how to destroy all instances of CRunObjType* pMyType

given CRunObjType* pMyType,

how can I destroy all instances of pMyType?

assuming that no picking of any kind has been done

Call VRuntime::GetTypeInstances to get a list of the instances in that type, then call VRuntime::DestroyObject on each of them.

I know you don't have time to teach me c++, ash

but honestly, I just need to get around this so I can get the other bitmap text stuff done on my weekend

I'll be learning about vectors on a later date,

but I just need to destroy all instances, so if anyone, ashley or otherwise

wants to help me out with

GetTypeInstances(CRunObjType* pType,  CRunObject**& instancesList, int& count)[/code:27394pvf]
I'm pretty much lost on the whole thing
I get that I need to pass it a pointer to a pointer to a CRunObject, but I'm really just shooting in the dark reading through the sprite plugin, and trying to speed learn vectors

given pType, and an int named count
how do I set up a loop iterating through all the instances?

It has nothing to do with vectors

CRunObject** instances;
int count;
pRuntime->GetTypeInstances(pType, instances, count);

if (instances != NULL) {
	CRunObject** i = instances;
	CRunObject** end = instances + count;

	for ( ; i != end; ++i)
		pRuntime->DestroyObject(*i);
}[/code:f76xay8n]

thanks ash, you rock

I was totally lost in the sprite collision test vector iteration Sol modification code

now I can finish the rest of this plugin, and I'll have time to read my c++ pdfs
