Are you using MFC? CMainFrame doesn't have a graphical interface, so the answer is NO.

Worked for me. I don't know if the size is correct or not but I got 4096 for the directory size. All I did was change the path to one that's on my computer. I'm running Windows 7, VC++ 2008 Express if that matters.

That is Wal-Mart this year -- no Christmas music and no Christmas tree at the front doors. Its really sad that Wal-Mart isn't in the Christmas spirit this year.

What compiler did you use? I compiled it with vc++ 2008 Express and got a lot of warnings about using uninitialized variables. Pay close attention to your compiler's warnings because they are often actual errors. [edit]I compiled it with Code::Blocks (with MinGW) and it does not produce the warnings about …

Nobody is just going to give you all that code. First you have to decide what the program will do -- design the menus, screen layouts, etc. Write it down on paper so that you don't get confused. Once you are finished with that then you can begin to write …

You might write a database program, such as a DVD/CD maintenance using an SQL database such as [URL="http://www.sqlite.org/"]SqLite[/URL]. You will have to learn [URL="http://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&channel=s&hl=en&source=hp&q=sql+tutorial&btnG=Google+Search"]SQL language[/URL].

Post what you can do and ask questions about what you can not do. Also tell us what compiler you are using. [code] #include <stdio.h> int main() { // write our program here } [/code]

Make sure you compile the program(s) for release, not debug. You might also have to install one or more of Microsoft's dlls, they are located in a folder called redist in the compiler's install directory. On my computer they are here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\redist\x86\Microsoft.VC90.CRT

>>but does not seem to work... What doesn't work? Do you get compiler errors? If yes then post the first few errors.

>>why not 4 bytes. You answered your own question in the first sentence you posted. Because 5 * sizeof(int) = 5 * 4 = 20. Simple grade-school math.

Why do you want to save the output to a file just to understand return codes? The return code from system() is pretty much useless -- all it indicates is whether system() successfully ran the command or not. It says nothing about the program that system() ran. If you need …

scnaf with %d will only accept numeric data -- anything else is ignored and scanf() does not change the value of the input parameter. Check the return value to see if scanf() successfuly converted any data.

For some really big challenges designed for people of all experience levels see [URL="http://www.programmingforums.org/forum64.html"]Sane's Monthly Algorithm Challenges here[/URL]. I have made the three most recent challenges stickies so that they can be easily found.

You can write files anywhere you want to on your computer as long as your login account has permissions to do that. For example [icode]newfile.open("c:\\dvlp\\test\\exemplu.txt");[/icode]

you first need to learn how to build a windows gui program. [URL="http://www.winprog.org/tutorial/"]Here is a tutorial[/URL] to get you started.

>>Here's a question for you. Not for me -- I already know how to do that.

If your target os supports standard iostreams then I'd use it. win32 api is very low level and supports only binary files -- yes text files can be written as binary files but using std::fstream makes it a lot easier.

Help you do what??

why are you doing that the hard way, such as one character at a time, when there are much faster, easier, and less error-prone ways, such as fscanf() . If your instructor requires you to do it that way, then do it. Otherwise you have just wasted how many hours??

You are suggesting a blackball list? Or a hit list? Just because someone doesn't mark the thread solved, reply, or post a thank-you doesn't mean your post was not helpful or unread. Of all the 10 thousand threads I have posted in only 1500 of them were marked solved, or …

Its not possible to delete just the parent -- when you delete the child then parent gets deleted too. Both parent and child form a single object, not two.

IMO phthon is a toy that non-programmer hobbyists use, in the same category as Quick Basic. C/C++ is used by professional programmers to write real professional programs.

In the while loop you need to change variable [b]i[/b] to something else because that while loop is destroying the value of [b]i[/b] that the for loop is supposed to increment. Copy the value of [b]i[/b] into another variable, such as [b]k[/b] and use [b]k[/b] in that while loop.

If you want to write your own, you will probably want to study [URL="http://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&channel=s&hl=en&source=hp&q=yacc&btnG=Google+Search"]yacc[/URL] (Yet Another Compiler Compiler)

lines 57 and 58: you do not have to initialize the arrays one letter at a time -- just do the entire string at one time [code] char currentWord[] = "......"; /* The dot word */ char guessWord[] = "monkey"; /* The word that needs to be guessed */ [/code] …

Get row: you will have to sequentially read each line of the file in order to get to the row you want. Delete row: rewrite the entire file, omitting the row to be deleted. Open two files: input file is the file that contains the row to be deleted, the …

There are two ways to add a library to the program 1) [icode]#pragma comment(lib, "toolkit.lib"); [/icode] Put this near the top of any *.cpp file that is in the project. 2) Select menu item Project --> Properties --> Configuration Properties --> Linker -->Input. Now add the name of the library …

You can't [b]draw[/b] to a text file. I don't know what your game looks like, but if it contains a 2d array called a Board [code] char Board[5][5]; // write to a file ofstream out("save1.bin", ios::binary); out.write(Board, sizeof(Board)); // read from file ifstream in("save1.bin", ios::binary); out.read(Board, sizeof(Board)); [/code]

The term "[URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precompiled_header"]precompiled headers[/URL]" means something completely different than what you are trying to do. You are tring to create a library of functions/classes that can be used in other projects. All you really need in those other projects is the *.h and *.o (or *.obj) files.

What I would do is sort each of the words and then just compare them. Example: orchestra and carthorse would both become acehorst. Don't use string leterals do so this because they can not be changed.

>>can ypu help me? Yes. But first you need to post the code you have tried to solve the problem. We are not a program manufacturer.

post code. Works ok for me [code] #include <conio.h> #include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() { int c; while( (c = getch()) != EOF) cout << (char)c << " "; } [/code]

I didn't get any errors compililing those headers with VC++ 6.0 [code] #include "stdafx.h" #include "iostream" #include<string> #include<vector> #include<algorithm> #include<cmath> using namespace std; inline void keep_window_open() {char ch; cin>>ch; } int main(int argc, char* argv[]) { return 0; } [/code]

If you live in the USA why not have everything shipped from amazon to your house, then you bundle all the books up and ship them to K however you wish. Everything from Amazon may or may not be shipped at the same time.

[code] int* A = new int[10]; // dynamic array int A[10]; // simple array [/code] If you want the explanation in words, then I'd suggest you look them up in your text book.

You can erase an element from the map, but you can't delete just one of the pointers because it belongs to an array. If you allocate the pointers one at a time then you could delete them in any order you want. [code] map<int,particle*> particle_map; for(i==0;i<number_of_particles;i++) { particle_map[i] = new …
