Hey, what Cedric said is called "polymorphism", which works only when you use pointers to reference objects. So this would call the overridden method:
YourBaseClass *p = new YourDerivedClass();
p->SomeFunction();
But this wouldn't:
YourBaseClass obj;
obj.SomeFunction();
Best,
Jun

Beware Active Derived Class member will receive the call!

Hi
Can anyone give me any guide lines as web searches have been unsucessful
I want to be able to save input from a console application to a text file.
eg: if a user inputs their "name" via cin on the console, how do you save the name to a text file.
I have just started learning if/ofstream classes and have a basic understanding, so if you could show me some examples of the code to save the input to a text file I would be grateful. Also I wish to append new data to the same file so if you could also advise me if the use of "ios::app" is the correct way of doing this without over writing old data.
Thanks in advance.

To use ofstream the way you specified:
char name[20] = {0};
ofstream fout;
fout.open("mylog.log", ios::app);
cin >> name;
fout << name;
fout.close();
If you decide to become a software engineer, you are signing up to have a 1/2" piece of silicon tell you exactly how stupid you really are for 8 hours a day, 5 days a week

You can create .cpp file without workspace. But as mentioned earlier, thats not what you required.

if you use VisualC++ (whatever vesion), you must create a workspace (or a solution, both appelations are same depending on the IDE). otherwise, you'll have to use the command line to call the compiler/linker yourself, but i don't advise you to, because if you are new, yo go directly to the headaches !!
creating a new project is not a that difficult task. take few minutes to experiment the IDE.

Well you can create such a file simple by choosing New/File in the File menu, but i don't think thats what you want. It really depends on what kind of Application/Library etc. you want to create. The simplest i think is to create a new Project from the Win32 Console Application Template. Just use File/New/Project, then choose Win32 Console Application under Visual C++ Projects and enter a project name, then hit ok. Next window hit OK again, default options should suffice for now. In your project explorer (usually on the right side) you will find a .cpp file with the name of your project. This file contains an empty body of the main function. You can write your code here. Then hit Strg+F5 to execute.
So much for a short total beginners tutorial. Hope that was helpfull and not too low

the OP wants an MFC project, not Win32 console 
|
|
|
|

I help to you first what do you need? if see in File->New you can create many projects but it seems that you are new so you can create a MFC Application and next step in Application Type use Dialog based and click Finish button for compile in Debug menu select->Start Without Debugging.
If you have any problem maybe i can help to you

Hi all,
I want to change the font of a control, specifically CListView control, I know how to create a font, and how to select it into a device context, lets assume that my font is ready to use (MyFont), in what dc should I select it???
I have tried:
MyListView.GetDC()->SelectObject(&MyFont);
and
MyListView.GetListCtrl().GetDC()->SelectObject(&MyFont);
and neither of them works!!! so whats the problem?????????
And ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation

Have you tried the SetFont() method?

I am working on SDI application that creates a modeless dialog, the problem is that modeless dialog always remains in foreground, even if i click on the title bar of the sdi frame. I have set style of sdi frame window to WS_EX_TOPMOST but it donot works for modeless dialog. How can i bring modeless dialog to the back of Z order, SetWindowPosition also do not work. It looks that windows always puts modeless dialog in forground of main window. how this default behaviour can be changed.

Create the dialog as child of the desktop (GetDesktopWindow()) instead of the main application window ...
