Hi,
I am a moonlighting Java programmer who needs to get some JNI written in C.
Thanks to legacy considerations, it must be in C. I hope I can frame this
question in a way that you all can understand.
Now, some of the calls I make returns a pointers to an objects. The objects
themselves are written in C++. I need to call methods on these objects. How
is this done? I hope there is wither a really short answer I can be given, or
that there is a FAQ, how-to, tutorial or some such I can be pointed to.
Thanks!

I can understand your question, but there is one important thing you
are misunderstandin g.

You are contradicting yourself here. Above you said you were talking
about C code. Suddenly you are talking about C++, an entirely
different language, which has no "methods". Actually C++ does not
have "methods" either, although it does have something called member
functions.

Your biggest problem is that you are asking in the wrong place. C and
C++ are two entirely different languages, and C++ is completely
off-topic here. C++ questions go to comp.lang.c++, down the hall to
the left. But before you do that, take the link in my signature to
their FAQ. There is a section dealing with your question, but it is
not particularly simple.

Hi
One implementation, would be to save the function pointers for each method
, and access the method using these pointers. The function pointers can be
saved in the constructor.

The only sensible way is to write your code in C++ and call
ptr->method(). I hope there is wither a really short answer I can be given, or that there is a FAQ, how-to, tutorial or some such I can be pointed > to.
You can call C from C++, but it is very difficult to call C++ from C.
If you are really determined to do it, you need to find out how classes are
implemented on the C++ compiler you are using. You will probably find that
each class has a hidden first member which indexes onto a table of function
pointers. To access from C, you need to access this hidden member and then
do lots of messy casts to retrieve the member function pointer. You then
call it, remembering to set up the "this" pointer.
The code will not be portable from one C++ compiler to the next. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics |

Hello,
I have a large array of pointer to some object. I have to run test
such that every possible pair in the array is tested.
eg. if A,B,C,D are items of the array,
possible pairs are AB, AC, AD, BC and CD.
I'm using two nested for loop as below, but it is running very slow
whenever I access any data in the second loop.

Hello,
I have to read/write in the UART to transfer bytes through the serial
port. I use Visual C++ 6 and Win2000.
When I used Win98, the problem was easy : the functions _inp and _outp
(or the file port95nt.dll) allow to read/write on the UART. But these
functions (or this DLL) do not work...
If anyone knows how to have the rights to access the UART with Win2000
or the functions to use in VC++, please help me !

Hello everybody
in a quiz I had a question about dangling pointer:
"What a dangling pointer is and the danger of using it"
My answer was:
"dangling pointer is a pointer that points to some area of ram that's
not reserved by the program. Accessing memory through such pointer is
likely to result in core dump (memory access violation)"

1. Out of fgets() and gets() which function is safe to use and why?
2. What is a far pointer? where we use it?
3. What does the error 'Null Pointer Assignment' mean and what causes
this error?
4. What is near, far and huge pointers? How many bytes are occupied by
them?
5. How would you obtain segment and offset addresses from a far
address of a memory location?

I'm having a problem porting an ASP solution to ASPX.
In the ASP solution I'm accessing a DCOM server, create sub DCOM objects and

The DCOM object handles are stored in session variables.
This works fine without a problem.
Ported it to ASPX, accessing the same DCOM server from code behind pages.
Still, usually no problems.
However sometimes I'm seeing an error stating that the DCOM handle...

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
