a question regarding CStringList
-
If your aim is to delete elements in the CStringList one by one, why not you 'find' that particular element and then use 'RemoveAt' function?

Same thing????? I am not sure if I am right. Correct me if I am wrong. Just a suggestion from my side. See, 'Find' method returns the position of a particular string value passed to it. Once you get the position you can use the same in 'RemoveAt' functions which returns a void. Willn't this help you?

yes,but this returns teh LPCTSTR value not the pointer to the CString! -- modified at 3:18 Tuesday 14th February, 2006

Sorry !!! May I know which return value(LPCTSTR) are you talking about. Because none of the functions that I mentioned 'Find' and 'RemoveAt' returns LPCTSTR. So I am confused as what return value you are talking about.

i have a CStringList instance and i dynamically create CString objects and add them to the CStringList Object , now here is my question: when i want to destroy the CStringList object i first have to 'delete' all the CString objects thati have inserted dynamically!for this i need to get the pointer to the CString....but using the RemoveTail() of the CStringList object i am able to get back only the LPCTSTR of the CString objects ,SO HOW do i GET THE CSTRING object pointer from the CStringList to delete the dynamically created CString objects?????:confused::confused::confused::confused: -- modified at 2:34 Tuesday 14th February, 2006
why don't you just do this ? (looking at the MSDN[^]...)
CStringList myList = /*...*/;
//...
CObject* pObj = NULL;
for (int i = 0; i < this->GetCount(); i++) {
//because GetAt() returns a CObject*&
pObj = myList.GetAt(i);
myList.RemoveAt(i);
delete pObj;
}

Why don't you use RemoveAt and GetAt ? First, get the object at a specific position with GetAt, then remove it from the list with RemoveAt, then delete the object.
POSITION Pos = ....; // Some position CObject* pToDelete = YourStringList.GetAt(Pos); YourStringList.RemoveAt(Pos); delete pToDelete;By the way, I think that the STL containers are much easier to use for particular cases like that. The direct access of the iterator is something very powerfull (no nooooo, I don't want to reopen the debate from yesterday about MFC and STL containers ;P ). -

[toxcct][VisualCalc 2.20][VCalc 3.0 soon...] -- modified at 3:39 Tuesday 14th February, 2006I think (but I'm not sure because I don't use MFC containers), that you will have problems if you delete your object before removing it from the list. See my other post.

hum, actually, manually... (for the moment)... but i plan to make a little program which gets the text you post and automatically adds the CP CSS tags for the colors :
<SPAN class=cpp-keyword> keyword </SPAN>
<SPAN class=cpp-comment> //comment </SPAN>
<SPAN class=cpp-preprocessor> #preprocessor </SPAN>

[toxcct][VisualCalc 2.20][VCalc 3.0 soon...] -- modified at 3:39 Tuesday 14th February, 2006hello toxcct... this is what i found in MSDN class CStringList : public CObject Remarks The CStringList class supports lists of CString objects. All comparisons are done by value, meaning that the characters in the string are compared instead of the addresses of the strings. The member functions of CStringList are similar to the member functions of class CObList. Because of this similarity, you can use the CObList reference documentation for member function specifics. Wherever you see a CObject pointer as a return value, substitute a CString (not a CString pointer). Wherever you see a CObject pointer as a function parameter, substitute an LPCTSTR. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/vclib/html/_mfc_cstringlist.asp[^] so now what?:((

see,itz not abt deleting from the list(yes that is also one requirement)...but what i need to know is how to "delete" teh allocated memory!(by just removing from teh list, the string only get removed from teh list but it does not free the memory associated with teh CString object that i had dynamically created!...that is why i need teh address of teh CString object!...) any ideas?

this is for danta handling into the list... but if you use the C++
deletekeyword, you have to give it the address to the memory block to delete

Why don't you use RemoveAt and GetAt ? First, get the object at a specific position with GetAt, then remove it from the list with RemoveAt, then delete the object.
POSITION Pos = ....; // Some position CObject* pToDelete = YourStringList.GetAt(Pos); YourStringList.RemoveAt(Pos); delete pToDelete;By the way, I think that the STL containers are much easier to use for particular cases like that. The direct access of the iterator is something very powerfull (no nooooo, I don't want to reopen the debate from yesterday about MFC and STL containers ;P ).hello cedric! actually that what i did!...he is the small snippet!....i get an error!
CObject* pObject1; pObject1 = myList1->GetAt(myList1->FindIndex( 0 ));//ERROR!!!!! myList1->RemoveAt(myList1->FindIndex( 0 )); delete pObject1;error C2679: binary '=' : no operator defined which takes a right-hand operand of type 'class CString' (or there is no acceptable conversion)
what do i do?any ideas?:sigh:

What is the type of myList1 ?? From the MSDN:
CObject*& GetAt(
POSITION position
);Are you sure the error comes at this line ?

yeah!....u see as long as i typecast it to LPCTSTR and that too to an LPCTSTR i dont get an error..... in teh MSDN it says that for CStringList teh returned parameter will alwayz be replaced from CString* to LPCTSTR..... so is there a way of getting CString* from LPCTSTR?.....i mean after all LPCTSTR is a pointer inside the CString object!
