Is there a way to append to global unordered_map from C++ file on compilation?
The problem I want to make a little module system for my project, which will basically be a base class that users may extend with their code, include in the main project and be able to use this module in runtime. E.g. we have a Renderer module, the base class defines all the mandatory functions to implement: class Rend...
If you are using C++17 you could use a static inline (otherwise useless) member variable in some class to make sure the function is called, e.g. like this: class Foo { static inline void * bar_ = AppendVkRenderer(); }; But you might have to modify parts of your code to make sure s_RendererModules is initialized be...

What is the problem with fill() here ? I used normal for loop for assigning NULL and it worked , with fill() it was giving error
The code below is a Trie implementation in C++. Kindly checkout what is the problem in using fill(). And if any suggestions improving my implementation are welcome Commented fill() in the TrieNode constructor function function is giving compile time error as mentioned in the snippet .

First, we convert your code tor a MRE. #include <iostream> #include <vector> #include <string> #include <algorithm> class TrieNode { public: std::vector<TrieNode*>vec; bool end; TrieNode() { vec.resize(26); end = false; std::fill(vec.begin() , vec.end(), NULL); // did not worked } b...

Calling a C file in C++ is giving errors

It seems you want to write code in plain C and then have the split function callable from C++. Then you first of all need to make sure to build the source as plain C, which includes making sure the source file have a .c suffix, and not contain any C++ code (like the extern "C" part, or C++ header files like <cstring>)....

Why is my iterator not std::input_iterator?
Why doesn't the iterator below satisfy std::input_iterator concept? What did I miss? template <class T> struct IteratorSentinel {}; template <class T> class Iterator { public: using iterator_category = std::input_iterator_tag; using value_type = T; using difference_type = std::ptrdiff_t; using poin...
Your operator* is not const-qualified. The std::input_iterator concept (through the std::indirectly_readable concept) requires that * can be applied to both const and non-const lvalues as well as rvalues of the type and that in all cases the same type is returned.

C++ keywords: char8_t (since C++20) As far as I understand char8_t is of char type as is your std::string. A simple cast should work.

Why does `LD_DEBUG=libs` fail to display a library that loaded in an application?
Background: I am trying to discover where libqbscore.so is loaded from, and when it happens. When I set LD_DEBUG=libs and run the program, /bin/qtcreator, I do not find libqbscore.so amidst the debug. If however, I set LD_PRELOAD=/path/to/libqbscore.so, then I will start finding its occurences in the output. Question: ...
It's because the qtcreator process does not load the libqbscore.so. The qbs child process loads it. Because Qt Creator and Qbs are open source projects, their interactions can be analyzed by analyzing the source codes.

How to create a common range?

Your range is built out of an iterator/sentinel pair. The definition of a common range is a range where the sentinel type is an iterator. So the range itself is not a common range. common_view can generate a common range from a non-common range. Which means that it will have to create two iterators. And since it starts...

SDL_DrawRect() does not draw a proper rect

It seems like I solved the problem by changing from the Flatpak version of CLion to the native one installed from the JetBrains toolbox. The problem only occurs when I run the compiled executable from inside CLion, so I think it's a CLion problem. I reported the problem to JetBrains here.

Override std::tuple serializing functionality in boost::json
boost::json::tag_invoke works fine with structs, but is totally ignored with std::tuple.

These functions are found via ADL. With std::tuple<double, double, int>, only overloads in the std:: namespace are searched, which your overload is not in, so it isn't found. Boost suggests to either put it where ADL can find it, or in the boost:: namespace if not possible. So you can put it in the boost namespace: nam...

Code Exiting on above 500,000 number of input
I was performing sorting algorithm to calculate their runtime to execute, in which I was giving millions of number of input to sort, but my code is exiting on above 500,000 input and not showing any output. Is there anyway I can solve it. int size; cout<<"Enter size of the array: "<<endl; cin>>size; int a[size]; for(in...
You code crashes on 500'000 input because of stack overflow, you're allocating array on stack of too big size: int a[size]; Stack size is usually few megabytes at most. Also it is probably an extensions not of all compilers to have dynamically allocated array on stack, usually size should be a compile time constant. To...

