Query error?
 
Hi! I have a problem with my query, and I have NO idea what the error is :-/

Solved it.

Tanax 11-13-2008 03:54 PM

Nevermind xD Solved it.

Don't you solve all your own problems?

Tanax 11-13-2008 07:08 PM

Haha, sorry :-( You're just too slow to reply ;-)
You had.. almost 3 hours with this (A) haha nah j/k :-)

But isn't it good that I solve my problems on my own? =)

It's great, just don't post threads BEFORE you actually try to solve the problem itself ;)

Tanax 11-13-2008 11:09 PM

I don't. I post threads when I'm stuck and tried everything I can think of.
As you see, I took a long break before trying to solve this(in this case it was 3 hours from the time I posted the thread, to the time when I solved it). Apparently in this case, I just made a typo, writing printf instead of sprintf, and it's not easy to see when you've coded for 5 hours in a row. All I needed was a break, and get my mind straight. So I posted the thread in the hope that someone here would notice my typo quicker than I could "recover", but like I said; I was faster(like all the other threads I've made).

Anyways, sorry if I take up valueble space with my seemingly "useless" threads :-(

How about retaining an archive of useful topics? Rather than editing out the first post whenever you solve your own questions, perhaps take 5 minutes to post a reply detailing what the problem was and how you went about fixing it; however simple the solution was.

No-one's going to be bothered if you post a topic saying, for example, "Hey I got this problem, x, y, z" with a reply 4 hours later "d'oh I misspelled the function name!" That's far better than dozens of topics with the first post being "Edit: Solved it".

Yea I know. Thing is that I don't want to give out my code.. especially not when I was the one solving the problem. If someone of you would've helped me solve it, I would've kept it.. maybe it sounds silly :-)

Salathe 11-14-2008 11:05 AM

Yep, it does sound silly. You don't want to share buggy code and solutions to it? Instead preferring threads with just "solved it" which is useful to no-one; even yourself in a week's time when you forget what you did to solve it.

But I did post how I solved it.
