After a major redesign and rework of one of my systems I've come across a bit of a problem that I'm stumped on.

wow, fast reply, and good, thankyou.
I ruled out the parsing method because i decided that having a bullet-proof parsing method that could handle anything was going to be a mammoth task prone to error, not to mention little bugs that could arise f... |

Static initialization within a library

Well this is bit of a headache, luckily I'm not too worried right now about cross compiler portability, so long as it compiles on MSVC I'm happy, so the pragma option should work.
The only problem is, I've never come across dumpbin befor... |

Messaging system - Handling message subject enumerations

Hey Matt,
Sorry for taking so long to reply, and wow that was a long descriptive post. What I gather from it however is that it is a proposal of using a callback system, where a class would have to register with every message it would ever be inte... |

Messaging system - Handling message subject enumerations

Using that suggestion how would I go about determining the type of the message when it is received? The main reason I dont want to use std::strings as the message subject is that I would rather not go through and rewrite 3 projects worth of statement... |

This function will... |
