Sprong Edit Meaning

1.

A five-character sequence of Ccode: Left-square-bracket, zero, right-square-bracket, hyphen, greater-than.

Sprongs are a specific programming trick for Cand C++that can be used to quickly access a struct when you have a handle (a pointer-to-a-pointer) to it. Instead of "(**handle)mber" you can use the equivalent code "handle 0]->member". The somewhat unusual construct " 0]->" is pronounced "sprong", and brings to mind the sound of a spring. The word may have been coined by Maf Vosburgh.

The use of sprongs was common among Macintosh computer programmers circa System 7 in the mid-1990s because of the large number of handles used in the Mac OS API.

Without sprongs: (** (** GetMainDevice() ).gdPMap ).pixelSize

With sprongs: GetMainDevice() 0]-> gdPMap 0]-> pixelSize
