I've repeatedly said that c/c++ is giberish to me, for the most part.
I have this line of code:
((CDebugProcess *)m_pDebugProcess)->BeginDebug(oSingle.outname,m_pMainWnd->GetSafeHwnd());
GetSafeHwnd is a method of Cwnd that returns a window handle
BeginDebug(oSingle.outname,m_pMainWnd) is a method of CDebugProcess that returns a BOOL
I know where oSingle.outname and m_pMainWnd come from and what they mean.
m_pDebugProcess is a LPVOID member in yet another class
what the %&$# is that line of code doing (in IWB please)?
Guess I'm going to have to learn a little C++ on my own.
I got a copy of "C++ All-in-One for Dummies" and have started reading it.
Not that I WANT to learn C++ but I NEED to learn enough to be able to convert about 1500 lines of code + the headers.
Sorry I can't really help Larry .. C is gobbledegook to me as well ::)
I can tell you though, that the 'arrow operator' is used in place of the dot operator when accessing a structure member through a pointer to the structure.
I'm not really any wiser though - it's what my C book says.
I would get no sense of achievement if I'd written that monster statement you were asking about. :o
My only other thought is to put your query on the CM forum - there might be more chance of finding a C expert there.
best wishes, :)
