Visual C++ 2008 & 2010 Tutorial: Login System (Part 2 HD)

[WhiteWaterMedia]

Hey, i keep getting the same 5 errors no matter what i do, i get up to 05:14 in this video and i am done, as i do not need to hide anything in form1. But, it keeps telling me that: welcomeform and Form2 are undeclared indentifiers and syntax error on Form2. any help?

[monsterhunter445]

@WhiteWaterMedia Did you use the #include directive to include both the forms that keep giving you those errors.

[WhiteWaterMedia]

@monsterhunter445 yeah i fixed it now thanks, great tutorial by the way, could you help me with something else as i can't find help anywhere. i'm wanting to redistribute my application, but i have no idea how to, i have had a look at what DLLs i need through Depends, but it comes up with hundreds of the little bastards. Could you take me through it step by step? just as you obviously know more than me, i'll put you in my subscribers box too. Thankyou. Again, Amazing tutorial

[monsterhunter445]

@WhiteWaterMedia First set your compiler to compile in release mode. On the toolbar you should see Debug and x86 just change that to Release and x86. Then once you have compiled look for the program or DLL in the bin folder. Which is somewhere in your project folder. Then if your program is a .Net program then people will have to .Net framework installed. Just tell your users to to download Visual C++ Redistributable. Which it should be available in the Microsoft website.

@monsterhunter445 Thank you SO MUCH :'D DEFINATELY GOING IN MY SUBSCRIBERS BOX :')

@monsterhunter445 urmm, i don't have the compile option, i do, but it can't be clicked, so i can't find the .dll's in the bin folder. Any help with that too?

@monsterhunter445 I CAN' GET ANYTHING TO WORK!! ;__; i wrote EXACTLY as you did in EVERY part but when i click on either the Log In button or the "create account" NOTHING happends ;__; ALL i can do is to click on an Exit Button that i added DDD: Please help me as fast as you can ;(

[monsterhunter445]

@kaiokkanonen Private message me and I will give you my email and send me the source code I will evaluate it and tell you what you did wrong because you must have made a tiny mistake. You can also get programming help from my website but you must create an account. Either way will help you.

I have a error saying : Error C1075: end of file found before the left brace '{' at 'c:\documents and settings\#######\os meus documentos\visual studio 2010\projects\login form\login form\Form1.h(3)' was matched

The # is personal. Can anyone Help me, please

[monsterhunter445]

@TheMindWare This error is not that hard to fix, but basically you have curly brace that is unmatched for example.

if (predicate)

{

}

} // <- This curly brace does not match so remove it.

[TheMindWare]

@monsterhunter445 Thanks Man, i'm only starting.

[NikiProgrammer]

Would be alot easier to follow guide if your mouse was where you clicked :P

[TheMindWare]

@NikiProgrammer Yeh, the mouse isn't in the right place

[monsterhunter445]

@TheMindWare The reason that occurs is because I am using the magnifier glass while recording that is why the mouse is not exactly where it should be. Anyhow, if I did not use the magnifying glass people would complain that they cannot see what is going on.

[Mariuspersem]

Custom mouse pointer? That's gay...

[rennerkyle]

[rennerkyle]

i got errors please help me. visual c++\login system\login system\Form1.h(248): error C2440: '=' : cannot convert from 'System::String ^' to 'bool'

and \visual c++\login system\login system\Form1.h(249): warning C4390: ';' : empty controlled statement found; is this the intent?

[monsterhunter445]

@rennerkyle Can you please show me the lines of code that produce those compiler errors?

[rennerkyle]

@monsterhunter445 i'll message the codes and everything.

[szigeti32eduard]

I don't know why I cannot include form2 in my application.

[monsterhunter445]

@szigeti32eduard Did you forget to include the header file by using the preprocessor directive #include.

Example:

#include "Form2.h"

[szigeti32eduard]

@szigeti32eduard

Of course that I did like this but even when I click alt+right arrow I don't see the Form2 on the drop-down menu

your tutorials and amazing :D could you try zooming in a little tho .... its hard to see some letters :/

[xXScissorHandsXx]

Is the passwordtxtbox->Text the same as passwordtxtbox.text?

[Androslav]

@xXScissorHandsXx

I think that -> mean assignig something to a pointer

[monsterhunter445]

@xXScissorHandsXx (->) Is a pointer to a member, while the (.) is a pointer to an object. For example here is pointer to object: struct Point { int x, int y}; Point pt; pt.x = 100; pt.y = 100; Here is an example of pointer to member; Point * pt; // (*) is a pointer, in native c++ while in managed c++ it is a (^) pt->x = 100; pt->y = 100;
