<0> Do you plan to use all of these things?
<0> Visual Studio costs quite a lot.
<0> While you can get a free version of Visual C++.
<1> not really, vs express editions are free
<1> you just have to download each language separately
<2> no im focusing on visual c++
<1> then just get that
<0> Anyway. There's still little point to getting tools you won't use.
<2> k
<3> I hope you're lying DrkMatter
<3> I love having tools I never use
<3> what if I want to use them some day
<3> and I don't have them?
<0> Well, that's where teh "never use" part fo the statements come in handy. =P
<1> never say never
<0> If you need them later, you can get them later.
<1> unless you can't
<0> When your ehart truly desires something...
<0> *heart
<0> Like, say, a tool...
<0> Then nothing can stand in your way!
<1> except microsoft
<4> I have a base object with 'int IDCount' that needs to increment everytime an object (or derivative) of it is made. I also need for every object (or derivative) of it to have a static ID
<4> http://pastebin.ca/38118
<4> like that?
<5> SB_ school ***ignment?
<4> no, personal thing
<5> SB_ you know about boost?
<4> boost?
<5> the boost library?
<4> no...
<5> it has auto/smart pointers
<5> pretty much does wshat you're talking about
<4> but that isn't what i want..
<4> lol
<4> i need like two integers, not a whole library :)
<5> well, I'm sure you'll find uses for the rest of the library
<5> it's pretty pimp :)
<5> boost.org
<5> why re-invent the wheel, ya know?
<4> i mean
<4> this is a pretty basic thing though
<4> i feel stupid for forgetting how to do it lol
<4> thanks for telling me about boost though.
<4> if i ever do anything useful, or otherwise comlicated i'll give it a try
<4> man there is like a certain way to do this, i learned it last year, and i completely forgot it
<4> the one thing i learn in a CS cl*** i forget
<4> :(
<0> Huh... Add a counter to every constructor and the ***ignment operator, and decrement it in the destructor.
<0> Every constructor means you have to make them all explicit, ie, you must also write it for the copy constructor.
<4> well i learned it in java
<4> because the other thing is
<4> i have to get the last ID from the base cl***
<4> and decrementing is bad because this is _kinda_ like serializing cl***es
<0> Oh, wait, I'm mixing this up wih an instance counter. If you just want IDs, and don't mind if IDs are ***igned to deleted obejcts, you cna forego the descrutor part.
<0> The problem might come if you must make the data persistant, though.
<4> yeah
<4> java does that easy like
<4> and i suspect c# does as well
<0> Java does what easy like?
<4> data persistant (in this case)
<0> I'm talking about your identifiers. In between program runs, the same IDs could be reused. That's where issues arise.
<0> It's a design problem, nto an implementation one.
<0> [m]aaniac:: Out of curiosity, I'm trying to find which boost library could do this kind of instance ID'ing, since you opinted out it was somewhere in there... Which would it be?
<6> I've done a lot of GUIs the last days and it's incredibly hard! is there any better way to design and handle a GUI? I'm tired!!! of case WM_MESSAGE: if (LOWORD(wParam)==IDC_etc etc
<6> tricks are welcomed too
<7> MFC
<4> true
<4> or
<4> c#
<6> someone in here once said "keep away from MFC"
<4> haha
<4> do it like VB
<0> Keep away from MFC!
<6> :))
<0> Or not. IT's a framework. Use it if it flaots your boat.
<6> it takes me a day to build a decent gui
<0> You can try MFC. Or Qt. And see if you like it.
<6> I tryed MFC but... I took that line as a good one
<6> why should one keep away from MFC?
<0> Well, I don't have enough experience with MFC myself to tell you that.
<8> hawwwwwwks baby
<9> Steelers :)
<7> khan
<7> Why should sk8ing avoid MFC
<7> And what should he use in its place
<8> dunno
<8> but i *do* know that the seahawks are going to pwn at the superbowl
<9> no way man heheh
<6> I'm already looking at a TabControl cl*** that looks really good
<6> should I read further? :P
<6> the tab controls under clean win32 simply ****s
<10> i can make a uk,us number on top of ur mobile number msg me for a deal i need mailers
<11> where is ULONG, ULONG_PTR, etc, defined?
<10> i can make a uk,us number on top of ur mobile number msg me for a deal i need mailers
<6> windef.h
<11> sk8ing: i can find ULONG there but not ULONG_PTR... know where that could be?
<6> basetsd.h, but it's probably ULONG *
<11> inside a mfc application created by appwizard i can use LONG_PTR.. but i don't see either windef.h or basetsd.h included anywhere
<6> because they are included by other headers
<11> actually sry the ULONG_PTR doesn't work.. only USHORT works
<11> right.. hmm i wonder where ULONG_PTR would be defined in
<11> ah i found it in basetsd.h in the SDK include.. thx for help sk8ing
<11> there were multiple basetsd.h's
<6> what compiler are you using?
<11> visual c++ 6.0
<6> and the ide? VS?
<11> actually it's just visual c++ 6.0 for ide
<11> its basetsd.h doesn't define ULONG_PTR
<12> What is the best way to check if the boost paths are pointing to the same location ?
<6> typedef _W64 unsigned long ULONG_PTR, *PULONG_PTR;
<11> right i have that in the sdk basetsd.h
<11> is there a utility that looks inside all files in folders and subfolders and find a string?
<12> hmm
<12> are you using windows ?
<11> yeah
<8> grep? findstr?
<12> you can do it using search i think
<8> findstr /s foo
<12> just hit f3
<11> oh yeah i think you're right
<8> *
<8> search only looks in registered files to look into, not all
<11> ic
<11> does findstr work with directories? or do you have to specify a file
<12> has anyone used google desktop search ?
<12> wow
<8> "findstr /s foo *" will search all files in the current working directory, and all subdirectories, for the word foo
<12> findstr - neat toy
<8> google desktop search is also good
<11> ic, yea i agree findstr is neat toy.. didn't know something like that existed
<11> thanks
<11> and i found another way right after i asked the question.. within vc, you can use find in file
<8> not quite grep, but it does it's job
<8> yeah, ctrl+shift + f
<13> Heh
<14> zzz
<14> Looks like someone will never know how to forward declare a cl*** or what's a static member
<12> can you still use atexit in Win32 programming ?
<12> i mean if you want to deallocate some data before a thread exits, and you have no control as to whether it exits, is there a function similar to atexit ?
<15> Cloud99: main thread ?
<12> yeah
<12> i want the main thread to execute certain instructions before it exits
<15> is there more than one exit path ?
<12> hm
<12> its for a dll
<12> it provides certain functions that spawn threads
<12> and when dll is unloaded, i need to terminate those threads somehow
<15> it's bad design to create threads from a dll
