  • stanza like application for iPad

    - by Suresh Varma
    Hi, I want to try to create an eReader for the Ipad like Stanza but I can't really find any open source project or help in the web, I don't really know how to begin and how to do it. If someone have idea, know how to create an eReader, display content page by page, how to use epub lib on Iphone (objective-c) Thanks in advance for any help.. Happy coding Edit: Since the question is too big the simple thing i want to know is how to let epub file run on my iPad. Or if you have any link or tutorial which teaches how to use epub file with iPad or iPhone would be a great help. Thanks

  • Onshore work methods V Offshore Supplier work methods - how to strike a balance?

    - by LadyCoconut
    Any advice on the best way to strike a balance between the work methods of an offshore supplier and the work methods of a new onshore team? We have an offshore supplier with about 2 years who have their own working practices and methods. I was bought in as the first onshore developer for my company with the view to vetting the code that comes in and putting together some best practices. Now from what I've seen there are lots of holes in their process (e.g. estimation, planning, code reviews, coding standards from about 10 years ago, no concept of mocking, refactoring etc). I need to be seen as a problem solver and not a problem creator but also I need to try and be somewhat forceful of what they are doing needs improving and at the end of the day they are a supplier. I would appreciate any advice. Thanks.

  • Game Programming - GUIs

    - by Spencer
    I've been coding for a while now and would like to start looking into programming games. I know the industry's standard language is C++, for 3D graphics the main choice is between Direct 3D and OpenGL, but what is the most widely used GUI framework? I'm currently on a Mac so if native Windows API is the answer, then what is the cross platform choice? To be clear, I'm not looking for people's favourites but simply what the common or standard game industry's choice is so that I can learn and familiarize myself with it. Thanks, Spencer

  • How does Alpha Five Version 10 Rate for Web App Development

    - by Gary B2312321321
    I came across this RDMS via the advert on stackoverflow. Seems to be in the vein of MS Access / Filemaker / Apex database development tools but focused on web based applications. It quotes rave reviews from EWeek and a favourable mention from Dr Dobbs regarding its ability to create AJAX web applications without coding. The Eweek review, apparently written by an ASP.NET programmer, goes on to proclaim the ease at which apps can be extended using the inbuilt XBasic language and how custom javascript can easily be added without wading through code. Has anyone here built a web app with Alpha 5? Does anyone have comments on the development process, the speed of it or limitations they encountered along the way? To me it seems Oracle APEX comes closest to the feature set, has anyone programmed in both and have any comments?

  • One repository per table or one per functional section?

    - by Ian Roke
    I am using ASP.NET MVC 2 and C# with Entity Framework 4.0 to code against a normalised SQL Server database. A part of my database structure contains a table of entries with foreign keys relating to sub-tables containing drivers, cars, engines, chassis etc. I am following the Nerd Dinner tutorial which sets up a repository for dinners which is fair enough. Do I do one for drivers, one for engines, one for cars and so on or do I do one big one for entries? Which is the best practise for this type of work? I am still new to this method of coding.

  • Table and Column names causing problems

    - by craig
    I have an issue when the T4 linq templates generate the classes for my MySql db using subsonic 3. It looks like one of our table names "operator" is causing problems in the Context.cs generated class. In the following line of code in Context.cs Visual Studio sees <operator> as a c# operator and generates a compilation error of "Type expected" public Query<operator> operators { get; set; } Is there anyway I can work around this without having to rename my database table and column names? For example hard coding something in Settings.ttinclude to use or map different names to specific db tables and columns?

  • How would you fool your boss, if you needed to? [closed]

    - by Starx
    Even as a programmer myself, I am not always in mood of coding, so I think of a way to fool my boss and GET GOING..... (if you know what I mean). Like one time I wanted to go home early, I said to my boss, "Sir, I have a check up, I need to meet my doctor at 12:00 pm today". And I was out of there Well, I am doing this, so I thought others might also have done something like this or wanted to do something like this. So, How about sharing them?

  • How to start recognizing design patterns as you are programming?

    - by Jon Erickson
    I have general academic knowledge of the various design patterns that are discussed in GoF and Head First Design Patterns, but I have a difficult time applying them to the code that I am writing. A goal for me this year is to be able to recognize design patterns that are emerging from the code that I write. Obviously this comes with experience (I have about 2 years in the field), but my question is how can I jumpstart my ability to recognize design patterns as I am coding, maybe a suggestion as to what patterns are easiest to start applying in client-server applications (in my case mainly c# webforms with ms sql db's, but this could definitely be language agnostic).

  • Seeking to zoom in on an image, slowly, on page load, using Jquery

    - by Heath Waller
    Hello, I am looking to give the impression of zooming in from a large image to a detailed area of that image, over time, when the page loads - using javascript (jquery, preferably). I have been given the following flash site as a reference (action happens just after title fades in): http://www.delicatessennyc.com/ Not sure if this is even possible. I know I could switch out the large image for a smaller one - but my boss is hellbent of achieving this flash-type action using javascript. Please note, I've searched the plugins and I've not found anything like what I'm looking for. And I'm so new to this type of coding that cobbling it together from scratch seems daunting. Thank you all so much.

  • How do I set the next available custom color in the ColorDialog?

