• How to stop Vista from auto changing video resolution?

  - by bialix

  I have new Acer Aspire Revo R3600 computer with Vista pre-installed. The computer has NVidia video adapter. While connecting 17" LCD monitor (LG L1742S) via VGA cable it works fine, and I can change the resolution of the display from max 1920*1024 down to some other value, and after reboot the settings are restored correctly. But when I'm connecting bigger full HD 1920*1080 display (LG E2250) via VGA cable then every boot I have the same problem: I see boot progress window, then I see MS logo, then I see welcome screen then I start to see desktop and suddenly monitor switch off and show me the message about unsupported frequency of input signal As I understand Vista tries to auto-change resolution and sets wrong parameters. I've tried to boot into safe mode and into low-resolution mode, every time I have the same problem: Vista boot-up and suddenly monitor stops working. I've tried to connect this monitor to notebook with Windows XP and has no problem to work with this display on its native resolution. How can I disable this display resolution auto-changer in Vista? Or maybe there is another workaround?

• Is it possible to use Boehm garbage collector only for the part of the program?

  - by bialix

  I've read article in LinuxJournal about Boehm-Demers-Weiser garbage collector library. I'm interesting to use it in my library instead of my own reference counting implementation. I have only one question: is it possible to use gc only for my shared library and still use malloc/free in the main application? I'm not quite understand how gc checks the heap so I'm worrying about performance of gc in that case and possible side effects.

• Free cross-platform library to convert numbers (money amounts) to words?

  - by bialix

  I'm looking for cross-platform library which I can use in my C application to convert money amounts (e.g. $123.50) to words (one hundred twenty three dollars and fifty cents). I need support for multiple currencies: dollars, euros, UK pounds etc. Although I understand this is not hard at all to write my own implementation, but I'd like to avoid reinventing wheel. I've tried to google it, but there is too much noise related to MS Word converters. Can anybody suggest something? UPDATE numerous comments suggest to write my own implementation because it's really easy task. And I agree. My point was about support of multiple currencies in the same time and different business rules to spell the amounts (should be fractional part written as text or numbers? etc.) As I understand serious business applications have such library inside, but I think there is nothing open-source available, maybe because it seems as very easy task. I'm going to write my own libary and then open-source it. Thanks to all.

• scons: overriding build options for one file

  - by Jason S

  Easy question but I don't know the answer. Let's say I have a scons build where my CCFLAGS includes -O1. I have one file needsOptimization.cpp where I would like to override the -O1 with -O2 instead. How could I do this in scons? update: this is what I ended up doing based on bialix's answer: in my SConscript file: Import('env'); env2 = env.Clone(); env2.Append(CCFLAGS=Split('-O2 --asm_listing')); sourceFiles = ['main.cpp','pwm3phase.cpp']; sourceFiles2 = ['serialencoder.cpp','uartTestObject.cpp']; objectFiles = []; objectFiles.append(env.Object(sourceFiles)); objectFiles.append(env2.Object(sourceFiles2)); ... previously this file was: Import('env'); sourceFiles = ['main.cpp','pwm3phase.cpp','serialencoder.cpp','uartTestObject.cpp']; objectFiles = env.Object(sourceFiles); ...
