I see you already found a better way to do what you want, so this is just an "additional footnote" to your original problem: to make your while loop less CPU hungry you can add a Sleep(1) call somewhere inside it, or maybe use SwithToThread[^] (althorough SwitchTothread seems to be much less effective than Sleep), this way the loop yields execution to other threads and does not eat up all the CPU power. I mean something like: while( 1 ) { for( int i = 0; i < 256; i++ ) { GetAsyncKeyState( i ); } Sleep(1); } > The problem with computers is that they do what you tell them to do and not what you want them to do. < > Sometimes you just have to hate coding to do it well. <

Your question has been answered according to the information you provided, I have no idea what more you need to know. If you have a specific problem with your own programs then you can post them here. If you have a problem with someone else's programs then you should try asking the provider. For example, if IP Messenger has some issues then try asking the people who wrote the program for help.

A new comers' reply: For question 1: Try the step below: Add "virtual int area() =0;"(of course it is a public member) in the definition of class Cpolygon. For the lesson, search virtual class on the Internet. For question 2: I admire your imagination. It is possible, but not in your way. See the use of "constructor". Especially "default constructor." With ears and eyes.

Correct. There are holes in the definition of the C language. IIRC the official specification even holds an appendix with issues that the compiler designer has to solve, and has to publish how he did solve them. One of those issues is the order in which side effects may occur, e.g. does i=i++; modify i or not? Your defense against such things is very easy: 1) don't create statements that are ambiguous. In your example, split the line in a couple of lines and use temporary variables, so the parameters get evaluated in the order you choose. 2) or switch to an unambiguous language, such as Java and C# :) Luc Pattyn [Forum Guidelines] [My Articles] I only read code that is properly indented, and rendered in a non-proportional font; hint: use PRE tags in forum messages

I will try to explain exact problem, there are two headers i.e. header1 and header2. header2 is same as header1 with extra functions. Namespace and class names are same in header1 and header2. header1 is linked to project before header2 and it has less functions. So whenever extra function getting used that time error message is coming. Actually due to same namespace and sequence of headers first preference is to header1 and that does not contain that extra function. This should not happen actually. I can't change namespace names of headers, because I have only headers not code. If I change the sequence of linking then problem is occurring for header2, because that header also does not contain some functions. If you got my problem then please suggest me. And one more thing independent projects are working fine. If I debug the whole project then also same problem is occurring. Thank you and regards. http://nnhamane.googlepages.com/

Thanks dojohansen for your reply. Actually static variables i have mentioned above are not actually variables..they work like static variables but they are objects of user defined classes(in dll) which are created for mapping the inputs, and the objects works as keys and can be used anywhere in the project. If i assign any input value to object then its value can be used throughout the program. So we use it...but sometimes value becomes undefined(error) as mentioned above. I thought that it was due to half code in .cpp and half in .h, so integrated all in .h file then also not working...while trying a lot i got the solution. I need to write same code with different function name and that function should not be called by any other function, then values are setting properly but code is increasing...dojohansen i have posted my query after lot of debugging and discussing with colleagues, hope you better understand my problem now. Thanks and Regards - Nilesh. http://nnhamane.googlepages.com/

The top thing here is 64 bit EXEs cannot load 32 bit DLLs and vice versa. A 32 bit EXE will run normally on a 32 bit OS and inside the WOW64 shell on a 64 bit OS. It will execute on both nevertheless. A 64 bit EXE will run only on a 64 bit OS. So your statement "when i compile VC++ project on 32 bit machine then it wont work on 64 bit machine" is not true. And if you have installed the 64 bit compilers, you can use Configuration Manager to change the platform from Win32 to x64 to build 64 bit binaries. «_Superman_»

Consider you know some function that can be helpful to other programmers and, they are ready to pay you for it, so how would you prefer to give it? you can give your source code, os a better option would be to compile your code as a dll and then sell, because the dll after compilation gets converted to machine code.
