I'm building some business process automation for a customer at work. The customer is a company absolutely crammed with retarded jeets who will either not understand what the fuck I'm doing (management) or try to take credit for my work and scam us out of payment (devs). My current goal is to convince the one old white guy who still works on the customer's development team to build us an API endpoint so I can stop trying to scrape a website that their jeetdevs keep fucking changing out from under me. If not for AI the churn rate on that FUCKING WEBSITE would entirely overwhelm my ability to keep up.

Genuine question, in a professional production codebase today in something like C++ or Rust or Go, if you had to implement a bitfield for a few simple operations - would you use a library to wrap your uint32 and have operations available like count_ones() or get(i), or would you just just do some bit-shifting by hand?

I don't have pajeets in my company, but I feel like bit operations are so rare nowadays that it just ends up error-prone, and anyone who reads this piece of code afterwards will have to just stop and spend like 10 seconds making sure their mental model of what this one line is doing is correct. This isn't in some embedded context or anything, it'd be the only place where a bitfield is in use in the codebase (and the reason for it is to save space in a network wire format that needs to pass a bunch of booleans, which is a relatively rare use and isn't required anywhere else in what we do).
But also I don't really want to pull in a new library just for a few lines of bitwise arithmetic deserializing one message format.

>>108541685
I would just write my own wrapper functions, it's gotta be what, 200 LoC for bitfield getter/setters tops?

>>108541693
I don't even want to do that, it'd be more like 50 LoC but it's still basically replacing 3 LoC inline with 50 LoC of wrappers. Am I being retarded, would having a dedicated bitfield getter sitting somewhere in utils be less error-prone than a bit of inline bitshifting?

Depends on context. If it's just simple reading or writing in one place then comments and manual shifting should be fine. But if you pass these things around or do more complex operations, I would use a library like bitflags or bitfields(Rust) because their interfaces are nice and why reinvent the wheel.

>>108548349
The problem isn't so much the number of types of initialization, each one has use cases.

>another autist who does NOT understand that implementation and interface are incontrovertibly linked
Mate, the problem isn't the implementation. I can call NtQueryDirectoryFileEx with some perfectly arranged scratch memory just as well, without having to issue the first call with SL_RETURN_SINGLE_ENTRY to stack memory and all subsequent calls with a random number of bytes. No, the problem is that the directory iterator interface *itself* doesn't allow for these kinds of optimizations. The interface needs to change first before the implementation can be optimal.

>>108548812
Right, because declaring something ‘incontrovertibly linked’ definitely makes it so. That’s a neat shortcut.

What you’re describing is still an implementation workaround dressed up as an interface limitation. The fact that you can call NtQueryDirectoryFileEx with properly managed scratch memory kind of undercuts the claim that the interface itself is the hard blocker here—it just means the current implementation isn’t taking advantage of that flexibility.

But sure, insisting the interface must be redesigned first is a convenient way to avoid dealing with the actual constraints in front of you. It’s a bold strategy, if nothing else.

>>108548835
>it just means the current implementation isn’t taking advantage of that flexibility
How the FUCK is the implementation supposed to take advantage of something that the interface doesn't expose, you fucking autist? Can I pass a pointer to __std_fs_directory_iterator_open that allows it to directly write kernel data without memory allocation? Can I pass the amount of bytes __std_fs_directory_iterator_open is allowed to write in one go?

No. No, I can't. Because the *interface* doesn't let me, and so the implementation *can't*.

>>108548885
Yeah, the all-caps and insults really help clarify the argument.

You’re still skipping over the part where ‘the interface doesn’t expose it’ doesn’t automatically mean ‘no optimization is possible whatsoever.’ It just means that specific form of optimization—i.e., the one you’ve decided is the only acceptable one—isn’t expressible through it.

Also, you’re acting like the only two states are ‘perfect zero-allocation direct kernel writes’ or ‘completely hopeless.’ There’s a pretty wide space in between those, where implementations can and do improve behavior without redesigning the entire interface from scratch.