Is it OK to use lambda function parameter as a constant expression?
Why in this example the first call doesn't compile and the second one compiles? consteval auto foo(auto x) { static_assert(x); } int main(){ foo(42); // error: non-constant condition for static assertion foo([]{}); // OK } If I understand correctly, the first one is wrong due to lvalue-to-rvalue convers...
static_assert(x); while passing []{} works, because a capture-less lambda has a conversion operator to function pointer and a function pointer can be converted to a bool (which is going to be true for everything but a null pointer which the conversion can't return). An expression is a core constant expression as long a...

C++ Elliptic Integral of first kind

Elaborating on Steve's answer: there is no mistake or inaccuracy (select isn't broken). They are simply using different normalizations. Specifically, if you carefully read the documentation, C++'s std::comp_ellint_1(k) returns whereas Python's scipy.special.ellipk(m) returns Note the k^2 versus m. So to get the re...

Create matrix (2d-array) of size specified by parameter input in C++

A toy-example of my goal is som...
Following your comment, I can see why you are confused in your attempts to use a matrix in code. There are many types of containers in C++. Many of them you can find in the standard library (std::vector, std::list, std::set, ...), others you can create yourself or use other libraries. Plain arrays (like int a[5]) are a...

you have a variable called numbers in main, and you pass this as an argument to those functions. That 'numbers' has nothing to do with the global valiable of the same name.

I'm unsure what you're after but I think you want the angle between v.x and v.y scaled to 0-512.

Order of evaluation and operator precedence are not the same thing. Operator precedence here tells us that the expression ++x || y++ is equivalent to (++x) || (y++) rather than some other placement of parentheses, but that still doesn't tell us in which order the subexpressions are evaluated and operator precedence is ...

How to return an array in a function in cpp

You can't return an array in cpp. Instead use vectors. vector<int> my_arr(int a) { vector<int> arr; for (int i = 0; i < a; i++) { int input; cin >> input; arr.push_back(input); // to push elements into vector } return arr; }

Does storing a returned reference into a variable allow you to access that variable?
I am confused as to why storing a reference to a member variable with an alias allows us to access it, while storing it with a variable does not allow us to access the same variable. Let me clear up what I mean, say we have class Journey: class Journey { protected: Coordinate start; //coordinate consists of x a...
Because you are calling a copy constructor when instantiating a Coordinate object with Coordinate a = j.getStart(). That is, Coordinate a is a copy of start, not a reference to it. Read here about copy constructors. As for the question in the title, no, it doesn't. If you want some identifier to be a reference, you nee...

As others have mentioned, the iterator you create below the loop is not working because it has its own list that it populates and since you never keep any reference to it, after it is finished, it goes out of scope and is destroyed. Try this instead: class NestedIterator { public: vector<int> flatted; int curre...

Converting a valid UTF-8 byte sequence directly to UTF-16 is doable with a little mathematical know-how.

It's safe to use a RAII wrapper, and in fact safer than using mutex member functions directly, but it's also unnecessary to write since standard library already provides this. It's called std::lock_guard. However, your implementation isn't entirely safe, because it's copyable, and a copy will attempt to re-unlock the m...

TL;DR; the expected behavior is to return an empty set if the request is successful but there are no objects with that path, and to return a single element (with the error) if the request fails.

In your implementation, once the bottom of the rectangle goes below the ground, you just reverse the velocity but never update the position of the rectangle.

How to call a function with the same name within another class?
I have two classes, a Card class and Deck class. Both have display() functions, and I cannot change the name of the function. I am unsure of how I can call Card::display() inside of Deck::display(). Card.cpp void Card::display( ) const { cout << rank << suit; } Deck.cpp //in Deck.h I did #include "Card.h", I did no...
If deck is an array of Cards(as you mentioned), than when you write: deck[i].display() This display function will be implicit the display function of your Card class, so your code should be fine

C++ - Can a vector's size become more than the system RAM?
If I keep on inserting elements in a vector until I get an out of memory exception. What is the limit to the final vector's size? Size of RAM Size of secondary memory because virtual memory is being used.
This is entirely system dependent. However, on typical desktop and server systems, allocations via new in a C++ application are allocations of virtual memory. If the system has swap space, then it is entirely possible to allocate more virtual memory than the size of physical RAM, so your #2 is closer to the truth. Of ...

