No one has any idea?

start of rant:
MSDN Forums are dead, no one is using J#, my lecturer is useless.. why force us to use this language with such limited support docs, examples, etc...

Hi, I have this issue with a J# project I need to complete for uni.

public class Sprite
{
private Image m_image;

public Sprite(Image image)
{
m_image = image;
}

BIG EDIT:

so sorry, I know see that I was debugging the wrong source file, not the updated one. Your algorithm works perfectly, can't thank you enough :-)

I'm going to read up on string streams...

As you can see I'm still getting my head round pointers, particularly in terms of arrays and dynamic memory allocation.

From your suggestions I just corrected the prototype declaration to return a...

To get better help than this response you'd probably want to mention which version of dev-cpp you're trying, what operating system you're using, and you'd likely want to direct your questions to the...

Hi,
Firstly, this is Win32 console related, otherwise I'd be reading up on the ncurses library..

My program is updating name:value pairs like Name:John

I wish to use WriteConsoleInput to...

that seems pretty smart, I'm giving it ago :-)

Just noticed your avatar
You should meet my lecturer - we're always pulling him up over the void main()s

Hi,
I am storing strings in '|' delimited format in a text file. Each new line represents a new record.
for instance |Name|Age|Favcolour|
|Name2|Age2|Favcolour2|

I'm using a string vector to...

You know it's funny, you've totally spun things I was semi-confident about on their head...
Thanks a million!

But seriously... I need to find some better literature...
My 'beginners guide' is...

I know this is probably daft, but wasn't I including the same header file multiple times in drawScr.cpp and main.cpp?

I was sure that was the point of the preprocessor directives #ifndef etc... back to the books for me, I think :-)



Thanks, it really does. I obviously need to revisit the chapters on pointers...

Hi,
Despite triple checking my code for duplication and checking that the headers include #ifndef I still can't trace what is causing this error message:

drawscr.o(.bss+0x0):drawscr.cpp: multiple...

I did read about all the modifiers etc of the string class, here: http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/string/string/

Just my lecturer in uni never wrote in his notes that I had to have using...

While watching the newstr value in VS debugger,
after newstr[j] = ' ';
the string was updated to be the same length as str and had {" ÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌÌ"} as it's value.
(First charcter is a space...

Still having problems, and the culprit is definelty the string.erase modifier.
Does this modifier have to be called by reference ( I mean by a pointer to a string) and the other statements like...

Use if (isspace(ch)) to move past whitespaces. Then when find next non whitespace character, copy a space, then the character, then move on?

Hi, me again!

I wish to tidy up strings from user input. I have done a bit of research and have most of this working except the tricky bit - converting all/any whitespace between words to 1 ' '...

HI Narue,

Sorry I didn't mean to ask you to hold my hand.
For now I'll leave it as it is and see how it bears under testing.

I just shoved this in place of the 1st if(...) break;
if...

What site are you talking about?

is the recursive function the if inside the do...while?

That's working but if the idea is a bad one , let me know :-)

sorry my mistake when typing it in.


OK so I will return a date of 00000000 instead of the first break, does that seem like the correct way out of this?

Thinking the problem is maybe trying to return a Date which hasn't any values. So maybe I should replace the first break, with a return - but how would I return a blank date?

hi,
I'm checking a date is valid as it's typed in, however I always want to allow the user to skip with a CR.

The while condition is causing my program to crash when str_date.length()==0 (I...

I know I marked this as solved, but if I used the istringstream method, how would I then split the integer into individual ints for d, m & y?

I'm stupid, and can see how to do it,

atoi(dob.substr(2,3).c_str());

sorry everyone ! :-)

Hi I wish to break up a date entered as a string into ints for day, month, year.
String to be entered follows this convention DDMMYYYY - this will be checked so we can presume it's suitable.

I...