But sure, if the goal is to prove the interface is irredeemable rather than to actually work within its constraints, then yeah—mission accomplished, I guess.

>no optimization is possible whatsoever
Read again:
>No, the problem is that the directory iterator interface *itself* doesn't allow for these kinds of optimizations
Never said anything about ALL optimizations. Only, y'know, the most pressing ones. Because the *interfaces* were not designed for proper use among the big four, but for whatever other platforms exist out there, so of *course* you cannot achieve as much performance and as little memory utilization as a *proper* implementation.

>where implementations can and do improve behavior without redesigning the entire interface from scratch
They can try, but they are *never* gonna beat a proper implementation that isn't hampered by its interface. It's just that simple, and no amount of denial on your part is ever gonna change that.

>>108548936
Ah, I see—we’ve upgraded from ‘impossible’ to ‘not the most pressing ones.’ Subtle, but important.

You’re still framing this as if anything short of your definition of a ‘proper implementation’ is inherently crippled. In reality, interfaces are almost always a compromise between portability, safety, and performance. The fact that it doesn’t expose your preferred knobs doesn’t make it fundamentally broken—it just means it wasn’t designed around that specific use case.

And yes, a bespoke, tightly-coupled implementation can outperform a generalized interface. That’s… not exactly a revelation. The trade-off is that you lose the very abstraction the interface is trying to provide in the first place.

So it’s not really ‘denial’ on my part—it’s just recognizing that you’re arguing against the existence of abstractions by pointing out that they aren’t as optimal as specialized code. Which is true, but also kind of the point.

AI is a token optimiser, assembly is very obtuse token-wise.

function do_x:

is much easier for an AI to generate than raw assembly.
Turning well specified code into highly optimised assembly is also largely deterministic and done very well by normal compilers. Trying to make AI output assembly would basically mean trying to replace deterministic, optimised compilers with a non-deterministic, faillible system, doing something it's generally bad at, and in a way that'll be incredibly hard to debug or spot (if I writes a shitty function you can at least easily read it and notice).

Hello, i am pretty new to programming in general and i started learning c around a week ago. I am having an error about list not being a proper pointer type in a specific point of my main with the processFile function.

void main(int argc, char *argv[]){
    FILE *fptr = fopen(FILEPATH, "r");
    post list[LINES];
    int elements = readfile(list, fptr);
    post oList[elements];
    oList[elements] = processFile(list, elements);
both LENGHT and LINES are macros for 20 and 25 respectively.
Picrel is how i defined processFile. The program in this phase should scan and sort the contents of a text file containing a starting point, a point of arrival and a fee for that tract.

>>108550039
try passing &list to processFile or removing the * in the declaration (but then I'm not sure if in C that it can be mutated then?)

>>108550039
You're already working with pointers? *whistles*

>>108550086
I had actually tried removing the pointers earlier, but it caused a segmentation fault, for some reason.
Even though i think i kind of get the gist of how pointers with structs work, but i still have trouble understanding how to implement that in functions.
For additional clarity, here's how i defined the post struct and the readFile function

typedef struct {
    char start[LENGHT];
    char end[LENGHT];
    float fee;
}post;

int readfile(post list[LINES], FILE *fptr) {
    int i=0;
    if (fptr!=NULL){
        while (fscanf(fptr, "%s%s%f", list[i].start, list[i].end, &list[i].fee)!=EOF){
            i++;

I fixed my loader not being able to handle TLS data. Now it can load and run a program like

#include <stdio.h>
#include <windows.h>

#define TLS_VAL 0xdeadbeef

__declspec(thread) int tls_val = TLS_VAL;

int main() {
    printf("performing test\n");

    if (tls_val != TLS_VAL) {
        printf("wrong tls_val, got: %d (%x)\n", tls_val, tls_val);
        return 1;
    }

    printf("all good\n");
}

It happens in this code

if let Some(dir) = pe.tls_data.map(|data| data.image_tls_directory) {
    log::debug!(target: "pe::tls", "{:#X?}", dir);
    let start = dir.start_address_of_raw_data as usize - pe.image_base as usize;
    let end = dir.end_address_of_raw_data as usize - pe.image_base as usize;
    let len = end - start;

    let mut data = vec![0; len + dir.size_of_zero_fill as usize];
    data.as_mut_ptr().copy_from(memory.index::<u8>(start), len);

    let slot = TlsAlloc();
    log::debug!(target: "pe::tls", "slot: {:X?}", slot);

    let teb = {
        let ptr: usize;
        // Grab the address of the main thread's TEB
        arch::asm!("mov {}, gs:[0x58]", out(reg) ptr);
        ptr as *mut *mut u8
    };

