Global inline functions, consts and typedefs have internal linkage.That means that the declarations in these two files do not interfere with each other: //File1.c typedef int T; const int a

This tips explains how to list members in an initialization list in the order in which they are declared. Take a class Array: class Array {private: int *m_piData; // ptr

Universal Data link files are handy for select data sources but there isn’t a way to create/edit this files. This little class shows how to read/write a UDL file. ‘———————–‘

When parsing a text file that contains quoted strings – such as a VB source file – you might want to quickly locate and extract all the quoted strings. Thanks

Regular expressions offer an extremely powerful way to search and replace text inside a string using sophisticated search criteria, far behind the capabilities of VB’s InStr and Replace functions. For

A Visual Basic function that counts the number of words in a sentence or text file can become quickly very complex, and usually doesn’t execute fast enough for most purposes.

The following routine extracts all the words from a source string and returns a collection. Optionally, the result contains only unique words.This code is remarkably simpler than an equivalent “pure”

By changing the WS_CHILD style bit of a window, you can make it appear as if it is disabled, even if the form is fully active and functional. These are

Suppose you have an aggregate, i.e., a struct or a union that contain another struct as a member: struct A{ int x; int y;};union B{ A var1; float var2;}; Can

The std::auto_ptr class template handles only a pointer to a single object. This is because it uses scalar delete, never delete[], to destroy the owned object. Therefore, binding auto_ptr to

The Standard Library defines several template adaptors for function pointers. The std::pointer_to_unary_function class template encapsulates a pointer to a single argument function. std::pointer_to_unary_function overloads the () operators so that you

You can initialize static arrays member of a class. The initialization must appear at the place of definition, not inside the class body. For example: class A{private: static char vars[2];

The preprocessor ## operator concatenates macro arguments. For example: #define paste(x,y) x ## y The paste() macro takes two arguments and concatenates them into one. The whitespaces surrounding the ##

Memory is precious in Palm OS, since the total amount of memory available is very small. Dynamic memory allocation is often necessary while building applications in which memory at runtime

You can use the @@TRANCOUNT function to determine whether any open transactions exist and how deeply they are nested.A BEGIN TRANSACTION statement increments @@TRANCOUNT by one, and a ROLLBACK statement

The code below is functionally equivalent to a VB Replace function, but, instead, it allows you to perform an action in a Text type field in a SQL Server Stored

With the SET LOCK_TIMEOUT option, it is possible to set the maximum amount of time that SQL Server allows a transaction to wait for the release of a blocked resource:
