T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Apprentice Oladon Tech: Not trying to "do" anything... trying to reason through how a fairly simple program would be handled differently based on normal-order or applicative-order evaluation T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: hmmm....any suggestions for how to get the mapper in cmud to follow rooms on the mapper, to get to zones like Art of Melody, for example? (dance) T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: cmud's mapper is broken T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: how about zmud's? T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: broken, I mean...not sure if I'll have this problem in it. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: CMUD's mapper is NOT broken. I use it quite well. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Kiss my Gritznakka Tech: Maybe you're broken to, and you just don't know it? T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: In fact, my mapper follows me perfectly, changing zones and entering rooms/exits as needed. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: ok, charneus...any suggestions as to how to get cmud's mapper to follow commands other than directions? T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: I've got it following me, just can't get it to manage portals and 'other' exits yet. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Input them in the mapper itself as 'other'. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: You do have to enter it in exactly, though. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: so if it's not broken, then why is the next release supposed to fix the broken mapper? T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: as the 'other' command? T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: For instance, you can't just type 'dan' when the exit for other is 'dance. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Abelinc - It's not 'fixing' a mapper. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Brb. On the phone. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: If you're using the public release, it works perfectly. Zugg just released beta versions, in which the mapper has undergone a rewrite. The betas, there might be issues with them, but that's why they're called Betas. Personally, I have no issues with them at all. Are you using the public release (2.37) or the latest beta (3.03a) ? T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Yhogurk Tech: using the jet "database" engine as a backend for the mapper could be considered broken by design T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Alt. Helpa Charneus smirks. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: 2.37 T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Alt. Helpa Charneus nods. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: You can make custom exits. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: I don't tend to be a beta tester....except for Microsoft O/Ses, where I don't have a choice. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Alt. Helpa Charneus nods. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: and any other O/S, for that matter. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Apprentice Oladon . o O ( Linux ) T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Apprentice Oladon Tech: You have a choice. :P T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: not at work, I don't T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: back to the custom exits.... T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Right. I'm trying to remember the syntax to set them up on the command line. Alternatively, you can just do it in the room properties. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: been trying to do it in the room properties, but it doesn't seem to honor them. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Do you have the map in edit mode? T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: yep T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Ok. Step by step in the room properties: First create the rooms you want linked. I'm assuming you already have them created, though. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: yep T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Take the vnum from the room you're going to link (keeping the mouse over it for a brief second will show it). T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: 537 T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: (not that you care -- just illustrating :) ) T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Good. Now, make sure you're in the room you're going to like 537 to. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Again, I'll assume that you are. :P T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: heh T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: On the exits page/tab, click the white cross in the blue square. It'll bring up new link T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: huh...okay, I was right-clicking and selecting New Link from the pop-up menu. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Alt. Helpa Charneus snickers softly. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: You could do that, too. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: I take it they're not the same? T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: ahh, ok. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: No, they are the same. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: I'm just stating the way I normally do it. :P T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Now, it should display a row starting with the current vnum you're in. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: yep. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Ok. Now, where there are two compasses, select 'other' on the first one. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: wait...maybe not....has the vnum of the destination room. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Yhogurk Tech: syntax for creating custom exits from cmdline is ">enter pool>d" T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Ah, that's right. Thanks, Yhogurk. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: But, continuing on with this demonstration... :P T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Yhogurk Tech: you can also stack commands by separating them with ; T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: After you've selected 'other,' you put the command to go to that room in the 'Name:' box. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: For instance, for 'dance,' you'd put 'dance' in that box. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: what Name box? T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: The one under the compasses. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Yhogurk Tech: tip, put in the command last (after you've selected source and dest exit, one-way, door, etc) T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: I've got Other com, Link Label, and Door Name....ahh, the last one? T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: No, Other com. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Sorry, in 3.03a, it's Name. ;) T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: ok, so, 'dance' is already in that box. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Ok. Then click on the # and enter 537. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: click on the number where? T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Should be next to the white cross/blue square, or over a couple. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Yhogurk Tech: click on the # button near the top-right corner T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Alt. Helpa Charneus nods at Yhogurk. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Thanks. I'm working at it blindly right now. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: gotcha...yep, it's 597 (sorry, mistyped earlier :) ) T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Alt. Helpa Charneus nods. