Isn't this what they tried to do with Symbian?

Let's hope they've learned some lessons and can apply them here. QT is one of the nicest C++ frameworks I've come across and it would be sad to see it's future mis-managed.

The operation timed out when attempting to contact www.yorktown.navy.mil.

Looks like they still haven't got over their NT toothing problems.

I think that might be the joke!?

I'm not sure ato[i|f] is the best answer either, consider the following code:

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main( void )
{
printf( "atoi( \"1\" ) = %d\n", atoi("1") );
printf( "atoi( \"-1\" ) = %d\n", atoi( "-1" ) );
printf( "atoi( \"0\" ) = %d\n", atoi( "0" ) );
printf( "atoi( \"foo\" ) = %d\n", atoi( "foo" ) );
}

and the resulting output:

atoi( "1" ) = 1
atoi( "-1" ) = -1
atoi( "0" ) = 0
atoi( "foo" ) = 0

Not exactly what you want. btw if I had a better idea I'd mention it. Maybe fgets and then sscanf? But then you'd still have to worry about numerical overflows, so maybe not.
