C++ Object array stack overflow - c++

when i try to create an array of 'gameObject'-s i get a stack overflow exception, any idea what might be the reason?
Edit: for an array of 1 it DOES NOT throw an exception, i was mistaken
(creating just a 'gameObject' variable is fine)
I know my code is messy, and just all around bad, but i'm fairly new to c++ so please excuse my code :(
Here is my Main.cpp:
int main()
{
using namespace std::literals::chrono_literals;
HWND myconsole = GetConsoleWindow();
HDC mydc = GetDC(myconsole);
bool loop;
loop = false;
std::chrono::steady_clock::time_point start;
std::chrono::steady_clock::time_point end;
std::chrono::duration<float> duration;
gameObject test(mydc, "test.dat");
gameObject objList[100];
test.posX = 200;
test.posY = 10;
std::cout << getCurrentId();
while (true)
{
start = std::chrono::high_resolution_clock::now();
if (GetKeyState(VK_DOWN) & 0x8000)
{
test.move(0, -3);
}
if (GetKeyState(VK_UP) & 0x8000)
{
test.move(0, 3);
}
if (GetKeyState(VK_RIGHT) & 0x8000)
{
test.move(6, 0);
}
if (GetKeyState(VK_SPACE) & 0x8000)
{
gameObject shell(mydc, "shell.dat");
shell.type = 1;
shell.posX = test.posX + test.l;
shell.posY = test.posY + test.h;
objList[getCurrentId()] = shell;
}
if (loop == false)
{
for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
{
if (objList[i].type == 1)
{
objList[i].move(1, 0);
}
}
}
if (loop == false)
{
loop = true;
}
else
{
loop = false;
}
end = std::chrono::high_resolution_clock::now();
duration = end - start;
if (duration < 0.0333s)
{
std::this_thread::sleep_for(0.0333s - duration);
}
}
}
and here is the 'gameObject' class:
class gameObject
{
public:
gameObject(HDC currentDc, std::string dataFile);
gameObject();
~gameObject();
void clear();
void draw();
void move(int x, int y);
void loadSprite(std::string spriteName);
bool collide(gameObject);
unsigned short h = 1;
unsigned short l = 1;
int posX;
int posY;
unsigned short type;
COLORREF spriteData[256][256];
unsigned short id;
HDC dc;
};

You are creating all your objects on the stack gameObject objList[100];, and each of them has a big array in them COLORREF spriteData[256][256];. That's your stack overflow.
Use a std::vector to store your objects.

A fix to not crash a map created with a multidimensional vector

I am trying to create a map where you as a player can move through the map using up,down,left & right keys and so far im in the right path. What bothers me is that everytime I reach an element outside its vector scope it errors me out saying
vector subscript out of range
and I know what this means so I'm figuring out a solution to solve this but how am I supposed to do this? Making an if statement telling that if it reaches a certain element it should not increment the value of moveY and just return false
This code below me does not work.. :/
bool Map::Player_Pos(float posY, float posX)
{
this->map[posY][posX] = '#';
if (GetAsyncKeyState(0x28))
{
if (moveY == 10)
{
return false;
}
this->map[posY][posX] = '.';
moveY += 1;
}
return true;
}
The problem lies at bool Player_Pos(float posY, float posX); so any suggestions would be really appreciated!
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <Windows.h>
class Map
{
private:
float moveY = 0.f;
float moveX = 0.f;
std::vector<std::vector<char>> map;
public:
Map(int dim1, int dim2, char type)
{
map.resize(dim1, std::vector<char>(dim2, type));
}
bool Update()
{
system("cls");
for (int i = 0; i < map.size(); i++)
{
for (int j = 0; j < map.size(); j++)
{
std::cout << map[i][j];
}
std::cout << '\n';
}
return true;
}
bool Player_Pos(float posY, float posX);
float posY() { return moveY; }
float posX() { return moveX; }
};
bool Map::Player_Pos(float posY, float posX)
{
this->map[posY][posX] = '#';
if (GetAsyncKeyState(0x28))
{
if (moveY == 10) // This does not work! Still keeps going and crashes compiler
{
return false;
}
this->map[posY][posX] = '.';
moveY += 1;
}
return true;
}
int main()
{
Map map = Map(10, 10, '.');
while (true)
{
map.Player_Pos(map.posY(), map.posX()); // Initialize position
map.Update(); // Update map
}
return 0;
}

Invalid use of incomplete type "class"

I know there has been tons of questions like that, but unfortunately after hours of googling and browsing through all of them, none of the answers I read helped.

