    How to take command-line input and verify that it is an int?

    Hi all,

    I have a small part of my program that I would like to revise. The problem is that if someone enters text, it just gets converted to 1 as an int. I would like to print an error message and ask them for an int again.

    Thanks in advance,
    crab

    Code:
    {    
     int in;
     cout << endl << "Please input an integer: ";
     cin >> in;
    ...

      Control not rendering if added during aspx page load call

      I am working on a message system that will let out programmers easily output a message to any user. It works fine, unless the message is requested inside of a page_load on an aspx page. Then, it does not render at all.



      The code does step through, and the control is added - I believe it might be being added to late in the page lifecycle to get rendered. I can't seem to find any way to tell .NET to render that control,...

        So a theory question for all you PHP Guru's out there

        So I am building a web service that generates charts from a large amount of data. The problem I am running into is that to generate one chart, there can be up to 5 requests set. The variable preservation was just getting ridiculous.

        So, question is - what is the best solution. I would like to have some sort of global variables, but register globals is turned off (I don't think that actually stops me from using the global keyword,...

          Is there any possible way to speed up a query???

          Hey, I am pretty experienced with mySQL, having made about 20ish websites using. I am looking to speed up a query on the most data intensive site I have done yet. I know basic SQL, but I feel that I need to take it up a level and do something more than just restructure the query here.

          The table structure:
          Code:
          CREATE TABLE `rmaccess` (
  `ip_address` char(15) NOT NULL default '',
  `timestamp` timestamp NOT NULL default

              Anyone see the problem?

              Anyone see the problem with this? Basically I am trying to get this to work, so that I can modify it to say something similar to select *, ABS(DATEDIFF ... ) from ...

              so that I can get 1) all the data and 2) the date diff in 1 query. Any help would be greatly appreciated

                  Thanks a lot! I actually did it a little differently - I am not sure if its maximum effectiveness but it definitely works better. I needed the three columns to be unique together, but I am generating charts of server stats so i normally use the timestamps in my queries. So i did this - any opinions or am i headed in the right direction?
                  Code:
                  [list=1][*]Primary Key on timestamp, helix_[*]Unique Key on ip_address, timestamp, helix_[/list]

                    quieries taking a while - key problem?

                    I am decent at queries, but recently i made a new DB with about 50000+ entries. Queries are taking almost 20+ seconds, and i think it is that i dont have decently structured keys - this is the first time I was the one that created the DB structure. Here is the info that seemed relevant - ANY HELP APPRECIATED

                    There is one 'primary' key - a mix of server, timestamp, and ipaddress

                              what we have set up is a site with a flash player, and the user passes the player some flashvars that indicate the unique name of the video. the flash in turn connects to a local client via one port nad asks for the video data. the client is receiving the request and sending the data,...

                                    in Flash
                                    rather than exporting your "pop up" as a .exe, try exporting as a .swf and in your button actionscript, use the loadmovie command. getURL is designed to work for internet pages. if you really need exe, then create your popup, export as exe and look up autostart so that when the disc is inserted, that exe is automatically run

                                    hope that helps,

                                        if you have audio in your flash, recoding it can save a huge amount of data. other than that, cleverly loading only what is needed is the best way to reduce load time. as for redirecting, assign a variable to the main timeline and use that to play specific actionscript from within other swf's