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Now, as a trick... T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: What Yhogurk said about >enter pool>n... T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: You can actually do >dance>s>whatever the exit command is. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: That creates the room to the south with the other command 'dance' and a return command of whatever. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: ....assuming there is a return command, correct? T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Right. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Otherwise, you can just put >dance>s T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Then it creates the room south with the other command dance. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: ok, so, other than executing that command at the command-line, I've got the exit set up. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Now, like I said earlier, you will have to actually type it in full. You can't abbreviate 'other' commands. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Alt. Helpa Charneus nods. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: I have been....it still won't follow. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Typing 'dance' now should move you into that room. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Are you in follow mode? T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: yep. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Alt. Helpa Charneus sits down and thinks deeply. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: trying it one more time.... T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Tyebald falls down laughing. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Make sure you don't have any blank exits, too. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: ok, that sucks....it worked. :P T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: It sucks that it worked? *quirk* T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: don't get me wrong, I'm glad it worked....but I had everything already set up the way you wanted....which means I'm not sure what I did differently. :P T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Alt. Helpa Charneus snickers softly. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: so now I'm stuck in the Land of Permutations. :) but thanks! T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Tyebald trundles off to another 'other' exit room, to practice... T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Try using the >exitcommand>direction syntax. :) T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: It's a lot easier. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: yeah, I'll give that a whirl. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Yhogurk Tech: you can do fairly complicated stuff with the "other com" thing eg in desert prison, i have it auto go and buy pass and give pass to camel man etc T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: excellent, glad to hear it. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: other 'other' exit I'd put in just worked too....maybe I wasn't in Follow mode. *shrug* T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Yhogurk Tech: remember you can also use variables in "other com", eg in talsa i have it wear conadrain/moricand, and then re-equip my normal torso eq which i've stored in a variable T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: cool, thanks. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Doa Tech: ooOoo so i can just call earmoricand in the commands for the portals in talsa for example once i set up the variable? T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: @wearmoricand, yeah T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Doa Tech: ooOoo so i can just call @wearmoricand in the commands for the portals in talsa for example once i set up the variable? T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Alt. Helpa Charneus nods at Doa. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Doa Tech: sweeeeet T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: glad I'm not the only one learning. ;) T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Doa Tech: i was writing in the commands shortening the moricand etc T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: that > command is a lifesaver....well, not in the terry pratchett literary sense, but you get what I mean. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Alt. Helpa Charneus grins evilly. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: I don't suppose there's a shortcut command to set the 'locked' property on a door? T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Not to my knowledge. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Yhogurk Tech: i've never found much use for setting a door to locked, zmud's path finding doesn't take locked doors into account (afaics) and hence will try to walk through them anyway T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Yhogurk: it does. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: But it doesn't know when you have the key and when you don't. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Yhogurk Tech: it does? lemme check :) T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Go to Configuration settings, then strings and doors. It should be the second one down. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Yhogurk Tech: ah, exactly, since mud auto unlock doors anyway (if you have key) then it's pointless letting mapper know whether door is locked or not T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Not necessarily. If you've got the keys for it, and you don't have passdoor, then you can just run through it. It'll automatically unlock the door and open it for you. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Ah, but you mean with the 'open door' command. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Yeah, you could be right on that. :P T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Yhogurk Tech: i think i am :) T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Yhogurk Tech: would be nice if there was a way to get zmud not to try and go thru a locked door T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: There is. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Yhogurk Tech: not by blocking the rooms on either side :) T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Alt. Helpa Charneus snickers softly. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Of course, you could check the 'Only send door command, do not send direction' ;) T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Yhogurk Tech: i suppose a fudge would be to, instead of having a door, insert an extra "do not enter" room, but that would be ugly T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Alt. Helpa Charneus nods. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: okay, next mapper question...how do I get the mapper to recognize both 'normal' rooms, and rooms where the room description is just a title? T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: (such as The Fortress of Knowledge) T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: I use roomtags and the auto-config. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Makes mapping so much easier. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Yhogurk Tech: i hate those rooms without descriptions, i cheat and insert them manually which is extremely tedious for something like aardwolf estates T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: I don't have to manually put anything in. :P T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Creedos Tech: in zmud how do i go about having a trigger not fire if a #VAR is 0 T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Creedos Tech: wanna be abot to turn autohunt on and off T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt.

