fflush(stdin) is non-standard and not supported by many compilers. fflush is used to force the operating system to write everything to the output stream. Since stdin is an input stream and not an output stream fflush(stdin) may or may not work, depending on what comiler you use.

what compiler are you using? what operating system? what are the error messages?

Here is one way to prevent duplicates BTW: assert() does nothing when the program is compiled for release mode instead of debug mode. [code] void uniquebag::insert(const value_type& entry) { assert(size () < CAPACITY); // check if the number already exists in the array bool found = false; for (size_type i=0; …

There is no such thing as "Non Ansi C Standard". If its not in the Ansi C Standard then it must be, by definition, non-ansi C.

The same way you would do it in a normal c++ program. [code] #include <vector> int main() { std::vector<int> array; } [/code] MFC has a lot of container classes, and depending on what you want to do, they may or may not be better than std::vector or std::list. Your compiler …

Your avatar looks ok to me.

So, you want to send something to a printer? What operating system? Is the printer connected directly to your computer or is it located on a network? Lazer printer or line printer?

use fgets() to read a line, then for each line you can use strtok() to tokenize it, then atol() to convert from char* to int. Another way is to use strtol() in a loop. Example [code] int main() { char line[] = "12 23 34 45"; char* ptr; int n1[4]; …

Are you talking about precompiled header files? Both Microsoft's VC++ 2010 (and earlier versions too) and g++ support that (other compilers might too, I don't know). You have to create a header file that includes other header files as well as function prototypes, constants, classes, structures and externs. Then you …

Freeky -- again, that code requires the use to hit the Enter key Nishinoran: since your program is already using kbhit() when the program returns to the place to begin getting keys from the keyboard you can flush all the keys with another loop using kbhit [code] while( kbhit() ) …

OMG I hope he is not taking a college course ;) A better way to write that. Note that you don't need all those C header files. [code] #include <string> int main() { for(int i = 0; i < 1000; i++) { std::cout << i << '\n'; } std::cin.get(); return …

Yes of course its possible. All you have to do is rewrite the entire file [code] open input file for read open temp output file for writing for read line read from input file remove what you want from the line write the rest to the output file close both …

you can not use strcat() on the pointer returned by [URL="http://www.warpspeed.com.au/cgi-bin/inf2html.cmd?..%5Chtml%5Cbook%5CToolkt40%5CXPG4REF.INF+148"]getcwd[/URL]() because _getcwd() allocates a buffer only large enough to hold the path. You need to allocate a second buffer that is large enough to hold the string returned by _getcwd() and the string you need to add. The second …

WinZip can not read that *.zip file.

It might be safer to use a union, such as [URL="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms221627(v=VS.80).aspx"]VARIANT[/URL].Your structure does not have to be that complicated [code] typedef struct { int type; union { char cVal; int iVal; float fVal; } val; }AnyVal; int main() { AnyVal val; val.type = TYPE_FLOAT val.val.fVal = 0.0F; } [/code]

This is c++ forum, not C. Here is one way to do it, but I doubt that is that you really want. [code] int main() { cout << 3 << '\n'; cout << 323 << '\n'; cout << 32123 << '\n'; cout << 323 << '\n'; cout << 3 << …

The program will not stop if there are still keystroks in the keyboard buffer, such as if you previously called scanf() to get an integer the '\n' will still be in the keyboard buffer. But you will have to post your program for anyone to give you more help with …

You don't link the dll -- only the *.lib. One way to do it is by using pragma [icode]#pragma comment(lib,"mydll.lib") [/icode] Replace mydll.lib with whatever you named it. You will have to put the dll in either the program's current working directory or one of the folders specified in the …

Variable x is not being changed inside that loop, so it will print the same value of x to the file 20 times.

[code] void City::setNextCity(City city) { nextCities->push_back(&city); }; [/code] You can't do it like that because the parameter is a copy of City class, and will be destroyed as soon as setNextCity() exits.

Making the file "read only" will NOT prevent an external application or the user from changing or deleting it. It mearly makes it more inconvenient. External applications or the user can always change the file permissions to read/write and either change the file's contents or delte it. If you want …

The first line just declares a variable of type std::string The second line causes all keyboard input up to the '\n' (carriage return) to be sent to the string object. So if you typed "Hello World" <Return key> then the string subChoice would contain "Hello World". Copy and paste this …

Also maybe your comnputer has too little RAM. It needs at least 2 gig. Check the amount of free hard drive space available. The OS will get very slow if the hard drive is nearly full.

What version of MS-Windows? The program has to have permissions to start services.

Programmers use [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Include_guard"]code guards, sometimes called include [/URL]guards, to avoid the problems with double inclusions. You will find them used in almost (if not all) the standard header files that are installed with your compiler. When used, they would prevent the problem like the example presented by evstevemd, above.

You mean like this? [code] #include <conio.h> #include <iostream> using std::cout; using std::cin; int main() { char c; while(true) { cout << "Enter a character\n"; c = getche(); if( islower(c) ) cout << "\nLower\n"; else cout << "\nNot lower\n"; } } [/code]

No. Windows win32 api functions require a 32-bit compiler. Turbo C is a 16-bit compiler. Come into the 21st century and get either free Code::Blocks or vc+ 2010 Express.
