Need help defining member function arguments please
« on: August 08, 2006, 08:48:07 pm »
This is sort of confusing for me to Post, so I'll do my best and show all my code.  I have two .cpp files, one that includes the other's .h file.  I have defined the following member variables:
Code
private:
        bool m_fullscreen

And three public member functions:
Code
void CGfxOpenGL::SetScreenMode(bool x)
{
m_fullscreen = x;
}

bool CGfxOpenGL::GetScreenMode()
{
return m_fullscreen;
}

void CGfxOpenGL::QuestionScreenMode()
{
if (MessageBox(NULL,
"Do you want to run in Fullscreen",
"FullScreen Mode",
MB_YESNO | MB_ICONQUESTION | MB_DEFBUTTON1) == IDYES)
{
SetScreenMode(true);
return;
}
else
{
SetScreenMode(false);
return;
}
}

In the winmain.cpp source file I have created an object of the class CGfxOpenGL called <setOpenGL> and I wanted to run an IF statement in winmain.cpp that checks if the app is running in fullscreen (which calls to see if the user wants it to run in fullscreen) and if so apply the proceding settings, but I wanted to do the if statement like so:
Code
if (setOpenGL.GetScreenMode(setOpenGl.SetScreenMode()))
...
...

But I am having the problem that I am obviously defining GetScreenMode with no arguments.  So I tried specifying it as <GetScreenMode(CGfxOpenGL a)> so I could pass the function in the other function (CGfxOpenGl.GetScreenMode(
Thanks in advance

but I get an error
error C2664: 'GetScreenMode' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'void' to 'class CGfxOpenGL

How do I have to set the passing argements?

Thanks

I'm not exactly sure what you are trying to do, but wouldn't it be something like:

if (setOpenGL.GetScreenMode()) {
    setOpenGl.SetScreenMode(true);
}

or similar?

No offense, but you are aware that our forum deals with topics related to Code::Blocks, aren't you?
 ;)

This is the 3rd or 4th topic of yours which would be placed better in a general programming forum.

Maybe he feels the concentration of expertise (parts-per-million ?) is
higher here than on UseNet ?

Well it currently is in "general" and I am pretty sure (though I don't have a receipt) that i have been placing them in General, as the "code::blocks" form states "about code::blocks" when actually I am not using code::blocks.  But if I haven't I'll make sure that I am.

To answer the first reply, what I want to do is:  in the IF statement, call the function to get the value of m_fullscreen, but the GetScreenMode() function takes and argument which is another function of the same class QuestionScreenMode().   Therefore what i am trying to accomplish is in IF statement condition, it will call GetScreenMode() which calls QuestionsScreenMode Which then ask the user if they want to run in fullscreen or not, their return value ends up in SetScreenMode and so GetScreenMode ends up pulling what QuestionScreenMode passed it.

Therefore in one statement I am asking the question, posting to a member variable, and retrieving that value.

The following is the FULL code to both winmain.cpp and CGfxOpenGL.cpp

WINMAIN.CPP

OK ... it's a little clearer.  If I understand correctly, then you should use

if (! setOpenGL.GetScreenMode()) {
    setOpenGl.QuestionScreenMode();
}


If you want it as a single line then

if (! setOpenGL.GetScreenMode()) setOpenGl.QuestionScreenMode();

If you want it as a single (nested) function call, then the
calling convention to GetScreenMode will have to change.

Cheers,
Ron

This is a general issues with Code::Blocks forum, not a General issues with the programs you are making with Code::Blocks forum.  ProgrammingForums is a good place to get these kind of questions answered, not here.

Good luck with your project.
