Using Deque :: Iterator?

[Donos]

Hello

I have the following declaration in my code,

*************** *************** *************** *************** ******
struct mHandleObj
{
HANDLE h;
};

std::deque<mHan dleObjm_Hand;

std::deque<mHan dleObj>::iterat or m_Itr;
*************** *************** *************** *************** ******

Now in the actual implementation, there is...

*************** *************** *************** *************** ******

HANDLE hHand = ::CreateEvent(N ULL,FALSE,FALSE ,NULL);

mHandleObj* pObj = new mHandleObj;

pObj->h = hHand ;

m_Hand.push_bac k(*pObj );

This is where i push in data to Deque. After this i use the following
code to take data out of Deque.

m_Itr = m_Hand.begin();
mHandleObj& pWro = *m_Itr;

And then i do,

m_Hand.pop_back ();
*************** *************** *************** **************

This works fine in a few loops and after that, what happens is that at
some place the Deque breaks.
There is a memory exception and the debugger goes into some
"dbgheap.c" file which is associated with Visual Studio.

Is there anything wrong in this code?

Since 'CreateEvent' is not a standard function, we'll have to take
your word that it actually works and does what you need.

mHandleObj* pObj = new mHandleObj;

pObj->h = hHand ;

m_Hand.push_bac k(*pObj );

Seems like a waste of memory. Why do you need 'new'? Why can't you
simply do

mHandleObj m = { hHand };
m_Hand.push_bac k(m);

?

pop_back does not take out the object pointed to by 'm_Hand.begin() '.
It takes out the _last_ element. Consider using 'pop_front'.

At what place? What do you mean by "breaks"?

There is a memory exception and the debugger goes into some
"dbgheap.c" file which is associated with Visual Studio.

OK.

What code? The bits and pieces you cared to post seem fine (albeit
using 'new' and 'pop_back' inappropriately ). Nothing can be said
about the rest of it, of course, since you decided to withhold it.