MessageBox expects to receive a string. Since you want to pass an address and render it as a hexadecimal number, you need to create a string holding the hexadecimal number first. void PrintBaseAddr() { while (true) { if (GetAsyncKeyState(VK_F6) & 0x80000) { HMODULE BaseAddr = GetModuleHandleA(NU...

How C++ expands multiple parameters packs simultaneously,

This is specified in C++ Standard section [temp.variadic]. Basically, it's what you described: when a pack expansion expands more than one pack, all those packs must have the same number of elements. And the expansion in most cases forms a list where the nth element in the resulting list uses the nth element of each ex...

Non-type template argument, from constant function argument?

You can't do SFINAE or specialization on function parameters, only template parameters. That means this can't work using your current approach.

When you invoke std::make_unique<int>(Size), what you actually did is allocate a memory of size sizeof(int) (commonly 4bytes), and initialize it as a int variable with the number of Size. So the size of the memory you allocated is only a single int, Mem.get()[k] will touch the address which out of boundary. But out of ...

Seems like there is a difference in implementation. The gcc library has a copy constructor istream_iterator(const istream_iterator& __obj) : _M_stream(__obj._M_stream), _M_value(__obj._M_value), _M_ok(__obj._M_ok) { } which is non-trivial. MSVC does not, and apparently relies on a compiler generated one.

You are allowed to use the subscript operator on a LegacyRandomAccessIterator. i[n] convertible to reference *(i + n) where n is of type std::iterator_traits<It>::difference_type (which is signed).

Why do compilers now accept to call str() member on a returned std::ostream& from std::stringstream::operator<<()?
Consider the following line: std::string s = (std::stringstream() << "foo").str(); This should not compile because std::stringstream::operator<<() is inherited by std::ostream and returns a std::ostream& which does not have an str() member. It seems the main compilers are now accepting this code where they didn't in t...
They all added the rvalue overload (see here) at around the same time. The rvalue overload was introduced in added to C++11 and returns the same type of stream as its left-hand operand.

Regardless of the question how you "raise the signal" on Windows there's the basic problem that you're relying on OS specifics to cancel a synchronous operation.

The program is not guaranteed to compile, although the specification of the language is somewhat lacking in this area.

An efficient algorithm to sample non-duplicate random elements from an array

This is what I've managed to come up with. Here I'm also making an assumption that...
The comments already note the use of std::set. The additional request to check for M unique elements in the input make that a bit more complicated. Here's an alternative implementation: Put all inputs in a std::set or std::unordered_set. This removes duplicates. Copy all elements to the return vector If that has more ...

However, the call to tableView->updat...
The canonical way is for your model to emit a dataChanged() signal. Any associated QTableViews will receive that signal and respond by re-querying the model for new values and updating the associated cells of their table.

The wording of the question tells me you're fairly new to programming. A remote process doesn't have AN instruction pointer, it typically has many - one per executing thread.

As William Pursell mentioned, using both clear() and clearerr() will solve your problem.

In your code, you are actually computing for the column header names two times.

Why does the bit-width of the mantissa of a floating point represent twice as many numbers compared to an int?
I am told that a double in C++ has a mantissa that is capable of safely and accurately representing [-(253 − 1), 253 − 1] integers. How is this possible when the mantissa is only 52 bits? Why is it that an int16 is only capable of having a range of [-32,768, +32,767], or [-215, 215-1], when the same thing could be used...
The format of the double (64 bits) is as follows: 1 bit: sign 11 bits: exponent 52 bits: mantissa We only need to look at the positive integers we can represent with the mantissa, since the sign bit takes care of the negative integers for us. Naively, with 52 bits, we can store unsigned integers from 0 to 2^52 - 1. Wi...

