Neat Error message

greba

Got this "error" message when I was rearranging some code: error C2086: 'valid' : redefinition Greba

Daniel Turini

Do you want a strange message? C2521 "destructors do not take arguments" C2230 "'function' : a member function of a managed class cannot return a non-managed class or struct 'user-defined type' unless it is an aggregate" In plain English: "Your managed type returns another that have a virtual destructor". You can do it on anything you choose - from .bat to .net - A customer

"Pure virtual function call" from MSIE. :omg: "The system has recovered from an undetected error" from Windows. This is my favorite- if the error was undetected, how did it know there's an error? (Never mind how it recovered). :confused: If the links don't work, use RClick-Save target as: http://www.geocities.com/vpunathambekar/assertfail_in_game.jpg Not an error per se: http://www.geocities.com/vpunathambekar/minus_one_percent.jpg http://www.geocities.com/vpunathambekar/crazy.jpg Uff! That was long. :rolleyes: Vikram.

try
{
  .. code that cuases the error
}
catch(...)
{
  MessageBox("The system has recovered from an undetected error");
}

:-D If your nose runs and your feet smell, then you're built upside down.

I got this message box[^] from Outlook. :omg: I realy don't know what this means.. i'm only pointer to myself

J Dunlap

I think it was meant to say "Outlook experienced a serious error the last time the addin 'addinname' was loaded. Do you want to remove this addin from the startup list? " or something like that, but something went wrong, possibly something like a \0 in the addin's name.

Vikram Punathambekar wrote: "Pure virtual function call" from MSIE. When constructing a class, the compiler first calls the constructors of the base classes. If the programmer calls a pure virtual function within the constructor (or destructor), the compiler can detect this and gives an error. However, the compiler can't detect it if a function called by the constructor in another translation unit calls the pure virtual function. To catch this case, the appropriate vtable entry is filled in with a pointer to a C++ runtime function that produces that error message. MS could have set it to 0 instead, which would have caused an immediate access violation. Correctly speaking, the vtable should be constructed (i.e. the object's vptr set to the appropriate vtable) after initialising all the base classes but before initialising the member variables in the member-initialiser list. VC 6.0 gets it wrong and sets the vptr after the member-initialiser list but still before the body of the constructor. I've seen this in a few apps other than IE, and I seem to recall doing it myself once...
