I have two questions for you:
1.
by what magic is value going to track the values in the list, you only assign it once, outside the loop?
2.
don't you think you should be able to find the answer yourself, with Google and everything at your disposal?
It never hurts to look up the reference information, e.g. in MSDN[^].

LOL! that's an embarrassing mistake D: I see I do understand it but just made some stupid mistake >.> of course it should be
value = va_arg(args, double); instead of just
va_arg(args, double)
thanks anyways

Just on a sidenote:
I do wonder why the authors thought to dig up one of the worst elements of the Dark Ages Of C in a work called 'C++ essentials'! If this was labelled 'C++ complete' or something like that I'd grudgingly admit that this is still part of the language and as such belongs here. But the term 'essentials' indicate that everything in there is required for desgning good C++ code. Yet the opposite is true in this case!
While streams may be harder to implement and use, they are much safer, and provide the full functionality of varargs. The only reason to use them in a C++ program is for the purpose of interpreting arguments in a command line application. (and it's sad that the C++ standards committee never thought to provide a better interface for that purpose!)

Assume thread B is created while thread A is in the middle of executing.
Q1. is it possible that B starts before A was completed?
Q2. if yes, how do you treat shared resources used by the 2 threads, i.e. pointer p is deleted by B but A is still using the pointer?

Q1: Yes. Unless you use some kind of thread synchronization you can make no assumptions about what thread finishes when.
Q2: Use synchronization[^]. You need to synchronize access from multiple threads to any objects that aren't specifically thread safe.

A1. Of course, in the same way your Excel sheet could be recalculating while you are typing text in Word.
A2. Thread synchronization.
You should look at threads in an application like employees in a company; each of them can do as they like or are told, if you don't manage, i.e. organize and synchronize them, a mess will ensue.

Guys,
I have a problem with CDC::DrawText() and I have been sitting here wasting away my Sunday trying to figure it out. The problem is that it does not draw the text in the position I expect it to be. The following code is supposed to draw a rectangle, then draw the text in the box, using the style (DT_LEFT, DT_CENTER or DT_RIGHT).
CBrush brush(m_background[nIndex]);
CBrush* pOldBrush = pDC->SelectObject(&brush);
pDC->SetBkColor(m_background[nIndex]);
pDC->SetBkMode(OPAQUE);
pDC->SelectStockObject(NULL_PEN);
pDC->Rectangle(m_hitRect);
pDC->SelectObject(pOldBrush);
pDC->SetBkMode(TRANSPARENT);
pDC->DrawText(txt,m_hitRect, m_nStyle | DT_SINGLELINE | DT_VCENTER);
The text appears in the box (but not in the correct position) when I use DT_CENTER or DT_RIGHT but is not drwn at all with DT_LEFT (I think its outside the rect).
Please help, I really should be cutting the grass! 
Tony

Check the values in m_hitRect, I don't think we can guess what they are.
[edit]It is also worth checking the return value from the DrawText() call to verify that it did what you expect.[/edit]

You don't show the values of variables so it's hard to guess.
If you strip it down and hardcode values it works fine...
CString txt = _T("This is the text!");
CRect m_hitRect(10,10,200,40);
dc.Rectangle(m_hitRect);
dc.DrawText(txt,m_hitRect, DT_LEFT | DT_SINGLELINE | DT_VCENTER);

Hi thanks for the reply. I figured out what it was, and as usual its something dumb and not in the area I was looking in.
A long, long time ago I had padded out the right hand side of the string with spaces (not sure why I did this). Anyway, as you can imagine, this would totally screw up the justification.
Oh well, that grass wont mow itself 
Thanks

You may as well ask how to build a car with tools. Try reading the documentation and help, or Google for tutorials or information on MSDN.

hello guys... I have this array which has 5 elements in it like this.
int arr[] = {1,2,3,4,5};
Now how do I find the length of this array? thnx
|
|
|
|

Not completely sure what you mean, but try this:
#define ARRAY_LENGTH(array) (sizeof(array) / sizeof(array[0]))
and use it like:
int my_array_len = ARRAY_LENGTH(arr);

The size of the array, or the number of elements?

Use sizeof(arr) / 4;
#include <stdio.h>
void main()
{
int arr[] = {1,2,3,4,5};
int x = sizeof(arr)/4;
printf("sizeof(arr) = %d \n", x );
}

|
|
|
|
int main()
{
int a[] = {1,2,3,4,5};
printf("%d",sizeof(a)/sizeof(int));
getch();
}

hi everyone
i have a question
how can I compute space complexity O()?
and is it any already function in C++ to compute it?

The whole point of complexity analysis is finding an estimate based on certain premises, usually the premise that this is a worst-case scenario. The only way to find out about that is knowing the whole program and the algorithms involved in that scenario.
For a full analysis you'd need to find all possible call paths, then start at the lowest level, i. e. functions that do not call any other functions, and analyze their complexity. The you go a level higher and do the same, using the complexity values you've already calculated from the lowest level functions. So you work your way up, until you are able to determine the complexity of main().
Of course, it isn't quite as easy as that: If you use multithreading you will need to consider the cost of synchronisation, and at the same time consider shared resources, and make sure you don't count them multiple times. If you have recursive calls, you need to determine the recursion depth. And worst of all, for every conditional branch, including end-of-loop conditions , you need to estimate the likelyhood for each branch.
Also, space complexity has the added complication that it can be reduced temporarily, making it impossible to determine the complexity of multi-threaded applications.
The biggest problem however is, that even the lowest level functions in your application may need to call system functions, drivers, or other external functionality that you don't possess any complexity information about.
Currently there is no system that can automate this process. And a full-fledged analysis of the whole system as described above is impossible to do manually for all but the most trivial applications. So the only way to do this is by looking at the parts of the system that you think are most critical and important to your users, and manually estimate the complexity for that.

Hi,
I am developing application which is launched by another application. I wanted to notify the parent application (the launcher) that the task successful or failed. So I need to pass the main window handle of the launcher application to my second application like /CallingProgramWindow="0001009C". Then how can i convert the string back to window handle. And is this method is the right way to do this.? I am using VC++ to develop the application.
Thanks
