C++ pages

[JoeC]

I have been a C++ programmer for a while and I am writing some more
complicated programs. I would like to know if any one who is a member
of a page or programming community that I can join. I would like to
find a group of people that are interested in programming and have
some experience writing programs. Basically I would like to discuss
the projects I am working on and get some advice and be able to help
other programmers. Also I have created a good deal of useful objects
that I would like to share as well. I have objects that work with
windows, color, graphics and other functions.

I have been a C++ programmer for a while and I am writing some more
complicated programs.  I would like to know if any one who is a member
of a page or programming community that I can join.  I would like to

C++ programming is an important part of my job (perhaps the largest
component of my work responsibilities) but I'd be the first to admit
I've still got a lot to learn. As to working with windows, color,
graphics etc., I don't do anything like that at all. I help to create
xll files that do computations on XL worksheets. xlw is an important
tool that we use and I think it's free.

I'm very interested in what you suggest. If you saw the code I work
with, you would immediately be able to identify my company and all
sorts of other private information from looking at the variable
names. However, the actual coding techniques are quite standard. I
wonder if there's a standard tool for changing variable names so that
I could quote my code without having to change all the variable names
by hand.

 Find/Replace works just as well for changing variable names but be sure to
match the whole word.

If my problem is a common one, then a more sophisticated approach is
needed. I work with a library with tens of thousands of different
variable names. A useful utility (which may already exist) would be
one which automatically substitutes every variable name throughout the
library. This would preserve the algorithmic content of the code and
yet largely retain confidentiality.

Here is a good part of my work. I was part of a gaming page until it
went down. This forum is OK but there are a great many people and
they are pretty strict about the topics that get posted. Also this
forum does not support files and archives. Take a look at the
programs and the screen shots if you are interested. I am always
trying to become a better programmer. Right now I am working on a
graphics editor that will allow multi graphics on one graphics file.

That is the trickiest part of programming is commenting and naming
conventions.

Your compiler may already provide this functionality. In Visual Studio,
there is a Find and Replace option that will perform this across all project
files in your entire solution.

Find/Replace works just as well for changing variable names but be sure to
match the whole word.

If you want something more than an online community, search for a
local users group in your area.

It sounds like you're trying to create what's generally referred to as
shrouded source code. One product that claims the ability to do this is
Abraxas CodeFix.
