I didn't knew the question was confusing. However some geniuses have decoded it correctly. Here I go again. Suppose I want to use bass.dll which have functions written in C, is there special thing i need to include or just give it a go?

Thanks for suggestions and link. I really learn here at DW

Hi guys,
its me again. How do you write templates for your sites (without template engine)? Pure php or what? I want to hear how you do it

I know you would say ask to JS/AJAX forum! Don't worry, it isn't about codes, it is curiosity. I wan't to know if I can do Ajaxing using JQuery and PHP without writting all Ajax functions myself :)
Just that :-/

starting with myself:
I use Aptana for now but I don't like the way PHP/JS/HTML/CSS are dis-integrated (PDT??). I'm thinking to go back to Netbeans PHP

My favorite JS library is JQuery. It happen to be the first to test and loved it. I don't use any famous framework and.... I love my country ;)

I'm just curious to see what are favorite PHPers in terms of the following:
1. What is your favorite IDE (If you can tell why you love it, it will ice the cake)?
2. What is your favorite JS/PHP libraries (I would love to hear why)
3. What PHP framework do you use?
4. Anything else related?

Just Idea came to mind. What If I create C++ program that will launch .class/.jar file via commandline and once Java app is launched it quits?

Why bad Idea Peter?
I have easy eclipse running normal with no problem. What trick did they do? What do you suggest as alternative to this

Man, you qualify to teach young children rocket science ;)
Great, clear I love it! Anyone can illuminate anything first person didn't touch or add more
Thanks!

So I Just build and give a go? I know how to build, at least in code::blocks. Is There a code completion for wxWidgets in VSE?

I see alot of libraries written in C and I like C++ OOP way.
How can I use a given C library functions in C++?

Mhh, did you install any software? Check scheduled task whether there is cmd.exe shechedule to run with switches /shutdown /r
Also you can use anvir task manager to see what startup programs are and it alerts you any change doen since previous time

Thanks Ezza,
I modified a little bit to get three paralleled lines,
exactly what I needed

package com.steve;

import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.EventQueue;
import java.awt.Graphics;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;

public class LinePaintDemo extends JPanel{

    @Override
    protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
        super.paintComponent(g);
        g.setColor(Color.BLUE);
        g.drawLine(getWidth()/2, getHeight()/2, 22, getHeight()/2);
        g.drawLine(getWidth()/2, getHeight()/2+10, 22, getHeight()/2+10);
        g.drawLine(getWidth()/2, getHeight()/2+20, 22, getHeight()/2+20);
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
            public void run() {
                JFrame frame = new JFrame();
                frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
                frame.add(new LinePaintDemo());
                frame.setSize(300,300);
                frame.setVisible(true);
            }
        });
    }
}

How do programs like easy eclipse get compiled to exe?
I'm learning Java in windows and would like to have exe rather than Jar. Also does exe depend on JRE's VM?

Most likely it is the UAC interferring and must be turned off. Or, you can get a different version of Ares, like Aresvista, which is made specifically for Vista and Windows 7 machines and won't have this problem.

I don't agree with you buddy :)
It is risky to turn UAC off. Just right click on the file/shortcut and go to properties and tick checkbox that says run as admin to elevate that program each time it runs. Don't turn off please ;)

Thanks Atli,
I'm yet to hear from others :)

Some C++ buzzwords a programmer need to grasp really boggles my mind. I try to understand them but I strangely, get dim understanding of them (am I tired? Need a vacation?). Anyway please help me understand the following big words in C++

1. Virtual Functions
2. Polymorphism

Thanks alot

Yes it can. It will also compile CLR/C++ Forms. Just google for VC++ 2008 Express and you will get the download link

Ok So what do I need to integrate wxWidgets. The Link I was talking about is about upgrade info from VS6 upwards

Thanks for reply

+1 for PHPBB. If doesn't satisfy you, either code one or buy one like vbulletin

VS++ 2008 Express edition doesn't require activation codes because its free. If you want the Standard or better editions then you will get the codes when you upgrade the compiler. I'm not sure if you qualify for the Upgrade price or if you have to buy the New User version -- check Microsoft's web site and it should tell you.

Can express edition work with DLL as well as wxWidgets?

Any helpful link to MS site. It is huge site

what do you comment about this

I always love to learn programing via Music/video players once I grasp the basics. How easy it is to do it, especially using windows DLLs or even Java libraries :)
Thanks

First, help me isn't good for heading. Please use something that explains a proble like "Help me find errors in this code". Also explain a bit what does you want to accomplish

Even here in Tanzania, they recommend it and all the labs are full of turbo C++. But it is not "enforced" it is that they are already there and amny of students here hates programming, why would they bother? After all they are after marks and not knowledge :(

I remember one lecturer giving us BC5 and guess what, I recoiled and used C::B and all who saw it loved it.

I mean those activation code for my VS6, will they work with VS08/VS10? or I will have to Buy entirely new IDE? Duh, that is expensive :cry:

But will my serial work with VS 2008/2010? Or is there cheap way to do so?

