Can someone please explain the purpose of a logging library (woof, log4j, etc)? There must be something beyond writing text to an external file, possibly with different error levels, that I'm missing. This is a serious question. I trul

Just make sure you get the latest Ghidra update with the log4j issue addressed :)

Immediate action! Some person actually told me that Florida would be underwater in less than ten years now (I guess it kind of already is with all the hurricanes). Eagerly awaiting the excuses when that time passes us all by. Does this docu

YO. I measured it myself just to be sure and since you were such a dickhead. (Copying and pasting the output from console) With exceptions: Parsing took on average 135 us With error codes: Parsing took on average 0 us Maybe the dude forgot

I'm not asking to test on any system EXCEPT THEIR OWN. Did they test the performance of not? If not, fine. That's all I was asking. It's not a huge ask either unless they don't give a rat's ass about performance. Wh

I'm guessing the author measured the overall performance and assumed that using error codes, rather than exceptions, is what made the sample code he provided slower. Turns out, the reason it is slower is because, in the case using erro

I was attempting, perhaps poorly, to ask the authors if they measured the performance degradation or not with this change. That way we would have the data you are asking _me_, for some reason, to provide. The onus is not on me to do their w

Not trying to be rude but I don't believe this is a sensible choice if you care about performance (sounds like you were more concerned about missing familiar features and such so this comment may be irrelevant). Just curious if you wer

Homotopy type theory is a mathematical foundation, like set theory, or Martin Lof's type theory. This is different from a proof assistant like Coq or Lean. In fact, Lean has a library which implements part of HoTT (see https:/&#x

I think it is pretty obvious that Mr. Meyers never actually programmed / used C++ himself for any real projects. That he would abandon the language after only 2.5 years of nonuse makes sense to me.

You are right. That is not the same study. Thanks for pointing that out.

I think using SAL annotations along with the /analyze flag in MSVC is much less obtrusive then this solution and allows programmers to annotate portions of their code without having to learn / rewrite in an entirely new dialect of

Performance should be listed on there too. Without it, none of the other features matter to me. If I type a character I would like, ideally, 0 ms lag. That has to be a starting point. THEN, you can add the additional layers of niceness (whi

Maybe I'm missing something but it doesn't look like memory allocation was carefully considered in this library. For example, there are no custom allocators?
