 | I'd say you should sort the address book entried into alphabetical order before you write it the file. Writing and reading to the text file should be easy if you use an ASCII format (not binary). Store it something like this: [code]Name Address Phone[other data here] Name Address Phone[/code] Using … |
| | You could also try using a different instant messenger. Macs come by default, with iChat, which uses the AIM protocol, so you won't have to get a different screen name. [URL="http://www.adiumx.com"]Adium[/URL] is another instant messenger you can try.  |

| | How much RAM do you have in your computer? What's the processor speed? You should also check which services are running. A quick way to find this out is to do a CTRL-ALT-DELETE, and then note the items in the listing. Could you post those here? Lastly, when did you … |
| | "Hacking" has a rather negative connotation associated with it, however hacking in itself is not exactly illegal. For example, one could make a mod for a game that is perfectly legal, and call it a "hack". "Cracking" is illegal and not what you want to do. That's the actual act …  |
 | I can't really tell what your code is supposed to be doing; please forgive me. For testing purposes I changed myFile to cin so I could manually enter the input. It seemed to work as expected, stopping whenever it reached a '&' character. One thing that I noticed was that … |
 | The only one I've ever posted in is that riddle game, which I guess says something about what I think of the word games. :P |
| | Hi, I'm not sure if this is the right forum to post this thread in, but here it is. Even though I program on the Mac OS X platform, and am quite good at it, I'm really doing game programming, so I never really learned much Cocoa or Carbon. Can … |
| | > for instance in windows xp, you can press ctrl+alt+del twice, and it will allow you to manually type in a username/password. You can do that in Mac OS X by pressing an up/down arrow key, and then press Shift-Option-Return. To set it permanently, you choose Apple->System Preferences->Accounts. Under Login … |
| | >can you construct 3D models without programming knowledge? Yes. The art of creating 3D models has little or nothing to do with the actual programming of a game that incorporates the 3D models into it. Probably the easiest one to start learning on is [URL="http://www.wings3d.com/"]Wings3D[/URL]. The interface is quite simple, …  |
| | Great, they've finally gotten around to doubling the bitrate on those AACs. 256 kb/s is acceptable, 128 kb/s was just a joke. Sadly, no sign of them offering lossless music, even though iTunes and their iPods are perfectly capable of playing files encoded to Apple Lossless. Not only would Apple … |
 | You should configure your router with a hard wired connection if possible. On some routers, wireless isn't even on by default, so you're forced to use cables. Open your web browser, and enter the IP address (do what darren said), although it's usually 192.168.0.1 If this does not work on … |
| | Why don't you try downloading the file manually from Adobe's website? [url]http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash[/url] The installer contained inside the dmg will probably fix any errors that may have been existent previously, so everything should work after this installation. Hope this helps |
| | Use the nonstandard [URL="http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908775/xcurses/getch.html"]getch()[/URL] to handle your keyboard input - but beware, it's not supported on all compilers and the input is non-buffered. That being said, there's no C/C++ standard for asynchronous input as far as I know, so using getch() is your best bet.[URL="http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908775/xcurses/getch.html"] [/URL] Using variables to keep … |

 | >It does run, and shows the correct answer; but I keep getting an error: How can it run if it doesn't compile? (The reason it has errors is because you need to escape your quotes in the last [inlinecode]printf[/inlinecode] statement.)  |
| | Re: Tic-Tac-Toe >Ok, how would you implement the Tic.c program recursively? So start your own thread, [URL="http://www.catb.org/%7Eesr/faqs/smart-questions.html"]ask a proper question[/URL] and check out the rules. We have no idea what you are trying to implement recursively (aside from the fact that it's a Tic Tac Toe game), and you haven't shown as … |

| | Re: MS Publisher Currently there is no program that exists on the Mac platform capable of doing this. The only way you could possibly accomplish this is to install Windows on your Mac (either via Boot Camp if you're running a newer Mac, or using virtualization technology), and then run Publisher from there … |
 | I would guess the issue here is that the manufacturer doesn't prove native drivers that OS X can use. Do the cameras that don't show up in the Finder sync directly with iPhoto? If not, then there's nothing you can do about it, short of writing your own driver for … |
| | How am I supposed to know that you legally own the router? If not, are you not attempting to gain illegal access to the router, or being a "hacker"? I'm not going to help you break the law, but if you actually own the router, you can usually reset it … |

 | Re: Black taskbar You can apply themes to Vista which [URL="http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=470827&st=0"]alter your taskbar's appearance[/URL]. If you want to manually hack the taskbar's color, you'll have to use a tool like [URL="http://www.angusj.com/resourcehacker/"]ResHacker[/URL], or just change the color theme in Vista (although that changes everything, not just the taskbar). Edit: looks like someone just outdid …  |
| | You probably already know what my opinion is going to be, but here it is one final time. The old flat 2006 DaniWeb looked way nicer. [url]http://www.daniweb.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=3311&d=1177976833[/url] It was designed much more around actual functionality; it didn't have these silly "share this", "syndicate that", tags, votes, even reputation kind of … |

 | What I figure is that the X server is configured to automatically start up even in runlevel 3. You could of course, change the configuration files so that X doesn't start up in runlevel 3. But it's probably easier to use the shell to quit it temporarily. You can try … |

| | Compiled fine for me. It looks like the code you pasted is different than the code that you posted ("vector<double,class std::allocator<double> >" from the error). Another possibility is that your compiler is too old. Visual C++ 6.0 should be trashed, try [URL="http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/"]Visual Studio 2005 Express[/URL] (free download) or [URL="http://bloodshed.net/"]Dev-C++[/URL]. >I … |

Ancient Dragon probably did miss this question: Which was posted less then 2 weeks ago.[/quote] Which is a perfect example of why someone shouldn't piggy-back old threads. It's quite simple: if you have a question, post it in … |
 | I've said this already, and I'll say this again: I still think requiring X number of posts before a user can add a signature would work wonders to stopping this crap. But for some reason higher-ups disagree with me. *shrugs*  |
| | Re: Creating an OS A C/C++ book will NOT show you how to write an operating system, and for a good reason: it's far beyond the scope of the book. Creating an operating system takes a whole team of skilled programmers just to create a simple kernel. Linux took years before a GUI was …  |
 | How little you know of what actually goes into being a moderator here.  |
| | Fairly simple for most of your problems; you're just missing a lot of drivers that need to be installed and downloaded. For your graphics card, head over to Nvidia and download the Linux drivers: [url]http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html[/url] Get the model of your sound card, and google it and "linux driver".

| | I think to automatically boot into GUI mode, you must set the runlevel to 5. Edit the /etc/inittab file, and you should find a section in the file that describes this. Also, you may have not installed the right software. You need the X Windowing enviroment, and you might also … |
| | Why are you using 'ItemType' for your lists? Is this some sort of generic container-type object? (Presumably it overloads the '>>' operator, since you were using it in main().) If I were designing the UnsortedType class, I would probably use a template so the object type can be specified when … |
