I know the song, I like it ;P. Coulda, woulda, shoulda doesn't matter if you don't.

PULONG is a DDK type. And of course this is C, coming from a driver. So, lots of nice meaty casting! (Actually, its part of a DHCP server I am working on, that resides in the driver) Nunc est bibendum

Yes, with someone who is 'just gay' it isn't as glaringly noticeable as it is with a screaming queen. I used to get high on life until I realized that life was cut with morons - Unknown

I find that well written code often does look aesthetically pleasing, however obviously some effort should be put into readability. I always try to ensure that my code does "look" good, atleast to my eyes: for (int iOperand = 0; iOperand < 3; iOperand++) {         if (pToken->iToken == TOK_IDENTIFIER          || pToken->iToken == TOK_OBRACKET          || pToken->iToken == TOK_INTEGER          || g_aTokens[pToken->iToken].m_iClass == TOKEN_REGISTER)         {                 pInstruction->apOperands[iOperand] = Parse_HandleOperand (pInstruction->iOpcode, &pToken);                 if (!pInstruction->apOperands[iOperand])                         return NULL;                 ++pInstruction->iNumOperands;         }         else                 break; } Just as an aside; I have never met a female programmer before...

X| X| X| Is that really what your IDE looks like or did you use some image processing s/w to do that? Cheers, Vikram.

I like your coding style and follow something almost identical, except * If I have to break the condition in an if clause, I don't indent the next line by a single space, I use a 4-character tab to indent it. * I enclose single-statement if and else blocks with braces. * Since I largely do C#, I don't use Hungarian. Cheers, Vikram.

Gay Very Gay Montreal great Guy Lafleur, quoted by CBC on being mugged while vacationing recently in Buenos Aires: "I didn't have any time to react before I got a sucker-punch in the eye. It was like one of the players from the Bruins."

[Stuart Dootson]

a) Yes, it's not difficult, given the tools we have these days b) If there's any conflict, I prefer to perfect my code's inner beauty. ;P

me too, it's very, very confusing when other programmers don't do that ... (in my opinion anyway) Coulda, woulda, shoulda doesn't matter if you don't.

only when the program behaves.... When there are bugs.... out comes the axe. one of my previous bosses and I had many conversations over whether or not Software was "science or art". I don't think this is an "or" situation, nor a 50/50 scenerio. Based on the user's experience he/she will make it more or less art. In her case she was a pure science person, software was rigid, there was only one way to do things. _________________________ Asu no koto o ieba, tenjo de nezumi ga warau.

And let us not forget error messages! We, of course, all remember and love this: haiku error messages[^] But I try to write my code for utmost readability. It ain't easy, but it is worthwhile. And I still say being a column nazi (80 cols MAX) is the way to be. I should not EVER have to scroll to the right to see what code does. JUST UP AND DOWN!!! Err, sorry. ...Steve

I have a feeling that's not what he'd do with your arse... :~
