What is the best way to go in the long term: C, Objective C, or C++? -

-

one thing i've been meaning c++ programming not sure if should go c++ (which have basic console programming knowledge) or should c or objective c? i'm looking @ long term ease of coding such editors, compilers, etc quickest set , running.

to go along that, software suggest working suggested language?

[edit]

some people mentioned hard suggest when not known doing. don't have specific program in mind @ moment, i'm looking @ starting 1 of these 3 languages either long-term investment , work or jumping point else.

i can speak of c , c++. learning either wouldn't hurt, if reason legacy code in c , c++.

pure c option operating systems, driver development, or embedded development environments. other uses include times when performance critical-- want "close" internals of machine possible. never hurts know c because these applications of don't seem going away anytime soon. c "lingua franca" lot of *nix applications. if want contribute lot of open source projects (apache/svn/cvs/etc), knowing c requirement.

c++, in experience, used when "close machine" when coding c, option of including higher levels of abstraction via oop. c++'s major strength (and biggest weakness) multi-paradigm. gives stuff can in c plus lots of object-oriented features. example, reuse lots of super-optimized c code needed while creating classes, doing inheritance/polymorphism-- "object-orientedness" want. there's ways throw in functional programming mix...

c++ criticized trying many things many people. attempt everything, critics say, not @ 1 thing. c++ used "lingua franca" desktop applications, java , .net have taken lot of enterprise users away. still, many applications care both performance , using huge amount of additional, useful, good-enough-for-your-purposes features available in c++ choose c++.

windows - Why does Vista not allow creation of shortcuts to "Programs" on a NonAdmin account? Not supposed to install apps from NonAdmin account? -

i'm working on installer (using wise installer, older version 1999). i'm creating shortcut in programs group exe. i'm creating shortcut on desktop. if install run admin account, create shortcut on common desktop , common program group (i.e., read hkey_local_machine\explorer\shellfor users). if it's installed nonadmin account, install hkey_current_user's desktop , program group. behavior install on: xp nonadmin - desktop , program shortcuts install ok. vista admin - desktop & program shortcuts install ok. vista non-admin, uac off - desktop shortcut installs, program shortcut not . however, program group folder they're supposed installed does created. at end of install, launch program group has shorcut. launches in of above. can manually drag shortcut folder , works fine. i'm bloody baffled. i've tried installing other commercial apps (opera, foxit, firefox) firefox install under nonadmin (and if select other program files,...

unit testing - How to mock PreferenceManager in Android? -

-
i've written class using context , third party library , sharedpreferences preferencemanager . it's possible mock context , third party library can mocked using mocking framework, preferencemanager ? i have 2 methods: public void savestring(thirdpartyobject obj) { sharedpreferences apppreferences = preferencemanager.getdefaultsharedpreferences(mcontext); sharedpreferences.editor editor = apppreferences.edit(); editor.putstring(mcontext.getstring( r.string.preferences_string_name), obj.getstring()); editor.commit(); } and corresponding, loads preferences. it doesn't want mock instance of preferencemanager (which used in preferencefragment or preferenceactivity ). you want either: a mock sharedpreferences , in case can mock context#getsharedpreferences (which called preferencemanager#getdefaultsharedpreferences anyhow). you'll have make mock sharedpreferences.editor if preferences edited, above. know how moc...
