Weird (?) problem using std::list ... Hi!
I have a class called anItem which is defined something like this :
ok should be enough. Constructor/Destructor are empty.
At another place I use this class as a template for a std::list.
I can add and get items from that list without any problem, UNLESS I do the following.
If I add another Item to the anItem-class, it only works if it is not a CString type.
Examples :
above is OK!
Runtime Error ("Memory could not be read.").
Does any of you have an idea what the problem here is?
I am using MS Visual C++ 6.0; this is used in an MFC application.
Thanks!

I'll assume it's "something" like that rather than exactly like that because that class won't compile (no trailing semicolon) and even if it did would be unusable because all of the data members are private with no way to access them.
>Runtime Error ("Memory could not be read.").
Step through your code, and find out exactly when this happens and what you're doing at the time. Debugging remotely is difficult enough when the problem isn't vague.

youre right, sorry. here is the actual class :
so what happens is that the app crashes as soon as i compile with the comment removed and CString lspec is an attribute of the class.
Any Ideas anyone??
class DataTreeItem
{
public:
DataTreeItem();
virtual ~DataTreeItem();
CString projectpath;
CString spec;
CString name;
char local[1024];
//CString lspec;
int size;
int type;
long version;
long checkedout;
HTREEITEM treeitem;
IVSSItem * vssitem;
};so what happens is that the app crashes as soon as i compile with the comment removed and CString lspec is an attribute of the class.
Any Ideas anyone??

Define 'crash'.
>Any Ideas anyone??
No, because you're still not giving enough information. At this point, post a small program that exhibits the problem so that we can debug it personally rather than play twenty questions with you.

So this doesn't run:
but this does:
It looks like a CString is equivalent to a char*. In that case, you need to allocate memory dynamically for it or use a char array.
Your best bet would be to use a string, from <string>. They automatically resize themselves.
CString bad; bad[999] = 'a';
char good[10000]; good[999] = 'a';

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
int main(void) {
string name;
std::cout << "Enter your name: ";
std::cin >> name;
std::cout << "Hello, " << name << '!' << std::endl;
return 0;
} dwk
