stack

I have some code using a variable length array (VLA), which compiles fine in gcc and clang, but does not work with MSVC 2015. class Test { public: Test() { P = 5; } void somemethod() { int array[P]; // do something with the array } private: int P; } There seem to be two solutions in the code: using alloca() , taking the risks of alloca in account by making absolutely sure not to access elements outside of the array. using a vector member variable (assuming that the overhead between vector and c array is not the limiting factor as long as P is constant after construction of the object) The

Is there an easy way or another workaround to delete the backstack in Android pre Honeycomb(before API level 11)? People suggest using the FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP in conjunction with FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK when starting a new activity, but this does only delete the stack on top of my current position, not the stack under my position. It should not be that hard to start from a fresh task. Some ideas around this? I can not use FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK because I need to support those versions beneath api level 11. Is there an equivalent to FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TASK that clears the whole navigation

Closed. This question is off-topic . It is not currently accepting answers. Want to improve this question? Update the question so it's on-topic for Stack Overflow. Closed 6 years ago . I'm pretty stuck in finding a proper solution for a given problem, been looking for some ideas over the internet. Wasn't be able to find any. Problem is: writing a program that takes from the standard input an expression without left parentheses and prints the equivalent infix expression with the parentheses inserted. Given expression: 1 + 2) * 3 - 4)* 5 - 6))) Output: ((1 + 2) * ((3 - 4) * (5 - 6))) What can be

I recently wasted about half an hour tracking down this odd behavior in NSLog(...): NSString *text = @"abc"; long long num = 123; NSLog(@"num=%lld, text=%@",num,text); //(A) NSLog(@"num=%d, text=%@",num,text); //(B) Line (A) prints the expected "num=123, text=abc", but line (B) prints "num=123, text= (null) ". Obviously, printing a long long with %d is a mistake, but can someone explain why it would cause text to be printed as null? You just messed up memory alignment on your stack. I assume than you use newest Apple product with x86 processor. Taking these assumptions into account your stack
