Dynamic Global object question

This is probably straight forward but I can't quite think of how to go about this....

I have a dialog class ADlgClass that uses an object from ObjClass to hold std::lists full of data. I don't want to have a static ObjClass variable in my ADlgClass but I need to have many, many functions of ADlgCLass be able to manipulate data in ObjClass. I tried doing:

PHP Code:

---

 ObjClass MyObj = new ObjClass; 


---

in the ADLgCLass ctor and then destroy it when the OnExit is processed by the dialog I'm getting mucho errors... How do I implement ObjClass so the entire ADlgClass sees it? Am I just a confused newbie??

Thanks

I'm not sure what you mean by mucho errors. But, I am assuming that you declared MyObj as a ptr member in your ADlgClass.

If so, after you instantiate the object (new ObjClass), you should be able to reference it.

class ADlgClass: public ....
{
private:
ObjClass * m_MyObj;
...
};

ADlgClass::ADlgClass()
{
m_MyObj = new ObjClass;

m_MyObj->myfield ...
}

OMG!:eek: Thanks for the reply. I think I see my error... I never declared a ptr to the ObjClass in my ADlgCLass code like this:

PHP Code:

---

 Class ADlgClass: public ....
{
private: ObjClass * m_MyObj; 


---

...that could be a problem eh? THanks for pointing out my problem!
