Thread: okey another section, pls post here the 'things to remember' :)

thanks guys, i'm collecting these things coz i'm planning to make a website for this, to act as a reference or something,

okey here goes my example,

Always remember to attach the '&' on a variable when passing it on a function that asks for pointer, do not typecast it.

example,

function(LPCSTR* variable);

should be...
function(&variable);

and not...
function((LPCSTR)variable);

nobody contributing? hmm.,

okey, remember that pointers are 4 bytes

sizeof(pointer) = 4;

to get the exact length of a pointer to a string, use strlen()

not if the pointers are on the free store
