I need to convert from type "char (*)[256]" to "char*" because I have a function that requires it. I have tried changing the function, I have tried all kinds of things, but none have worked. I have tried casting too. Anyone have any suggestions. What I am trying to do is copy a string onto a fixed size character array, and I have having more trouble that I should. Any help would be appreciated.

Working in C++ here. Here's the simplified problem: I need multiple classes to all inherit from the base class, let's say "Fruit" for now. I keep all of my classes in separate files (.cpp and .h files), where .h has mainly prototypes and .cpp contains function defs. I'm having issues with the #include statements. Apple works fine, but when I incorporate Orange, I get errors concerning class ...

I installed VC# 2008 Express. Following the lessons at C# School at programmersheaven.com, I tried to compile the sample app HelloWorld from the command prompt via: csc HelloWorld.cs but I got back: 'csc' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. As far as I know, the VC# install is OK. When I did the install, it said it was ...

Code: #include<iostream.h> #include<string.h> enum Status{outoforder,ok}; //enum bool{false,true}; template <class T> class List{ public : List () { } List (int s){ maxSize=s; used=0; a= new T [maxSize]; } //~List () { delete []a;} bool addObjects(T p){ if (!isFull()){ a[used]=p; used ++; return true; } else return false...

I'd give a different name . Seriously, which is your programming language?

I was a programmer for 4 years ending 12 years ago. Back then it was all procedural, not object oriented. Now I'm 45. On the other hand, I'm bright and motivated (and for what it's worth, I've got a Bachelor's degree in engineering from 20 years ago). If I work hard and learn what I need to, is there any way in hell I can break back into programming? No doom and gloom, no "happy crap", just what ...

Are consulting firms or temp agencies a good way to get an entry-level programming job?

I'm trying to break back into programming after 12 years away. I was a programmer for only about 4 years but I was good at it. I coded mostly in C and Pascal. I have no degree in computer science but I have a 20 year old four-year engineering degree. People have suggested I go back to school. I'm middle aged and I don't have time for a four- or even two-year degree. Some have suggested ...

I'm using Share Point 2007 with MS Access 2007 as an inexpensive contact management system. The trouble is when I run a query, I receive a 3027 (Destination is Read Only) error. If I go to the Table and open it, I can easily add whatever I want without error messages. But, if I run a SQL query or run a query (created through Access' Query Builder), both will tell me that I can't. Any ...
