Hi all, In my continuing adventure with templates, I've templated my Container class not just on the ItemType it holds, but also on a Functor argument that determines how it should order the items. So far, so good. A little problem I've run into occurs when I want to copy the contents of one Container to another: If the two Container...
In C++, when a class inherits other class, if I create an object for the subclass, then will the subclass object create memory for all data members and member functions for the superclass, too? ...
In d3d9types.h in the _D3DRENDERSTATETYPE struct the last 3 types are: D3DRS_SRCBLENDALPHA = 207, /* SRC blend factor for the alpha channel when D3DRS_SEPARATEDESTALPHAENABLE is TRUE */ D3DRS_DESTBLENDALPHA = 208, /* DST blend factor for the alpha channel when D3DRS_SEPARATEDESTALPHAENABLE is TRUE */ D3DRS_BLEN...
Hi all, though I haven't worked with sockets professionally, I find them interesting. I read some part of Unix Network Programming by Richard Stevens (considered to be the Bible I suppose as it is referred by everyone I ask) but the problem is the examples require a universal header unp.h which is a PIA to use. Can some of you suggest ...

Hi All, By using CMFCPropertyGridProperty::GetValue I'm able to get the contents of the property grid. I have one property though that gets the font, where when you click on it, shows a dialog box to select the font, size and style. Using this code: CMFCPropertyGridProperty* pCurSel = m_wndPropList.GetCurSel(); CString test = pCurSe...
This is a simplified version of some code I'm currently maintaining: int SomeFunc() { const long lIndex = m_lCurrentIndex; int nSum = 0; nSum += m_someArray[lIndex]; nSum += m_someArray[lIndex]; return nSum; } lCurrentIndex is updated periodically by another thread. The question is; will making a local copy of m_CurrentInd...
Hello, I'm having some trouble finding a tool for verifying if a code respects certain coding rules. For example I want to make sure of things like the following: class names start with a C class member names start with m_ global variables should start with g_ static variables should start with s_ comments should follow the doxygen r...

I have a class hierarchy where I know that a given class (B) will always be derived into a second one (D). In B's constructor, is it safe to statically cast the this pointer into a D* if I'm sure that nobody will ever try to use it before the entire construction is finished? In my case, I want to pass a reference to the object to yet ano...
Why it is recommended not to have data members in virtual base class? What about function members? If I have a task common to all derived classes is it OK for virtual base class to do the task or should the derived inherit from two classed - from virtual interface and plain base that do the task? Thanks. ...

Hello, I am working in MFC and I am trying to capture a bmp of the desktop. I am using GetDC(NULL) to do this but it seems it ignores special skinned windows.

We have a template conversion function intended for use with numeric datatypes. Inside it contains a construct that makes it not compile with types like pointers. template<class To, class From> To ConvertTo( From what ) { assert( 2 * what == what * 2 ); // this will not compile for pointers //skipped } This function compiles a...
As discussed here, a static variable is stored in the .BSS or .DATA segment. Where is this memory stored if the static variable is inside a function that's in a dynamically linked library ? Does storage for this variable get allocated in the .BSS or .DATA segment of the linking process at the time of linkage ? ...
