<0> what's wrong with line 23 ?
<1> DrkMatter: I tried the memcpy(temparray+1, array1, size); WHen I tried to display the array it is coming up with invalid values.
<2> corstan: Where's the code?
<0> DrkMatter, did you look at the link?
<2> All there is at this link are error codes.
<0> sorry
<0> http://rafb.net/paste/results/UtIhLR32.html
<0> I get this: error: invalid types `const double[int]' for array subscript
<2> const double& array
<2> YouR'e p***ing ina reference to a const double.
<2> It's not ana rray.
<2> Hence, you can't sue the subscript operator on it.
<2> Noid858: LEt em look at your code again, I guess.
<0> what should I p*** then?
<0> just the array
<3> the array and the number of elements in it
<3> as a pointer
<2> You should p*** an array, or a pointer.
<0> ok, that works
<3> I don't understand why you need these functions
<2> Noid585: The "sieze" you are p***ing is a plain int
<0> why can't I p*** a reference, isn't that what is normally done?
<2> You should p*** size * sizeof(int).
<1> just did that =) didn't work still
<0> Debugger, because I use older C code which uses double arrays instead of STL cl*** objects
<1> Can you try compiling my code and see if it does the same for you as it does for me.. You'll understand better what's happening.. I create the array with 2 elements for "size", I display the array to make sure it worked. I go to insert to the front of the array type a value and then it displays the temparray with incorrect values.
<2> I don'T really ahve tiem for that, Noid858
<3> Is memory in a valarray contiguous like std::vector?
<2> Do you ahve a debugger, Noi858?
<3> If that's the case, it'd be easy
<1> Yes I'm using visual studio
<0> Debugger, you mean successive elements?
<3> yes, if that's the case, just cast the vector
<2> Try debugging your app. Check what's in the memory location before and after the memcpy.
<0> Debugger, didn't think of that, but I am just being safe and doing this through specialized inline functions
<2> Noid858: Make sure that array1 as the correct values before the copy.
<1> It does. THe problem exists with the memcpy command for sure.
<1> I got it to work
<1> Thanks for the help DrkMatter
<2> No problems. What was the problem?
<4> yo what's the best book for leanring visual C++ 2005 if you dont have much or any progrimmag exp
<3> Accelerated c++
<1> Drk: The problem was that I had memcpy backwards. Its destination, source and size
<2> Ah...
<4> guys is the C++ from visual studio 2005 the same as 2003, 2002, and 6.0?
<2> More or less.
<2> It is C++, but the later compilers are mroe standardd compliant.
<5> less bugs
<2> So, technically, VS 2005 is MORE C++ish than VS 6.0
<1> Hmm so weird. I don't have to delete [] array1 if I want to insert a new value into the array?? I thought arrays are not dynamically resizeable
<4> ok well i need something to teach me c++ w/ visual studio 2005 professional and i've just started programming
<4> is a 2003 guide or a fairly old book as vlaid?
<4> valid?
<4> like, msv c++ 2003 good for 2005 ms
<6> http://www.cprogramming.com/tutorial/lesson1.html
<4> er 2003 guide for 2005?
<5> lol
<5> Zelotes, C++ is the same
<5> if you want to know how to use the IDE just press F1
<4> so anyone here who has been programming for MANY years?
<6> indeed
<5> I'm afraid to check my todo list... I have a really nice feeling that I've finished everything for this week and I don't want to ruin it
<5> of course...
<2> Noid858: Arrays are -not- dynamically resizable.
<2> Well, wait.
<2> It's been too long since I've done this kind of thigns.
<1> Drk: I thought so too but I got rid of my delete [] array1, int* array1 = new int[newsize] and it worked. It is adding new elements to array1 without needing to be redeclared as a larger size.
<5> lol
<2> C++ odens't do bound checks for you
<4> so anyone here who's been doing C++ for yeatrs
<2> *doesn't
<2> If you write over memory you do not own, you might cause a system crash.
<5> delete []
<2> So what you're doing compiels, and MAY run fine, but it is incorrect.
<5> use delete [] when you use new type[xx]
<1> array1 is a pointer to an array so I tried delete [] array1 and it crashes :(
<5> and it doesn't matter that the compiler "might" see what you're tring to do and fix it for you
<5> if you compile the same code on a diffrent compiler it might not work
<5> *trying
<2> Noid858: delete [] for new []. If it crashes, then you did somethign wrong with the pointers.
