• Windows Forms When's Terrarium going to work?

  By that i mean - being able to add your own creatures into the game. Or has Terrarium died out now I only discovered this last week and find it fascinating!

  I am currently trying to create tests to test microsofts new CRM application.  I have recorded numerous web tests, but they will stop working after a change is made to the application.  As far as I can tell it is linked to an import of the configuration from another server.  When the script does a form post of the information submitted in the test, it gets back an error stating that the form has expired.  I can re-record the ...Show All

• Visual C++ Standard Conversions

  This code in Visual Studio.NET 2005: int x(1.5); //Warning: truncation and possible loss of data int y(x); //OK int z = int (1.5); //OK Why is int(1.5) OK I thought the int(1.5) was the "constructor form" for initializing variables so that int x(1.5) and int z = int(1.5) are equivalent. That is, I should get warnings on both lines of code because in both cases an int is built from 1.5, which is al ...Show All

• Visual C++ C4533 warning, "initialization skipped by goto"

  Is this warning buggy in MSVC 7.1 or is it just a stupid warning In the example given here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/library/f7687yks.aspx It makes sense because the condition, (1) will always be true and the goto will always skip the initialization. But the following code gives me the same C4533 warning and it makes absolutely no sense why it should. #include <iostream> using namespace std; struct TOILET {   &n ...Show All
