bowen // User SearchWhat's wrong with my bot's initialization code? (sorry for being a newb, lol)Aug 17, 2003, 4:24am

Ahh, but C++ is more portable and would thus have more opportunities
than any VB programmer. PASCAL might also be considered portable (delphi wouldn't -- since it's the VB of the PASCAL language, and will only be available wherever Borland develops it.). Sure, it doesn't hurt to learn more languages. But some are better designed for tasks then others. VB should really only be used for client software. While C++ can be used for both... from a "overall" standpoint C++ is the better choice of the two if you're going to learn one or the other. Wait... here comes the VB brigade. It is present now, a disturbance I feel. -- --Bowen-- No of SETI units returned: 69 Processing time: 57 days, 10 hours.

Bad C code will not compile. There may be practices you don't agree
with that others do (like using a break to get out of a loop), but, it's not bad code. Unlike VB, you can't really make a horrible mistakes and get the same result. -- --Bowen-- No of SETI units returned: 69 Processing time: 57 days, 10 hours.

Cstring? You mean the microsoft string handeler? There is an ANSI C++
string class you know. (#include <cstring> - or was it just <string>?) -- --Bowen-- No of SETI units returned: 69 Processing time: 57 days, 10 hours. (Total hours: 1378) www.setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu Where oh where are the bot programmers?Aug 26, 2003, 5:35pm

Linking errors are to do with external libraries (most usually). So,
then it's most probably with AW's SDK files. -- --Bowen-- http://bowen.homelinux.com/sys/ Linux is a godly OS, that's an understatement. Any chance for C# wrapper? or anyone willing to work on it with me?Sep 17, 2003, 12:57am

C# is for losers who can't quite grasp C... Who wants more microsoft
proprietary crap? Save AWI employees. -- --Bowen-- http://bowen.homelinux.com/sys/ Yeah, it's that good. (Maybe an AW section in the near future?) Any chance for C# wrapper? or anyone willing to work on it with me?Sep 18, 2003, 5:53pm

Yeah, diabetes will make you looney some times.

Did they teach you how to think analytically? I suspect no. Ignorance
is not a universal truth, it's something of an opinion. Hence, diabetes makes you looney. You ask if they taught someone how to read, then you throw in huge amounts of white space because diabetes has made your thumb and pinky chaotic... then you claim opinion as fact. OK. I just said it sucks, I didn't say everyone else said it sucks. Then there's poop throwing, I love that. Let's add that to our repertoure. Since every >SINGLE< chance you get you claim someone's a kid. You idiotic, loony, diabetes monkey. Come on, give me something that's more well thought up. I know you can do it. Diabetes hasn't messed with your brain that much yet. -- --Bowen-- http://bowen.homelinux.com/sys/ Yeah, it's that good. (Maybe an AW section in the near future?)

(£30 is insanely high for used software that's out of date) No one is going to buy it from you when they could get an out of the box copy (for students -- learning edition) for the same price.

And, that was a while ago. Remember, auction prices go up. Start at a
reasonably low amount (used software products generally sell for 1/3 the amount without being an action to begin with). This software is completely outdated too, according to Microsoft. Aw Sdk Functions ModuleFeb 22, 2004, 4:25am

Yup, that's why I created my bot class I released here a while back.

Just giving everyone a headsup on a virus being spread around again via
billing at activeworlds.com or similar. As always, don't run attachments from people you don't know. As far as I could coerce, it was W32.Netsky.B at mm in the file information.com. Nice try though Matt. --Bowen-- virus alert (cross-posted to all groups)Feb 20, 2004, 6:20pm

Yes, Spoofed header carrying the "from" address billing at activeworlds.com.

He's still trying, Now he's trying to spoof a "delivery failed" so I'll read the attachment through that. Still has the W32.Netsky.B at mm worm on it. --Bowen-- sdk.aw_address conversion codeFeb 25, 2004, 7:05am
I'll give you brownie points if you can write similar code in C or C++
and not use a prebuilt library to do it for you (the actual conversion code ;)). sdk.aw_address conversion codeFeb 26, 2004, 3:42pm

Didn't have to be perfect. :) But I like yours better (the person with
the shorter code always gets more brownie points). sdk.aw_address conversion codeFeb 27, 2004, 1:05am

Nah, it's definately a Borland problem -- make sure to wear your mask.
