I'm having a problem using XML literals with a StringBuilder in VB 2008. If I use this code everything is fine. Dim html As New System.Text.StringBuilder html.Append(<html><body></body></html>) MsgBox("hello") Now the problem is I want to wrap HTML around something that is generated in code. html.Append(<html><body>) msgbox("nothi...
Today, I was trying to cast a hard-coded value into a short and S did not work. So, I went to search for it, but I realized that I do not even know what this feature of Java's syntax is called. Is there a name for it? If not, is there at least a list of all of the possible ways to cast hard-coded numeric values? Epilouge After getting ...
I have some ancient memories of writing C code like: long value = 0; in the bad old Win16 days and ending up with value being only half-initialized: i.e. the lower 16 bits were 0 and the upper 16 bits were whatever random bits were at that location in memory. As such, I became conditioned to write: long value = 0L; Is this still re...

Hi, I have a small sample function: #define VALUE 0 int test(unsigned char x) { if (x>=VALUE) return 0; else return 1; } My compiler warns me that the comparison (x>=VALUE) is true in all cases, which is right, because x is an unsigned character and VALUE is defined with the value 0. So I changed my code to: if ( ((sign...
I have users enter info into a textarea that's been set to runat-"server" and that is 600px wide on 1 page. When they click a button the contents are supposed to show on the second page. I've tried displaying them as both aliteral and div. But in both cases, even if I put controls in a table and set the width of the table and columns to ...
Hi everyone, I am trying to replace the backslash (escape) character in a Javascript string literal. I need to replace it with a double backslash so that I can then do a redirect: var newpath = 'file:///C:\funstuff\buildtools\viewer.html'.replace(/\\/g,"\\"); window.location = newpath; However, it seems to have no result. I don't...
We are processing IBMEnterprise Japanese COBOL source code. The rules that describe exactly what is allowed in G type literals, and what are allowed for identifiers are unclear. The IBM manual indicates that a G'....' literal must have a SHIFT-OUT as the first character inside the quotes, and a SHIFT-IN as the last character before the...
Why is java.lang.String the only class for which two ways of creation exist: 1) With normal way with "new" keyword. String s = new String("abc"); 2) With String literal (which is only available with String class) String s = "abc"; So why are there String literals and no literals for any other classes?? ...

With this method declaration (no overloads): void Method(double d) { // do something with d } Is there a (performance) difference at runtime between void Main() { Method(1); Method(1.0); } or does the compiler automatically convert the int literal to a double? ...
Does .Net have any built in constants for common numbers like million, billion etc? EDIT: As has been suggested this was for readability reasons, rather than writing 1000000 or 1000000000. I know I can create my own just wanted to check that they didnt already exist before I did so. ...
When you create an integer with leading zeros, how does c handle it? Is it different for different versions of C? In my case, they just seem to be dropped (but maybe that is what printf does?): #include <stdio.h> int main() { int a = 005; printf("%i\n", a); return 0; } I know I can use printf to pad with 0s, but I am jus...
It goes without saying that using hard-coded, hex literal pointers is a disaster: int *i = 0xDEADBEEF; // god knows if that location is available However, what exactly is the danger in using hex literals as variable values? int i = 0xDEADBEEF; // what can go wrong? If these values are indeed "dangerous" due to their use in various ...
I'm working on a DSL that should support a time literal and am interested in two different things: What language(s) or DSL(s) support a time literal? How is the literal structured? I'm leaning towards using the following regular expression, extracted from the XSD for XML Schema itself, for identifying a time literal: T\d\d:\d\d:\d\d...
