  • Small bug in the MSDN documentation

    Hardly worth mentioning, but there is a minor bug in the documentation of fopen and its friends. The remarks section lists the open mode encoding for 16 bit unicode as UTF16-LE instead of UTF-16LE. As I said it is very minor, but if you use fopen, care about the documentation and have 5 minutes to spare...

  • How not to ask question on a forum

My question is ... <snip> Not that I...

  • Programmer discovers that floating point numbers have a floating point

  • Stuck on stupid

    It happens to every programmer. It doesn't happen often, but it does happen to everyone. You are looking at a piece of code or some debugging output, scratching your head and thinking 'This is impossible'. It's probably only 10 or 20 lines of code or text, and you've looked carefully...

  • I stand corrected: not all C++ programmers hate VB

    As I already mentioned before, it's a small world after all. (Hearing that annoying Disney tune yet in your head J ). I am writing an article about C++/CLI in which I use a quote from my fellow VC++ MVP Kate Gregory. I did a quick search to find her blog in order to link it to her name in the article...
