Error in Code
In Ex8_09.cpp
The problem is with the listnames function. In the book it appears as this:
void listnames(string names[], string ages[], size_t count)
{
size_t i = 0;
cout << endl << "The names you entered are: " << endl;
while(i<count && !names[i].empty())
cout << names[i] + " aged " + ages[i++] + '.' << endl;
}
The suggested correction that works is the following:
void listnames(string names[], string ages[], size_t count)
{
size_t i = 0;
cout << endl << "The names you entered are: " << endl;
while(i<count && !names[i].empty()){
cout << names[i] + " aged " + ages[i] + '.' << endl;
i++;
}
}

Missing Code
the Curve class Draw() function is missing some required things in order to draw a curve correctly. Only the book is missing the code. The book reads:
virtual void Draw(Graphics^ g) override
{
Point previous = Point(0, 0);
for each(Point p in points)
{
g->DrawLine(pen, previous, p);
previous = p;
}
}
this code works, but the curve is drawn starting off screen because the code to translate the coordinates is missing. The book should read:
virtual void Draw(Graphics^ g) override
{
g->TranslateTransform(safe_cast(position.X), safe_cast<float>(position.Y));
Point previous = Point(0, 0);
for each(Point p in points)
{
g->DrawLine(pen, previous, p);
previous = p;
}
g->ResetTransform();
}

Error in Book Code
The downloadable code and the book differ here; the book version of the The penWidthButton_Click function is incorrect.
the book code for the penWidthButton_Click function should read:
private: System::Void penWidthButton_Click(System::Object^ sender, System::EventArgs^ e)
{
if(penDialog->ShowDialog() == System::Windows::Forms::DialogResult::OK)
{
penWidthComboBox->SelectedIndex = safe_cast<int>(penDialog->PenWidth - 1.0f);
penWidthComboBox->Invalidate();
}
