Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

I used to use preprocessor macros, but this is much safer.

C++'s lambda expressions are sexy and they know it.

I knew lambdas or closures would be the way to do it! :P

Code: [Select]
    auto IncrementCounters = [&]()
That is sexy. Damn, I knew I shouldn't have just glossed over those c++11 changes.

*sigh* Damn getting something to compile in visual studio is a bitch. After implementing some previously variadic classes and functions with a tonne of overloads and template specialisations (yaaay, let's see how quickly *that* breaks) I'm having to do some more tricks to get around that Visual Studio doesn't support default/deleting constructors, which are very useful when combined with the new looser POD requirements. Plus all the defines of JML_CONSTEXPR to get around visual studio not supporting constexpr yet.

And then there's the way it doesn't even support C99 features like variables in initializer lists for POD types...argh.

In other news: Just read a review of the Doom 3 source: http://fabiensanglard.net/doom3/index.php Is awesome, yah? :P

**********

Okay, mega fuck Visual Studio. Why the *devil* does having a virtual destructor implemented in a cpp for exactly *one* of my classes give me a linker error, and a virtual destructor implemented inline in a hpp file work perfectly? What weird arse behaviour is this?

Has anybody here used libtcod with C++? And if so, do you know of any tutorials for it? I've trawled Google for quite some time, but I can only find one tutorial for Python. Another person was working on converting the Python tutorial to C++, but that was a year ago and the only link in the thread to the converted code is broken.

The wiki/documentation had extensive C++ examples, last time I used it...

MorleyDev: cygwin + gcc. Or CodeBlocks + MinGW. Take your pick.

I'm using the nuwen build of gcc 4.7 with Eclipse mostly (Eclipse has some fairly good template autocomplete support) ^^ I was mostly just getting it to work in Visual Studio to see if I could.

Conclusion: The Visual C++ is a terrible compiler when working in just native C++. Random features from both the old and new the standards are missing, with which features are not present seemingly being completely arbitrary. Initialiser lists for constructing POD types? Explicit Operators? Constexpr? Who needs those, have some Metro!

Not to mention some of the limitations placed upon using C++/CLI for getting code to work with .NET are ridiculously needless. Why can't I include thread, mutex or conditional_variable? You support them in the native C++ compiler. Why does C++/CLI not allow them? Of course boost::thread will work fine, why wouldn't it? Why don't thread, mutex and conditional variables from the STL? What madness did conceive thee vile hellspawn of a compiler!?!?!

Not only that, but Visual C++ allows for so much stuff that isn't allowed by standards. I once did really poor on a programming project because I had to spend most of my time trying to get the prof's work to compile before I could even complete the parts that needed completing.

I've a question about C++ and dynamic memory: I've been thinking that whenever there is a "new" somewhere in the code, there should always, always be a "delete" or "delete[]" somewhere else. Is this a reasonable guideline?
