Aside from mostly corner cases (and the infamous for loop scope), my experience is that it mostly trivial to make VC6 code build on newer versions of visual studio.
Do you have any examples of something that crashes?

In Topic: c++ IDE preferences

I am a little curious about CodeLite. I heard a little about it but never tried it. It doesn't seem to get as much attention as the other IDEs mentioned in this thread.
Does anyone here have any experience with it? Is it any good?

In Topic: What do you think of my encryption algorithm
19 April 2013 - 01:07 PM
As you said for encryption to be secure you have to assume that the attacker knows the algorithm.
Also 32 bit sounds like an awful trivial secure key. Considering something like RSA which has been around for over 35 years uses keys over 1024 bit in length.
It's not really comparable that way, RSA is an asymmetric cipher. The thread is about a stream cipher. Apples to oranges.
But I agree that the security of the discussed cipher is trivial.
In Topic: What is mostly use multi flatform GUI library WXW? or something else
16 April 2013 - 03:46 PM
What GUI toolkit you should chose does sometimes depend on what kind of result you want. The two big cross-platform ones are wxWidgets and Qt.
wxWidgets is just a thin wrapper around the platforms native controls, so it will always use the native GUI widgets of the platform, while Qt simluates them instead. This can cause subtle differences between your program and other programs on the platform. If that is a big deal to you, wxWidgets might be better. If it's not, you could use Qt.

In Topic: What windows messages should a well behaved app support?

According to the Windows 7 logo certification guidelines, which define what Microsoft thinks is a well behaved app, all applications must handle WM_QUERYENDSESSION and WM_ENDSESSION.

Why even answer if that's all you have to say?

Precisely those messages needed to do its job - no more, no less.
