MCF question

Yes : std::vector to std::list What is the best method to copy the data? Can you give an example? Thanks.

It's not MFC, but something like:

vector<int> vec;
vector<int>::iterator it;
list<int> l;

for (it = vec.begin(); it != vec.end(); it++)
l.push_back(*it);

I'm not an STL expert, but after a quick google (bing did not give valid answers in the first few pages), here are a couple of solutions (adapt to your particular situation)

std::copy (v.begin (), v.end (), std::back_inserter (l))

or

std::list<int> l(v.begin(), v.end());

or ...

Just so you know, std::vector and std::list have nothing to do with MFC. They are part of STL or Standard Template Library and are cross platform.

I forget to mention it's two different data types see code below: std::list TempRes; TempRes.clear; std::vector::iterator it; for (it = TempResList.begin(); it != TempResList.end(); it++) TempRes.push_back(*it); Thanks the help on this.

Well I guess it did not compile fully earlier, I am still getting the compiler error message below when I tried to copied the data from a vector to a list. ompiling... FSSCHED.CPP c:\program files\ilps\code\fstool\fssched.cpp(1165) : error C2664: 'push_back' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'class RDLTemporaryResource *' to 'class RDLResource *const & ' Reason: cannot convert from 'class RDLTemporaryResource *' to 'class RDLResource *const ' Types pointed to are unrelated; conversion requires reinterpret_cast, C-style cast or function-style cast Error executing cl.exe. fstool.dll - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)

That's because your list is for RDLResource* objects while your iterator for that list is for RDLTemporaryResource* objects.

Right. So I am having problems transferring the data from the vector to the list. How do I work around doing that in my case? I tied casting, it compiled but the application crashes at runtime. Thanks.

That's impossible to tell since I know nothing of either of those two classes. For example, how would you copy a vector of Automobile objects to a list of Animal objects?

That would not work unless the two classes had a "is a" relationship.

Reading that it occurred to me that a more casual (possibly less informed) reader might look at that, pause, and then have their head explode. :)

So you binged it, but it bonged out?

I agree. :doh:
