I have an application form named Form1.h. The code for this form is a
namespace (MyNamespace) with two classes in it (Form1 and MyClass). Form1 has
windows designer code and some button event handlers. In those event handlers
I want to reference methods in the MyClass class. I use syntax like this:
double F = MyClass::MyMeth od(x,y);
As soon as I type the second colon I get a full list of all the exposed
methods in MyClass and I sense I going the right way. But, I debug and get
two errors:
1) MyClass is not a class or namespace name
2) MyMethod identifier not found
I am not sure why this happens but I sense its because I need an instance of
MyClass to work with in the class Form1. In VB I create an instance of a
class with the new keywork e.g. MyInstance=new MyClass. How is this done in
C++?

Yup, putting MyClass first works. However, my form designer dissappears.
Yes, because the form designer doesn't actually understand C++, it just
looks for particular patterns in the file. If you move a block of code into
a different file and make it visible in the first file using #include, the
compiler will see it, but the form designer won't get confused (as much).

OK, so now I have (omitting windows designer code):
#pragma once
namespace WA1 {
using namespace System;
using namespace System::Compone ntModel;
using namespace System::Collect ions;
using namespace System::Windows ::Forms;
using namespace System::Data;
using namespace System::Drawing ;
public ref class Form1 : public System::Windows ::Forms::Form
{
private: System::Void button1_Click(S ystem::Object^ sender,
System::EventAr gs^ e) {
MyClass Instance;
The compiler doesn't know MyClass is a type name, because it hasn't seen MyClass yet. Move the definition of MyClass ahead of where you use it. If you have two mutually interacting classes, this will require that you use a forward declaration of each class "class MyClass;" to make it usable as a parameter and/or return type, and then both class bodies with forward declarations of member functions, and then bodies of each member function. That way everything is available to the compiler before it's used.
double x = 2.0;
double F = Instance.MyMeth od(&x);
}
};
public class MyClass{
double MyMethod(double *x){
return *x*2;
}
};
}
Again, intellisense seems to recognize MyClass and MyMethod bcause as
soon
as I type double F = Instance., MyMethod shows up as a choice. But on
degug
I get:
error C2065: 'MyClass' : undeclared identifier
error C2146: syntax error : missing ';' before identifier 'Instance'
error C2065: 'Instance' : undeclared identifier
error C2228: left of '.MyMethod' must have class/struct/union

Does MyClass need to maintain state, in such a way that it would be worth keeping track of instances? If no, put the 'static' modifier on your functions, then your function calls will work as-is.
If yes, then you can do:
MyClass instance; double F = instance.MyMeth od(x, y);
which establishes an instance that is local to the current scope. If the object needs to live longer, we need to know if it is a ref class or a native C++ class. For native C++: MyClass* pInstance = new MyClass(); double F = pInstance->MyMethod(x, y); .... later delete pInstance;
For .NET ref classes: MyClass^ pInstance = gcnew MyClass(); double F = pInstance->MyMethod(x, y); .... no need to delete, garbage collector does the work for you

Hi all
I noticed something strange here while explaining decorators to someone.
Not any real use code, but I think it's worth mentioning.
When I access a class attribute, on a class with a custom metaclass with
a __getattribute__ method, the method is used when acessing some
attribute directly with the class object, but not when you do it from
the instance.

Hi
I found that a type/class are both a subclass and a instance of base
type "object".
It conflicts to my understanding that:
1.) a type/class object is created from class statement
2.) a instance is created by "calling" a class object.

Hello,
Can someone explain to me the difference between a type and a class?
After reading http://www.cafepy.com/article/python_types_and_objects/
it seems to me that classes and types are actually the same thing:
- both are instances of a metaclass, and the same metaclass ('type')
can instantiate both classes and types.
- both can be instantiated and yield an "ordinary" object
- I can even inherit from a type and get a class

I have a class which is not intended to be instantiated. Instead of using
the class to creating an instance and then operate on it, I use the class
directly, with classmethods. Essentially, the class is used as a function
that keeps state from one call to the next.
The problem is that I don't know what to call such a thing! "Abstract
class" isn't right, because that implies that you should subclass the
class and then instantiate the...
