As per your link VFM. They STILL don’t get it do they.

Can chase the refund though so I have.

Used online banking first to check for refunds. Nope, just two withdrawls from PayPal *Asknet AG. Who ?

I paid online with my debit card so whats PayPal got to do with it and who are Asknet AG ? PayPal haven’t even got my new card number because I had a new one last month.

Logged in to PayPal. Zero transactions and still the old card number.

Anyway I looked at my payment reciept email again and found that it came from cyberlink@support-asknet.com

Back at the Cyberlink web site I found in the small print that all requests for refunds had to sent to Asknet AG directly by email at the provided address.

I sent off an email and I had a reply saying I now have a support ticket with them. Should have a reply within 3 working days.

But still, who is Asknet AG ?

I hear on LBC this morning that May and Corbin are close to stitching together the exact deal that NO ONE wants.

The details are to be announced on Tuesday but basically its May’s deal but with a full customs union and workers rights to be represented on company boards.

IF the above is true then Mrs Mays lame duck deal will probably pass when it is regurgitated again.

No EU elections, No Brexit, No problem for the politicians.

I think they have another thing coming.

Thats my guess too but I also have 3 other older Cyberlink products like Power Director that I still use.

I was hoping that Cyberlink support could identify the error code and point me in the right direction. Maybe they ARE looking into it and thats whats taking a while. Can’t do much about it till Thursday now because I wont be back home till then.

Nah, but the vast majority of Remainers thought no further than their next  holiday on the continent. These people really do think we are going to pick our island up and move it !

Hang the sense of it where’s the sangria.

Don’t  know if you can still get a Radion RX480 but it works with an Intel 930

You mean a Euro free zone. Must be lovely.

It is typical. If the server at the other end is slow then your download will be slow. Don’t matter how fast your connection is.

It really would be as good as a second referendum but without ignoring the will of the people in the first one.

If the Tory’s want to win the next election all they have to do is appoint Boris as leader, give him a couple of weeks to bang on about leave means leave, and then call a GE before he gets a chance to do anything.

Mrs Mays deal is NOT Brexit. If it were it would have been passed and we would have left on time £39 Billion the poorer.

So I ask again Dave, WHAT Brexit media ? A majority of people still just wan’t out inspite of the deafening cries from the BBC et all.

[Wheels-Of-Fire]

What Brexit media is that then Dave? Even the Sun is saying we should take Mrs Mays deal as the lesser of two evils. So that leaves the Mail and who else ?

If you have Visual Studio installed and you fancy giving it a go by following the walk through I posted earlier then there are a couple of things to note.

The first part of the walk through is just compiling fltk from source.

The files from Github need to go in the actual project folder inside the solution folder.

Don’t untick any of the inherit from project boxes (it shows that in one of the screen shots) or you will get “can’t open source wsock32.lib” or any other Microsoft library.

[Wheels-Of-Fire]

Thats exactly what I did,twice. I got the message there is no master Zip. 10 minutes later I noticed there is no connection to the internet either ?.

My connection kept going up and down so I gave up until this morning. I now have the new files but they still wont compile.

[Wheels-Of-Fire]

If you care to take a look its under:

Whitehatty/Programming-Principles-And-Practice-Using-Cpp

[Wheels-Of-Fire]

How do I download a file from GitHub ?

I have an account and the desktop app but I cant see how its done.

Someone called whitehatty has kindly posted updated versions of Mr Stroustrups files but I can’t get them. There is no master Zip.

Looks interesting and I will give it a go at some point but it is for C# and uses the .NET framework.

At the moment I only have C++ installed under Visual Studio. I am making my life difficult by learning to write unmanaged code first ?

[Wheels-Of-Fire]

I am just going to have to read the graphics chapters without doing the examples. It is not possible to just skip ahead because those chapters introduce base classes and inheritance and it is not possible to get the example libraries working.

Consider my recommendation for this book withdrawn ?

I now have a more recent and less evil copy of std_lib_facilities.h

The warnings about out of date macros are gone and on its own it works, even with a short program that uses a vector.

There is still a #define vector Vector line in there though and Window.h still throws up “Vector is not a member of std.

That Vector def is there to get a range checked vector but it is not needed with VS 2017 because vectors are now range checked during a debug build anyway.

I tried putting a #define Vecror vector in Window.h but it caused more errors.

Stuck now.

[Wheels-Of-Fire]

Oh yeh. The error is a compiler error and just commenting out the macro causes a host of other errors instead.
