Wireshark Plugin: Is There a non-ntoh Version of tvb_get_ntoh64?

I am writing a Wireshark dissector plugin for a protocol that does not hton it's data, and I need to extract a 64-bit data value without doing any endian conversions. Is there a version of tvb_get_ntoh64 included in the Wireshark libraries that does not do the ntoh? ...

Asynchronous thread-safe logging in C++

I'm looking for a way to do asynchronous and thread-safe logging in my C++ project, if possible to one file. I'm currently using cerr and clog for the task, but since they are synchronous, execution shortly pauses every time something is logged. It's a relatively graphics-heavy app, so this kind of thing is quite annoying. The new logge...

What to name an array of flags?

I have a project where lots of the objects hold state by maintaining simple boolean flags. There are lots of these, so I maintain them within a uint32_t and use bit masking. There are now so many flags to keep track of, I've created an abstraction for them (just a class wrapping the uint32_t) with set(), clear(), etc. My question: Wha...

Wireshark Plugin: Dissecting Payloads With Multiple Packets Per UDP Frame

I am writing a Wireshark plugin to dissect a protocol that places multiple application-level packets in a single UDP frame. There is no enclosing protocol that indicates how many packets there are in the frame. So essentially, the payload coming down the wire will look like this: uint64 sequence1 uint64 data1 uint8 flags1 uint64 s...

Array of char *

Hello, I am having problems with array pointers. I've looked through Google and my attempts are futile so far. What I would like to do is, I have a char name[256]. I will be 10 of those. Hence, I would need to keep track of each of them by pointers. Trying to create a pointer to them. int main() { char superman[256] = "superman";...

C++ member template for boost ptr_vector

Hi there, I'm trying to write a container class using boost::ptr_vector. Inside the ptr_vector I would like to include different classes. I'm trying to achieve that using static templates, but so far I'm not able to do that. For example, the container class is class model { private: boost::ptr_vector<elem_type> elements; public: vo...

Is C really "disguised assembly"?

As a C++ programmer I have now decided to learn C to have "more control" over what I write. Are there any syntactical features in C which lead to rather unpredictable assembler code? Like virtual functions in C++ Is C disguised assembler? I would quite like that idea. ...

Okay, I'm writing a game that has a vector of a pairent class (enemy) that s going to be filled with children classes (goomba, koopa, boss1) and I need to make it so when I call update it calls the childclasses respective update. I have managed to create a example of my problem. #include <stdio.h> class A{ public: virtual vo...

C++ ambiguous template instantiation

the following gives me ambiguous template instantiation with nvcc (combination of EDG front-end and g++). Is it really ambiguous, or is compiler wrong? I also post workaround à la boost::enable_if template<typename T> struct disable_if_serial { typedef void type; }; template<> struct disable_if_serial<serial_tag> { }; template<int M, ...

How to give properties to c++ classes (interfaces)

Hello, I have built several classes (A, B, C...) which perform operations on the same BaseClass. Example: struct BaseClass { int method1(); int method2(); int method3(); } struct A { int methodA(BaseClass& bc) { return bc.method1(); } } struct B { int methodB(BaseClass& bc) { return bc.method2()+bc.method1(); } } struct C {...

C++: Trouble with templates (C2064)

I don't want to recompile all of .NET com object to 64 bit and deliver two sets of DLL's (32 bit and 64 bit). I was investigating and foun...

after XOR operation find C (and XOR reversability)

Assume: unsigned char A = 10; unsigned char B = 11; unsigned char C = 12; unsigned char Diff1 = A ^ B; unsigned char Diff2 = B ^ C; //find any of A or B or C using Diff1 and Diff2 Question is: There were 3 values initially for which we found 2 differences. Is there any way we can find any of A or B or C using 2 differences Diff1 ...
