1.10: web.addn/dev.c/ms'visual c++:

(even though my primary goal right now is dev.mac,

I often use a pc tablet/laptop (xpw)

and am interested in a c sdk for that platform)

. vcsetup (in downloads) is for ms`visual c++

see tutorial .

. it has an optional game api;

but I doubted this would help sci c on xpw .

. here is a vid showing the ide;

it needs silverlight in firefox (not chrome) .

1.17: the secret life of globals:

. I was wondering if there was some

sure way of knowing how c globals worked:

. did the value remain persistent across

all platform time,

or just the main program's execution time ?

. the [code complete].book reminds me,

to not even use globals .

. atleast you don't have to depend on

their being persistent: use files .

mem mgt tips:

> According to the memory management rules,

you're only responsible for objects you create via

an "alloc", "new", or "copy" method,

All other objects are autoreleased.

...

Unless your PerformXMLXPathQuery returns an object that you own.

But if it does that,

it should have been given a better name

-- one that has the word alloc, new or copy in it.

...

. the method in question "PerformXMLXPathQuery"

is a wrapper that was obtained from cocoawithlove.com .

sci.addn/dev.c/organizing large programs:

. what's the diff'tween separate files,

and when exactly are we including header files?

(I'm getting confused between what's communicated to

the compiler vs the linker)

. the headers are typically just holding the decl's

which are like the import stmt:

the decl' says

a given function type (the signature of it) will be

found among one of your other files .

. just as there are separate {decl's, def's} for functions,

there can also be separate {decl's, def's} for variables .

. shared var's are just like a pascal global,

except that you get the chance to separately compile .

. if you didn't use separate compilation

then you could simply use the includes for

merging all the separately filed def's

and then you wouldn't need the header files .

news"decl's, def's, and perfectly legal C code, oh my!

stumped by c decl's?

cdecl.org converts them to english .
