MIL-STD-130N A Basic Explanation Of UID

The U.S. Department Of Defense has issued the mandate that all equipment and properties that are issued, stored, produced, or stocked by the DOD should be marked for identification. There are a lot of rules, and standards that go along with this mandate.

These standards are comprised of criteria from many government and non-government publications to act as a general guideline to describe the governmental UID requirements when fulfilling a contract. In the events of conflicting references, this standard will always take priority.

There are also many things that are excluded from the list of items to be so marked that are covered by other regulation or are not subject to the Item Unique Identification (UID). For example a cell phone has an electronic serial number, or a vehicle's VIN. A more complete list can be found in the MIL-STD-130N section 1.3

In the case of items that the DOD requires an UID there are many regulations governing the proper marking. These regulations state that the marks should be applied to a metal or stiff plastic plate that will be affixed to the item to be marked. In some cases the mark can be applied directly to the item, providing the requirements can be met.

The UID must be placed in a manner so as to provide permanency for the expected life of the item, and be visible and easy to read during normal operation, if possible. Machine readable information (MRI) is preferred, but in the event it is not possible, the human readable information has requirements in the mandate as well.

Naturally, there are exceptions to the UID regulations. Commercial off the shelf items (COTS) clearly marked by a commercial identification may not be subject to the UID standards if there is no problem in the identification of the item.

This is only touching on the DOD's UID regulations. There are many more complicated rules that could not be covered here.

(C++) How to create a custom namespace?

using namespace std; lets you type in "cout" instead of "std::cout"

Lets say I want to make my own custom namespace to replace something like:

std::cout << "The " << variable << "output was successfully adjusted." << std::endl;

This is just a example so please don't talk about other methods for this case, I'm just using it as a general example. So using my custom namespace, maybe I could put all of that code into something like "mil" for it to look like:

using namespace cst; (the name of the custom namespace)

cst::mil(variable)

Is there a way for me to write a custom namespace to do that kind of thing? thnx

Yes.

First, you'll need 1 or more header files to define all the functionality in your cst namespace.

So start with cst.h:
namespace cst
{
  void mil(int variable);
}

Any code that #includes cst.h will know that there is a namespace out there named cst, and that there is one function in that namespace named mil.

Now you need to implement the namespace, so create a cst.cpp file:
#include

namespace cst
{
  void mil(int variable)
  {
    std::cout << "The " << variable << "output was successfully adjusted." << std::endl;
  }
}

Then, all you have to do is call it from some other module:

#include "cst.h"

mainorsomeotherfunc()
{
  cst::mil(100);
}

Or:
#include "cst.h"
using namespace cst;
mainorsomeotherfunc()
{
  mil(100);
}

You aren't limited to 1 .h or .cpp file. Your cst namespace can be defined across multiple files (std certainly is).
