Sugesstion about small changes in standard cpp code.

Actually, that's NOT a bad idea. If we put in the comments how to fix the lines, we might give beginners a crash course on bug fixing.

// My first bug (TM). This yields a "blablah" error because yadda yadda.
// To fix, replace the above line with:
// ...........

On a second thought, I can't imagine the dread WE will experience with "I fixed the hello world bug, but it still doesn't compile :( " complaints.  :eek:

No, thanks, nevermind.

How come a discussion of Hello World two pages long?

This thread is absolutely priceless  :lol:  Realy... I like it a lot.

I think the main should not contain the blocking statement. Anyway a console application should be run in a console, am I right? So actually Code::Blocks does his job well, when you run the console app from the IDE, Code::Blocks waits for e keystroke, when you run outside of the IDE you should run from a console. As simple as possible.

Concerning the main(), the parameters of the function should be definitely present:

--- Code: ---int main(int argc, char *argv[])
--- End code ---
It's much more comprehensive.

Personally, I prefer
--- Code: ---int main()
--- End code ---
when I do not need specific options, otherwise
--- Code: ---int main(int argc, char *argv[])
--- End code ---

What is important is that the main must return type int.

BS says in his technical FAQ:


--- Quote ---A conforming implementation accepts
   int main() { /* ... */ }
and
   int main(int argc, char* argv[]) { /* ... */ }

--- End quote ---
