Hi all,
This week I’ll be sharing an experience I had recently. Yes, recently despite my “10 years” of C++ experience. There’re still many more things that I do not know about C++ and have tried but failed to fully gasp its concepts properly.
And I think it’s fair to share knowledge gaps since everybody has their flaws. I hope that this article can help some if not help myself should the contents be flawed or inaccurate.
So, let’s have a look… Read the rest of this entry »

So how is it possible that a ‘this’ pointer can lead to a disaster?

In any case, this is a disaster scenario caused by misunderstanding or abusing the use of Object Oriented programming in C++