If your pivot point has coordinates (x, y), then you only need to set the position of your object (ideally its center of mass) to (x + r*cos(t), y + r*sin(t)) where r is the distance from the pivot and t is an angle, presumably a function of time (or something you periodically increase).

Result of string in conditional statement in C++

false && "Literally anything" is always false. The primary expression is false, operator && is a logical operator (unless it was overloaded), so it will short-circuit.

I wrote this code: void StartToSendCommand(QString fileName, QPlainTextEdit *textEdit) { QFile file(fileName); if (!file.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly | QIODevice::Text)) return; QTimer * inputTimer=new QTimer(textEdit); QTextStream in(&file); QString line; while (!in.atEnd()) { ...
If you want to wait for individual letters, you can also do this with a QTimer interval. Once the condition is met, you can submit the file. Here would be a small example, oriented towards a typewriter but has the same effect: .h .... private slots: void typeWriter(); private: QString line; QTimer *timer; ...

GDAL read several pictures from wmts server using same opened connection
I use C++ code to read pictures from WMTS server using DGAL. First I initialize GDAL once: ... OGRRegisterAll(); etc. But new connection is opened every time I want to read new image (different urls): gdalDataset = GDALOpen(my_url, GA_ReadOnly); URL example: https://sampleserver6.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/rest/services/...
While GDAL can read PNG files, it doesn't add much since those lack any geographical metadata. You probably want to interact with the WMS server instead, not the images directly. You can for example run gdalinfo on the main url to see the subdatasets: gdalinfo https://sampleserver6.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/services/Toro...

C++: Template binding object and method using lambda expression
Due to the fact that std::functional uses heap memory when combining it with an std::bind I wanted to replace the std::bind with a lambda expression but I do not quite know how to do this. Is this even possible? #include <iostream> #include <functional> #include <utility> template<typename Signature> class Callback; ...
If you really want to pass a member function pointer then you need to use syntax for calling the method via a member function pointer: mFunc = [&,method](Args...x){ return (obj.*method)(x...);}; However, it would be simpler if you'd accept free callables and let the caller bind the object to a member function if nece...

CreateWindowW always returns null
I'm new to C++ coding, and I'm trying to create a window using the Win32 API, but CreateWindowW() always return a NULL value. I tried to use CreateWindowEx() and CreateWindow(), but the same results. Here is the code I used: #include<windows.h> LRESULT CALLBACK WindowProcedure(HWND, UINT, WPARAM, LPARAM); INT WINAPI ...
The window procedure always returns 0, which ultimately cancels window creation. As outlined in the documentation for CreateWindowExW: The CreateWindowEx function sends WM_NCCREATE, WM_NCCALCSIZE, and WM_CREATE messages to the window being created. The first message, WM_NCCREATE, has the following in the documentatio...

Insert JSON object into an existing JSON object as a key-value-pair in Boost
I have a class hierarchy that looks like this: class A is composed of classes B and C. B and C each have a function that returns boost::json::object, which looks like this in case of B: {"B": "someValue"} A is supposed to compose each of these objects into a structure like this: { "A": { "B": "someValue", "C"...
makeObject returns single objects. You pass them as the initializer list to a json::value, so you should expect {makeObject(...), makeObject(...)} to create an array: docs If the initializer list consists of key/value pairs, an object is created. Otherwise an array is created. Instead, you want to make an initializer...

Why does static_assert on a 'reference to const int' fail?
I'm now learning how to use static_assert. What I learned so far is that the argument of the static_assert has to be constant expression. For the following code, I don't know why the argument reference is not a constant expression: It is declared as const and initialized by integral constant 0: int main() { const i...
First of all, because you use static_assert(reference); instead of static_assert(!reference); the program is ill-formed whether or not the operand of static_assert is a constant expression, as the assertion will fail. The standard only requires some diagnostic for an ill-formed program. It doesn't need to describe the ...

