In C++, I have a few functions that need to write to a temp directory. Ideally, only one temp directory gets created that they all write to (to minimize I/O overhead). That directory should be automagically removed when the program exits.
However, I don't want to deal with creation and removal of the temp directory in the main function ...

Hi,
I'm new to python, so please excuse what is probably a pretty dumb question.
Basically, I have a single global variable, called _debug, which is used to determine whether or not the script should output debugging information. My problem is, I can't set it in a different python script than the one that uses it.
I have two scripts:...
What's the best practise for storing global variables in a VB.NET WinForms app. For example when a user logs into an app you may want to store a CurrentUser object which can be accessed throughout the app. You could store this as an object in a module or create a class which contains members for all the required globals, you would still ...
I have this code here:

I am having small problem in making a global variable works. I am using Visual Studio 2008 and standard C++.
I have two projects, one is a static library and second one is a test program which uses this library. I have a global variable in global.h like
#ifndef GLOBAL_H
#define GLOBAL_H
#include <string>

Ok, so that title probably doesn't explain my question well. Hopefully this makes sense. This is also my first application with jQuery, so forgive me if I'm doing something dumb.

function getRandomImages(limit) {
imagesArray = new Array();
$.getJSON('createImageArray.php', {limit: limit}, function...
Let's say I have a class like this:
class MonkeyFish
{
MonkeyFish( GlobalObjectA
private:
GlobalObjectA
GlobalObjectB
GlobalObjectC
}
Without a factory, I need to do the following in order to instantiated a MonkeyFish.
GlobalObjectA a;
GlobalObjectB b;
GlobalObjectC c;
int main()
{

Currently I'm writing an app. If I want to avoid Singletons, do I have to simply pass references of everything around?
For example,
I have a "main" class.
Class: Main

+---- Camera
+---- Terrain
+---- Vehicle
+---- PhysicsWorld
It contains my Camera, Terrain, and Vehicle,etc classes. Now, I have issues when I'm creating...
I have a template matrix class class defined in a header called "Matrix.h".
Certain matrices are used repeatedly in my program. I thought that I would define these in the "Matrix.h" header file, like so:
const Matrix<GLfloat> B_SPLINE_TO_BEZIER_MATRIX(4, 4, values);
When I do this g++ complains that I redefined the constant in questi...
Hello Stackoverflow,
I'm programming a game in Python, where all IO activities are done by an IO object (in the hope that it will be easy to swap that object out for another which implements a different user interface). Nearly all the other objects in the game need to access the IO system at some point (e.g. printing a message, updating...

Hi all
I'm creating a 2d tile based sim game.
I have a 2d array of gridSquares, which are accessed and changed from many different classes and methods.
Should I pass the 2d array of gridSquares each time, or make it a global? Which is best practice?
I was thinking, would it be an option to create a class which just contains a set of va...
I have a C++ program that crashed due to a bug. It would not even get to main as a NULL pointer was accessed in one of its static global object's contructor functions. To make matters worse the pointer was NULL but should have been set by another global static variable. I think I can wrap those globals in a function that sets global p...
