What a Funny Goup! I Asked a Question About Boost (C++ Filesystem Interface) & All I Got Is: My Question Is Irrelevant!

I think that everyone who told me that my question is irrelevant,
in particular Mr. David White,
is being absolutely ridiculous. Obviously, most of you up here
behave like the owners of the C++ language. A C++ interface
installation IS ABOUT THE C++ LANGUAGE! The language
does not possess the ability to handle even simple file directory
manipulation.
Those wise people that created it did not take care of it. So, BOOST
is a portable interface that contains a FILESYSTEM for handling
files and directories in the C++ LANGUAGE!
Now, where are you coming from telling me that a question about the
installation of such an important interface does not belong to this
group? Where did you learn logic? In a mental institution?
Also, you are wasting a lot of bandwidth with your childish responses
about relevance or irrelevance. Do you tell CNN to stop bothering you
with its commercials every 3 minutes? Sure you do, pseudo-elitists!
Either answer the question I posed up here, or MOVE ON TO THE NEXT
MESSAGE! You are flooding the newsgroup with trivial and unnecessary
messages. YOU do that, not me!

Oh, really? So, this your message qualifies as necessary and
non-trivial? And if you are not told that your posting about
a product installation is irrelevant in a non-product newsgroup,
how would you know to stop posting irrelevant messages? Where
did _you_ learn logic?


Victor,

You continue using bandwidth with unnecessary messages.
Obviously, you do not know the answer to my question.
So, stop feeling compelled to respond. You just don't know
the answer. Isn't that enough for you?


Keep up with that attitude and you're less likely to get help later if you
post a question that is on topic in the group.

You were offered advice ("look somewhere else, because this isn't the
place to get your question answered") and start complaining when it wasn't
the answer you wanted.

And your post was the one that was unnessesary,
because if you had done your homework (reading the faq) before posting you
would have known wou'd get no answer.
If you go into a grocery store to buy a hammer, and they tell you to go to
the hardware store, do you complain?

Atleast it appears that you caps-lock keys has become unstuck.
regards
NPV


Here is another one that definitely wants me to know that he does not
know the answer to my question.
thank you for nothing NVP.

Please get it into your head: This is a newsgroup for Standard C++.
Yes standard C++ lack[1] some things and that is why there are lots and
lots of packages/libraries like boost. Questions regarding Boost is OT
here and so is questions about wxWindows, ACE, dbconnect, ptypes,
crypto++, botan, V, Fox, GTK, FLTK, Boehm and so on. If this group
should answer ALL C++ related question, there would be 1000 post pr day.
So please understand that boost is OT!

Now, I think it is about time we stop feeding the troll.....

You are funny !
Since you don't know the answer to my question, why don't you
just move on to the next message?


How do you know that I don't know the answer? I'm pretty sure
that most of the regulars could help you. But not in this group.
Is it absolutely necessary
for you to send me messages that amount to nothing?


They might actually teach you something :-)
In any case, give my best regards to ... the sensible Austrians.


Thank you. I will :-)


Hahahaha! They can help me, but not in this goup? Hahahaha!
You made me laugh! Let's go to the salami.cheese.c pp group to
get help! Hahahaha!

You're welcome.

You are correct I do not know the answer to you question, but if I did I
wouldn't give it to you.

You have just confirmed that you care nothing for what the people in this
group thinks is acceptable to post.

You post a question and complain loudly when people tell you how to get an
answer. If you decide to follow that advice I suggest you adjust your
attitude before you ask the boost people for help, unless you want them to
ignore your request for help.
I wouldn't be surprised if there are people that read this group AND the
boost mailinglist that will choose not to help you if you should choose to
ask your question in the appropriate forum.

Thank you, NVP. You keep confirming my original impression
of you: huge contributions of nothingness.

Well he may have been silently plonked without us knowing, but I won't
plonk him yet, the thread is kind of amusing.

But I've given up on educating him.

You know perseus to begin with I actually almost sympathised with you....
now it's just plain obvious that you are an obsessive wanker with nothing to
do with your time other than try to tell other people how ignorant they are.

If the people here are so ignorant and irrelevant as you say,
and I am assuming you are comparing these people to yourself,
how come you had to ask the question in the first place?

I mean, you keep complaining that no one will answer your question, yet, you
don't know the answer yourself.

Has that occured to anyone else?

Add your funny or surprising Python error messages to this thread. A requirement is that you should also show (minimal) code that produces the message. Put the code below, so people can think about how to generate the message first, a little puzzle if you like. Perhaps this will even be a useful thread, to brighten the life of the brave people doing the hard work of providing us with error messages.

Hi, What's the point of a signed char? As I see it a char represents a character (not an integer, use an int type e.g. short int if you want an 8 bit number, or one of the new types, uint8 I think). I don't know of any character sets that use negatives, e.g. 65 is 'A' and -65 is 'a'?!? I'm sure I'm missing something, any ideas?
