1/14    Why is NULL defined to be "0" in C++ instead of "((void *) 0)" like in
        C?  I have some overloaded functtions where one takes an integer
        parameter and the other a pointer parameter.  When I call it with
        "NULL", the compiler matches it with the integer version instead of
        the pointer version which is a problem.  Other funny effect is that
        sizeof(NULL) is different from sizeof(myPtr).  Thanks.

7/20    For those who care btw, it looks like eclipse is now A Standard Tool
        at UCB ugrad cs, probably replaced emacs.  Furthermore, people get
        angry at seeing Makefiles, (since eclispe takes care of that).  I
        guess it's just a sign of the times.
        \_ The more people at my work use eclipse the less the code is
           managable in emacs.  I'm not sure which application's fault

2/15    Technical question:  we have a memory leak in our C code, we think,
        but it's not the sort of memory leak where the memory's unreferenced.
        What we'd like to do is sort of a poor-man's profile, we want
        to know who calls our memory allocator "New"...  Sorta like a stack
        trace.  Using an actual profiler is sort of difficult 'cause it's
        a parallel application.  Thanks,  --peterm

12/14   If I have a C function like this
        void foo(void) {
          static const char unused1[] = "one";
          const char * const unused2 = "two";
          ...... some code ......
          return;

9/23    Is the a C++ equivelent to the C realloc function?
        \_ realloc(). But seriously, maybe you want an STL container
           that automatically grows.
           \_ Not in this case.  I just need to grow a char array
              automatically myself.   (For speed reasons) Really, It's a
              very isolated place in the code, and I'll probably just end

8/10    C question.  Is there anything wrong with the following?
        const my_struct_t **pp;
        pp = malloc(sizeof(my_struct_t *));
        pp = realloc(pp, sizeof (my_struct_t *) * 2);
        "gcc -Wall" doesn't complain.  But the M$ compiler (cl.exe) complains
        about the realloc line:

5/28    I just found out that bison inserts these lines of code
                #ifndef __cplusplus
                #ifndef __STDC__
                #define const

4/13    How much C++/C knowledge do recent Berkeley CS/EECS grad have?
        \_ Class CSGrad inherits FromDaddy and does not implement C++Knowledge
           very well.
           \_ funny.  just the rich and poor as always.  the middle class can't
              afford education.
        \_ They know how to deal with pointers and addresses, malloc and free.

12/8    c++ question, how do I overload << in my class so it will handle
        endl? ie: myclass << "some string" << endl
        I know how to do the "some string" part:
                myclass & operator << (const char * s);
        what about endl?
        Thanks!!

12/4    Is there any reason to worry about mixing the usage of malloc and new?
        Obviously, you can't delete() malloc'd memory (and vv), but aside from
        that, will bad things happen?  Oh, I should note that this is for a C
        library that is used by C++ -- a coworker suggested wrapping my memory
        allocations (and deletions) with
        #ifdef __cplusplus

9/10    Stupid question: how do I reference a C callback?
        int mycompare(void const *a, void const *b) { ... }
        qsort(msg, sizeof(Msg), numMsgs, mycompare);
        I get
        "Type error in argument 4 to `qsort'; calling convention mismatch."
