That sounds like a good compromise Igor, thanks. :thumb:

I work on a project that I currently build with the traditional MSVC IDE. But the company I work for wants me to look into building future versions with waf. This is mostly for consistency. It's a...

For my own code I probably could but I'm more concerned about existing header files (i.e. someone else's files) which might be conditionally including stuff, depending on whether DEBUG is or isn't...

I'm building a library that was originally written to be compiled with gcc (I'm using MSVC). Most of the functions look something like this:-


void the_function_name ()
{
assert ( <whatever>...

Thanks, tha's exactly what I was looking for!

I'm following one of those "Teach Yourself" books and I'd scoured the index looking for words like "include", "import", "sources", "modules" etc etc...

Suppose I have a bunch of Perl scripts and they all need some code lines that will be identical in every script. Is there anything similar to #include as seen in C and C++?

In this particular...

Groan.... I think this might be a problem with the script iself... :(

I wrote this very simple Perl script and all four lines printed out exactly as expected:-

I'm using a (pre-existing) script to generate a text file. In fact, it's a C++ header file. At the top of the file I'd like to add this text, which can be added by passing a parameter (to the script)...

ejohns85 - I'm not sure if it'll be relevant in your case but I just stumbled upon this MSDN article which might help you.

Apparently, if your project is on a FAT32 drive there can be a 2 second...

Snap! I learned quite a lot from Ivor Horton. You won't go far wrong with his books.

C++ is definitely the language you should be learning but I wouldn't recommend you to dive straight into a DAW. That's a bit like looking for a career in boat building but wanting to build an ocean...

Hi Trock and welcome to the forums. As it happens, I'm a DAW developer myself. I work on Harrison's Mixbus DAW. I don't want to put you off but DAWs are complex, heavy duty programs with thousands of...

Thanks D Drmmr. I took your advice and examined all the relevant projects but no matter how closely I looked I just couldn't see anything wrong. However, by renaming libs and DLLs I eventually...

One of my apps links to a DLL which uses the standard containers (std::vector etc). I recently noticed that my compiler (VS2005) has an option to build with iterator debugging. From what I can...

This is rather crude but it seems to work unless anyone's got a more elegant solution....

Technically, this isn't a server side question but it is a Perl question and this seems to be the only Perl forum here!

I want to specify part of a Perl script such that it will only get executed...

I'm getting some unresolved externals while linking a C++ project. They all look something like this:-



Note the name of the file that's complaining (glibmm-vc80-d-2_4.exp). I'm used to seeing...

Perhaps one of your source files (most likely a header file) has got a date that's in the future. So no matter when you do a build, that file will always appear to be newer than the object files that...

Igor - wouldn't that just install the non-Debug CRT? It's the Debug CRT that I need. I assumed it must have gotten installed via one of my VS service packs but I must be wrong about that because...

I think this might be the procedure although I haven't had a chance to try it yet.

In theory, yes - if I could determine which DLLs. Normally, when there's a missing DLL, you get a message saying something like "XYZ failed to start because MSVCRT80D.dll wasn't found on your...

Where / how do I obtain a particular version of the Debug CRT? Specifically, I'm looking for DebugCRT 8.50727.6195. Only one of my development machines has it and the others don't (although I think...

Thanks. I tried that a little earlier and it compiled OK. However, it would give me a non-standard API - which isn't a massive problem and I'd probably do it that way if there was any danger but for...

Good point. I wouldn't have thought of that....

It looks reasonably safe (I think). It just wraps a standard 'C' function (which returns a GdkWindow*). That's then used to create a Glib::RefPtr...

I might have answered my own question... this seems to do the trick (at least it compiles. anyway)
