Hi folks,
Apologies - am having a bit of a "senior moment"...
Is there a way to convert a string containing escaped characters into a
verbatim string literal?
I.e. converting something like
"This string contains \"double quotes\" and \'single quotes\'"
into
@"This string contains "double quotes" and 'single quotes'"
I had thought that Regex.Unescape did this, but it's not working for me this
morning...
Any assistance gratefully received.

Even in verbatim string literals, double quotes are not escaped. Within
verbatim strings, you need to escape double quotes with double quotes.
e.g.,
string test = @"abc""def";

When applied to a string literal, is the sizeof operator supposed to return the size of the string
(including nul), or the size of a pointer?
For example, assuming a char is 1 byte and a char * is 4 bytes, should the following yield 4, 5, of
something else? (And, if something else, what determines the result?)
char x = "abcd";
printf( "%d\n", sizeof( x ) );

Can you / are you supposed to free() string literals which are no longer
needed?
In my case I've menu construction code that looks like this:
menu_items = list_new();
list_add(menu_items, "Item 1");
list_add(menu_items, "Item 2");
list_add(menu_items, "Item 3");
menu_create(menu_items, false)

Hi,
I'm having a tricky problem where I want to accept a regular expression
pattern from user input but can't get teh escape characters to be prcoessed
correctly. If I take the same pattern and declare it in code with a
preceeding @ character it works fine.
To get the pattern to work from teh suer all \ have to be escaped, e.g.
instead of \d a user would have to enter \\d.

Hi,
I'm not yet very confident in my use of standard terminology, so
please be kind if I'm mis-calling something, I will do my best no to
make it again once pointed out.
I'm wondering what is the lifetime or a compile-time string constant,
I think that is what is called the storage duration of a string
litteral.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
