Getting sample code to work from a 'Wrox' book...

RAB

Hello,

I downloaded the VB samples from the 'Wrox book' website at the
following address
http://www.wrox.com/WileyCDA/WroxTit...load_code.html

I installed MSDE 2000

I put the downloaded folder in my ...wwwroot folder and did the setup

In the setup log I get the following:

5/19/2006 10:36:58 PM: [Fail] : Failure checking for existence of
database 'UserList' : SQL Server does not exist or access denied.

Indestructible pointer: Sample code for feedback

by: David Coppit | last post by:

Hi all, Most smart pointers remove the need to call delete. What I want is a pointer that turns delete into a no-op for "unauthorized" clients. The reason is that I'm generating code from pre-existing legacy code that assumes the caller deletes the pointer. However, I want to reduce memory copies for the case where there are multiple clients fetching a pointer to the same memory.
