    What computer should I buy?

    My budget is similar to $1000 USD.

    As a developer, I am looking at buying a new computer. I primarily develop software in C and Windows currently, as well as more cross-platform games using the...
  3. I thought about that later, that I could just...

    I thought about that later, that I could just create the structure as a single node on the heap just as easily. It wouldn't really change how I declare it, except I would have to add a handful of...
  4. Well it's easier than having to keep track of a...

    Well it's easier than having to keep track of a lot of data for each function separately. Most of the biggest pieces of data are dynamically allocated in linked lists and the sort though.
  5. Well, I know my project size wouldn't matter. I'm...

    Well, I know my project size wouldn't matter. I'm just saying I keep all my data in a main structure that functions as a storage device for all my functions. I was wondering what might happen if I...
  6. Is there a explicit limit on the main thread stack size?

    I was wondering this, because I have a structure in a fairly large project I work on consistently that seems to grow exponentially by the day. I don't know if in C the stack grows automatically if...
  7. Should I consider including my .DLL source code in my program?

    I have a DLL written in C which I link dynamically by executing the following line of functions.


    /* Preprocessor directives */


    /* Prepare for C-style declarations */
    #ifdef __cplusplus...
  8. Thanks, that works.

    Thanks, that works.

    Well, the output value was correct( Again, basing from wikipedia ), except for the third character.


    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <stdlib.h>
    #include <stdint.h>


    #include <string.h>

    Oops, I should've labeled it sixtet. 0x3f is actually 0b00111111, I just mislabeled it.

    Edit : And on that note, it should be FC and be bitshifted over 6 instead of 8.
  11. How do you convert a string to MIME base 64?

    I've been trying to write some code to do what I mentioned in the title, but I haven't had much luck. I get very confused when I deal with bitwise operators, so it's hard for me to write this kind of...

    Huh, I didn't know that it meant I had to bind. I was using Beej's tutorial, I guess that's an area where Unix and Windows aren't the same. Anyways, there were some new problems that have arisen...
  13. Web-Client program using TCP/IP streaming sockets ( winsock )

    Hello, I finally got around to trying to complete my objective in networking I mentioned so long ago. I'm having a spot of trouble connecting to the web-server right now though.

    The error message...

    Making an efficient tiling engine

    I don't usually like to post questions about my game for competition, but I haven't been able to think about a way to render tiles efficiently. Currently, I have a system set up where I parse digits...
  15. Thanks, that makes more sense.

    Thanks, that makes more sense.
  16. They do? Ugh, I did that at first, but I thought...

    They do? Ugh, I did that at first, but I thought that it allocates space in that variable for storage in the header. I thought it would be a naming violation too, so I removed them. It works...

    I don't know either. I've never had it say that about my function pointers before...
  18. I don't link it statically, I link it...

    I don't link it statically, I link it dynamically.

    It was this line here that included it :




    /* Load the DLL dynamically */
    if ( !( game->game_dll = LoadLibrary(...

    Well, it doesn't auto-generate a makefile as far as I can find. It has a dependants file, but it's super long and full of useless information in this case. Looks like to me the relevant information...
  20. It's a compiler error, I didn't post them because...

    It's a compiler error, I didn't post them because I get 50 errors saying in general the same thing. Here is a sample of a few.


    obj\Debug\character.o||In function `update_main_character':|...
  21. How to share imported DLL functions between source files in C?

    I've been trying not to post about my competition project for help since I felt it would be inappropriate, but this is one of the few problems I haven't been able to fix after trying for quite a...

    Has anyone noticed yet that this needs to be moved to C programming because this isn't C++ programming?

    Thanks for that, I'll look into that primer you suggested.
  24. Well, my school has a course called College...

    Well, my school has a course called College Algebra. I've heard it's just a slightly harder version of Algebra II. Then after that it has Trigonometry and of course, Calculus.
  25. What mathematics should I take to have a chance in 3-D graphics?

    I don't really want to do this as a job when I do get out of college, but I think it would be interesting just to go through the basics of 3-D programming. What I want is to know enough to make a...
