C+ code ?

[Magnum]

Is this C+ by chance ?

I recognize the cout statements from maybe 10 years ago.

I found C+ harder to understand than C and writing batch files.

If you are a perfectionist, the next sentence may show that I have recovered.  :t

I may  "übersetzen das Kode." (schlecht Grammatik - Es tut mir leid) :-)

   static DWORD ThreadProc(PARAMETERS * data){
   fnBeep beep=(fnBeep)data->BEEP;a
   fnMessageBoxA msgbox=(fnMessageBoxA)data->MSGBOX;
   beep(data->freq,data->time);
   msgbox(data->hWnd,data->text,data->title,data->type);

ANDLE hProcess=OpenProcess(PROCESS_ALL_ACCESS,false,PID);
   if(hProcess==NULL){
   cout <<"\nUnable to open process handle.\n\n";
   return 1;

looks like vanilla-flavoured C to me   :P

I think we both have early state dementia.

iostream(C++std)

cerr , cin , clog , cout , wcerr , wcin , wclog , wcout - defines the iostreams objects that manipulate the standard streams
Synopsis

   namespace std {
   extern istream cin;
   extern ostream cout;

ahhh yes - didn't see that
usually, i know i am not interested when i see "methods" (functions) that have periods in them   :P
i guess that is .NOT stuff

Where do you see dots, Dave? To me it looks like the standard ++ variant of Chinese ;-)
They don't print, they cout - which sounds a bit like shout. Indeed the compiler shouts at you if you forgot to put the ";". Not "can't find the end of the line" (which would make sense) but rather something really weird indicating it desperately tried to merge the current with the next line, and it didn't make sense etc...
The arrows in msgbox(data->hWnd,data->text,data->title,data->type); say "these are DWORDs". Don't believe what the documentation says! These are DWORDs, trust me 8)

Finally, ANDLE hProcess indicates "ce code a été écrit par un français". The French cannot pronounce the H, so they often omit it

Judging by the invocation of cout, it's C++.
Anyway, valid C code is usually also a valid C++ code, but not the other way around  ;)

Jochen,

The semicolon is not an EOL marker it's a statement separator. The creators had the foresight to design the language so you can impress people with code like this:

#include <conio.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <windows.h>
__inline int popcount_mult(UINT32 x){UINT32 m1,m2,m4,h01;m1=0x55555555;m2=0x33333333;m4=0x0f0f0f0f;h01=0x01010101;x-=(x>>1)&m1;x=(x&m2)+((x>>2)&m2);x=(x+(x>>4))&m4;return(x*h01)>>24;}
void main(void){printf("%d\n",popcount_mult(1));printf("%d\n",popcount_mult(2));printf("%d\n",popcount_mult(3));getch();}

Michael,

Early BASIC dialects used : to achieve the same effect. Then mysteriously their authors dropped that "feature". Maybe I should stop making fun of the semicolon, the joke is getting stale ;-)

Hi Andy,

the code looks like C++ for me. Could you post the entire source file, please?

Brits are like that also
didn't think the Brits and the French had much in common - lol

i think it's a miss with copy/paste, though   :P

(that's not a typo - guess we can call it a "copyo" ?)

as for the dots - i don't see any in that code
but, i see them in other code - is that C# i think ?
i just know that when i see a function that has a period, i close that page and search elsewhere   :lol:

In C and C++ the dot is used to access a structure(===class) member. The arrow operator is used to dereference a structure/class pointer (it is a short form of (*pStruct).member, whereas * is the dereference operator).
For C# the dot is used for member access.
[However, because the arrow operator also exist in c# (usable in 'unsafe'-blocks), it is maybe also possible to use the arrow operator for that access (I've never seen that)]

[dedndave]

so......
everything is a structure ???

string className = this.GetType().FullName;
System.Reflection.MethodInfo[] methods = this.GetType().GetMethods();
foreach (var method in methods)
    Console.WriteLine(method.Name);

[dedndave]

the "this.xxx" is COM - i am starting to get a handle on that   :P
everything else may as well be Greek Russian

No, the methods of your example simply return further objects, which can access that way: e.g. this.GetType()  returns an object with member FullName.

[dedndave]

all i know is, i have no way of turning that into assembler - lol
i am sure it can be done - i haven't gotten that far
that may not be the best (worst) example of what i mean
