Ah, yes, memset and C++ objects is dangerous (more charred fingers). I learned to go very carefully though the list of fields in my constructors.

The code was allready there from stock ID source so might have been an oversight when they started porting stuff from C to C++
atleast its Things that teach you to be very carefull not to treat OO code the same as C hehe.
I learn a bit more every day and while most C operations are also valid in C++ there are a few differences like the
beforementioned example that one has to be aware of.

And merry Christmas all

I just discovered printf "%g". I swear I've read printf formatting docs a million times.

It is rather difficult to identify which version of C it became a standard, so maybe this format specifier didn't always exist or something.

%g prints a float, but without the superfluous zeros 1.000000000000000000000

Yeah, %g is nice. QF has been using it for a while (especially in that builtin that goes to pains to strip trailing 0s). I've almost forgotten %f exists .

Yeah, got same problem here, I was thinking I3D hated my Opera mobile but since I am not the only one having a hard time to login maybe someone could check what's wrong.

The skygods are testing us, to see if we are worthy. Zeus and his friends are having a laugh right now, at our expense ...

Heh recently discovered %p for printing pointers, somewhat weird experience since earlier msvc newer bitched about using any of the other print types but msvc2012 seems to have taken a new approach (%p also Works in msvc2010 but i havent tried in earlier versions yet).

Kinda hope clang catches up and will be supported by C::B its error checking is a revelation compared to gcc's but speedwise it still lacks some compared and it has no own standard library yet that im aware of so it uses gcc's.

I've had better luck at locating good printf tricks in recent times like printf ("%-20.20s", fixed_length_printing_string);

Or %x, even %c
