Well, one thing that you could do is to take away the couts and use printfs... Use fopen, fprintf, and fscanf instead of the std fstream stuff. Make sure all of your variables for functions are...

That may be true, but you should know that I had been using MFC exclusively for the past 3+ years...sigh... I had only found out about fltk and gtk within the past few months.

-Fredric

Actually, I do write programs with user interfaces in emacs IN Linux. I use gtkmm, and fltk. They are extremely easy to use, understand, and I don't need to constantly check back through...

In my opinion, if you can sit down in a simple text editor, and without looking at any notes, write out the code for a simple application, then you are using the right libraries for the job. If you...

Why not use a constant pointer to the vector? If the vector is not zero, then make a copy of it inside the function.


string whateverTwo( int a, const vector<string> *defaultV = 0) {

Sorry, I was referring to developing MFC applications, and I haven't seen anyone do it without that resource editor that comes with MSVC++ 6.0.. Seriously, do you know of any good tutorial or...

Sure. If you are just starting out with GUI's then stay away from MFC, far, far, far away from MFC. In fact, always stay far away from MFC, there are things out there that surpass it in every...

I think he meant doing something like:


*sSaverPtr = filled;


Which dereferences whatever sSaverPtr points to, and changes the stored value there to filled.

-Fredric

I don't quite understand what it is you're doing here:


void insert(int array[])
{
int value;

int *frontPtr = array; // referenced both pointers to first element into the...

Well, try all numbers from D to 1,000,000. I was able to write a program that calculates this in under 20 seconds.

I used one loop that went from D...

I managed to get your code to compile and run, but I had to kill it after clicking twice. After looking at your code I noticed that you were trying to draw in the glut mouse function, that's a bad...

A final class? You mean like a final variable in Java? I haven't heard of that before in C++. But to answer your question about making private constructors, the only reason why I could see you...

I didn't see it the first time, but the ^ doesn't do what you think it does in C++, if you want to take m to the n power then you use the pow function like so...


#include <math.h>

I think you know how to take a factorial of a number, but your variable usage is not good.


while ( z != 0)
{
result *= z;
z--;
}

Isn't std::string the ANSI string?

Why are you not using std::string? If you were you could just do...

result.erase(result.find(' '));

To remove one space...

I assume you have the left side of the christmas tree. What you need is the right side? You just need to print out twice as many stars in that case.

0: *
1: ***
2:*****

-Fredric

Err', sorry, reread your post more carefully..if you want a christmas tree effect, then you need to include that for loop I said to leave out, but set the initial value of i to j in it, change 40 to...

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
int i, j, lines;

cout << "This Program creates Christmas Trees." << endl;

test.insert(pair<int,int>(a,b));


That works for me..?

-Fredric

How are you printing out the list?

-Fredric

node* p_before = find_element(number, k_beginning);


What is k_beginning? Is it a node? Is it a number? Is it suppose to be p_beginning?

In any case, that code shouldn't truncate the end of...

Probably a dumb question, but are you sure that those bitmaps are in the right place with respect to the .exe file that you are running?

Here is a link to an faq on gamedev.net that covers DirectX...

Looks like a good place to start.

Woops, I just checked to see if that was right, and apparently you can't specify a dll directory with MVC++ 6.0. Sorry for the bad info!

I have done Direct X stuff before, but what you are saying...

I've heard of problems with MSVC++ 6.0, where everything runs fine when you're just running it from MSVC, but when you go to run it in its release/debug folder it crashes. If the program was a...

bool CheckDate( int day1, int month1)
{
int day1, month1 = 0;

Two things I see wrong there. First, if you want CheckDate to be a method of class dateReport then you need to add...

I would say that C++ is definitely harder to learn and understand than Java. When you are using C++ it is really easy to forget/misuse a lot of the object oriented methodology. With Java,...

It sounds like you are trying to do something like the following...


Music *music = new Music;

Record *record = (Record *)music;



This is fine and it will compile, but you *never* want...
