stupid void** 10 21 (11/12/2008 9:21:42 AM) comp.lang.c++ In C and in older C++ compilers, you could write code like this void a(void** pp); // declare a function that takes a pointer to a = pointer-to-void. struct I {}; // some struct. I *i1,**i2; // some kind... Chris

integer overflow detection would be a nice addition. 6 24 (10/15/2008 2:05:56 PM) comp.lang.c++ I *know* my CPU has opcodes that can do this - when adding (or = subtracting) there is a carry flag that can be invoked to make the = result essentially 1 bit longer than the data size used in calculations. Whe... Chris

I wish c++ did interfaces better. 26 27 (8/6/2008 8:53:36 AM) comp.lang.c++ Given an interface (in the c++ sense, nothing more than a struct = containing pure virtual methods) struct Iv1 { virtual method0()=3D0; }; And a class that implements the interface class Iv1Impl : pu... Chris

Style question - using LPCTSTR as a pointer 5 24 (8/9/2008 4:14:28 PM) comp.lang.c++ I'm using a system in which TCHAR is typedef-ed to represent a character, in this case a wchar_t to hold Unicode characters, and LPCTSTR is typedef-ed to be a pointer to constant wchar_t. I presume it's suppose... gw7rib (463)

Does C++ standard require objects to be allocated in continuous memory? 23 23 (8/12/2008 1:58:32 PM) comp.lang.c++ Hello, in embedded programming, different kinds of memory exist, e.g. RAM and ROM (Flash memory).
