another thing, I have no idea what you are doing, ¿what does your program do?
¿what's its input/output? ¿how does flex relate?
provide a little context to your issue.

WTF? Are you serious? If you ask on multiple websites then at a minimum you need to mention it (providing the links) so that someone doesn't spend time answering a question that is already answered elsewhere.

Thought experiment.
There exists 10 forums, each with 1 helper, and 1 newbie joins to ask a question.
Thus, 10 helpers in total help 10 newbies quickly as it's all done in parallel.
Everybody is happy. All newbies got an answer, and helpers didn't waste their time.

There exists 10 forums, each with 1 helper, and 10 newbies join all the forums to ask a question.
Each helper now faces 10 questions, an awful lot of extra work, and a silly guessing game as to whether it's even worth answering the question because it's well known that the newbies cross-post like crazy. Some questions get answered more than once, and others are ignored completely.
Almost nobody is happy with the outcome.
The mentality of cross-posters being:
1. I'm a special snowflake worthy and demanding of your attention.
2. This is an urgent problem, so I maximise my chances by spamming forums.

So, I cross-link whenever I see it for the benefit of the regular helpers. At least then it's possible to quickly decide whether it's worth the time investment in replying. There's no point spending effort if there is a perfectly decent response elsewhere.
