• .NET Development (In)Validate my reasoning

  Hi, I have a design concern that might be nicely solved by remoting, assuming my reasoning is right. Assume the standard situation: I have a (HTTP) server and many, many clients. Due to reasons outside of scope of this post, I expose the server in a REST-ful manner - the method calls' parameters get mapped to query parameters of the URL and the result is a custom binary format (but you can imagine the result to be an XML, it doesn't change muc ...Show All

• Visual C++ BUG; isalnum - asserts in debug build

  If you try (using VS2005) isalnum('￡') then you get an assert. The problem lies in '￡' being cast to an int -93. This is then cast to an unsigned and checked to see if it is withing 0 to 255. As -93 cast to an unsigned will give a huge number, we then get an assert. Andy Cooper From MSDN: When used with a debug CRT library, isalnum will display a CRT assert if passed a parameter that i ...Show All
