i want the equivalent of c#'s "using(butt) {}" in c am i a monster if i implement this with a preprocessor macro like
#define USING_BUTTS(X) prepare_butt(); X ; release_butt();

and then later in my code be all like
USING_BUTTS
(
poorly_written_code;
)

why, just so you don't forget to release_butt()?

it still won't work if you control flow out of it, which is the main reason to use it in C#

its predominantly so i dont forget to release butt but its still not perfect because its not impossible for an interrupt to fire during the butt holding situation altho i could bake in a global interrupt disable but uauauaghugh im gonna keep just writing it all out and occasionally forgetting to release butt and then wonder why nothing works for a few hours thatll just be simpler

I wrote this, there must be something better?

Java code:

private class FlaggedHandle {
	private Handle handle;
	private boolean flag;

	public FlaggedHandle (Handle handle) {
		this.handle = handle;
		this.flag = false;
	}

	public Handle getHandle() {
		return this.handle;
	}

	public boolean isFlagged() {
		return this.flag;
	}

	public void setFlag() {
		this.flag = true;
	}
}

heres the laziest way

Java code:


public class FlaggedHandle extends Handle
{
	private boolean flag;

	public FlaggedHandle()
	{
		this(false);
	}
	

	public FlaggedHandle(boolean flagged)
	{
		super();
		this.flag=flagged;
	}

	public boolean IsFlagged()
	{
		rtuen this.flag;
	}
}

re: flagged handle thing. if you cant alter Handle extending it is probably the best way to go if you want your flagged handle to be usable anywhere normal handle is used. if you can modify handle you have more options depending on what the flag means

keep in mind that butt preparation varies greatly depending on which part of the south you're in. some prefer a dry rub. in north carolina, you might expect a lot of vinegar. and well, if you've ever had carnitas, you'll know just how crazy butts can get!!1

modern c style is to use as many gcc-isms as possible and if users complain about the difficulty when porting tell them to use linux

if you've got programming skills and are not getting responses, consider redoing your resume and asking knowledgeable computer people, maybe even here, for help

yeah i offered up my resume in cjs the other day and got good responses from it. primarily, "more skills, at the top". id previously only given off stuff id done a decent amount of work on, but apparently the vogue for a graduate programmer is to list off as many libraries and tools as can fit on the page

i'm also so loving bad at doing programming questions on the spot jesus

it's like all my critical thinking skills go out the window

i recently got the 'do a tic tac toe solver' questions which i've seen a bunch but i've just ignored because it's so easy but when i was actually sitting there programming i took forever
