These talks are one of the best C masterclasses out there, thank you!
VS also has the ability to show massive strings when in Debug mode and hovering over strings, which makes it super easy to deal with. Lots of QOL features!
Your videos are very helpful, could you make more long C videos?
I recently discovered you. In the absence of good modern C resources, your channel is very valuable. Please keep posting. My prefered setup is of course vscode + C/C++ extensions there... Because why not have a headache while you're at it
Yet another piece valuable info from an exceptional professional of the field. Once again, thank you, Eskil! <3
Hi! You said that you don't use makefiles, that instead you use #pragma comment etc. So you just put the libraries files you depend upon directly inside your project? Is this portable to other compilers/OS's/architectures? Thanks!
A BRAND NEW VIDEO!
I always enjoy when a new video of yours pops up.
Thanks for taking the time to make this video. Much appreciated.
Funny how you post that just after your stream that made me want to rewatch your "How I program C" video! Hehe thanks Edit: I had no idea they implemented Hot Reload just like the JVM did years and years ago, this is priceless: the speed of iteration you get out of it is incredible. Of course you could still make hot reload yourself with a DLL and an EXE but... Having it OOB is wonderful
Good to see you back
This is really great stuff. Please keep the modern c content coming!
I've been really struggling with debuggers in linux. Been using nvim with different tools but nothing seems quite as robust as what you have displayed here. Ty for showing this off!
I didn't know about that comma thing to view pointer as an array. Very helpful video, thanks
I highly appreciate tools like Visual Studio. I do primarly embedded stuff and the watch window is awesome for memory alignment. Also quite handy to keep track if something get's bigger in memory then it is supposed to be. In the watch window you can keep track of variables while the rest is running until they work on Quick Window. Those tools let you mess around more with the code and let you understand it with experiments. Which is much quicker in my experience then reading the whole thing. And as you showed they catch quite a view more bugs, which is always a good thing.
Oh WOW! Eskil Steenberg with a new video! This is fantastic! 🍀
Your C video made in 2016 is still one of the best contents on C. I use vim and I think I am gonna try VS
Your C content is pure gold.
5:00, but let's suppose you wanna check the pointer nullness only 1 time, in other f(). Will VS Code force you to check it in every f() it appears? That would be bad, due to too many checks.
