Thanks for the Kudos ... I do only as I expect of others ;-) Seriously tho ... this is the coolest thing *I* have seen all year qcha0s

Are you developing on UNIX? .. I Tlooks like it's a UNIX specific header file see: [^] for my google results... I also found this http://aegis.sourceforge.net/doxygen-html/unistd_8h-source.html[^] which is *A* uninstd.h file .. but i have doubts that it's the one specific to the application you are trying to compile .... IF you can provide details about the application / source / where it was obtained from / what platform your working on etc... I will do my bes to help you out ... Regards qcha0s

which header file ? qcha0s

Even though this is a majority C++ site ... i'm sure there are many other Developers here who dabble in VB ... and for that matter VB6 I stumbled across this (I beleive it was originally posted on Joel's site) and think its worthy of checking out http://www.realbasic.com/vb6/index.php?id=HFXQLTQH[^] this link is for a FREE version (standard Edition) for VB 6 Developers ... The id= at the end will get me some kudos from them but feel free to drop it if you don't wanna share the love ... regardless, it is pretty cool ... The professional version will produce Win32 / MAC (Classic and OSX) / and Linux Binaries ... My limited testing so far reveals that I can take a VB6 app and convert it to a Real Basic App and Real Basic REMOVES the VB Runtime depends .... swank Did I mention it was Free ? And now back to your regularly scheduled Lounge chatter ;-) Cheers qcha0s

not without seeing the number :wtf: qcha0s

still not working here :( :^) qcha0s

Cold Country Canada... Toronto ... MSN Messenger no workie workie :( hows the rest of the free world ? qcha0s

Not all disassemblers go directly to ASM ... I have used several in the past that disassemble to C, C++, and even VB (back when VB was interperted) ... While it is true that most will only output to ASM, others do exist (although reading the code is still difficult when all of the variables and methods are genericly renamed to things like fun003 and var001) qcha0s

There is a large list of Disassemblers located @ http://www.thefreecountry.com/programming/disassemblers.shtml[^] regards! qcha0s

I suggest you look over the Doc/View section on CP ... I personally think that Roger Allen has one of the best grips on the subject see http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/DocViewEnhancements.asp[^]for his article... Cheers! qcha0s

I'm looking for some SNMP code examples... just somthing straight forward, in C++/MFC ... I have found many pre-compiled libs, and some COM stuff... but I'm interested is just some Plain C++ or MFC code.... Anyone want to share some bookmarks ? qcha0s

It always makes me giggle when Beta products have the power to change the world... GMail (which is great BTW) is STILL in beta... yet both Hotmail and Yahoo! have responded to the 1gig storage limit provided by increasing the Free storage they each provide... some ISP's have done the same, I know that up here in cold country Canada, our local cable provider now provides me with 2gig storage on my primary Email account. Good for Google, great for the rest of us. qcha0s

Anyone else having issues downloading the examples... or is it just me?? qcha0s

Aside from the open source ... http://threewisemen.ca/ Cheers! qcha0s

Tell them you need dual monitors (much better for development) ;-) qcha0s

Suggestions... Make sure you have an agenda set out, especially if you are instructing knowledgible students, it will help you stay focused and not go off track too much with non relivant questions that knowledgible pupils are bound to ask, simply make a note of any difficult questions and tell them that you will come back to it (possibly during the next session) this gives you time to bone up on anything that catches you off gaurd.. if the off topic question is one that you are comfortible answering, answer it.. but make a point of coming back to the topic at hand (this will have your students perceiving you as not only professional, but knowledgible) Remember that during public speaking of any kind.. S P E A K S L O W .. just listen to yourself, if you sound like your talking at a normal pase it's too fast for someone in the room. Remember to ask frequently if there are any questions while you are speaking... this allows for 2 wonderful things to happen .. first it provides an opening for those students that feel a little lost to get thier questions out without feeling dumb, second it's a question answer session in a controled maner (giving you the experiance in answering questions... you can even call on the other people in the room to help with a "Thats a great question... joe smith, can you answer bill's question?") Re-inforce to the students that "the only dumb question is the one you never ask" and you will be well respected, after all everyone learns sometime! Provide a 3 prong approach... 1) Tell them what your going to tell them (point form) we are going to cover x, y, & z. 2) Tell them about X, Y, & Z in detail (asking if there are any questions as you go). 3) Tell them what you told them (so now you know what X is, how Y works, and why use Z) Best of Luck and remember "It's all just an exercise in Resume building" ;) qcha0s

ROTFL! qcha0s

My Manager had to sign it following me.... I'm of the opinion that if they didn't re-draft the contract, and filed it the way I signed it.. then they accepted my terms... am I off here? well I think that the use of a seperate language and a totally diffrent architecture should prevent the "theft of work" angle... and to my knowledge, I'm paid to develop not think .. so my toughts are mine? no ? Leaving my employer is an option ... I have already discussed this potential solution with my client... I would love to get back into the Freelance FT .. convincing the wife of that however is a tricky one ;-) ... I know that my family comes first, and ca't jepordize them.. if it was just me this wouldn't be an issue.. i would take the risk in the name of experiance (good or bad) ... but as a husband, and father of two.... I tend to take fewer risks ;-) Thanks for the opinion qcha0s
