Visual C++ Environment, Preprocessor and Hungarian Notation Lecture 2 Visual C++ Environment, Preprocessor and Hungarian Notation Visual C++ Environment: For now, we will barely touch the massive features that this environment offers. Creating a project: Visual C++ 4.0: Visual C++ 5.0: File File New New Project Workspace Projects Tab Console Application Win32 Console Application Browse to set location Location Button to Browse Assign a project name Assign a project name Create (hit enter key) File File New New Text file C++ Source File -or- Header enter program, etc. enter code File SaveAs filename (.cpp or .h) Insert Project File into project Add to Project Files To see project structure: on left viewer window: on left viewer window: select FileView select Files To compile a single file: Build Compile To build the project Build Build To compile and run ("Go"): Build Execute To debug: Build Debug Example: // Page 64 program #include <iostream.h> int main() { int counter, grade, total, average; total = 0; counter = 1; while (counter <= 10 ) { cout << "Enter grade: "; cin >> grade; total = total + grade; counter = counter + 1; } average = total / 10; cout << "Class average is " << average << endl; return 0; } The preprocessor highlights: #include <file> // standard libraries #include "file" // directory then standard libraries #define PI 3.14159 // anything after symbolic constant is substituted for PI #undef PI #if !defined(NULL) #define NULL 0 #endif #ifdef DEBUG cout << "Got here\n"; #endif a common trick to avoid reprocessing a header file: #ifndef somethingh #define somethingh // body of something.h #endif #error tokens // tokens displayed and preprocessing stops #pragma tokens // some implementation action #: #define NameOut(x) cout << #x << endl; #x substitutes "x" i.e., NameOut(Gary) gives cout << "Gary" << endl; ##: concatenates two tokens. #define Glue(x,y) x ## y i.e., Glue(Pass, Exam) gives PassExam "Hi " "There" gets translated to "Hi There" by preprocessor assert macro (see assert.h) assert( condition ); if condition is false, assert prints error message and calls abort. To turn off: #define NDEGUB Hungarian notation: Developed by Charles Simonyi at Microsoft to make naming conventions standard and understandable. variable name = prefix + base type + qualifier (also called constructor + tag + qualifier ) Base type (tag) is ALWAYS present. Base types are usually application dependent and stand for something relevant to the tasks at hand. Eg. char chA; // chA is a one-byte character double dBob; // dBob is a double Color coGreen; // coGreen might hold the structure of a green color // co is the tag. Color is some typedef structure. Some Standard Base Types (tags) f - Flag (boolean, logical) fl - File structure returned from operating system ch - One-byte character sz - Zero-terminated string fn - Function n - Integer (usually a short int) e - Enumeration (enumeration types) st - Structure w - Word (typically 16 bits) b - Byte (typically 8 bits) l - Long (typically 32 bits) u - Unsigned uw - Unsigned word (typically 16 bits) ul - Unsigned long bit - Single bit v - Void d - Double (double precision) r - float (single precision) Prefixes (constructors) are used with a base type to describe more complex items. Eg. char* pchA; // pchA is a pointer to a one-byte character double rgdBob[10]; // rgdBob is an array of doubles int idBob; // index for array of doubles Color gcoGreen; // gcoGreen holds the structure of a green color // and has global scope. Some Standard Prefixes (constructor): p - Pointer lp (or lptr) - Far pointer (long pointer) rg - Array, or pointer to array i - Index into an array c - Count d - Difference between two instances of a type h - Handle mp - Array followed by index type and then element type e - Element of an array f - Bit within a type g or v - Global Qualifiers what we usually think of as the name. In the above examples, A, Bob and Green are qualifiers. They usually indicate what the variable is used for. They may be multiple words. Capitalize the first letter of each and make the rest lower case. Constants are usually all caps. Some Standard Qualifiers First - First element in a set or array Last - Last element in a set or array Lim - Upper limit of elements in a set, invalid value Min - First element in a set, often refers to actual first element Max - Upper limit of elements in a set, invalid value for(int i=nMin;i<nMax;i++) Mac - Current upper limit of elements in a set, can change Mic - Current first element in a set, can change Most - Last element in a set, used when paired with Min Mac - 1 usually Sav - Temporary saved value Nil - Special illegal value Null - The 0 value T - Temporary value Src - Source, used in transfer operations Dest - Destination Example: // Page 64 program - rewritten #include <iostream.h> int main() { int nCounter = 1; int nTotal = 0; while (nCounter <= 10 ) { int nGrade; cout << "Enter grade: "; cin >> nGrade; nTotal+= nGrade; nCounter++; } double dAverage = (double)nTotal / 10.; cout << "Class average is " << dAverage << endl; return 0; } Procedure Names: Capitalize first letter. If it returns something, start the name with the type returned. Follow this with some verbs describing what the procedure does. Can follow this with the type of parameters. Eg. int NCountEntriesPsz( char* pszName ) More will be covered once we hit C++..

