Compile and link time.

AP
Hi,
Does anyone have suggestions (maybe options etc) as to how
I could improve my compile and link time in VC7.1. I'm
seeing a pretty bad deterioration from VC6.
BTW, I use pre-compiled headers.

Thanks in advance.

What delta are you seeing from 6.0? Somewhere in the region of 20-30% is in
the expected range. Substantially beyond that (say half the throughput), I
would like to see what is up specifically.

If you look at perfmon or task manager, are you close to 100% CPU bound?

Hi, everyone, I'm working on a software project that contains some C++ code that I would like to be common to two separate projects. Ideally, I'd like to have each of these separate projects conditionally compile and link the common code per environment configuration. However, I feel that the very nature of this common code (that it is mutually compile- and link-time dependent with the software projects) precludes this type of setup. ...

I have hard time to understand run-time environment. Let assume that I have a program that has a simple variable alpha. When this variable is statically allocated, the compiler can use the absolute address of alpha to access to it. What confuses me is that when the variable is dynamically allocated, how does the compiler implement it? We know the address of the variable until run-time. During the compilation, how can we access to the...

Hi, I have a question about how to put redundant information in data structures, initialized at compile time. This is often necessary for performance reasons and can't be done at run time (data structures are read only) Ideally one should be able to put the redundant information there automatically so no mistakes are possible, but in a lot of case I see no way how to do it.

I have a form which contains a picturebox control which displays a gif image. By default, the image that was selected when I designed the dialog gets stored in the resx file and gets compiled and displayed. How can I force the compiler to re-link to that gif file on the file system at compile time so that I don't need to re-assign the gif file every time a change is made to it? thanks!

Hi, I'm about half way through Bruce Eckels thinking in C++ Vol 1. He gives a very short example of how compiler function name decoration helps remove subtle bugs by type-safe linkage. However, upon looking at the example i understand why it fails to link but don't understand why it even compiles. Here's the code, which split between 2 files Def.cpp and Use.cpp: //File Def.cpp

I have read that using templates makes types know at compile time and using inheritance the types are first decided at runtime. The use of pointers and casts also indicates that the types will first be know at runtime. But is there some strict definitions that defines runtime code and compile time code that can be used in general?

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: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. 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. The idea...
