C++ help plz

[WiLD]

hi all,
im kinda new to c++ im only really good in vb. but i was looking at some source codes of bots (c++) and i did find some errors so i fixed them up but 1 i just cant get it to work here it is: at the top of wild.cpp i have #include <Connection.h>  it was "Connection.h" but that caused errors so i just changed it to <Connection.h>. But when i click compile  it says Connection.h cant be found. I no its a existing file because its in the same folder so what should i do?
and remember im new 2 c++ so kinda make it simple 2 read

I justed edited this to show u wats in wild.cpp

Code Select Expand

#include <Connection.h>
#include <conio.h>

void main()
{
   BinaryBot *Bot = new WiLD BinaryBot;
   strcpy(Bot->username, "Usernmae");
   strcpy(Bot->password, "Pssword");
   strcpy(Bot->cdkey, "CD-key");
   strcpy(Bot->statstring, "WiLD ChaT");
   strcpy(Bot->homechannel, "Clan VioLaToRz");
   if(Bot->Connect("211.233.0.73"))
   {
      Bot->Output->WriteEx(ConsoleOutput::YELLOW, "Connected To B.net!\n");
      Bot->Startup();
   }
   else
      Bot->Output->WriteEx(ConsoleOutput::RED, "Connection Failed!");
   delete Bot;
   getch();
}

}

First off, it's int main() not void main(). Second, You need to #include "Connection.h" not <Connection.h> Third you need to lose "WiLD" in BinaryBot *Bot = new WiLD BinaryBot;

ok thank you, but now im getting a extra error.
i still got the same error as before but i also have this one on line 4.

Line  |  Unit

hm maybe i should learn C++

[Zakath]

Perhaps you shouldn't rip off DarkMinion's work, also.

The source you're copying from isn't functional...and hasn't been for a long time. Moreover, it's very bad form to just insert your name in places like that.

[WiLD]

if u had havd read my first post i said it wasnt my source im learning. i wasnt going to relese it. i just want to learn c++. and i cant find ne GOOF decent tutorials on the net

[Zakath]

I'm afraid that looking at DM's source isn't gonna be very helpful for just starting out. He used a number of fairly advanced concepts in creating even that rather primitive vLBBot - classes, dynamic memory allocation, a custom string library...try to find a more conventional source of inspiration if you can - it'll be much easier to understand.

I recommend this to you... and if you say its lame I will strangle you and cut off your nads and feed them raw to the dogs.. kthx

First off, it's int main() not void main().

what's wrong with void main() ?

void main() doesn't exist in C or C++.  It's a nonstandard compiler extension.

[WiLD]

well thx about all, and i will have a look at that c++ in 21 days. i also learnt several new things today =)
just 1 quick quetion that no 1 in me chanel would help me with is:
szName = the %s before hand right....
and wat does \n\r mean i no its a varible but of like wat does it do..

Thx alot.

[MrRaza]

you really need to buy a book and read it.

\n == New Line
\r == Return

there's alot mmore.

[Banana fanna fo fanna]

This is why people shouldn't start with VB.

[WiLD]

dont you mean SHOULD start with vb storm?

well thx raza.

because all the sources iv looked at i always see \n\r so that helps me alot. mmm FINAL LAST THING: do you have to put \n on every line? and \r means return but return to wat is it like return aka enter?

[Starnaught]

\n = new line
\r = carriage return

\n puts the cursor on the next line
\r returns the cursor to the leftmost position
