I have the following decleration in file Order.h (Holdng class Order) :
void removeFromAlbum(int barcode);
and the following Implementation line:
void Order::removeFromAlbum(int barcode)
But, when im trying to call the function with a different file, Store.cpp (Order.h was included) with the following line :
order.removeFromAlbum(barcode);
I get the following error from eclipse :
Invalid arguments '
Candidates are:
void removeFromAlbum(int)
'
Eclipse is well defined.
Any suggestions ?
Edit :
This is the function when all the magic happens :
void Store::removeFromOrder(int ordNum, int barcode)
barcode is an int.
EDIT: Before the OP's edit, it was impossible to tell if barcode was an integer. This answer may, therefore, be invalid:
It looks like you're trying to call the function removeFromAlbum() with a type that isn't an int. Ensure that barcode is actually cast as an int.

I am having an issue with my C++ code for converting a string of numbers in base b to another base n. My error is as follows:
cannot convert ‘std::__cxx11::string {aka std::__cxx11::basic_string<char>}’ to ‘char*’ for argument ‘1’ to ‘int base_to_decimal(char*, int)’
I am using g++ to compile, and I have been for a while, so I thought at first I knew what the issue was. It says that the method base_to_decimal accepts two arguments: one of type char* and one of type int. So all I should have to do to fix my issue is change the char* argument to a string, right?
Well, I looked, and the code for the function in question is:
int base_to_decimal(std::string input_base, int base)
So this method SHOULD be expecting a string, but for some reason when I pass in a string, it gets angry at me.
If someone could help me figure this out, that would be fantastic. I am using g++ 7.3.0, and running all this on Linux Mint 19.1.

You've written a custom declaration on line 46 of your main:
int base_to_decimal(char * input_base, int base)
But in the functions file where you've defined your function, you have:
int base_to_decimal(std::string input_base, int base)
This is why you should not write in-line declarations for external functions, but instead put the declarations in a header file. #include in the file where the function is later defined, ensures that the definition matches the declaration that the other files are expecting. And likewise, it enforces that all those other files are trying to use the function the way it's actually coded.
I have this really simple line of code in my production-code(A.cpp) as follows:
std::string A::getString(int i) {
return sVect_[i];
}
with the header as follows:
class A{
public:
std::string getString(int i);
...
private:
vector<std::string> sVect_;
...
};
I've been trying to test the getString() function using googletest but an error keeps popping out:
error: invalid conversion from 'char* (*)(const char*, int)throw ()' to 'int'
error: initializing argument 1 of 'std::string A::getString(i)'
This was my test program:
TEST(ATest, getString){
A a;
EXPECT_EQ("c", a.getString(i));
}
I couldn't quite grasp the workaround of the vector string and how to call it in my test program without ever changing the production code. I even use the hack, adding #define statements, to access the private member but still couldn't do it.
How do my test actually looks like to successfully call that function?
Note: I'm on Linux and using gcc. Thank you in advance guys.
Perhaps the error message is misleading. Have you defined i globally somewhere else? To me it looks like in the local scope because it does not know what the value of the variable i is, it is misbehaving in an unexpected way
TEST(ATest, getString){
A a;
EXPECT_EQ("c", a.getString(i)); //here what is the 'i' and where is it defined
}
I'm trying to wrap a c++ function called i_receive() by following this tutorial, I first created a wrap.c file, the content of this file is like this:
int i_receive(const uint32_t *f, int32_t t){
static int (*real_i_receive)(const uint32_t *, int32_t)=NULL;
printf("hello world");
return real_i_receive;
}
I compiled this file with gcc -fPIC -shared -o wrap.so wrap.c -ldl, when I used the LD_PRELOAD to run some C++ code with LD_PRELOAD=/full/path/to/wrap.so ./mycppcode I got this message:
ERROR: ld.so: object '/full/path/to/wrap.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored`.