C++ Builder 10.4 community edition => scoped_lock are missing (at least seems to be a path mess)
Just installed C++Builder 10.4 Community Edition. My app is a console multi-threaded app, and uses std::scoped_lock (C++17). It seems that C++Builder chooses a <mutex> header file that does not define scoped_lock in C:\Program Files (x86)\Embarcadero\Studio\21.0\include\dinkumware64, where the <mutex> header file that ...
The standard library is located in dinkumware64 for 32-bit programs as well, so you should be looking there. Problem is that scoped_lock is missing from the standard library. You can easily implement this class by yourself by using std::lock, or just use std::lock_guard if you only have one mutex.

How to specify which function I want to use in a C++ class when a C function has the same name as my C++ function?
I am trying to write an i2c driver class. The class contains read() and write() methods. The problem is that I use write function of unistd.h in my Drv_i2c class write() function (see below) and Qtcreator compiler chooses my class write function instead of unistd.h write function. I know that I could just rename my cla...
You can use the scope operator "::" maybe

After compiling a simple C++ code in eclipse, it doesn't show the problems as described in my instruction

You've got two problems. The easy one. On line 12 you have a typo. It should say std::endl; rather than std:endl; You are missing a colon, it's just that. The harder one. When I load the following code into Visual Studio on Windows, it compiles and runs correctly. #include <iostream> int main() { std::cout << "Hel...

Range_Image of PCL crashes Application
I am using the precompiled/All-in-One PCL (PointCloudLibrary) in release-version 1.12.1 for Windows. IDE: Visual Studio 2019 With that, I am already able to use the visualizer, so parts of the library are already working fine. When I want to create a RangeImage-object however my program either runs into an infinite l...

Implicit conversions can cause problems and can have a negative effect on readability. If possible make the conversions explicit and keep implicit conversions for exceptional cases, when you are sure that an implicit conversion is appropriate. The call is no longer ambiguous if you make the conversion explicit: explici...

Do you know what happend when i invoke copy constructor on self?
I do not know what happend when i invoke copy constructor on self. In my opinion, The copy constructor will allocate new memory space for the object, and then copy the data of the old object to the new memory space. So the address will change when i call A(a), but it not. class A { public: A(const A& t) { s...
a = A(a); does create a new A by invoke copy constructor. But you then copy(assign) the value back to a. and drop the temporary. the a address is never changed. (there is no way to change it btw)

Constexpr class function definition linking error
Function is declared in hpp file like this: class StringProcessor { static constexpr const char* string_process(const char* initial_string, std::size_t string_length, const char* key, std::size_t key_length); }; And defined in cpp like this: constexpr const char* StringProcessor:: string_process(const char* initia...
constexpr functions are implicitly inline and therefore need to be defined in every translation unit where they are used. That usually means that the definition should go into a header shared between the translation units using the function. Also, in order for constexpr to be of any use, the function needs to be define...

How to get proper stack trace despite catch and throw; in std library
I use C++17, GCC, Qt Creator with its integrated GDB debugger. I have code that simplifies down to this: #include <iostream> #include <iomanip> // Example-implementation #define assert(Condition) { if (!(Condition)) { std::cerr << "Assert failed, condition is false: " #Condition << std::endl; } } #include <execinfo.h...
What @n.1.8e9-where's-my-sharem. suggested in the comments ended up working. When you throw an exception in C++, behind the scenes the function __cxa_throw is called. You can replace that function, look at the stack trace, then call the replaced function. Here is a simple proof-of-concept: #include <dlfcn.h> #include <...

Can G++ coexist side by side with Visual Studio?
I have Visual Studio 2013 Community installed. Now want to learn more about compiling, as well as being more Windows independent/portable, with Notepad/G++11/MinGW-64 (all within same Windows 10 Home 64bit platform for c++ audio applications). Can GCC and VS coexist side by side?
Yes. You can, of course, have both installed side-by-side. But you cannot expect to be able to link object files / libraries compiled by different compilers (or even different compiler versions) in most cases.

First off, you need to make up your mind. You're duplicating the error handling code (inconsistently), using a function object as the rule tag (error_handler), (but operator() is completely ignored there), complicating things because you are using the same tag on different rules. Then you're also using the undocumented...

Calling a GNU ar script in Makefile

You don't need to use the shell function and you don't need to write it to a file. ar is taking from stdin anyway so why not just use a pipe?
