[hlcoders] Works in debug mode, does not it release mode.

-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Very weird indeed, I'm working on some VGUI code and for some reason it works in debug mode with the IDE attatched and fails to work in release mode, and for the life of me I am stumped for a soloution.

RE: [hlcoders] Works in debug mode, does not it release mode.

The third arg to ConvertANSIToUnicode() is the size of the output buffer in bytes. In this case you should use sizeof(unicode). This kind of code is the wrong pattern for VGUI2. It will perform really badly (because of the expensive operations you are running every time you paint) and makes your l

RE: [hlcoders] Works in debug mode, does not it release mode.

Reviving an old thread of a month ago since I'm still not certain what the implications are. So exactly why is it better to avoid complex Paint() methods? Methinks that eventually down the line, the vgui::ISurface calls are still being made, so it would make little difference that it is being cal

RE: [hlcoders] Works in debug mode, does not it release mode.

It is a code maintainence, performance and reuse issue. If you roll your own Paint() code you end up having to rewrite functionality in each paint call and you tend to make your layout logic code rather than data driven. Paint also gets called many times per second, it is easy to blow away performa

RE: [hlcoders] Works in debug mode, does not it release mode.

If you only call surface()->DrawTexturedRect() and the like in your Paint() function it won't defeat any VGUI2 functionality, but you will make your code hard to maintain. I would decompose the UI into the basic components, right a class to support each widget you need, put them together using a pa
