hey i need to get ring0 to use hardware in C++ right, so how do i get it? Whats the code for it? any guides or readings on this?

thanks,
adam

Uhh.... I think that if you run code in ring 0, then you are running in kernel space, which is usually a no-no unless you are writing a device driver or an operating system.

I'm guessing that whatever you want to do can be accomplished through a safe means via the OS. What exactly do you want to do?

On a modern OS ring 0 requires a kernel mode driver. If you really need this you'll have to find info on writing drivers for your OS of choice. Windows you can find the DDK (driver dev kit) on MS' website.

no i just had a question thats all. thanks for ur help!! alright but i got a nother question: What the stl in c++ cuz i have been looking for alot of guides on the net for like advanced programming and i was wondering what the STL is.

thanks!!

Standard Template Library. IIRC, its a set of headers that define some more advanced data types than the basic primitives provided by C/C++, and most people use it when they need those types.

Also provides some handy algorithms such as sorting and searching etc.
All of STL works with any type of data (almost).
