Yes, this is true. The root of C# is Java (only the syntax changed, to accomodate some people), the root of the CLR is the JVM, and the root of the BCL is the Java SDK. By root, I will go as far as saying the entire source code and paradigm was taken and then rebranded. In 1997 already, the MS Java VM and SDK had a lot more features than the Sun Java VM and SDK in that it was more Windows-centric. I guess a lot of people remember the Java COM bridge. This bridge is now called COM Interop. Again, the paradigm, class hierarchy is the one from Java. There is no way to make me think that they have written everything from scratch. That being said, what they have been adding lately to the BCL, CLR and C# language is a clear distinction that they are pushing the envelope further, and they deserve kuddows for that. RSS feed

Hi in your view use code like this GetDocument()->SetTitle(strTitel); where strTitel is a CString variable containing the text to display. Of course, you also can set the title directly. G. Steudtel

The Base Priority of a thread is determined by both the process priority class, and the thread priority. It's just two different mechanisms (one to weight processes in the system, one to weight threads inside one process) Thread 1 will (almost) always get scheduled first when both are waiting for an event or similar. The scheduler always schedules the thread of the highest priority that is ready to run. So Thread 1 will starve thread 2, if it doesn't give up processor time or a second CPU is available. The one exception is: Input goes to Thread 2. When input waits in the queue for a thread, it's priority is temporarily boosted.

Hi, thanks for saying that it works for you, it led me to the problem. The value being passed in was actually a long not an unsigned long, I didn't notice because it's actually part of a structure the definition of which has changed. "it does work, you fool!" posts are just as useful as solution advice so thanks to those who replied. I'll write a test harness next time before posting, my bad :) thanks again, simon. -- Simon Steele Programmers Notepad - http://www.pnotepad.org/

Hmm. Methinks that when you make source open, it becomes open. I'm no expert on open source licensing, but here's your dilemma. You released a bunch of source under a given license. After releasing the source, someone has indicated they want to create a commercial product. If they're not in violation of the license, they may do so. I don't think you can re-release the source under a NEW license and retroactively change the terms under which other people acquired your source code originally released under the prior license. My personal feeling is that if you ever write software you want or strongly believe you're going to capitalize on later, you don't want to release it to open source. Others may disagree, and may have good arguments for doing so. I believe it's better to be safe than sorry. Paul

Firstly, the above code contains a bug: str += i; should be: str += buffer[i]; Also, I have found a simple way of using the above function with iostreams. It works like this:struct FormatXML { tstring str_; explicit FormatXML(const tstring& str) : str_(str) { XMLSafeString(str_); } friend std::ostream& operator<<(std::ostream& s, const FormatXML& x) { s << x.str_; return s; } }; This copies the input string, and performs the XML safety check on construction. The safe string is then passed into the stream. It would be used like this: tstring str = _T("My string with \"Quotes\"."); myostream << FormatXML(str); This isn't very efficient, however. :(( Therefore, I'm still on the lookout for cool code. Let me know! -- Simon Steele Programmers Notepad - http://www.pnotepad.org/

I'm currently running FREESCO (stands for FREE ciSCO)[^] on an old Pentium 75 with two NIC cards. My ADSL modem is hooked into one of the cards while the other feeds into a 4 port hub. It was relatively easy to setup and considering I had all the old hardware kicking around, it was cheap too. If you have an old computer kicking around, then I would say that this is the way I’d go. cheers, -B

Thanks for that Shog9 - I was unsure of how to do that and hadn't taken the time to look. I'm assuming the icon is being redrawn as the mouse moves over the text for the items - and the new image is blended with the old. Nasty - bad Microsoft :) Any more work-arounds or *fixes* would be gratefully accepted. Thanks again, -- Simon Steele Programmers Notepad - www.pnotepad.org
