Corey, Some give run-time errors in debug mode (in release mode it 'works', but is probably silent data corruption). The last int* p1 = p1 gives a compiler error. I was trying to list all the pathological uses of memory. In practice of course, new and delete are separated in code, so it is not clear what to do. I have the following categories wild pointers (int* m; delete m) dangling pointers double free bug memory leak I think that...

Thanks Cuchulainn, that was very illuminating. Happy new year to you all wilmotters .

I think a viable strategy for "spare" time is to get better at what you are good at. To get the best jobs, you must beat others, and that means a different balance between competent at many things and shit hot at fewer. Out the other side of the MFE, moving from (I'm guessing) the top half of MFEs in C++to the top 10% of MFEs who've done C++, is achievable and vastly more useful than getting a bit of the other languages....

See http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2008/n2497.html boost.thread should basically implement what is presented in this paper.

Try allocating all the objects at once, then copy missing the vtable pointer. If allocating an inherited class, see if you can miss the vtable pointer faster by copying the memory at one time..... ....might be something like this...where base_class is the base class name and object is your source object if you can figure out the memory offset.... memcpy(((base_class*)this)+1, object, sizeof(*this) - sizeof(class base_class)); Edited: Thu Dec...

Java generics are simply something different than C++ templates. C++ templates are compile-time, while Java generics are run-time. BTW, runtime code injection is easy in Java, which means that my code can be almost completely decoupled from the database layer, for example, to the...

Say you have a Macbook pro which is three years old. You want to sell to a store and buy another new one. In the States where can we sell it to other than e-bay?

J, assuming you've got sshd running on your Mac ( if you don't know, see http://support.apple.com/kb/TA20443?viewlocale=en_US ), any ssh client will do -- e.g. PuTTY http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