    Semantic Navigation of Large Code Bases in Higher-Order, Dynamically Typed Languages S. Alexander Spoon and Olin Shivers College of Computing Georgia Institute of Technology Atlanta, GA 30032 Abstract— Chuck is a new code browser that allows navigation formed by deeper semantic connections between elements of of a code base along semantic structures, such as data-flow and the code, such as the data- and control-flow induced by the higher-order control-flow relationships. Employing the fast DDP dynamic semantics of the language. (In particular, note that type inferencer, it is effective on dynamically typed code bases an order of magnitude larger than the code bases supported by control flow in a higher-order functional or object-oriented previous browsers. Chuck supports the full Smalltalk language, language is no longer directly encoded in the syntax of the lan- and is now shipped as a standard component of the Squeak guage.) For example, semantic navigation allows programmers open-source Smalltalk system, where it routinely works with code to navigate from a new expression to the expressions that use bases exceeding 300,000 lines of code. Chuck’s implementation is objects created by that expression. It allows programmers to tuned for interactive use, and is transparently integrated with the Squeak system’s existing code-browsing tools. Thus, it provides navigate from a message-send expression to the narrow set of semantic navigation of a live code base that is still being edited methods that might respond to that specific invocation. These without requiring long pauses for reanalysis due to edits of the links, whose increased precision and tighter bounds help guide code.

  • 1 Lesson 2 VARIABLES Aim Understanding How Computer
    Lesson 2 VARIABLES Aim Understanding how computer programs store values, and how they are accessed and used in computer programs. WHAT ARE VARIABLES? When you input data (i.e. information) into a computer the data is stored in the computer’s memory. To visualise this, you might think of the computer’s memory as millions of little boxes, each holding a single value. Normally, each box is numbered starting at zero. As a computer uses binary numbers (made up of 0s and 1s), the boxes may be numbered something like this: 10100010, which is 162 in decimal. The actual number of boxes depends on the amount of memory in the specific computer. When data is put into the computer, the computer stores the data in the boxes that are part of the computer’s Random Access Memory (RAM), and the number of those boxes is referred to as the memory address. Obviously, for humans to refer to memory addresses by their binary index would be very difficult, so programming languages use a device called a variable. A variable is a word label that the programmer assigns to a piece of data, so they don’t need to worry about where it is stored in memory or how to tell the computer where to find it. Variables are simple memory boxes with names. You, the programmer, supply these names. For example, the following lines first declare a variable called myAge of data type Integer (it will store whole numbers), and then assigns the integer value 25 to myAge : Dim myAge As Integer myAge = 25 When you declare a variable, you must give it a name (and then compiler will claim some memory space and associate the name with the binary address), and specify the type of data that will be stored in that variable.

