If you ever catch yourself thinking "Hey, I could come up with a clever macro to do this repetitive work for me," you should ask yourself a couple of things before you start using it:
1) Does the macro improve readability?
2) Does the macro improve maintainability?
If the answer to either of those is "no," then just don't fucking do it. No one is going to suck your dick for coming up with a macro that makes life difficult for everyone who uses your API.

You're right. This topic far too programming-related to have anything to do with /prog/.
Please disregard this thread resume "check my dubs" and FrozenVoid threads immediately.

1) It is known that C and C++ suck at abstraction.
2) It is known that Cpp (the preprocessor) sucks giant cocks.
3) Visual C++.
4) Stop with that ``fart'' and ``autism'' shit. It doesn't belong to /prog/. Get out.

Microsoft is just trying to get you to stop using the shitty standard C libraries that are a security nightmare. Don't forget, those functions are the reason software is riddled with buffer overflows today.

What version is that? MS Visual C 6 only has _CRTIMP int __cdecl sprintf(char *, const char *, ...);

I bet you think guns are the reason people get killed too (no, this is not going to become a discussion of werecows). Blame the incompetent programmers who shouldn't be writing code, not the tools.

You have far too much faith in humanity. If we ever made a bot this good, I know a guy who will suck EVERYONES dick. If you want it, ya know. :P ... (bleh,lol)

And Microsoft's standard C lib is any better?
Bitch, please!
