Re: memset at the end of functions

Which reminds me of this: http://nakedsecurity.sophos.com/2013/02/18/can-freezing-and-android-device-crack-its-keys/ Damn, that's a good article!

Re: memset at the end of functions

I'm not sure whether there is a flag or not that you can pass to GCC (surely a lower optimization mode will get rid of that, but that probably isn't really a good way to avoid it). It is a legitimate optimization. In the abstract machine, all expressions are evaluated as specified by the semantics. ...

Re: Please help a brother out!

For the record: This "charity" has nothing to do with ES. We have never and will never ask for your charity. We made one Youtube video asking for contributions for a CAMERA , but that was to provide you with HD entertainment, not to feed us. The things on Marcel's list have nothing to do w...

Re: Scripting Language development

Lots of these huge, in-depth topics like this in our Programming Discussion forum get indexed on Google... Some curious sap from the future may be searching for how to do this... Your source code may help him on his journey!

Re: OpenGL help needed - Web Browser from scratch

This is an insanely ambitious undertaking... I wish you luck! I have tried using glOrtho(0,Width,Height,0,0,1); but did'nt work at all as well as a few other things that I found online. That is how you do it. As qp mentioned, you are setting it up correctly, but then you're loading an identity matri...

Re: Playstation 4 Thoughts?

Wow. I was just expecting "oh look, more polygons."

I thought Sony did an excellent job. The "innovation" jump from PS3 to PS4 is way bigger than PS2 to PS3...

Honestly, if I were Microsoft, I would have been shitting my pants after that press release.

Re: c++ grandmaster certification

Not like any of them are going to compete with GCC. Or Clang in particular. which was both designed so it would be useful for building C++ tools, and is under a BSD license. Very true, but I can actually see a scenario where this would greatly benefit them. Imagine you're a silicon vendor who just ...

Oh shit, I completely missed that somehow! So tell me if I'm understanding your layering correctly. From back to front: 1) background image 2) background tiles ontop of the background image for animating certain regions of the background 3) main layer the player interacts with 4) foreground layer f...