I was guessing the reason might be that the wrap file is a C file, and I'm using it with C++ code, am I right?
I changed the file to wrap.cc with the same content, when compiling in the same way as before, I got:
ERROR: invalid conversion from 'int (*)(const uint32_t*, int32_t)' to 'int'
First of all, your 2nd error your are getting becase you are returning a Pointer to function type instead of a int type.
If you want to return an int, call the function from the code :
return real_i_receive(f,t);
Notice the "()" which means a function call.
Regarding your guess : it doesn't matter if you are using C or C++ code, the libaries are all assembly code.
One difference between exporting C functions and C++ functions is the name mangling. You would rather export a function as a C function to be able to access it inside your library through unmagled name.
To export a function without name mangling it, you can use extern "C" .
Replace
return real_i_receive;
with
return real_i_receive(f, t);
As it is, the return type of your function is int but you're returning a function pointer.
I am trying to call a function named characterSelection(SDL_Surface *screen, struct SelectionneNonSelectionne sel) which returns a void
This is the .h of the function I try to call:
struct SelectionneNonSelectionne;
void characterSelection(SDL_Surface *screen, struct SelectionneNonSelectionne);
void resetSelection(SDL_Surface *screen, struct SelectionneNonSelectionne);
On my main function, I try to call it like this:
characterSelection(screen, SelectionneNonSelectionne);
When I compile, I have the message:
error: expected primary-expression before ')' token
I made the includes. I suppose I miscall the second argument, my struct. But, I can't find why on the net.
Have you got any idea about what I did wrong?
You should create a variable of the type SelectionneNonSelectionne.
struct SelectionneNonSelectionne var;
After that pass that variable to the function like
characterSelection(screen, var);
The error is caused since you are passing the type name SelectionneNonSelectionne
A function call needs to be performed with objects. You are doing the equivalent of this:
// function declaration/definition
void foo(int) {}
// function call
foo(int); // wat!??
i.e. passing a type where an object is required. This makes no sense in C or C++. You need to be doing
int i = 42;
foo(i);
or
foo(42);
You're passing a type as an argument, not an object. You need to do characterSelection(screen, test); where test is of type SelectionneNonSelectionne.
I seen this problem with the latest nightly build of Code::Blocks. When I switched back to the stable release of Code::Blocks, 20.03 at the time of this writing, the problem went away and my code compiled and ran without problems. I'm not sure what Code::Blocks is doing, but it is very annoying. I got this repeatedly on a C++ project for every NULL in my code, forcing me to use nullptr instead.
I have a problem compiling a c++ program with gcc version 4.6.3; I can compile this program with microsoft compiler (v 9.0) without problems.
This program is using some of my libraries I always used with microsoft compiler.
problem is when I try to pass a reference as argument that is a subtype of another: pseudo example here:
class ObjManager{..}
class SubObjMng : public ObjManager{
public:
inline SubObjMng() : ObjManager(0, ... ){}
};
class Test{
public:
Test(int i, ObjManager &obj_mng);
}
int main(){
SubObjMng myobjmng;
Test t(0, myobjmng); //GCC ERROR HERE
}
output of the error is (real output for my program):
globals.h:227:40: error: no matching function for call to cdk::HashMap::HashMap(unsigned int, cdk::PtrObjMng, cdk::cstrObjMng)
globals.h:227:40: note: candidates are:
contrib/cdklib/cdk_struct.h:485:12: note: cdk::HashMap::HashMap(uint32_t, cdk::ObjManager&, cdk::ObjManager&)
contrib/cdklib/cdk_struct.h:485:12: note: no known conversion for argument 2 from cdk::PtrObjMng to cdk::ObjManager&
anyone can help?
thanks!
cdk::PtrObjMng should inherit from cdk::ObjMng, making polymorphism possible through references. Otherwise this is a no-go according to what the compiler says.
Of course this might not be the root of your problem, I wish we could see the implementation of your constructor.
