No need to drop to his level!

Your right, but think about it. If someone reads my spelling error
chances are every time they see "Rodster" they will be thinking....
another name.

But it was beneath me and for that I feel bad...

Mmm, it's all down to comic timing ;-)  I'm happy my one and only
*plonk* raised a smile!

Cheers!

The least you could do is come up with your own shit and stop
ripping me off.

Hey ever hear of a "Plonk *** Slap" for the Plonk ***?

Which is going to be a problem. VC isn't terribly good at heap management and
though it may not technically leak as such, (ie when you close the program and
provided that you have freed up all your resources there will be no reportable
leak), the heapsize will gradually grow as you allocate and free memory. To get
around this you either have to write your own malloc or new or use a 3rd party
heap manager like SmartHeap.

There's nothing about COM that requires the use of any particular language. COM
(component object model) is purely a specification for a dynamically loaded
object model. COM actually differs quite radically from the object model in C++
in many ways eg in its support for inheritance. There is nothing to prevent you
interfacing to COM through assembly code. I'm fairly confident that TOCA2 uses a
lot of assembly code and that definitely uses DX6. I would imagine that many
even most real time games would optimise key areas of code in assembler. There's
no point writing menu screens and the like in assembler (a maintenance
nightmare) but key calculations around the central engine may well be written in
inline assembly code to up the processing rates, minimise memory usage, reduce
cache misses etc etc.

Hmm. Quite possibly. It's been a while since I used Borland C++, since we, like
good sheep everywhere, use MSVC, but when I last used Borland C++ it had the
legs on Visual C++ in many key areas. I hate that Microsoft can rewrite the spec
of C++ and ***y well get away with it. I gather that Watcom C++ is pretty good
as well.