Hi all,
I plan sometime to jump into IT business. I plan some tools that I will need. I will go for web as well as Desktop. So far I know that I need to know HTML/CSS/PHP/Javascript and hence I know I need IDE that will support those plus some libraries like Jquery/Moo tools. Here are the candindates (randomly written):
1. Dreamweaver
2. phped
3. Codelobster
4. Zend Studio
5. Any other

Also I know the beauty of flashing webs :) So I have
1. SwishMax
2. Sothink Easy Flash
3. Adobe Flash

So what do you suggest I should do/go for? I have limited pocket so I need a feasible but good combination

Thanks

I have genuine VS 6 Keys as well as accompanying MSDN library. But VS set up CD is missing :(
Where can I download VS 6 setup? I have wondered in MS site and all I see is no VS6, juststories about it!

Please explain these to me as I have not understood what they are doing:

#
EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
#
public void run() {.....}

One weakness of PyQT apart from licencing issues, is lack of third party documentation. Try this Jan is good at writting tutorials

Simple XML?

start from scratch is the best option. Just begin with basic needs and build more options as you go. That is what I have learned to do

Thanks alot,
I'm checking

Hi all,
I need to draw simple lines on JFrame/JPanel. What is the easiest method to go? Also what do I need to display an image on JFrame/JPanel

Thanks

Thanks,
I'm checking the link you posted

Check wxWidgets

Hi all,
to strengthen my C++ knowledge I want to code a DLL to record sound and write it to a file. So Far I want it to be windows based may be later Linuxed. So here is my first step, make simple program that does that. But I have tried to google for sound recording with C++ in windows without avail. Please someone to give a hint on sound recording in windows

Thanks :)

thanks!

Check bass

Thanks Guys,
though its true I gave a little laugh at the Adapost. It is true and fun :)

Hi,

I think you should involve yourself in some projects, whether it of your own ideas, or participate with some other programmers to make this happen, and I think you'll keep learning, learning, and learning because java is really big and it covers many sides so, you should decide which side you want work on it to gain alot of experience.

I hope this benefits you. Happy coding :)

[EL-Prince]

Mhh! I only Know web side and Application side. Any other side??

Next time, please just click the 'flag bad post' link if you see no code-tags, and someone will fix it. Now we have the same code posted twice, only yours has no indention.

I thought it was for spammmers scheduled for delete

also dont use void main
accoring to salem void Main(ers) are doomed TO ka-BOOOM ;)
use soemthing like this

int main(){
//soem codes here
//..................
return 0;
}

please use tag code and explain what you are trying to accomplish

#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>

struct llist
{
int info;
struct llist *next;
};

typedef struct llist linked_list;
linked_list *start=NULL,*new1;

void main()
{
int menu;

void ll_insert()
{
char ch;
do{
new1=create_node();
if(start==NULL)
start=new1;
else
addnode();
fflush(stdin);
printf("Do you want to add one more row(y/n):");
scanf("%c",&ch);
}while(ch=='y' || ch=='Y');

}

linked_list *create_node()
{
linked_list *new1;
new1=(linked_list*)malloc(sizeof(linked_list));
printf("\nEnter the info:");
scanf("%d",&new1->info);
new1->next=NULL;
return new1;

Hi there,
please point me to decent 2D plotting library. Compatibility with QT/wx is an added advantage.

Oh! I forgot to mention it should be free!

Thanks guys for good advices and are good. Actually I'm working in Telecommunication Engineering Field as an Engineer. So Programming is Just my hobby. Nevertheless I want to be expert, though I don't want to know everything

More advices?

I don't want to know each and everything in C++, but I wan't to know what do I need to be able to Code a good big app like Notepad++?

I mean what it takes to be a best C++ expert?
(Or how did the Ancient Dragon became expert ;) )
Thanks guys & girls

I have asked the same Question on C++.
So far I have moderately mastered PHP a little and more of Python. I want now to add up Java/C++

So what I need to know to be Java expert in Web and Desktop Applications? Are they two different beasts?

Thanks Guys

Glad I was of help!
Tell your friends about Daniweb.
Don't forget to mention Naveen ;)

@evstevemd,
You missed "/" in myfoldername variable. So it will create the sql file as,

@futhonguy,
You can use evstevemd's code.

$myfoldername = getcwd()."\\MyBackups/";//your folders name 
mkdir($myfoldername , 0777);
$handle = fopen("$myfoldername".'db-backup-'.time().'-'.(md5(implode(',',$tables))).'.sql','w+');

Notice the "/" in $myfoldername.

Thanks Naveen
It is very subtle error ;)

What about this?

$myfoldername = getcwd()."\\MyBackups";//your folders name 
mkdir($myfoldername , 0777);
$handle = fopen("$myfoldername".'db-backup-'.time().'-'.(md5(implode(',',$tables))).'.sql','w+');