Helpa Charneus Tech: Credos... that wasn't for you. :P T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Yhogurk Tech: never could get get those tags to work, it captured them ok, but mapper didn't use them T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: It works fine for me. Did you reconfigure with brief 0 on? T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Yhogurk Tech: i always use brief 0 T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Set that as a trigger, make sure tags roomname is on. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Alt. Helpa Charneus Tech: Then reconfigure. It'll capture it properly. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Yhogurk Tech: thanks, when i get bored and want to finish mapping aardwolf estates 2K i'll try that again :) T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Alt. Helpa Charneus nods. T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Yhogurk Tech: i only mapped out just enough to find a site for my manor :) T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tyebald Tech: interesting....I'll try it after next quest....uh, and getting some food. :P T1/r4/2009-01-08.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: Alt.

But I can't seem to figure out some stuff. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Remind Hargreaves Tech: they'll probably help with homework so long as it doesn't include help with a quest T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: I just needed to copy an array's content over to a new array and delete the old one. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: In C. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: And the function template I have to use is int *doubleMe( int a[], int size ).. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Schnapps Tech: So what's the problem exactly? T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: Thing is, inside int *doubleMe I tried to use free(a); after the stuff was copied, etc. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: But for some reason I keep getting segfaults. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: I'm sure I'm just missing something small.. it's almost done, just forgot some important detail :( T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Faulty Bot Elrast Tech: have you assigned memory before attempting to free it? T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: Hmm... no, I thought that might be the problem. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: But how would I otherwise delete a[] if I'd passed it in as an argument? T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: int *doubleMe( int a[], int size ) means the address of a[] goes in, right? T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Faulty Bot Elrast Tech: its a long time ago, but you need to malloc before using free? T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: That is, the address of a[0]. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: OK, so you can only free() what you've malloc()ed T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Schnapps Tech: Yes. There's an issue of scope here also. You're modifying what a[] points to, but you're not modifying a[] itself. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Faulty Bot Elrast Tech: vague vague memories from last century :P T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: How might one dispose of an array that wasn't declared within the function? T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Schnapps Tech: You need to pass in a**, which is the address of the pointer that is the beginning of a[] T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}MIA Xantcha Tech: You're trying to discard an array that was declared outside the function scope from within the funciton? T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}MIA Xantcha Tech: how was the array declared? T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: It has to be declared outside... I put it in main() as int a[] = { 1, 2 };. There is no requirement on how it is to be declared. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: Just that I can only pass in int a[] and I have to "dispose of the old array." T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Not an Imm Erikson Tech: You can't "dispose of" an item on the stack until you exit the frame. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: I thought it would be a simple case of free() but now I ran into this problem. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}MIA Xantcha Tech: Hrm, I must've missed part of the converrsation, one moment while I check backlogs T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: Erikson: I hear you. But I have to 'dispose of' it within the function, or somehow do something that results in its 'disposal'. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Schnapps Tech: We may not have thought of that, Xantcha. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: Schnapps: you mentioned a**? T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Not an Imm Erikson Tech: Then whoever invented the assignment needs to be clearer about what they intend. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: (On most other channels, this would be an obscenity.) :) T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}MIA Xantcha Tech: If you are passing int a[] into the function as a parameter, there is no valid method for deleting a from within the function... it shoul be handled differently T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: Ah. