Comment on Using GoDaddy API for Dynamic DNS by Steve https://blog.stevedoria.net/20210927/using-godaddy-api-for-dynamic-dns#comment-70039 Mon, 27 Sep 2021 18:19:45 +0000 http://blog.stevedoria.net/?p=88#comment-70039 There is a slight security risk when using the GoDaddy API for implementing dynamic DNS. GoDaddy does not provide refined access control for API keys. If the server running the script featured in this blog post is compromised, it is possible for attackers to make significant changes to the associated GoDaddy account, such as buying domains or transferring domain ownership.

If account security risk is unacceptable, I recommend implementing dynamic DNS with Hurricane Electric.

Comment on Differences between C++ Classes and Structs by Mohamed Lamine Allal https://blog.stevedoria.net/20050913/differences-between-cpp-classes-and-structs/comment-page-8#comment-69161 Sat, 05 Jun 2021 21:24:09 +0000 http://blog.stevedoria.net/?p=21#comment-69161 Run this and it will works all cool!

Struct support data visiblity and (hiding) (encapsulation) just like class! Also the same for methods!

It was clearly stated by many comments! the difference is in the the visibility defaulting only one default to private the other to public!

Run the code bellow! Tested with gcc!

================
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main(int argv, char * argc[]) {
    struct {
        private:
            bool _iamSuperPrivate = true;
            void _sayHallo() {
                cout << "Hallo mein Bruder!" << endl;
            }
        public:
            string helloAddress = "";
            void sayHellow() {
                cout << "Hellow!" << helloAddress != "") {
                    cout << helloAddress << _sayHallo();
            }
            bool isSuperPrivateWorking() {
                return this->_iamSuperPrivate;
            }
    } testStruct;

    testStruct.helloAddress = "my Friend!";
    testStruct.sayHellow();

    if (testStruct.isSuperPrivateWorking()) {
        cout << "Super private is working all well!" << endl;
    } else {
        cout << "Super private not working LOL !!!" << endl;
    }

    return 0;
}
