C / C++ / MFC

jeron1, thank you, but I have started with that acticle :) It was useful but didn't helped me.

I notice the source code download are broken. The source code for the 1st article can be downloaded from Github. https://github.com/shaovoon/use_font_without_install_on_win

Using 128 bit ints

The class definition is present at run time, and may be interrogated. The class definition is the type of the class instances. With the small caveat that classes need at least one virtual function to get this RTTI (Run-Time Type Information). Classes without virtual function members don't get this vtable member. Pretty sure this is standard required behavior, but I haven't checked. It is true however at least in the case of MSVC, the compiler I know best. Mircea (see my latest musings at neacsu.net)

Member 16391238 wrote: an academic project This is going to be a complex project. FIRST, you would need to learn how to write a driver, and driver. And figure out how to do it for the target OS. Either Windows or Linux. Then you would need to find a NIC that you can actually find internal documentation for. So you can access it. Following is the layers you would be looking to replace. And it took me a bit to even find that diagram. The Internet Protocol Stack[^] I suspect you would need to create a IP layer. I think you can do that these days with C++. However you are going to need to really understand how linking works and API interfaces. And probably a bit of hardware knowledge also. It will likely also require special compilation macros to insure that your API is constructed correctly. Internally you might be able to use OO but for the API methods they will not be class methods. It is possible that one of the small hobby computers (like 'Basic Stamp') might be workable mainly because it might be easier to find hardware details. But with that you are then also going to learn how to use that and to create binaries for it.

The CPropertyPage object is created during its construction, not when it is added to the sheet. Since you constructed it without a title, a title you cannot retrieve.

I meant building for ARM from an Intel PC with VS2022.

I have to go to Windows-1252 for that. The Wikipedia page for ISO/IEC 8859-1[^] lists also other languages that are not fully covered. Anyway, at this point, I think we should agree to disagree as I'll continue to keep everything in UTF-8 inside my programs. Mircea

As you have been told many times, this forum is for questions on C, C++ and MFC; it is not for Qt issues. The Qt help forum is at Qt | Tools for Each Stage of Software Development Lifecycle[^].

This is a Qt issue as far as using the toInt function. And as the documentation (QString Class | Qt Core 5.15.17[^]) clearly shows, it handles numbers in any base from 2 to 36.

I think peeps assume I’m a total n00b just because I’m asking for folk’s opinions. Using an integer was the first thing I mentioned. I promise you I know of 64-bit ints. The question was has anybody used 128-bit ints and noticed a serious performance hit. The only reason I mentioned all three original ways is because I knew someone would come along and tell something unrelated. Also, that’s grossly over simplifying system design. I’ve architected plenty of enterprise apps in my day. Future proofing is also a consideration. So, to repeat man… the question isn’t what’s an int. It’s how fast is a 128-bit int for those who actually used it in a project. If someone has a better way to store currency than the four ways already mentioned (including fixed point) - great.

ahhhh yes, I've seen that before. thanks. :thumbsup: CI/CD = Continuous Impediment/Continuous Despair

You'll have to draw a frame manually (CDC::Rectangle) and handle all the mouse click events to be able to move it. What exactly are you trying to do ? CI/CD = Continuous Impediment/Continuous Despair

Thanks for your feedback. I think I understand.

Thank you guys indirection was the problem
