[C++ Tutorial]

The Actor class is included as any other Leadwerks class. 
 

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Leadwerks\Include\Classes\Actor.h

 

There is already a C++ setup for you when you create a project. Just open \Projects\Windows\"projectname".sln in Visual Studio and there you go

[Trying to make a health regen code...]

Just a little note.

	if     self.health >= self.maxHealth then
             self.health = self.maxHealth  
      end
	if  self.health <= 0 then
          self.health = 0
 end
	

could be replaced with

self.health = Math:Clamp(self.health, 0, self.MaxHealth)

 

[Upgrading 4.4 C++ projects to 4.5]

Updating to VS 2017 goes fine according to your instructions. Josh, now when you are at it, could you make the changes suggested below to get rid of warnings. A good project should compile without warning!

Release
cl : Command line warning D9030: '/Gm' is incompatible with multiprocessing; ignoring /MP switch
 Remove <MinimalRebuild>true</MinimalRebuild> from <CLCompile> section
-------------------------------------
LINK : /LTCG specified but no code generation required; remove /LTCG from the link command line to improve linker performance
 Add <LinkTimeCodeGeneration>Default</LinkTimeCodeGeneration> to <LINK> section

-------------------------------------

Debug Working Directory is wrong.

Change $(SolutionDir)\..\..\..  to  $(SolutionDir)..\..

-------------------------------------
Debug
1>libcryptoMT.lib(aes_cbc.obj) : warning LNK4099: PDB 'ossl_static.pdb' was not found with 'libcryptoMT.lib(aes_cbc.obj)' ....
1>libcryptoMT.lib(aes_core.obj) : warning LNK4099: PDB 'ossl_static.pdb' was not found with 'libcryptoMT.lib(aes_core.obj)'....
...
...
etc ...

etc ...

 

  Add /ignore:4099 to <LINK> section, line <AdditionalOptions>

-------------------------------------

 

Debug Working Directory is wrong.

Change $(SolutionDir)\..\..\..  to  $(SolutionDir)..\..

[[SOLVED] Model that crashes the editor (and program)]

Solved:

In Blender I scaled it up 100 times and the Applied Scale.

Exported again and scaled down inside the LE-Editor

Now it works

 

[[SOLVED] Model that crashes the editor (and program)]

Yes. I understand the problem. Will make some workaround. No problem now when I understand the reason.
Thanks Josh 

[[SOLVED] Model that crashes the editor (and program)]

Thanks Josh.

That explains it. Great

 

[[SOLVED] Model that crashes the editor (and program)]

Thanks for checking macklebee. Then it must be something local here. I created a blank project and added just that model and material. Placing the 'key' model in the scene works. As soon as I click on in the editor crashes. Oh well... I will reinstall Leadwerks then.

Aaah. I see. Thank's (y)

Why not just use wstring, wchar_t, wfstream etc .. and that's it. A search and replace and maybe some modification here and there and its done

It's standard C++.  There's a header you have to include for VS support, but 'not', 'or', and 'and' are standard.

Cool.. didn't 'not' know that

Okay. Then I don't know. Haven't tested the new GUI my self yet.

Try with logTextArea->Release() instead

[Building a safer linked list for C++]

The reason why remove is slow is that all non-removed item are shifted towards the front of the list while the container keeps it's size. After the operation remove returns an iterator past the last non removed item. Removed items are actually not removed​ but just marked as removed. The idea is to bring down the amount of memory allocations and get a continuous vector. You can also use remove to remove all items of a certain value from the vector

 

Here's some notes on iteration on a vector

http://fastcpp.blogspot.se/2011/03/fast-iteration-over-stl-vector-elements.html?m=1

 

There are quite a few types of containers, each one suited for different situations and with their drawbacks in other situations. There is no "the fastest" I'm afraid.

[Building a safer linked list for C++]

Hard to say without seeing how Link, LinkedList and LinkNode looks like.

Yes using a reference is of course more efficient
