I dont think both things are same.
in first case 'i' will be incremented after the entire statement.
in second case i will be incremented after first fn2() call.
Is this right??
Have you tried
only int res = fn(ar[i++] | ar[i++]); this scenario in all VS environments??

Hi, I was wondering how I may go about reading in a raw AVI file, as I have one and would like to convert it to another format such as WMV3. Are there any recommended libraries for this sort of work?
Thanks

the simplest way to read an AVI is with AVIFileOpen (and its many friends). if you need more than simple frame extraction, you'll need to take a look at DirectShow (or whatever MS calls it these days).

Hello, I have tried to use the following code in order to get the caret position from another applications windows
dwCaretID = GetWindowThreadProcessId(hCaret,NULL);
if (AttachThreadInput(dwCurrentID,dwCaretID,TRUE))
{
GUITHREADINFO lpgui;
lpgui.cbSize = sizeof(GUITHREADINFO);
GetGUIThreadInfo(dwCaretID,&pgui);
RECT caret_rect = lpgui.rcCaret;
}
The caret position is being retrieved successfully in some of the applications I tested, but in Internet Explorer although I get the caret window, the caret rect is (0,0,0,0).
Does somebody have an idea how can I get the right position?
Thank you very much.
T.R.

I thought IE used "windowless controls". Can you see the controls window using SPY++ ?

I had the code somewhere for fiquiring when a year was a Leap Year, but I can't find it anywhere(C++). Could someone please show me how to figuire it(MFC)?
Thanks in advance.

not code but this is how to calculate leap years:
A year will be a leap year if it is divisible by 4 but not by 100. If a year is divisible by 4 and by 100, it is not a leap year unless it is also divisible by 400.
Thus years such as 1996, 1992, 1988 and so on are leap years because they are divisible by 4 but not by 100. For century years, the 400 rule is important. Thus, century years 1900, 1800 and 1700 while all still divisible by 4 are also exactly divisible by 100. As they are not further divisible by 400, they are not leap years.
Why is common sense not common?

Do you need to calculate leap year or do you need to determine if leap year to perform other calculations (Age, difference, etc...)?
If yes to first, www.wikipedia.org has all the mathematical and historical details.
If yes to the latter, use COleDateTime as it will do all the calculations for you. It can be used to validate a date as well.

In the program I'm writing I complete several editboxes with dates according to the need. I need to know before I fill-in the dates if it is a leap year; otherwise the key element in the program will fail. I must know exactly(programmatically) whether the user is in a leap year or not;

What is it? Regardless, if "it" is a valid year, just mod it with 4, and 100 (and 400 if necessary) to determine its leapness.

I know I can trigger (from C++) the current user to be logged out of Windows (XP/Vista). Is it possible to SWITCH users either by triggering a logout/login or by triggering a fast user switch without the user having to do anything like enter their password, etc.?
I would like to have a UI where a user can choose to switch to another user in one step (assuming they know the target password) without going through the Windows login screen.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Barry Etter

Hi,
I want a very fast and optimized, yet, open source quicksort implementation.
We have a real-time system and the bottle-neck is qsort, STL qsort is even far worse than ours, maybe because of the "compare" function calls that take place.
BTW, our qsort algorithm is written by an average programmer so it is not likely to be optimum.
Thanks,
Mohammad

Is the bottleneck the quicksort itself or the comparison or swap operations ?
If your data is already nearly sorted, quicksort will be slow(er); it will will get to a complexity of N instead ( N log N )
Slightly off-topic without knowing the details, but do you need to do a quicksort at all ? do you have that much information that you need
to sort in "real-time" ? is your data unsorted that you always need to re-sort it ?
|
|
|
|

Yes, the bottle-neck is qsort itself, the comparison is done for floating-point data, and swapping is just some part of qsort.
My data aren't sorted at all, almost random..and I do need to sort my data before I can process them.
Thanks,
Mohammad

Have you looked at the code in ...\VC98\CRT\SRC\Qsort.c file for ideas?

Thanks for the reply.
No, I haven't.. but I will do this now..

Have you tried the implementation in "Fundamentals of Program Design and Data Structures with C++" by Kenneth A. Lambert and Thomas L. Naps?
(Pages 398-399)
A large number of quicksort implementations appear to swap too much. Lambert and Naps minimize the swapping in their implementation. This could be of value since, to the best of my knowledge, a memory write is more expensive than a memory read. Correct me if I'm wrong though.

Isn't it that one in the STL? yes it is slower than an ordinary qsort algorithm, this might be due to the excessive function calls that call the "compare" function. we use simple ">" and "<" operators instead of function calls

Try using std::sort[^]. Here's an example:
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <ctime>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <iterator>
#include <algorithm>
using namespace std;
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
vector<int> numbers;
srand(static_cast<unsigned>(time(NULL)));
generate_n(back_inserter(numbers), 10, &rand);
cout << "Not sorted:" << endl;
copy(numbers.begin(), numbers.end(), ostream_iterator<int>(cout, "\n"));
cout << endl;
sort(numbers.begin(), numbers.end());
cout << "Sorted:" << endl;
copy(numbers.begin(), numbers.end(), ostream_iterator<int>(cout, "\n"));
cout << endl;
return 0;
}

I second that suggestion of using std::sort (for the second time, last time you and I together having done an argument on this topic with another CPian, if I remember). There should be no reason why one should use qsort when std::sort can be used.

Profile your code and find out where the bottle neck is. STL's sort should work fine.
