Would you help me with some Open GL questions, Leigh?
 
I am working on an Open GL project, and you have solved one of the
issues I have in my project.
 
I could benefit from your superior coding knowledge.

Only if you renounce Christian fucktardary and stop spamming this newsgroup with same.

Do you realize that you spam this newsgroup with your obscene version of
atheism? How do you think the people here feel about you writing
consistently with such vulgarity?
 
I will say this: I love you, Leigh. Jesus loves you. You are loved.

I'm sorry if it came across that way. It was meant to
be just a question.

Given the context, I don't believe you.

Your recent comments strike me as being rude and insulting. Was
it your intention to be rude and insulting? (That is not meant
as a rhetorical question - I'm asking because I would like to
hear your answer.)

I assume you are being sarcastic.
 
I didn't include the statement that you might have missed
something because I wasn't responding to that part of your
posting. Besides, a statement that one may have missed something
seems rather superfluous, so including it seems redundant. I
didn't take it out to make you look dumb; I took it out because
it wasn't relevant to what I was saying, which is about where
to look to find the information desired. I'm sorry if it came
across as insulting, that was not my intention.

The people who have done the editing/writing/formatting for the
C++ standard have made a lot of decisions that make it harder to
read than it could be. One of those decisions is to use fonts
that are too small for the medium in which they appear. When I
read the C++ standard, I often crank up the magnification a step
or two to help with this problem. Another trick I use: when
looking at a particular page I (try to) always read the footnotes
on the page whether or not they look relevant to the passage I
was looking for. In the C++ standard in particular the side
material often contains useful information that is hard to find
in the main text, so "looking sideways" as it were in many cases
turns up something helpful or useful, even if not always directly
related to what is being sought at the moment.

This is not any sort of a cheat what-so-ever it is a direct refutation
of the Peter Linz halting problem undecidability proof:
 
void H_Hat(u32 P)
{
u32 Input_Halts = H(P, P);
if (Input_Halts)
HERE: goto HERE;
else
HALT
}
 
int main()
{
Input_Halts = H((u32)H_Hat, (u32)H_Hat);
Output("H_Hat(H_Hat) Halts =", Input_Halts);
HALT;
}

Can you post brief example of what you want to do and why
non-member operators can not help?

Because the operators are symmetrical if you define them externally.
Defined internally only the right part can be a non-descendant which
is converted to the proper type.

Yes. There are no placement new that you originally asked about
so problem solved?
 
You seem to indent some lines with tabs and some lines with
spaces. That sometimes makes code to look odd in some tools
but if you do not use such tools then it does not matter.
