01:01:23 Varthall hi
01:01:39 number6 Hi
01:21:13   <-- bones has quit (Quit: This computer has gone to sleep)
01:22:37 ssolie hi Varthall
01:26:28 Varthall hi ssolie
01:26:51 Varthall thanks for your answer on my compiling problems
01:27:46 Varthall now I'm busy preparing stuff for a small fair I'll attend tomorrow
01:28:11 Varthall but I'll have some time I'll check again that source
01:36:05 ssolie good stuff
01:36:52 Varthall btw how does a class declaration look like?
01:37:05 ssolie class { int x; }
01:37:12 ssolie class X { int x; }
01:37:16 ssolie forgot the name :)
01:37:20 Varthall ok
01:37:24 ssolie format class declaration would be "class X;"
01:37:34 ssolie note the missing { blah }
01:37:35 Varthall isn't that hard then ^^
01:37:39 Varthall ep
01:37:41 Varthall yep
01:38:13 Varthall are both format and normal class declarations required?
01:38:25 ssolie man, can't type.. that is a "forward class declaration" above
01:38:42 ssolie forward class declarations are always optional
01:39:07 ssolie they are used to avoid #include'ing files
01:39:28 ssolie in C++, you don't need the class declaration if you are only using it by reference or pointer for example
01:39:56 Varthall ok
01:40:09 ssolie in general, don't put any code in a header file either
01:40:18 Varthall heh
01:40:34 ssolie modern compilers are smart enough to inline, etc. for you
01:40:41 Varthall it seems that the original coder didn't follow your last advice ^^
01:40:49 ssolie might be old code
01:41:03 Varthall 2001
01:41:11 ssolie not that old..
01:41:20 Varthall indeed ^^
01:41:38 ssolie oh well, advice in C++ change all the time :)
01:41:51 Varthall hehe really?
01:42:02 Varthall btw the port I'm doing is this:
01:44:14 Varthall http://images.google.com/images?q=sdmkun&sourceid=mozilla-search&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&percentage_served=100&sa=N&tab=wi
01:44:23 Varthall strange stuff, but I like it
01:44:32 Varthall it's a shoot'em up trainer
01:45:29 ssolie weird stuff ;-)
01:46:59 Varthall as only japanese coders can do :)

09:43:01 watertonian 2 bots in here?
09:50:44 impulse_ 2 bots better than one :p
09:50:58 watertonian unless you're in yahoo
09:51:01 watertonian lol
09:51:30 watertonian anyway, you wouldn't know much about SMBFS would you?
09:52:35 impulse_ nope
09:52:50 impulse_ dunno much about filesystems in general actually
09:52:51 watertonian ok. thx anyway,though
09:53:07 watertonian ah.
09:53:11 watertonian just a networking thing.
09:53:36 watertonian mounts an amiga volume from a SAMBA (windows) shared directory
09:53:39 impulse_ ohh smb as in samba then?
09:53:44 watertonian yup
09:54:27 watertonian having trouble with the script I have for it.
09:55:34 watertonian sometimes things mount, sometimes they don't, sometimes I get the blinking red box of death
09:55:46 impulse_ i am looking for a cdtv, but ppl still offer/ask to much for it
09:56:00 watertonian they are pretty rare.
09:56:30 impulse_ yeah, but they look lovely :-)
09:56:40 watertonian true true
09:57:11 watertonian though I'm engaging in a project concerning an empty laptop case, an a600, and a screwdriver.
09:57:59 impulse_ gonna try to mount an amiga 600 in a laptop case?
09:58:05 watertonian yup
09:58:18 watertonian have a pretty good idea of what I need so far.
09:58:34 watertonian though not sure if graffiti will scandouble
09:59:22 watertonian or if the little yellow joystick thingy on the keyboard will work with a ps2/atari adapter
09:59:57 impulse_ and what about the screen?
10:00:10 watertonian svga
10:00:26 watertonian so I either need a scandoubler, or deal with 4 color screenmodes.
10:03:40 impulse_ and how about the keyboard?
10:05:33 watertonian not sure

11:31:33 zerohero anyone awake?
11:31:46 zerohero does os4 have floppy drivers?
11:31:53 zerohero ie does the floppy work on os4?
11:36:32 racs zerohero: yes
11:36:56 racs zerohero: altough I don't know if it was released or not already
11:37:02 zerohero racs: ok
11:38:04 zerohero racs: pc floppys only i guess?
11:38:11 zerohero 1.44 mb?
11:40:35 racs zerohero: yep
11:40:47 racs zerohero: the controller is crippled :P
11:40:57 zerohero racs: ok, thanks
11:41:10 zerohero i haven't used floppys for years now :)
11:41:20 racs zerohero: but as I remember you could format the floppy to any format you like, eg. FFS
11:41:21 zerohero not sure what all the fuss is about
11:41:28 zerohero racs: ah, cool
11:42:17 racs zerohero: as long as you don't need it to read on PC ;)
11:42:27 zerohero hehe
11:42:54 zerohero i'm not sure why we have floppy support in the first place :)
11:43:35 racs zerohero: me neither, who would use shaky floppies instead of USB Pens?
11:43:53 zerohero racs: no idea
11:44:14 zerohero racs: but i don't have usb either, i use my own private server instead :)
11:44:33 racs zerohero: you don't have USB?
11:44:48 zerohero i have usb, no usb pen tho :)
11:45:17 racs zerohero: don't tell me it would be expensive ;)
11:46:14 zerohero racs: i haven't needed it before, but when we did need it we couldn't afford it. both my wife and i are students now, we're trying to limit the amount of student loans
11:47:02 racs zerohero: aw, come on! you won't need a gig-sized :)
11:47:03 zerohero but it's not a big problem since i can put everything on the server and reach it anywhere anyway
11:47:17 racs zerohero: good for you then
11:47:30 zerohero racs: nah, we'll see, probably going to buy one soon
11:47:55   <-- Ami603[AW] has quit (Quit: AmigaOS4, teh Real thing!)
11:49:24 racs zerohero: you can get a 32 Mb sized for free, I guess
11:49:33 zerohero hehe
11:49:43 zerohero racs: minimum is 128mb
11:49:49 zerohero i won't go below that :)
11:52:14 zerohero but i'll probably buy a mp3 player instead
11:52:21 racs zerohero: if you would be sooo picky, then it would cost about 13 EUR... ;)
11:52:35 zerohero i know, i know :)
11:52:47 impulse_ the ms one?
11:52:59 racs impulse_: ms?
11:53:04 impulse_ microsoft
11:53:09 racs impulse_: huh?
11:53:18 impulse_ they kinda gave away free usb sticks
11:53:22 impulse_ of 32mb
11:53:29 impulse_ thought you meant that
11:53:30 racs impulse_: not only them, many HW companies
11:53:43 impulse_ such as?
11:53:45 racs you cannot sell a 32 Mb pen anymore :)
11:54:05 racs Canon bundled these for its printers
11:54:07 racs eg
11:54:12 impulse_ ahh
11:54:28 impulse_ but thats only party free
11:54:31 racs but I could get them on expos too, with a little multimedia adverts on it
11:54:38 zerohero hehe
11:55:25 racs but I guess if you ask a friend then you can get one for free :)
