Best Answer

1. open word processing software. (Notepad or wordpad)

2. Write the desired function for the header.

3. Save it with .h as extension. Like "myheader.h"

4. Run cpp.

5. It should be like this... #include "myheader.h" 1. A header file is not any different to the compiler than ordinary code

2. Its just a convenient way to have commonly "included" code

3. It is primarily used for prototypes, not actual code, such as declaring an API

4. Be care with redeclarations. The #ifdef / #endif pragmas can help

5. The location of "user defined" headers is different than system headers

6. They are normally in the build directory, whereas system headers are elsewhere

How can you create a headerfile in a c?

Create the header file as a .h file in the same way you create a source file, .c and place it in the same directory as the .c files. To incorporate it, use the... #include "my_header_file.h" ... directive. Note that there are double quotes instead of greater/less signs. This tells the compiler to look first in the source directory.


What is a header node in c plus plus?

A header node, or head node, is a node that marks the start of a series of nodes, usually as part of a list or queue structure. The head node is often a sentinal that holds no data of its own. Sentinels are used to simplify algorithms by ensuring that a list can never be empty, even when it has no data.


In a header file whether functions are declared or defined?

Ideally, functions should only be declared in a header and defined in a translation unit (source file) that includes the header. However, trivial functions are often defined in a header as they are usually good candidates for inline expansion, but you must remember to declare the function inline. Often it is better to forward declare inline functions so that maintainers are not distracted by the implementation details which can be placed towards the end of the header, out of the way. However, a definition is also a declaration, so forward declaring an inline function is not a requirement unless there is a cyclic dependency issue where a forward declaration is necessary to break the cycle.


What is the standard file header for an executable file?

There is no such standard since different architectures support different executable formats while some support multiple formats. For instance, Windows 32-bit supports MZ (DOS) and PE format, while 64-bit also supports PE32+, all of which have an EXE file extension. Windows also supports the older COM (DOS) format. But, as with most file extensions, the extension is simply a method of organising files by type and for associating file types to specific applications, but they tell you nothing about the file itself. Only by physically loading the file and examining its header (if it has one) can the operating system determine its actual type. In other words, renaming a COM file to an EXE file doesn't actually change the file type; it has to be completely recompiled from source. The Apple Mac doesn't use extensions in the same way Windows does (many Mac files have no extension at all), but machine code executables are in the Preferred Executable Format (PEF), also known as Code Fragment Manager (CFM) files. Linux (and Unix) typically use the Executable and Link Format (ELF). Although each format obviously has its own standard header, there is no standard header that applies to all executables across all architectures.


Source code of xml?

there is no source code, xml is not a programming language, its a markup language for which you create your own tags, the basic xml syntax is <xml> to start an xml file, and </xml> to end the xml file.

How do you begin a page of C plus plus coding?

It depends whether you are writing a header or a source file. Generally you will begin with the header, and this should always begin with a header guard: // file: my_header.hpp #ifndef _MY_HEADER_HPP_ #define _MY_HEADER_HPP_ //... // header code goes here // ... #endif _MY_HEADER_HPP_ Although the opening header guard should always be placed first, it's a good idea to precede the header guard with a multi-line comment briefly explaining the purpose of the header and its contents, as well as the author's contact details and any required copyright notifications. The header code will include any other required headers as well as any required forward declarations, followed by its own declarations. You may also include definitions for those declarations, however its generally best to keep implementation details separate from the declarations. The only exceptions are when declaring class templates, which must be completely defined in the header, or when defining implicit inline functions. The corresponding source file must include the header file, along with any other header files for its forward declarations, before defining the implementations of the header's undefined declarations. Other files that require those definitions need only include the corresponding header file.


Which dialog box allows you to add headers and footers to a document?

In Word 2000-2003, use View>Header. As soon as you insert something in the header or footer, it remains part of your document. In Word 2007-2010, choose the Insert tab of the Ribbon, find the Header & Footer group and click on Header or Footer. You will see a selection of pre-formatted header/footers that you can apply, or you can choose Edit Header or Edit Footer to create your own.

Can I create my own template in SiteBuilder?

Yes. If you intend to build many web pages using the same basic colors and formatting, you can save time by creating your own template. To create your own template, simply create and save the page you would like to use as your template. Be sure to save this page with a file name you will remember, like "template.html." Now, whenever you need to create a new web page based on this template, simply open your saved page, make whatever changes you would like to the page, and save it with a different file name by selecting Save Page As... from the File menu.
