Is there any way to force visual studio to link all symbols from a lib file into the dll as atm it is optimizing "unused" functions which are needed by the program using the dll at run time. I tried using the /OPT:NOREF and /OPT:NOICF but they dont seem to work. The reason i need them is because they are global class which register th...
Is there a semaphone that works like a Chess timer, meaning; Thread A completes its task, loops back up to the top and calls the Semaphore This triggers Thread 2 which proceeds through its code, loops back up to the top and calls the Semaphore This triggers Thread A which... So the Semaphore is both blocking and signaling. I know I ...
Hi, I wrote this code in Processing (www.processing.org) and was wondering how would one implement it using C++? int i = 0; void setup() { size(1000,1000); } void draw() { // frameRate(120); PImage slice = get(); set(0,20,slice); if( i % 2 == 0 ) fill(128); else fill(0); i++; rect(0,0,width,20); } As you can see this...

I decided to familiarize myself with wxWidgets today. I downloaded version 2.8.9 (current release), and compiled the library in all the desired modes. I am able to build/run the samples that ship with wxWidgets out of the box. However, when I compile with /Za (i.e., language extensions disabled), I get over 100 build errors on even the ...
Hi, I'm working on my first XPCOM component. Unfortunately, I can't register it successfully. Building is ok. Here's the makefile CXX = g++ CPPFLAGS += -fno-rtti \ -fexceptions \ -shared \ -fshort-wchar # Change this to point at your Gecko SDK directory. GECKO_SDK_PATH = /path/to/gecko/sdk # GCC onl...
I'm using SOIL in my project, and I need to take in a single texture, and than convert it into an array of textures using different parts of the first texture. (To use a sprite sheet). I'm using SDL and OpenGL by the way. ...
I've been programming for a while but It's been mostly Java and C#. I've never actually had to manage memory on my own. I recently began programming in C++ and I'm a little confused as to when I should store things on the stack and when to store them on the heap. My understanding is that variables which are accessed very frequently shou...
In fact i am trying to calculate the time a function takes to complete in my program. So i am using the logic to get system time when i call the function and time when the function returns a value then by subtracting the values i get time it took to complete. So if anyone can tell me some better approach or just how to get system time at...
Hi. I'm trying to build a project in Visual Studio 2008. I'm getting a bunch of linker errors that are really bothering me. My application is a Win32 console application using only native ANSI C++. They are all linker errors of the same pattern. Linker errors are related to every single private static data member of classes I have defin...
I've learned the essentials of C++ and would like to learn Visual C++ (VC++) I want to be master in native , MFC and .NET for Windows programming. I already bought a book on VC++ by Ivor Horton. But the language seems hard to understand. Does anyone have any better book recommendations? ...
Is it OK to have a static member variable defined in a base class, and having several derived classes each using its own instance of this member variable? The following code compiles successfully, and prints the right output, but I am still not sure that doing something like that is a good practice. In the following example, how can it ...
I've got a static map of identifier<=>struct pairs, and each struct should contain some arrays. Everything is known at compile time. That is, I want to have something like this here: ID1 => name: someString flagCount: 3 flags: [1, 5, 10] statically created (if possible). Of course, a declaration like: struct Info { ...
Hi, i came across a function definition: char* abc(char *f, ...) { } i am finding it hard to know how this code is working... what do the three dots mean?? Thanks. ...

Is there a function for FILE (fopen?) that allows me to just read one int from a binary file? So far I'm trying this, but I'm getting some kind of error I can't see cause the program just crashes without telling me. void opentest() { FILE *fp = fopen("dqmapt.mp", "r"); int i = 0; int j = 0; int k = 0; int * buffer; ...
The "method" implementation says istringstream get int get(); Extracts a character from the stream and returns its value (casted to an integer). I wanted to see its implementation. Edit:Removed the part which I am trying to port ...
I need to designe predicate for stl algorithms such as find_if, count_if. namespace lib { struct Finder { Finder( const std::string& name ): name_( name ) { } template< typename TElement > bool operator( const TElement& element ) { return element.isPresent(...
I have two threads that use an event for synchronization. In each thread they use the same call: ::CreateEvent( NULL,TRUE,FALSE,tcEventName ) The producer thread is the one that makes the call first, while the consumer thread makes the call last, so it's technically opening, not creating the event... I assume. But, when SetEvent is c...