  • Software Development and Coding Standards
    Software Development and Coding Standards Falko Kuester and David Wiley Visualization and Interactive Systems Group Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering University of California, Irvine 537 Engineering Tower Irvine, California 92697-2625 Visualization and Graphics Research Group Center for Image Processing and Integrated Computing Department of Computer Science University of California, Davis, CA 95616-8562 December 10, 2001 1 Preface Every programmer inherently learns and practices a custom programming style. The reason for this is no doubt rooted in how programmers learn to program: a snippet from this book, a line from that, an algorithm from this magazine, an array class from that. Every programmer is essentially a melting pot for the many different styles that exist. It is left to the statistically inclined reader to determine just how many combinations are possible and at which frequency. Having a custom style is generally suitable as long as the programmer abstains from interacting with other programmers and decides to be a prisoner to that particular style. Aside from the usual social discontinuities, problems surface when programmers begin to mingle. A random sample of C++ source code from the Internet will yield a variety of C++ dialects. Either you will learn some new things or your eyes will tire from poorly written code. The one constant is that you will never find two programmers that do things exactly the same way. Even more problems occur when teams of programmers must work together. In this environment source code can make round trips through programmers, changing ever so slightly in each iteration. Small scale battles can occur in these code bytes in the form of moving curly braces and parenthesis around, adding or removing spaces, tabbing this, carriage- returning that, commenting this, not commenting at all, renaming variables, or using for loops instead of while loops.

  • Naming Conventions in Win32 and MFC
    Naming Conventions in Win32 and MFC Dr. Patrick Young, Stanford University CS193W Summer 2003 Hungarian Notation Win32 follows a notation convention called Hungarian Notation. In Hungarian Notation the first character or first several characters of a variable or parameter name identifies that variable or parameters type. Here are some of the most common Hungarian Notation prefixes: b or f—used as a prefix for booleans (f stands for flag). c—used as a prefix to chars.1 n—used as a prefix to shorts. h—used as a prefix for a handle. Handles in Win32 are numbers used to identify resources or windows. They are not pointers or pointers to pointers. Think of them as ID numbers. l—used as a prefix to a long. w—used as a prefix to a word. dw—used as a prefix to a double word. s—used as a prefix to a string. sz—used as a prefix to a null-terminated string.2 p—used as a prefix to a pointer. lp—used as a prefix to a long pointer (this is the same as a pointer in Win32 and is a relic from Win16). fn—used as a prefix to function parameters. 1 The combination cb is also used for parameters which represent the number of bytes of something. In this case cb is short for count in bytes. 2 sz can also be used for size. I do recommend double checking the documentation to make sure that the string is indeed null terminated, as an error here can be very difficult to track down.

  • Coding Conventions: the Hungarian Notation
    Coding Conventions: The Hungarian Notation The Hungarian notation is a language-independent programming naming convention wherein the name of an object designates its type and usage. The Hungarian notation has primarily been popularised by Microsoft and their corresponding usage of it in their APIs, articles, code samples and reference documentation sets. It works by adding a prefix to the identifier name; this prefix indicates the identifier’s type. Hungarian notation was the brainchild of Charles Simonyi while at Xerox. The notation was commonly used at Xerox PARC (Palo Alto Research Centre) and later widely implemented at Microsoft, the company Simonyi joined after leaving Xerox. There are many advantages to using Hungarian notation, one of them is that you can, for instance, look at a variable name and instantly know its type, without having to look it up – thus easing the process of reading code written by someone else. Hungarian notation is also very useful where large development teams are involved since it offers a well structured naming convention, forcing everyone involved to program in a unified manner. The notation applies to variable names, types, constants, parameters, functions and classes. Using Hungarian Notation Table A.1 lists some of the prefix codes used in Hungarian notation. Table A.1 – Hungarian Notation Prefix Coes Prefix Code Description ch Character. s String. w Word. l Long. n Number type (either int or short). i Integer. fn Function pointer. b BYTE. st Pointer to a string. sz Pointer to a 0 byte terminated string lp Long pointer. p Pointer. d Difference between instances. c Count of instances.
