed now with my iPhone I’ll try this again after work

How does terminal created window "connect" to Qt ? - that is the question.

And as so often suggested, that is a question for a QT forum and has nothing to do with C/C++. Unless you can show some actual code and explain (without all the unnecessary orders) what the problem is, there is very little anyone here can do to help you. So try this template:
---------------------------
In the following code, the instruction at line x throws an out of range exception, even though the calculation appears to be correct. blah blah ...

C++

int value = 5;
do
{
// some stuff
} while (values < 10);

---------------------------

That's all we need, not a load of 'instructions' about how we must answer your questions in a form that you think you deserve. Remember, we are all volunteers here and actually do this because we like to help people. What we do not care for is being given orders, especially by those who somehow think we are their employees.

I am sorry, but whatever the people at QT say, this is purely a QT question. Every single line in that code is using a QT command or object so that is where the answer(s) lie.

how to "link " Qt process created terminal window with Qt running application.

Not sure what you mean by that. The started terminal is a separate process, so the only connection between the two is the process id which allows the caller to determine whether the started process is running or not.

I suspect that what's going on is that when you highlight some text in your terminal window, its getting copied to a clipboard in the GUI. Or perhaps its not getting copied and you need to tell the terminal app to copy the text - usually, but not guaranteed to be, CTL-C. Otherwise, you might need to look into the GUI API for accessing contents of the clipboard. Note that many XTerm emulators seem to have 2 independent clipboards. There's one that you get when you merely highlight the text, and which you can then usually paste with middle-button on the mouse. There's also the Cut/Paste (CTL-C/CTL-V) clipboard. The two sometimes seem to be synchronized, but not always. In general, I think you should prefer the Cut/Paste method, as that seems to copy text to the GUI's idea of the clipboard, and is usually what you get back when you Paste. This is all a bit hand-wavy, because it seems like there's no hard and fast rules about what gets copied where during a highlight and/or a Copy/Paste.

Keep Calm and Carry On

When you highlight text in a terminal it can usually then be copied by some keystrokes or menu option. That is fairly standard throughout Windows, MacOS and Linux. You can then paste it into another running application (e.g. the QT process that launched the terminal), but as far as I am aware you still need to do it manually. If you want direct connection between a calling and called process, then the called process needs to be a console type application. You can then connect the stdout of the called process to stdin of the caller, so the caller can read what the called process writes. The QProcess documentation explains how to do it.
