No, don't get me wrong: your example was gold and it was very helpful. Sorry if that didn't come out. What I meant was that you didn't really answer my questions, though the example gave me useful...

Thanks Nuzzle. Your reply was not really spot-on, but it gave me an interesting thing to observe: operator new only takes care of the memory allocation, and not of the construction of the object.

If you downloaded the library as a precompiled lib file for Win32, chances are it was compiled using Visual Studio. You may not be able to use it in Borland C++; but you can get VS Express for free...

Hi everyone! I've been reading many an article on this matter, but I want to make sure I've understood everything correctly. The thing is, that I couldn't find any source that explicitly "validated"...

Nobody has an idea on how to solve this problem? Of course I could load the XML tree and then serialize/deserialize the project myself, but it would be great to use the C# serialization utilities.

I'm trying to code a couple of tools to manage Visual Studio's projects. The reason why I need an external program for that is that 1) I use VS Express, so I have no macro support, and 2) it may be...

hoxsiew: it was in fact a problem of permission... of sort.

As I said I'd do, I tried the same program on my other computer. This one had an almost fresh install of Windows, and I installed VC++...

Hi everyone,

I want to use the RawInput API in my program to handle HIDs. However, I can't even register any device, as RegisterRawInputDevices fails (returns FALSE). When I call GetLastError(), I...

Hi everyone. I hope this has not been asked already; I searched but couldn't find anything.

I'm developping an OpenGL-based graphic application. I would like to have a separate applet to...

Hi everyone.

I'm trying to follow the AJAX paradigm to add to the user experience in my webgame. You can see it here, though only when my PC is on (which is during most of the day, central Europe...

Virtual inherintance, huh? Didn't know it. Your example seems pretty explanatory; could you point me to a good discussion of what it is (especially what drawbacks or hidden traps it has)? Thanks for...

Hi PredicativeNormative! I'll comment on your suggestion before posting an example of code.

What you suggest is one of the solutions I came up with, but lacks a feature I need. The functionality...

Hi everyone! As usual, I come to you with an almost absurd question.

I'm coding some classes for a MIDI application. As probably some of you know, the MIDI channel events (the most commonly used...

Nevermind, I found it myself. It seems there's a known problem with SQL Server 2000 (pre-SP1), where a subquery with computed or aggregate columns causes this error.

Hi everyone! I'm getting an error with this query:


select * from

select
avg(esiti.num_record) as media, count(*) as num_esiti
from

inner join

Thanks Yves! I've checked GLOW out, but couldn't get it to compile (MS VS05). Instead, I tried again and found out that my previous experiments were flawed: one *can* wrap the GLUT in C++, using...

It's not either a structure that revolves around static functions. This is what a typical GLUT program would look like (pure C):


#include <GL/glut.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

void display(void)...

Hi everyone! Here I am again with my best wishes of a happy new year to all the Codeguru people... and with a new happy problem for everyone! :-D

I'm using the GLUT (GL Utility Toolkit, for those...

You can interface the 16f684 to any thing that understands RS-232. Many PIC's can adopt USB too, but if I'm not wrong it depends on the model. You'll have to write the drivers for your device...

You can use the system(char *str) function, which executes the string pointed to by str as if it was typed at the command prompt. Be careful using this as it is a potential source of security holes...

I think it depends a lot on what kind of job you're looking for. My situation is different from yours, as I'm 23 and I'm gonna take the degree in late September while I seem to understand you're some...

So I could look above the ctor till the end of time! Thanks to both of you!

Hi everyone! I'm coding a solar system simulator, and it worked quite good till this morning. I must have done something wrong, but I really can't get what. Maybe a fresh look (or an expert eye ;) )...

I've opened files for reading and writing with no problems, but I never tried to do it in special folders like Program Files. In "normal" directories it should be everything as usual.

I can tell you why. Usually, the academic programming courses are about C, and OOP courses teach Java. When one starts using C++, nobody teaches him about the STL and the containers, so he goes on...
