My exact thoughts  .. for all piratical purposes the exception has been handed inside the catch block and the propagation stops there!
What remains is how the code execute after this point!
Also as someone said, it's better to throw the object on the stack rather than on the heap and have to deleted it after!

I had to reread the docs about stack-based exception objects to refresh my mind on the scope of
those objects when they're thrown (see my question to toxcct).
A copy is made if it's caught by value - that's what I forgot 
_NightOwl_ wrote: What remains is how the code execute after this point!
"If a matching catch handler is found, and it catches by value, its formal parameter is
initialized by copying the exception object. If it catches by reference, the parameter is
initialized to refer to the exception object. After the formal parameter is initialized, the
process of unwinding the stack begins. This involves the destruction of all automatic objects
that were constructed (but not yet destructed) between the beginning of the try block associated
with the catch handler and the exception's throw site. Destruction occurs in reverse order of
construction. The catch handler is executed and the program resumes execution following the last
handler (that is, the first statement or construct which is not a catch handler). "

Mark, yes a copy is always made for all automatic types when passing it around, in fact a copy is made when the object is thrown and placed onto the stack
you just have to vision the exception floating up and backwards through the call chain! Once it's caught by a handler, execution will continue as you found out at the very next statement outside the scope of the catch block. Using a reference means one extra step is spared of not having to copy the exception off the stack and into the catch handler parameter.That slipped my mind till your last note reminded me! and I see your earlier confusion about an object going out of scope before use

Hi everybody!
I've got a big problem. It would be nice if someone could help me. Thanking you in advance.
I have created 4 tab windows as normal dialog boxes, then I can link those dialogs to the Tab control (using the code given at this website:http://www.codeproject.com/tabctrl/SimpleTab.asp.
In each dialog box, I've got some child controls like : Edit box, check box, button, combo box...
Now, I really want to read data, or to get data , even to exchange data between the different dialogs. How can I make it?
Thanks for your answer anyway.

p1 = new CTabPageOne();
p1->Create(IDD_DIALOG_PAGE1,m_ctrlTAB.GetWindow(IDD_DIALOG_PAGE1));
p2 = new CTabPageTwo();
p2->Create(IDD_DIALOG_PAGE2,m_ctrlTAB.GetWindow(IDD_DIALOG_PAGE2));
You have in your main dialog two pointers to your 2 tabs.
So you have a lot of possibilities to exchange data.
For example if you enter a text in a Textbox in Tab1, it should be also entered in Tab2 :
The Main Dialog has the pointers to the Tabs, and each Tab has a pointer to his parent (the Main Dialog)
Now you can make it like this :
CString str;
this->textbox1.GetWindowText(str);
Home->p2->SetValueIntoBox1(str);
where you have a function at tab 2 called CTabPageTwo::SetValueIntoBox1(CString val) which stores
the text into the textbox 1
You even can make a Data-structure which carries all the date to exchange ...
Good luck
Regards

Hello Guys,
i am Vishwanath Patil. i was previously worked on networking technologies SNMP. but now i am working on VC++ and MFC. so i am completely new to these technologies, so i want to learn about these technologies. so if any one who has some good books or sites where it will help for beginners then please replay me.
thanks,

MFC is kind of dead compared to a few years ago ( not that it's absolutely dead, of course ). This is probably the best site to ask MFC questions. As far as books go, I'd think you'd find a lot of used books on ebay cheap, for the same reason.
Depending on your background ( do you already know C++ ? ), you may find that downloading MFC articles from this site and experimenting with them is a good place to start. If you don't know C++, learn C++ first, then learn MFC on top of that. What books are good for C++ depends again on your background. If this is your first language, I'd start slow with something like 'teach yourself C++ in 24 hours'. If you have a background in other languages, you may be able to jump right into 'The C++ programming language' by Bjarne Stroustrup.

There are a lot of good book about VC++/MFC programming, for instance, have a look at
Jeff Prosise's one [^].

Unfortunately, I can't remember the name of the best book I've read on MFC. It approached it by explaining HOW MFC works, not simply how to code to it. I found it very helpful to use the debugger to step into MFC classes and have been through about 90% of the MFC source.
Above all, experiment!
Anyone who thinks he has a better idea of what's good for people than people do is a swine.

Dude I like your style of how you announced your name and presence ..who does that
As for your question if you already know how to program using Win32 APIs then MFC will be a snap for you to pick up as most of the classes are wrappers around the primitive types.
If you don't know any Win32 programming then I suggest you understand the basic plumbing, and a good book for that is the Charles Petzold book ..Also whatever you do don't pick up one of those god awful big red wrox book, simply trash! I have an old MFC book by Jeff prosise on windows 95!!! Ha, if you can get your hand on a copy or a later release then it's definitely worth the read, excellent coverage of what you need to know about MFC from start to finish. Trust me when I say not much as changed since then...thanks to MS for leaving us C++ developers out in the cold while the C# .Net folks get all the cool libraries and we're still in the stone ages of having to write routines from scratch!!! Ahhh I want to cry man..... See what you gone done now sonny, I am all bent out of shape trying to answer your question!!! Are you HAPPY now, Hugh, Mr. Vishwanath Patil .... ok me joke!

Hi,
Is there any standard for return values from a function, for example if my function returns only two value(true/false) then i would like to assign bool as its return value, but if i have got three values(0,1,2), then what data type should be the used as return value.
Best Regards,

you have plenty of types. if the function may return little integers, char is good enough. but short, int, long are possible choices.
|
|
|
|
|
If the function may return only a small set of integers (such as {0,1,2}) then the enum type is a good choiche. Usually you can assign to each member of the set a meanigful name:
enum TrustLevel
{
LOW = 0,
AVERAGE,
HIGH
};
If the Lord God Almighty had consulted me before embarking upon the Creation, I would have recommended something simpler.

return int . so you can return up to 2 billion.

i want to load, view an image(any jpg,bmp,gif) to my program. the picture will be view after i click some number and the picture will be assign to that number only..
i try to use 'swicth', but then i only manage to click number but don't know how to assign picture to that number..

You can use of CImage class for load bmp,jpg,gif,png.
CImage m_Image;
m_Image.Load(your file);

where should i put that code?
i've try to put in like this, but it get error.
<br />
void test(int z){<br />
<br />
CImage m_Image;<br />
<br />
cout << "You have press " << z << endl ;<br />
switch (z)<br />
{<br />
case 1 : cout << "Picture 1 is\n":<br />
m_Image.Load(pic1.jpg);<br />
<br />
break;<br />
.........<br />
....}<br />
