That is taking the parameter by reference. So in the first case you are taking a pointer parameter by reference so whatever modification you do to the value of the pointer is reflected outside the function. Second is the simlilar to first one with the only difference being that it is a double pointer. See … Read more
At worst, your lecturer is wrong. At best, he was simplifying terminology, and confusing you in the process. This is reasonably commonplace in software education, unfortunately. The truth is, many books get this wrong as well; the array is not “passed” at all, either “by pointer” or “by reference”. In fact, because arrays cannot be passed by … Read more
When I do this: Everything works great. However, when I make it a vector of references instead: I get horrible errors like error C2528: ‘pointer’ : pointer to reference is illegal I want to put a bunch of references to structs into a vector, so that I don’t have to meddle with pointers. Why is … Read more
Create the hobby table similarly to this:
References are not pointers. 8.3.2/1: A reference shall be initialized to refer to a valid object or function. [Note: in particular, a null reference cannot exist in a well-defined program, because the only way to create such a reference would be to bind it to the “object” obtained by dereferencing a null pointer, which causes … Read more
You should remove the & (ampersand) symbol, so that line 4 will look like this: This is because ADONewConnection already returns an object by reference. As per documentation, assigning the result of a reference to object by reference results in an E_DEPRECATED message as of PHP 5.3.0
Restart Eclipse (unfortunately) and the problem will go away.

Right-click the assembly reference in the solution explorer, properties, disable the “Specific Version” option.
My understanding is that this is actually very simple: Javascript is always pass by value, but when a variable refers to an object (including arrays), the “value” is a reference to the object. Changing the value of a variable never changes the underlying primitive or object, it just points the variable to a new primitive or object. However, changing … Read more
