Not a stupid question, indeed. C++ can be considered as an evolution
of C where object-oriented concepts have been introduced. Those
concepts can also be found by example in Smalltalk, ADA or JAVA
languages. If you're not familiar with object-oriented methodologies
and languages, please consider buying relevant books describing
methods such as OMT or UML and languages such as C++ in your
case. There are hundreds and it's forth reading.
And now my contribution to the numerous questions of this
mailing-list :
Because I'm working in the embedded systems field, we are often
short of ressources (RAM and ROM) and sometimes of relevant compilers
for C++. In that direction, I started to write my own C++ to ANSI C
converter, limiting myself to basic features (no templates for
instance). Does anybody have experience on this topic or know where I
could get sources of such a tool ?
And a last one :
I designed once a custom language compiler and made it run on Sun
Solaris stations. I have successfully compiled it using GNU-WIN32
Beta 19.1 but when I start the executable with a huge input file, it
crashes with a STATUS ACCESS VIOLATION message and I cannot clearly
identify which line is causing the problem under GDB. This is not
occurring under Sun/Solaris. Since my compiler is using intensively
recursion, I expect stack size to be exceeded. I looked desesperatly
in the documentation but it seems that there's no stack size
adjustement option. How to deal with stack size adjustement and how
to know if my problem comes or not from there ? Please help !
Many thanks,
