If you can add some more details, that might help some. My gut says there is a permissioning issue, but need to know more. What does "it" refer to in "this code it goes in to read only mode"? How are you "manually" changing the data. Through a form, a web service, etc.

Just a guess but perhaps the call to is_epmty() returns true when there are no files but the path may contain other directories.

Just guessing, but it seems like you are sending the PDF directly to the printer and bypassing all printing operations. Some software, ie. Adobe or others, will still be required to render the PDF in order to print it.

It would be clearer knowing what is the type of m_string? Is it really a string type or a list type? Also what is the type of 't'?

You comment that a filename is repeated. But it appears to me rather that it is perhaps a special file of some sort as it starts with a '.' character. Is it possible that this is causing problems for the function readdir().

Add some <pre> tags around your code. I think it has been messed up with out them.

Why do you need a for loop? Just print the string "*\n**\n***\n****\n".

Can you provide a clearer definition of "unregistered user". By what means are you trying to identify users? Is it by some session identifier you provide to the browser? Does each user provide a userid and password instead?

Could you please add more context to your question, such as some brief code example. A C++ pointer by itself will not have data members, if that is what "px and pn in a pointer" is referring to.

It would be helpful if you could explain what "doesn't work!" means. Do you have compiler errors? Linker errors. When it runs, what do you expect for results?

Change it to select to_char(woman_count,'9999')||':'||to_char(man_count,'9999'). Do a search for differrent format specifiers for the to_char function, too.

Well actually I can say it. But you are correct that without an understanding of the boost libraries, the comment may have little or no value. That was the reason for my other comment. The real question would have been better put as to what is your experience with boost. :)

Might have been better for the interviewer to have just simply asked, "Are you familiar or experienced in using the boost libraries.".

Thanks. If the other clients had been statically linked, you could get by without doing anything for them. Since they dynamically link, you do have to be careful of the .h file changes. Would it not be possible to put your new functions in another library?

Well for starters, you're going to need this line

Perhaps it is immaterial, but how does (1.6+1.3+1.8+1.9+11.69)=30.4 ?? and (3.2+4.9)=13 ?? The first sum should result in 18.29 and the second in 8.1? Seems odd.

The OP might be referring to what are known as the Greeks. Alpha, Beta, etc. Each one has a financial definition and typically requires very specific data sets. For example the Delta for an option typically refers to how much the price of the option will change for a $1 change in the actual stock. If that is what he/she is after, they should likely look at some financial oriented web sites/forums for assistance.

Good Answer. The ITEMCHANGED message can indicate many different changes. It's important to verify what is actually changing in the handler and react appropriately. It's been awhile since I've looked at list controls, but I doubt that a SetItemText call causes the message. It is more often the result of some user action.

It is a measure of how much a web page smells. The more it stinks, the higher the rank and vice-versa. I believe there are lots of optimizations available to make a page really stinky and thus have a much higher rank than others. These will help you sniff out better results when searching. :)

Thanks for the suggestions, Moak. I've further testing to confirm, but as odd as this sounds, the process that is calling MAPILogonEx fails with the access violation only when it is started with a very large command line, > 4K. Either my command line processing, which occurs first is doing something it shouldn't, or MAPILogonEx is doing something that isn't documented well :)