Sorry for how long the whole thing, but I could not shorten it as I can't locate what causes the error. Also please ignore any TODO's or any lines that are commented out and I forgot to delete them. Please help!
When you forward declare a type, you can only use pointers or references to that type objects, so this line in padding.h is pretty much not compiling:
std::vector<Cell> cells;
I suppose the compiler complaint comes from where it is trying to decide how to build/destroy a Cell object in a vector. To do that, it needs information about the type, generally from the type declaration (i.e. the header file).

Dijkstra's Algorithm issue [repost]

I realized I can't post answers to my own questions because of my low rep or whatever so i deleted my old question and am reasking it. i changed some things and still can't get what i'm looking for.
Here is most of the code
I left out some of the simpler implementations such as parts of the pathFinder class because I know for sure they work, which is why you'll see playerVertex and time just randomly there.
In the example they used a decreaseKey function, I'm not sure if THAT'S what I'm missing? I'm a beginner here, so constructive criticism is welcome. (hopefully as polite as possible) lol. My problem is printing the path, I get a looop of the same two values over and over again.

and i'm not sure about the print path being that. i just used the print path from the BFS algorithm i've implemented before.
Where in your printPath function are you looking for the end of the list?
You keep going verta = verta->pred until the data is not equal to some value.
By the way, don't compare doubles for equality, as it ain't going to happen. See What Every Computer Scientist Should Know About Floating Point.
What happens when you single step with your debugger?

C++ pointer "losing" its value

As an exercise (largely an exercise in trying to write something using pointers), I'm writing a cache simulation, specifically of the pseudo least recently used system from the old 486. I'm getting an "Access violation reading location" error on the line:
int min = treeArray[set]->root->findPLRU();
Initially the treeArray seems to be initialised properly (if I pause the program at the start and take a look, it's all as should be), but when the programme breaks and I delve in to examine things the root of the tree in question isn't defined.
I feel it's quite probable that I'm making some sort of very elementary pointer mistake, which is causing the pointer to the node to be "lost" somewhere, but I've no clue what it might be. Is there something in particular I need to do to "hold on" to a pointer value?

Your question hasn't yet been pounced upon, probably because your code still doesn't compile since you've not provided main.h.
And even then it would annoy most folks trying to help you because you make no mention of the ico0.trace file that is required to prevent the code from immediately exiting.
You say int min = treeArray[set]->root->findPLRU(); access violates.
1) the value of set can never exceed the size n of your treeArray since you & n-1 the range of input values.
2) since your ~Tree() destructor is never called there will always be a treeArray[set]->root
3) since you *always create new left & right nodes whenever leftCacheLine = -1 or rightCacheLine = -1 it cannot be due to recursive findPLRUs
So, the pointer to the node is not being "lost" somewhere; it is being stomped on.
Try replacing:
int min = treeArray[set]->root->findPLRU();
c[min].tag = tag;
c[min].access = access;
with:
int min = treeArray[set]->root->findPLRU();
if (min >= k*n)
{
printf("ook\n");
}
else
{
c[min].tag = tag;
c[min].access = access;
}
and I think you will discover what's doing the stomping. ;)

I think you meant to write gotoxy(0, y) instead of goto(0, y).
goto is a C++ keyword which jumps to a label, for example:
home:
goto home; // Loops forever
Don't use it, though, it's too easy to create spaghetti code.
The goto(0, y) should probably be gotoxy(0, y). goto is a reserved keyword in C and cannot be used as a function name.
I think you meant gotoxy. goto is something else entirely.
