• Visual C++ Exposing the base constuctors from derived classes.

  Hi, I'm trying to extend the std::basic_string class by adding some additional overloads here and there... I know that you can "re-expose" functions ahta re hidden by the derived class by using "using BaseClass::FunctionName". However, I can't do it with base constructors... it goes something like this: class BaseClass { public: BaseClass( int i ) { cout << "Base: " << i << "\n"; } BaseClass() { cout << "Base\n"; } void print( char *str ) { cout << str; } }; class DerivedClass : public BaseClass { public: DerivedClass( float f ) { cout ...Show All

• SQL Server Stored Procedure being saved in System Stored Procedures

  We recently upgraded to SQL Server 2005. We had several stored procedures in the master database and, rather than completely rewriting a lot of code, we just recreated these stored procedures in the new master database. For some reason, some of these stored procedures are getting stored as "System Stored Procedures" rather than just as "Stored Procedures". Queries to sys.Objects and sys.Procedures shows that these procs are being saved with the is_ms_shipped field set to 1, even though they obviously were not shipped with the product. I can't update the sys.Objects or sys.Procedures views in 2005. What effect wi ...Show All
