[hlcoders] C++ Template Question
hi -
i'm repeating a post of mine from thewavelength's forums regarding
templates. anyone have any advice?
i've tried a few different things, here's the definitions for them:
CODE
template class T void Test2(void) { T damn; return; }; //default with
int
template class T T Test(T a, T b) { return (ab?a:b); }; // used
ints, avoided
template class T T* CreateMinElements(T* a); // same as in cbase.h
GetClassPtr
template class T void ResetSystem(void); // default example
and called them like such:
CODE
Test2int();
Test(3,5);
CTempElement* a;
a = CreateMinElements((CTempElement*) NULL);
ResetSystemCGenericListElement();
and got the following errors on compile:

any ideas? i did in fact implement the bodies of the first two, but i don't
think it's important enough to include here. CGenericListElement is a parent
of CTempElement, and the two templates that have those as the parameters
imply the use of the parent type or something related, due to some internal
commands with T.
thanks,

Re: [hlcoders] C++ Template Question
think i've got it. i had those function definitions inside the class
definition. now that i applied the template to the entire class (which is
probably a better design idea anyway), it seems to work (with a little more
playing, that is). thanks to NIN and a quick run through some quake1.

[hlcoders] VGUI Image Problem
This is a multi-part message in MIME format. -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I've recently finished my VGUI HUD. The last thing I added in was a VGUI version of the ammo history (displays items you pick up on the right). This all works fine and dandy no problems.. at least not at first. The whole HUD uses a considerable amount of images, 1 for ammo (changed using setImage when you switch weapons), 12 for the history (changed again using setImage), 2 for the armor and health, and like 16 for each weapon. The HUD works perfectly without a flaw, at least for the first part. As the game progresses and I pick up more and more items, suddenly the wierdest happens. All the images that aren't completely static (ammo, history, weapons) vanish. They refuse to be drawn, while the armor and health images always stay perfectly fine. This completely boggles me and leads me to almost think a VGUI image can only be changed so many times with setImage before it causes choas? Perhaps some pictures will help. Here is the HUD normally, all working correctly. http://www.llamanade.net/ghoul/pictures/error/vgui_image_bug0.jpg Normally if I had recently picked something up it would appear on the right side like it should, but in when this picture was taken I had not picked anything up, so of course there is no image. Also, the browser for the weapons is not open, so nothing there. Now, the bugged picture. http://www.llamanade.net/ghoul/pictures/error/vgui_image_bug1.jpg So then, now as you can see everything that isn't static is gone. I had just picked up some trip mines and they of course didn't show up in the history. In the weapon selector no images are present, at the bottom the primary ammo isn't present. The secondary is because only 2 weapons use secondary ammo, and they are handled differently. The health and armor are there still of course because they aren't modified ever ingame. The only thing I can think of for such behavior is some wierd bug with changing images (setImage and setPos). Either that or I'm just completely missing something. :( If anyone has any ideas, please respond. :) Caleb 'Ghoul' Delnay Project Leader: Kill Or Be Killed http://www.llamanade.net/kobk/ -- ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
Re: [hlcoders] VGUI Image Problem
Hi, The first thing I had to suggest is to delete/re-set all the images you need every time a thing needs to change... It's a quite brute method, but for testing, it could be a good thing (you can try to draw a pict in the middle of the screen to test).

Re: [hlcoders] VGUI Image Problem
I encountered something similar to this a while back. Make sure you are freeing any unused images, there is a limited amount of memory for image storage (I think... something like this at least) (there is lots of room, but if you keep allocating new images and never free one then it quickly adds up).

It's a quite brute method, but for testing, it could be a good thing (you can try to draw a pict in the middle of the screen to test). Anyway, your HUD looks pretty cool :) - Cortex : HL ALBATOR coder mapper - [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ : 71548738 Caleb 'Ghoul' Delnay wrote: This is a multi-part message in MIME format. -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I've recently finished my VGUI HUD. The last thing I added in was a VGUI version of the ammo history (displays items you pick up on the right). This all works fine and dandy no problems.. at least not at first. The whole HUD uses a considerable amount of images, 1 for ammo (changed using setImage when you switch weapons), 12 for the history (changed again using setImage), 2 for the armor and health, and like 16 for each weapon. The HUD works perfectly without a flaw, at least for the first part. As the game progresses and I pick up more and more items, suddenly the wierdest happens. All the images that aren't completely static (ammo, history, weapons) vanish. They refuse to be drawn, while the armor and health images always stay perfectly fine. This completely boggles me and leads me to almost think a VGUI image can only be changed so many times with setImage before it causes choas? Perhaps some pictures will help. Here is the HUD normally, all working correctly. http://www.llamanade.net/ghoul/pictures/error/vgui_image_bug0.jpg Normally if I had recently picked something up it would appear on the right side like it should, but in when this picture was taken I had not picked anything up, so of course there is no image. Also, the browser for the weapons is not open, so nothing there. Now, the bugged picture. http://www.llamanade.net/ghoul/pictures/error/vgui_image_bug1.jpg So then, now as you can see everything that isn't static is gone. I had just picked up some trip mines and they of course didn't show up in the history. In the weapon selector no images are present, at the bottom the primary ammo isn't present. The secondary is because only 2 weapons use secondary ammo, and they are handled differently. The health and armor are there still of course because they aren't modified ever ingame. The only thing I can think of for such behavior is some wierd bug with changing images (setImage and setPos). Either that or I'm just completely missing something. :( If anyone has any ideas, please respond. :) Caleb 'Ghoul' Delnay Project Leader: Kill Or Be Killed http://www.llamanade.net/kobk/ ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders -- Alfred Reynolds [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
