a question that torments me for so much time.
Suppose I'm at the main() function and NEWed a class on the heap.
X x = new X;

After some time, I'm finally managing to get a grip on the C++ language and its libraries, deal with compilers, linkers, etc. I even got my first prototype up and running with a reasonable frame rate, etc.

I'm reading C++ gotchas and there is this code snippet that I can't fully understand.
The author is making a point about the uses of infix and noninfix uses for overloaded operators. Telling when we should just call it as a function or... |

Well, so I wrote it as:
constants.h

Design basics: Callbacks and Listeners classes

Hello all,
It is weird why it took me so long to post this topic. But the problem is: I'm writing the physics manager of my game engine and I still can't see to -really- grasp the concept of callbacks and listener classes.
To be specific, I'm u... |

How to connect the entities manager with the physics manager?

Hi all,
I'm implementing Box2D in my game engine and it is working alright. Box2d, not the engine, that's it.
In the box2d's manual there is a reference to an "actor pointer", where he attachs the physics info to.
Here goes what he says abo... |

How to delete a row in a vectorvectorstring ?
|
Hi, Belphegor.
1.
for template declarations, typename & class are equivalent. Just a matter of personal taste. I prefer typename, since it sounds more "mathematically" correct to me.

Know what? I was always afraid of functors, but I gave it a try and worked flawlessly (and fast). |

How to delete a row in a vectorvectorstring ?
|
cool!
I try it later.
So basically I can tell vector.erase() to get the address of the row and it will deal with it. Then there is no need to remove the elements that each Row holds. Maybe that was my problem.
thanks! |

hi guys,
thanks for the tips! I already have code complete & the GoF Patterns book but haven't read both of 'em. I tried the GoF, but found it incredible difficult (but I was much greener in OOP then..)

I think it's likely your best resource might be the testbed examples that come with Box2D. There are (or at least were) some examples that showed how to respond to various events (e.g. remov... |