    *teb.add(slot as usize) = data.leak().as_mut_ptr();
    let index_address = dir.address_of_index - pe.image_base;
    *memory.index(index_address as usize) = slot;
}

Writing notes about Ada's memory management:
https://onlypotentate.gitgud.site/notes/ada/memory-management/#creating-a-pool

is there a clean way to make 2 objects depend on each other?

both objects contain a context that allows reading / writing, but the reads require callback function rather than calling read on the object. I need to pass information from one context to the other based on some logic and having them just point at each other feels very wrong since it breaks any sense of hierarchy. I can't think of another way to do it though

example objects, I want to instantiate 2 of these and direct their writes back into the callback function for reading on the other one. everything I try is really ugly

class Context {
public:
    Context(std::function<void(int)> callback) : on_read(callback) {}
    
    void write(int) {}
    
    std::function<void(int)> on_read;

>>108552333
>>108552763
Things I'd consider:
>a "writer" for each context that can be passed around
write_a and write_b are basically that in the form of a lambda. You can have context.get_writer() that returns the std::function automatically, maybe (it's been ages since I've written C++ but surely that would work).
Initialization is circular but you can encapsulate it into a ContextPair thingy, whether that be an object or literally just a helper function, and it'd return an std::pair<Context, Context> with their writers already interlinked.

>a backing ContextStore object
Just have a single object storing a_val and b_val, or even a map<contex_id, val>, and then each Context object is basically a view into its specific val while also being able to write to other vals in the store.

>literally just what you have here
If the usage is relatively small then you might not need to overcomplicate it

If this is going to be multi-threaded code then you obviously either need mutexes on this, or I'd consider message passing where contextes subscribe to specific channels corresponding to their value and can also send "write" messages into other channels. For single-threaded use this obviously doesn't matter.

replace all unsigned char* with char*
your IDE should be sane and it should walk you through every replacement one by one before you actually replace the string.
also why would you use const unsigned char*, you are just adding more text for no reason, just stick to char or use a macro / typedef if you think the signedness ever mattered.
Technically... I think you can set the char to unsigned with -funsigned-char

Why can't you use %s?

Why would I have a byte table that only goes up to 127 if I can have one that goes up to 255? Any text that I care about isn't ASCII anyway, it's UTF-8. When I want to parse text I am treating it as generic binary data, not as array of characters.

>niggerlicious function like macros

is this the modern C++ (TM) approved way of passing a file path into an object that is going to use it?

class IO {
    const std::filesystem::path &path;
public:
    IO(const std::filesystem::path &path) : path(std::move(path)) {}
};

I'm not entirely clear on the whole lvalue / rvalue thing as well as move semantics, but I want:
>the object to not be allowed to modify the path
>the object to not leave the original path in a bad state (move does this, but not with reference??)
>pass a reference instead of copy if possible (what happens if I construct with a string literal?)
and should I even use the filesystem path? it seems more correct but don't strings have that small string optimization thing? would they arguably be better because of that?

In C, this is just

struct IO newIO(const char *path) {...}

>>108560969
Looks bad, I don't see std::vector anywhere.

>>108560969
move is just a cast from T& to T&&, its when you pass that T&& to a function that is overloaded to do something different from T& that something happens (e.g. if it had a move constructor), here idk if move actually does anything but you should remove it anyway
if you have a string literal it will be destroyed at the end of the full expression, e.g.
result = my_function(of(something(else(IO("a string")))));
would destroy it after my_function returns and assigns result
