    Re: unsigned long vs long

    2^N - 1 for unsigned
    2^(N - 1) - 1 for signed

    Re: unsigned long vs long

    I think neither is particularly better than the other.

    long is a 32-bit value, which means if you use the signed version you will be limited to handling files up to 2GB in size, or 4GB if you use...

    Re: Simple question - mem addresses

    Why would current and head have the same address? They are two different variables, what they point to is irrelevant. I think you are mistakenly using the address-of operator when you don't mean to.

    Re: Capitalize a String in C++

    Not really. You've only given a small part of your code and it's hard to say what's really going on, especially since this code is working with file IO.

    Re: Opcodes in C++

    I suppose you could do something like this:



    int main()
    {
    const char* code = "\x90\x90\x90\x90";
    void (*foo)(void) = (void (*)(void))code;
    foo();
    }

    Re: Lambda issues in VS2010

    Figures. This is after all the reason I've distanced myself from Microsoft in the first place.

    Lambda issues in VS2010

    So, I'm used to using GCC by now, but unfortunately I'm stuck working with Visual Studio at the moment. For some reason, this code works just fine in GCC, but fails to compile in Visual Studio.
