I don't think the Internets Providers would like what you are saying.

the tube that the websites come through must be blocked, but the tube for games isn't. the internets are a bunch of tubes.

was he in a spaceship when he published the article via the quantum internets?

So all this time i've spent developing my .NET skills has been a waste of time and I should be learning how to develop for Linux is what you are saying?

cyborg implants, duh...

it is a demonstration of l'hopital's law of fluid mechanics. the people being crammed into the edge of the doorway of the train and not moving are in the 'boundary layer'.

er, um, i was just going off the top of my head of some things i had remembered from my own trip there many years ago (eight to be exact). i thought that stuff they served with 'proper' english breakfasts was called 'blood pudding' (like that polish food that i can't seem to remember the name of right now) and 'black pudding' was a monster from dungeons and dragons, along with geletaneous cubes and such, my memory is not so good. i remember 'lorry' and 'carriageway' because i was on a carriageway when a lorry crossed the center and there was a terrible accident and the 'road' was shut down for eight hours. from wikipedia: Black pudding or less often blood pudding is a sausage made by cooking blood with a filler until it is thick enough to congeal when cooled oooh, that reminds me of 'chips and beans' or 'beans and chips' that they were so fond of over there. ah, memories.

How'd you like the bangers and the blood pudding and calling sidewalks footpaths and elevators lifts and shrimp prawns and trucks lorries and streets carriageways and...

the 'sharp' symbol is actually four 'plus' signs, so you could also pronounce it 'c-plus-plus-plus-plus'

ahh, I saw that linker dialogue, but didn't know how to set it up. thanks again!

I have read the article 'DLLs are simple: Part 2' and have successfully moved the code for my Table class into it's own project / .dll. The example was for VC++ 6.0, whereas my application is in VS 2005. The main difference was the 'Project > Settings > Link (tab)' -- this doesn't exist in VS2005. To add the .lib file to the project, I put it in the main project directory and right-clicked on the solution and added an existing item, for file type I had to select 'all file types *.*', and added the .lib file to the project. I put the .dll in the debug folder, where the .exe gets put after a build. What I haven't done yet is to add my .dll project to the main project. I plan to add a new class library to the main application project, and copy and paste the code from the .dll project into it, and hope that it creates a .dll file, a .lib file, and a .exe file. The hope is that I would then be able to take the .dll, .lib, and .h file and use it in other projects. The purpose of this was to create a fast distance function, which does not call the sqrt function. It takes two or three parameters and returns length of the 'hypotenuse' without using sqrt. With a lookup table of only three points, I get an accuracy of within 1.5%, more than good enough for my level of detail calculations. It will be interesting to see if my function is actually faster or not. Steve

did you cash the check?

Thanks!

I have a 'Table' object (reads a text file to create a table and return table picks). I have moved the code into it's own class library project, and I wish to call the code in the .dll from the main app. The class library project compiles to a .dll, but I don't know how to add it to the main project. I have addded the header file to the main project, and put the .dll in the source directory and debug directories. How do I add a reference to the .dll? Do I use '#include' or '#using'? How do I declare / instantiate the object, etc. (my attempts broke the build). What are the basic steps to do this? Can I put both projects in the same solution? Both are in C++ / VS2005. THe main app is from the DirectX SDK April 2007. Thanks, Steve

the commodore vic-20 was the predecessor to the commodore 64 (which i believe is what you are referring too). all that power in a c-64, with all that memory and 9 hardware sprites, would be too much for a newbie.

the same way we all did. buy a vic-20, and start typing in programs from compute! magazine.

i thought you were going to say "and all I got was this lousy t-shirt"

you're doing a lot better than that guy talking about what he's doing with his right hand and his left hand.

i just use disasters to justify more money, without doing anything to solve the problem.
