How does OOP compile?

[adosorken]

There isn't really ANY instance where I believe OOP is actually *necessary*...it's just another way to code.

I know that...If you wanted to, you could code Half-life in assembly...But is there any instance where it would be ridiculous not to use OOP?

When constructing a window, it's faster/easier to use OOP rather than a bunch of procedure calls. Of course, I'm not 100% familiar with how it works in C++ for Windows, considering all my Windows coding nowadays is IN assembly...and everything is an 'invoke'...very similar to procedural C++...meh.

Pretty much whenever you have object-like things. Windows are example. So are database/cgi objects in Perl.

I see what you mean, toonski.
window.width.value=80;
Gotcha.

OOP sucks.

End.

Aren't you the proponent of line numbers and goto??? :rotfl:

The reason I think HT is all hype is because when we bought up the server farm in NJ, the owner was bragging about HT this and HT that...when all the servers are single-CPU P4's. If HT relates to multiple processors, where does HT enter the picture with single processors? I haven't really looked into HT very much so I can't say much on the subject outside of what I've experienced from the bonehead who sold me the servers

Aga, nek, and others who dont know much about HT,

How ignorant! HT is a smart technology. It makes your single processor appear as two to the operating system. So basically the processor can execute more instructions per cycle =P.

Here is what i found.

I wasn't the one claiming that HT was stupid technology!!!!
