Variable name starting with '_' are mostly used by compiler developers, and system libraries, Indicating the special meaning or importance of that variable.

You can use it,but it creates other impression.
Better you use 'iPort'. It is much more readable.

Does it mean "(sizeof(int))* (p)" or "sizeof( (int)(*p) )" ? According to my analysis, operator sizeof, (type) and * have the same precedence, and they combine from right to left. Then this expression should equal to "sizeof( (int)(*p) )", but the compiler does NOT think so. Why? Can anyone help me? Thanks. Best regards. Roy

I am makeing a Multicast server client setup and was wondering what the difference is between Socket.Connect, and Socket.Bind. It may be a stupid question, but I was just curious. Because I tried a test, and I can't bind two sockets to the same port/ip but I can connect with one socket, and bind with another to the same ip/port. Thanks

I currently get asked about my usage of "auto". What is it for? The keyword is clearly superflous here. In contrast to the huge majority of C/C++ developers I write definitions very explicitly like that: int main(char argc, char *argv, char *env) { try { auto Exception mainException(1); mainException.setErrNo(42);

These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