<2> Possibly, you ***igned array1 a new value without noticing.
<1> Drk: but I don't have to specify which [] I"m deleting? How does it know if I'm deleting array1 or temparray?
<2> Huh?
<2> delete [] array1 <-- Delete array1. delete[] temparray -- delete temparray.
<1> Let me describe what is going on. So I basically have 2 pointers to integer arrays. array1 and temparray. I ***ign array1 some values, then I select a function to insert a value into the front of temparray. I then try to delete [] array1 and the program crashes with a heap exception.
<2> Well, the way you put it...
<2> 1. You cannot"insert" a value if the array is full wihtout going overbound.
<2> 2. There shouldn't be any crash when calling delete. You must be doing something wrong in between.
<1> Sorry I forgot to include the fact that I define temparray to be a size one larger than array1 and I memcpy the contents of array1 into temparray.
<2> Well, you should post your updated code, it'd give us(me) a better idea.
<1> http://www.noidea128.org/sourcefiles/15909.html
<1> Ignore the actual function called int *&insert_f_array(int *&thearray, int s, int v) at the bottom
<1> All my inserting is happening in case(2)
<4> so uh
<4> basically im trying to create an overhead rpg kind of like final fantasy 6 or similar snes rpgs
<4> i can use tiles and sprites from those kinda games, but what i think i really need is basic programming knowledge
<4> what language is best for an snes rpg: c++ or basic?
<7> Are you actually writing for the SNES?
<4> no
<8> wasn't most snes development done in snes ***embly?
<4> it's PC
<8> (i might be wrong)
<8> then why did you say "snes rpg" ?
<7> There are some RPG creation tools
<8> "snes" isn't "pc"
<7> Drop in your tiles and sprites and rules and such
<4> i said LIKE an snes rpg
<7> rdragon, he meant rpg in the style of some of the snes rpg's
<8> no, you said "for"
<7> Don't make me otter you
<4> ya
<7> !
<4> no i can't do that, because the rpg is more of a personal rpg, it's part snes style rpg but also there's a database attached to it and other things
<8> lol
<7> That was uncool :(
<9> whatever, we all had a good laugh.
<8> Zelotes - you just want to make a tile based game?
<7> Heh
<4> well i believe snes is tile based so yeah
<8> well, i would suggest C++ over basic for anything besides modifying Gorillas
<4> tiles, with sprites (and my sprite changes)
<4> i want characters to move back in forth like in ff
<8> www.gamedev.net has a bunch of resources, and forums, etc
<4> im thinking a tile-based game has something to do with using a grid similar to excel, with each tile taking up a certain amount of space
<8> sure
<4> then programming each grid to work a certain way and allow the character to work a certain way? is that close?
<4> and have it all work in suhc a way that it looks similar to an snes rpg
<8> well, are you thinking top-down or side-scroller?
<4> top-view yeah
<4> the kinda game where you see their heads for the most part with a little bit of the body
<8> if top-down, you'll likely have some kind of grid-based map, and informatino for each tile: the image, whether it can be walked on, whether it triggers some event, what object is occupying it, etc
<1> Can anyone take a look at http://www.noidea128.org/sourcefiles/15910.html and let me know why my delete [] array1; in case (2): is causing a heap corruption error in Visual Studio 2005 Pro?
<8> Noidea why aren't you just using a vector?
<4> yeah
<4> snes rpg seems a lot easie to make then those 3d ff7 type things
<1> rdragon: Teacher is requiring to do it by scratch. No STL
<9> What?
<9> I am using vectors!
<9> I swear!
<9> I use them all the time!
<8> er, lol
<9> Just today I changed 2 lists to vectors!
<8> Noid858 well this is silly.. you should just mimic the operations of a vector... none of this new[1] and memcpy nonsense
<4> ok
<4> so i should go w/ c++ instead of visual basic for making a rpg game of snes quality?
<8> surely
<9> the world really needs another Ultima 7
<9> that was the pinnacle of video game development right there
<5> I would do it like that, in a separate header
<9> it's been downhill ever since.
