• netsql

  thank you,
   but my question is... can i use the TYPE STRUCT in  VISUAL C++
  

• WN3335

    mhhhh, in c++ there is the type struct...... but i don’t know how to create
   a similar type in VISUAL C++..... that is my problem..... because i'm doing the program in VISUAL C++
  
  
  Are you missing something i don’t know....

  hi...... yes. but my question is.... CAN I USE THE
  TYPE STRUCT IN  visual c++
  
    the code  that i wrote HERE is in c++ , and i want to do it in VISUAL C++....

  If your code does something like:
  struct  ind
  {
    char *c;
    int f;
  };
  
  Then yes that is supported in VC++ which is visible in the above example.
  
  P.S:Make sure you have the ";" after "}" cause wasn't there in your previous sample (probably a typo).

  I believe what you mean is how to use an array of structs.
  
  Here is a sample of what you can do:
  
  #include <stdio.h>
  #include <string.h>

  struct  ind
  {
    char *c;
    int f;
  };

  void main()
  {
   ind pob[5];
   ind pob2[5];

   pob[0].f = 10;
   pob2[0].c = new char[10];
    strcpy (pob2[0].c,"In main"); 
   printf ("number = %d ... string = %s",pob[0].f,pob2[0].c);
  }
  
  This should output:
  number = 10 ... string = In main

  I don't believe there is a type STRUCT in c++.
  
  You can define your own if you want.
  
  Am I missing something

  Here is a pointer on how structs work in VC++:
  http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/library/en-us/vclang/html/_clang_structure_declarations.asp
  
  Also, you can use typedef to define your struct:
  
  #include <stdio.h>
  #include <string.h>

  typedef struct
  {
    char *c;
    int f;
  } STRUCT;

  void main()
  {
   STRUCT pob[5];
   STRUCT pob2[5];

   pob[0].f = 10;
   pob2[0].c = new char[10];
    strcpy (pob2[0].c,"In main"); 
   printf ("number = %d ... string = %s",pob[0].f,pob2[0].c);
  }

  thanks, i just don’t know where to put the definition of the struct....
  
   sorry, new in visual  c++

  
  

• Intruder

  Don't the array of your defined struct do the same purpose There is no TYPE STRUCT
  
  The "struct" is C++ (VC++) is an aggregate of components of other types.
