Lounge posts take on a whole new level of entertainment when you pass them through the various dialects in the Dialectizer: http://www.rinkworks.com/dialect/[^] Just put the site adress in and select the dialect of your choice. Amusing. What can I say. It doesn't take much to amuse me late on a Friday afternoon before a 3 day weekend here in the USA.

It's in a thread where it's listening for something from a TCPIP connection (sort of a command channel). It's low-volume, and as such, I don't think the "cleverness" is warranted. And no, it's not commented at all. It's not that I don't understand what he was doing. I just think he was being too clever for his own good. And in the (unlikely?) event that the code is ever ported to a big-endian system, it would be completely broken.

C++ code. This is either brilliant, or just bloody awful. I'm coming down on the side of "bloody awful": recv in the curr structure below is declared as:

BYTE recv\[64\];

DWORD   verb;
...
verb = (upper\[curr->recv\[0\]\] << 24) + (upper\[curr->recv\[1\]\] << 16) + (upper\[curr->recv\[2\]\] << 8) + 0x20;

switch (verb)
{
case 'CMD ':
   ...
   break;

case 'MON ':
   ...
   break;

case 'END ':
   ...
   break;

case 'EXT ':
   ...
   break;

default:
    ...
    break;
}

Pretty funny. 20 hilarious programming jargon-phrases you should know when talking to engineers.[^] P.S. I did a search and did not find this. If it's a repost, then, "Oh well."

I work with another developer who has invented his own code-formatting pattern that I have decided to name the "Horribly Ugly Really Lame" pattern (HURL for short), because that's what it makes me want to do every time I look at his C/C++ source code. X|
