Thanks.

Looks like I should use this http://threadingbuildingblocks.org/ instead of STL.

stl::list<MyType> myList;

void thread1() {
while (!terminateThread1) {
MyType temp;

myList.push_back(temp);
}
}

Got it, Thanks!

Let's say I write a code where program takes an integer from a user and then allocated an array. Like this:



int a;
char *b = 0;
cout << "Size of array: ";
(cin >> a).get();
if (a != 0) b =...

Yeah that's a really good idea. I was thinking of making limit of password and remarks to 1000 characters but, yeah I don't think it is really necessary. I will just make the limit to 255. Thank you...

No good reason, 16 bit BCD can hold 9999 and I needed something that could hold up to 1000, so I thought why not use it. (extremely lame reason, I know) lol Limit is 1000 passwords per database. ...

I said it can be easily guessed because, if user saves less than 100 passwords in the database, the high 8 bits of first 2 bytes BCD will be zero, if between 99 to 200, it will be 1. By looking at...

Database design is really simple. First 2 bytes store the total number of passwords in database in 16 bit BCD format. And next 1 byte tells if encryption is being used or not, user will be able to...

Hello,
I am writing a Password Manager program in C++ which generates and stores passwords in an encrypted database(a file in the hard drive). For encryption algorithm I decided to use Blowfish.

I thought if I use float as data type, compiler would know I am trying to get decimal number. HAHA

Anyway, either I have use give numbers as 1.0f, 2.0f, 3.0f etc etc or typecast it using (float)....

Hello,

if I write:



float a = 50 / 8;


a will be equal to 6. And when I typecast it like this:

Ok, got it. Finally it worked. I needed to keep the ini file in Debug folder. lol

Nope, Igor's code is also giving "id = -1". lol why is this happening?

I did try and specify the full path but didn't work. And I also know GetPrivateProfileInt() API was deprecated in favor of the System Registry APIs, but in this situation, I have to use ini file.
...

Hello,

I am trying to read a ini file but having some problems.

Suppose I have a ini file, "infoDat.ini". It contains:

It's a WINAPI function. Read here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms679277(VS.85).aspx

Hello,

I set the frequency to 700 and time to 1000ms, like this:


Beep(700, 1000);

But I can't hear the beeping sound on my laptop. Why is it? My laptop is Sony Vaio. Do laptops have...

If you want to get Integer from EDIT box, you can use GetDlgItemInt(). This way you don't have to convert char into integer.

Ok, here's a source of sample program I created just now. This is basically how my main projects draws on Window. I wrote it in VC++ 2008 Express Edition IDE:
...

Yes, every drawing on Window goes through WM_PAINT handler, except for two. 1st is where I copy the content of Screen to a compatible DC in WM_LBUTTONDOWN for undo like this:

Hi,

I have made a drawing program in C++ using Win32 API and GDI. User can draw on the window using Mouse just like in Windows Paint. There is also a floating dialog box(modeless) which contains...

Oh, Thank you very much for your reply! :)

Hi again. I am using VC++ 2008 express edition to make my project. I made a release build of it and in the Release folder, there were two files, Executable of the program and a file with. pdb...

Oh! I tried to convert ss.str() to LPARAM and couldn't. Never thought of ss.str().c_str(). Thanks Marc!

I used _itoa since my compiler (VC++ 2008 Express) tells me to use _itoa instead of itoa. I was thinking of using stringstream but found out that it cannot be converted to LPARAM.
