Graphics / Double-free bug in SFML2 (at least on OS X)

« on: January 15, 2012, 09:33:11 am »

It's a known bug, but it seems to be Apple's fault: https://github.com/SFML/SFML/issues/5

General discussions / New naming convention

But seriously, it is not very hard to change every first letter to lower case. Even the compiler would be pointing you to the right places to do that.

For small or medium size projects that might be true, but in large projects, where it can become a real pain, to fix everything. This could be automated with regular expressions and similar tools, but never 100% perfect: for example if a class which belongs to another library also has a member function Update() it will also be "fixed". That would lead to linker errors if the implementation is in a .lib/.a and linker errors usually dont't show a line number.

Personally, I like javaCase more than PascalCase, but I would still prefer to not break the API for no reason.

Although I've always been against it, and still thinks that it's an insane decision, I did it.

You sayed that it's "insane". You should ask yourself then why you do "insane" things, if you know they are insane.

It's not documented at all (apart from one or two comments). :x But you *can* understand the API. Start with <7z SDK dir>\CPP\7zip\UI\Client7z, which is an minimal example. It demonstrates opening, writing to and displaying the contents of an archive.
