contructor not allocating array properly?

This is a weird one... not sure why this is happening.

In my .h, in my class, in the public section, I have the following:

Code:

---

  CButton* useme;

---

in my class constructor, I have:

Code:

---

  useme = new CButton[MAX_WARP_TYPES];

---

later in my program, I have:

Code:

---

void myClass::createScreenConfig(CString path,int num)
{
  // ....

  useme[0].Create(_T(""),WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE|BS_CHECKBOX,
                  CRect(rect.left+leftSpace, rect.top+topAdjust+fieldHeight*0,rect.right-3,rect.top+30),
                  this,1500);

}

---

but this causes the following assert from wincore.cpp to fail:
ASSERT(pWnd->m_hWnd == NULL); // only do once

However, if I put the useme = new CButton[MAX_WARP_TYPES];

right in the function, it works correctly. What's going on?

useme[0]->Create

at the point that I'm using it, "useme" points to an array, so useme[x]->func() would be incorrect... being that the subscipt gets you to an actual memory location.

Good lord! :o Sorry about that - kenf and his lumpy spam-for-brains strikes again. :rolleyes:

;)
as it turns out, "createScreenConfig" gets called more than once, and even though I pass "num" in so that I don't create the same thing twice, my test was using [0] instead of [num], so create was getting called twice on the same button.

the fix: useme[num].Create(yada,yada,yada);
