flowerrobot Posted June 6, 2009 Posted June 6, 2009 Indeed, But what is the point of the point, sure it points at the location of the variable, but so what?, Isnt that the hole point of calling a variable? Quote
wannabe Posted June 6, 2009 Posted June 6, 2009 I've just ordered my first C++ book. Although I'm having some fun with WPF at the moment. Hopefully this thread will sway me to parallel the path you guys are taking and avert myself from my C#/.NET pursuits. Was the general feeling to go with Visual Studio (Visual C++) in the end? Quote
SEANT Posted June 6, 2009 Posted June 6, 2009 I don’t know that studying one requires abandoning the other. As a matter of fact I think a good handle on both managed and un-managed coding practices creates the best opportunity. If all aspects of “optimization” are considered then the productivity of the programmer and ease of code maintenance should play a part. If you’re familiar with Visual Studio, I’ve never heard a compelling reason to switch. Quote
orange Posted November 11, 2011 Posted November 11, 2011 what happened to this tutorial? all I see is a bunch of offtopic 'noise' in this thread.. has anyone managed to compile arx in anything else than VisualStudio? like Dev-C++ ? Quote
flowerrobot Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 As Seant said above, There is good reason not to use visual studio, integrated debugging, Intelli sence and a large user base and support, Make it the best to use, even if its only the free express version. If you looking at getting into c++, I should suggest abandoning, And retarget .Net in either c# or Vb language. If you would like to use c++ in the future go C# as all the syntax's are the same. Autodesk have spent alot of effort in adding managed code (.net) access to open most functions, some is still missing but not much, But it allows so much more freedom, it can run on any OS (32 or 64bit) and all cad platforms (2007,2011,2012). It also means a learning curve of 1-2weeks compared to a least 1-2+ months. Quote
