Hello, I've been having some trouble with file streams crashing root on my WinNT workstation when they're loaded into the CInt interpreter and called. For example file test.cpp --------------------- class test { public: test() {}; void openit(char *filename); }; #include <fstream.h> void test::openit(char *filename) { ifstream mystream; mystream.open(filename); }; ---------------------- root [0] .L test.cpp; root [1] test mytest; root [2] mytest.openit("some_junk_file.txt"); --->MessageBox appears with ! root.exe - Application Error ! X The instruction at "0x002bc5ed" referenced memory at 0xffffffff, The memory ! could not be "read". Also, I'm confused about the following error. file test.cpp --------------------- class track { public: float x; float y; }; class test { public: test(); void openit(char *filename); track returnit(float xa, float xb); }; #include <fstream.h> void test::openit(char *filename) { ifstream mystream; mystream.open(filename); } trace returnit(float xa, float xb) { track t; t.x = xa; t.y = xb; return t; } -------------------- file maintest.cpp -------------------- { test mytest; track mytrack; mytrack = mytest.returnit(5,6); } root [0] .L test.cpp; root [1] .L maintest.cpp; Error: class,struct,union or type unknown not defined FILE.maintest.cpp LINE:4 *** Interpreter error recovered *** The following, however, does work. root [0] .L test.cpp root [1] test mytest; root [2] track mytrack; root [3] mytrack = mytest.returnit(5,6); Does anyone have any suggestions? Do I need to compile these with MSVC and link to ROOT instread? What am I not reading in the root http pages which would help me stand on my own roots? I really dislike bothering people with my programming difficulties. William J. Deninger deninger@uiuc.edu
