Kick ass compiler!






I saw this demo done at WWDC on how to turn off warnings, only when truly warranted, while compiling with clang:

#if defined (__clang__)
    #pragma clang diagnostic push
    #pragma clang diagnostic ignored "-Wunused-value"
#endif // defined __clang__

void ImAUselessLittleFunction ( int pleaseUseMe )
{
    pleaseUseMe; // Nope, you are not going to be used
}
#if defined (__clang__)
    #pragma clang diagnostic pop
#endif // defined __clang__



I thought this should be shared with you… You’re welcome :)

I had to install Windows 7 on my test mac-mini computer and was halted by the “Boot Camp x64 is unsupported on this computer model” message.

Thanks to Michael Anastasiou , things are now working as they should.

Ah-ha! I found this nice little feature in the “Command Prompt” in Windows 7: hit the F7 key and you get a window with a history of commands you typed into the window.

Nifty!

Last week I was fortunate to attend the GoingNative 2012 seminar hosted at Microsoft’s Redmond campus.

Bjarne Stroustrup, Herb Sutter, Andrei Alexandrescu, Stephan T. Lavavej, Chandler Carruth, Hans Boehm, and Andrew Sutton gave presentations at this seminar. If you don’t know who they are, you can easily look them up since they are all very important people in the computing world.

Videos for the seminar are available online (thanks Herb!): http://herbsutter.com