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Not an Imm Erikson Tech: malloc() and free() only have meaning for heap variables. Neither apply at all to the stack. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Tech: MIA Xantcha is agreeing with that Not an Imm Erikson person again... T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Schnapps Tech: Yeah, I was assuming that you had declared the array on the heap using malloc() T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Not an Imm Erikson Tech: And you can't free() something without having it; you'd have to pass in a pointer to the array as aforementioned. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}MIA Xantcha Tech: Because there is no way for your function to know if a[] is statically declared, malloc'd, or allocated in some other way T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Not an Imm Erikson Tech: All that to one side, it's Very Bad Form to blow away memory inside a function like that. That's how you end up with massive bugginess. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: So my best bet would be to leave the free() line in the answer, comment it out, and ask why it doesn't work? :) T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}MIA Xantcha Tech: If you've got "int a[4];" or similar in your main function, you cannot free() (or otherwise de-allocated/dispose) of it until your function terminates T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Not an Imm Erikson Tech: We know why it doesn't work; because it's meaningless :p T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: By the way, couldn't I just assign 0 to all the values in the original array a[] ? T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Not an Imm Erikson Tech: You could, if that's the intended result. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: Which would, in a manner of speaking, 'erase' the existing array. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Faulty Bot Elrast Tech: that's just a change of content in the array though, stricly speaking T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Not an Imm Erikson Tech: It would just be pointless in most situations; wasted cycles. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: Yeah, I know. But since it can't be free()d. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}MIA Xantcha Tech: You could, but any rational definition of dispose is not "zero out"... which makes me think the teacher is misguided, or is trying to trick you T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Not an Imm Erikson Tech: (but then, it's homework. It's not supposed to make any sense.) T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Faulty Bot Elrast Tech: bonus points for saying "trick question!!" T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: Erikson: *snort* ... Xantcha: I agree, I will leave it incomplete and ask the lecturer. :) T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: Thanks guys ... T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}MIA Xantcha Tech: I've had teachers attempt that before... give you a problem that makes you jump to a wrong conclusion, then they get to be all condescending telling you why you're wrong T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Dispel Majic Tech: asking whomever assigned it wtf they meant is probably a good idea :P T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: Nah this guy's new (to this module) and he seems pretty nice.. so I'm just going to call him out casually on this one. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: Apparently people have submitted solutions 2 hours after the assignment was posted online.. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: So they've managed to satisfy themselves about it somehow... or there's something I'm missing. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Remind Hargreaves Tech: You're in competition with yourself ultimately not them T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: I know, I just want to know how they did it, if they did. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Dispel Majic Tech: A lot of times, the first in either took the course before or turned in a WAG :P T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: Incidentally, I'm a bit stuck as to a choice of IDE on Linux. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: I prefer to use vim/gcc the old way, but I'm lost when it comes to debugging. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Not an Imm Erikson Tech: Considering the comprehension of presented problems, understanding of the semantics of the language, and results of the combination of the two I've seen from _professional_ programmers...

T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: How do you debug then, Erikson, gdb? T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Not an Imm Erikson Tech: Sometimes. Often just scattering some debugging prints around is enough to find the problem. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: Menace: codeblocks I tried... not sure what I did wrong, but I couldn't build the code, something about /bin/Debug, etc. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: Yeah... either if it's a simple program or you know enough to consider it a simple program. T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Global Menace Tech: so your using gnome? T1/r4/2009-01-31.txt.gz:{chan ch=tech}Trurien Tech: Yeah... Ubuntu in a VM. This class is for Operating Systems, so the C bit is incidental, it's probably the memory handling that's more important.
