Tips for PuTTY

  1. Why doesn't the keypad work as expected? It keeps sending an escape sequence.
    Ans: These confusing things happen when PuTTY is in "application keypad mode".  Please follow the following steps:
    1. Bring up PuTTY Configuration.
    2. In the left pane, select Terminal - Features.
    3. Put a check mark next to "Disable application keypad mode".
  2. In the "ee" editor, If you want to move a line to somewhere else:
    1. Press Ctrl-K to cut the line
    2. Use cursor key to move to where you want to insert the line
    3. Press Ctrl-L
  3. In the "nano" editor, if you want to move a line to somewhere else:
    1. Press Ctrl-K to cut the line
    2. Use cursor key to move to where you want to insert the line
    3. Press Ctrl-C to paste the line

Tips for Visual C++

  1. Q: My solution consists of two projects, but I want to use Visual Studio to debug only one of them.
    A: In the Solution Explorer, right-click the project, and choose "Debug - Start New Instance".
  2. Q: I accidentally messed up the layout of my Visual Studio. What should I do?
    A: Window - Reset Window Layout
  3. Tools - Options - Text Editor - C++
  4. Help source choices can be changed in the Options dialog box under /Help/Online.
  5. Comments a block of code: Ctrl-K Ctrl-C.
  6. Uncomments a block of code: Ctrl-K Ctrl-U.
  7. Reformat a block of code: Ctrl-K Ctrl-F
  8. Project Properties (Alt-F7) - C/C++ - Preprocessor - Preprocessor Definition
  9. error C4996: 'strtok': This function or variable may be unsafe. Consider using strtok_s instead.
  10. If you cannot find the "Resource View":
  11. View the assembly code generated by Visual C++

FAQ

  1. On lilina, why g++ complains that it does not recognize "stoi()"?
    A: Use "g++ -std=c++11".
  2. I have the following code. How do I tell the program there is no more input? 
    #include <iostream>
using std::cin;
using std::cout;

int main() {
    int sum = 0;
    int i;
    while (cin >> i) {
        sum += i;
    }
    cout << sum << '\n';
    return 0;
}

    Ans: In Windows, press Ctrl-Z Enter at the beginning of a line. In Unix, press Ctrl-D at the beginning of a line.
  3. Q: In Visual C++, how to change the theme from "Dark" to "Light"?
    A: Tools - Options - Environment - General
  4. Q: When I started Visual Studio, I left "Development settings" as "General", instead of choosing "Visual C++". Now I cannot create MFC projects. What should I do?
    A: Tools - Import and Export Settings - Reset all settings.
  5. Q: In Visual C++, I have "#include <cmath>", but why it still cannot find the constant M_PI?
    A: M_PI is not C standard. If you want to use M_PI, add in your pch.h file.
    Check the article "Precompiled Header Files for further information.
  6. My C++ program can be compiled, but clang++ shows lots of warning: warning: conversion from string literal to 'char *' is deprecated [-Wdeprecated-writable-strings]
    You may compile with the option
    "clang++ -Wno-deprecated-writable-strings a.cpp".
  7. On my personal computer, I got an error message "LINK : fatal error LNK1123: failure during conversion to COFF: file invalid or corrupt".
    Solution: Install Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Service Pack 1.
  8. DreamSpark FAQ
  9. How could I connect to the STU.ipv6.club.tw server if I am not inside the campus?
  10. Q: Why can't I type Chinese characters in my editor?
    A: If you are using the "ee" editor, its support for Chinese is incomplete at this moment (until somebody fixs it up). Please try to use "nano" or "vim".
  11. Q: Why can't I create a new project in Visual Studio 2013 in the computer classroom (H-103)?
    A: The administrator did not configure Visual Studio 2013 well, so you will fail to create a new project because of the directory access permission.
    Solution: When you create a new project, change the "Location" to "C:\Users\xxx\Documents\Visual Studio 2013\Projects\". This is the correct path for you to create projects.
    Create Project
  12. Q: During the debugging process, I cannot see the value of variables.
    A: From the menu bar, choose Debug - Windows - Autos.
  13. I created a project to share DLL, but when I release the program I want to use a static library, can I simply change an option instead of re-creating a new project?
    1. Project - Properties - Configuration Properties - General - Use of MFC
      • Change "Use MFC in a Shared DLL" to "Use MFC in a Static Library".
    2. C/C++ options - tab "Code Generation" - Runtime Library
      • Change "Multithreaded DLL (/MD)" to "Multithreaded (/MT)".
  14. Stack Overflow is a question and answer site for professional and enthusiast programmers.
  15. C++ FAQ Lite

Code Writing

  1. Draw a flowchart or write a pseudo code to illustrate the basic idea
  2. Prepare a test case so that after your code is complete, you may verify its correctness.
  3. Keyin your code and check it is correct or not.
  4. If the outcome differs from what you expect, ask yourself why.
  5. For rules about indentation, see GNU Coding Standards.  You may try tools like SourceFormatX Code Formatter.
