That's true. If only there were 42 hours in the day, then I would have the time to make it work the way I want. Unfortunately, I don't have the time to make everything work the way I want, so I have to use the programmer's best friend - "the workaround".
Thanks for the help anyway!

I do hope you realize the irony of this statement. Many times, it takes one far more time to "workaround" an issue than it does to do things the correct way.
GCC is far easier to use from the command line than Microsoft's compiler.
If you decide to become a software engineer, you are signing up to have a 1/2" piece of silicon tell you exactly how stupid you really are for 8 hours a day, 5 days a week

Yes. I'm a bit of a smart ass sometimes.

Unless the compiler is flawed, and won't let you do it the correct way, then you have to work around it, or take a different approach.

No doubt, but I like hitting F7.

As long as you realize that you are spoiled, I guess there is no problem with it

gcc is pretty much OK, but the debugger (gdb) sucks.

At the time of its release, it was almost 95% compliant with the standards. At the time, that was the highest of any compiler out there. There is a reason that VC6 is still widely used for Windows development.
That said, when dealing with templates, you have to be very careful with any compiler. they are all rather picky about them.

I've been using MSVC, since they first came out with it, and have always loved it. I've just heard other people saying how it isn't compliant, etc, etc, but I've never had a problem with it until this. Guess I'm really pushing the edge of the envelope now!

Not that I like to defend Microsoft for anything ... but in their defense, almost every compiler has problems with templates. That is an area of the standard that wreaks havok on every single compiler I've used (MSVC, Intel, GCC, Borland).

Hi all,
I have to compare two double values, say x and y. I compared using this simple method x < y, but the result seems to be varying in different cases. Sometimes eventhough x and y are equal, the output may be x is less than y and viceversa,
So Please help me to have a good method for comparison of double values.
Thanks in Advance

can you show the values you are comparing,
code you you are using.

When comparing floating point/double values, you should pick some small value and compare the difference of your two values to that value. For example:
double x = 3.14159265;
double y = 3.141592654;
const double epsilon = 0.00001;
bool IsEqualTo(double x, double y, double epsilon)
{
return (abs(x - y) < epsilon);
}
bool test = IsEqualTo(x, y, epsilon);
Small differences in precision can creep up when doing math with floats and doubles. Comparing their difference with some small value allows you to control which precision is important to you.

Hi Whitesky,
Thanks, but those articles talk about owner draw menu..
But in my case i can't draw the menu..
I'm implementing IContextMenu...
So, i have control over menu only in IContextMenu::QueryContextMenu...

Hi,
Please tell me how to plot a single dot in directx with mode 320x200. i have to plot hundreds of dots to form a figure. all the examples about directx programming tackles almost "loading" a bitmap then animating it.
e.g. drawing letter "A" using only the pixels meaning drawing each pixels(with respective x and y coordinates) until you will form the letter "A".