    - by Hannah
    I'm currently coding in VB.net. A user places the cursor in a table cell and clicks on "Table Background Color" to edit the current background colour. Currently I have been able to detect the current colour (for instance a light blue) and set that colour in the ColorDialog (Colour swatches are correct and RGB values are correct). What I would like to do is enable the user to click on the "Add to Custom Colors" to save the colour. Problem is, it sets the first square in the custom colours area (which happens to already be filled in with another custom colour), rather than finding the next square that is white and set it there instead. Is this possible? If the user selects a new custom colour square when they first load the ColorDialog, the current colour (light blue) disappears and the colour swatches and RGB values are set as white. Thanks

  • how to get the sql connection

    - by sweetsecret
    FS_Setting is a VB class which has all the details of the connections ie: Public Class FS_Setting Public Function Get_RS_Connection() As SqlConnection Try Get_RS_Connection = New SqlConnection("Data Source=***********;User ID=sa;Password=*****;database=*********") Catch ex As System.Exception Throw New System.Exception("Get_RS_Connection Error:" + ex.Message) End Try End Function I need to call the function Get_RS_Connection() in a different class instead of getting the connection all the way again and hard coding.... I want to call the above class where the SQL connection is declared Namespace FS_Library Public Class FS_Errorlog Inherits FS_BaseClass Try **cn = New SqlConnection("Data Source=***********;UserID=sa;Password=*****;database=*********")** cmd = New SqlCommand("dbo.FS_ErrorLog_ADD", cn) cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure cmd.CommandTimeout = Convert.ToInt32(ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("Command_Timeout")) Me.AddParameter(cmd, "@p_tableKey", SqlDbType.Int, tableKey) Me.AddParameter(cmd, "@p_FunctionCode", SqlDbType.Int, FunctionCode) Me.AddParameter(cmd, "@p_TableAlias", SqlDbType.VarChar, TableAlias) Me.AddParameter(cmd, "@p_ValidationCode", SqlDbType.Int, ValidationCode) If Filename = "" Then Filename = "N/A" End If Me.AddParameter(cmd, "@p_FileName", SqlDbType.VarChar, Filename) Me.AddParameter(cmd, "@p_Message", SqlDbType.VarChar, Message) Me.AddParameter(cmd, "@p_CreateUser", SqlDbType.VarChar, userID) Me.AddParameter(cmd, "@p_UserActionID", SqlDbType.UniqueIdentifier, UserActionID) cn.Open()

  • How to hide a Mono application on the OSX Dock

    - by Chris
    I have a Mono application that should not show on the dock, but will occasionally show a window. I want neither menu bar nor dock icon to show for this application. I have my application wrapped in an app bundle, and my info.plist file has the LSUIElement set to "1". This does not seem to be hiding my application from the Dock. I have tried also calling osascript with the following info in a Process.Start: osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to set visible of process "myapp" to false' This returns a System Event error code: -10006. Thus far, I've had no luck finding out what that means. I've also tried all the standard Hide() and Visibility = false stuff inside Mono. Anyone found a workaround for this, or have an idea a direction I can look in? For the most part, working in Mono has been straightforward .Net coding, but this has me stumped.

  • http(/* argument here */) How is this Object (Http) being used without an explicit or implicit meth

    - by Randin
    In the example for coding with Json using Databinder Dispatch Nathan uses an Object (Http) without a method, shown here: import dispatch._ import Http._ Http("http://www.fox.com/dollhouse/" >>> System.out ) How is he doing this? Thank you for all of the answers unfortunatly I was not specific enough... It looks like it is simply passing an argument to a constructor of class or companion object Http. In another example, I've seen another form: http = new Http http(/* argument here */) Is this valid Scala? I guess it must be, because the author is a Scala expert. But it makes no sense to me. Actions are usually performed by invoking methods on objects, whether explicitly as object.doSomething() or implicitly as object = something (using the apply() method underneath the syntactic sugar). All I can think of is that a constructor is being used to do something in addition to constructing an object. In other words, it is having side effects, such as in this case going off and doing something on the web.

  • Better type safety in Java collections

    - by Paul Tomblin
    In my java coding, I often end up with several Map<String,Map<String,foo>> or Map<String,List<String>> and then I have trouble remembering which String is which key. I comment the declaration with //Map<capabiltyId,Map<groupId,foo>> or //Map<groupId,List<capabilityId>, but it's not the greatest solution. If String wasn't final, I would make new classes CapabilityId extends String and GroupId extends String, but I can't. Is there a better way to keep track of which thing is the key and maybe have the compiler enforce it?

  • how do i add two delegates to a ui element at run time?

    - by Michael Xu
    Hi everyone, im trying to implement some behaviors when a mapview element scrolls... by coding a delegate for the scrollview inside of a mapview. so, right now, i got a pointer to the scroll view used by the map view in my code. however, i wish to set the delegate of this scroll view inside the map view, but the issue is that the mapview already sets up a default delegate for this scroll view inside the map view. can i make my delegate implement all of the messages of the protocol, explicitly sending them to the mapview's default delegate while also implementing my own behaviors? how else can i go about adding my own delegate behavior, to an already existing default delegate....? thanks everyone, michael

  • Setting a Silverlight textbox control's width relatively

    - by John K.
    Hello, I tried searching on stackoverflow for an answer to my question but couldn't seem to find anything relevant. Since I'm relatively new to Silverlight, I'm not even sure if this is possible, but I am trying to figure out if it is possible to set a Silverlight textbox control's width value proportionally to it's immediate parent container? It would be nice to avoid hard coding a width value. Say you want to place a textbox control inside a horizontally aligned StackPanel control and have it's width always dynamically adjusted to be 80% of the total width of the StackPanel. Is this possible to do declaratively in your xaml markup, or will I need to resort to some codebehind attached to some event handler to accomplish this? fyi, I am currently using Visual Web Developer Express 2008 to write my silverlight code. thanks in advance, John

  • How to create a backpropagation neural network in neurondonet?

    - by Suraj Prakash
    I am doing stock market prediction using ANNs in c#.net. I am using NeuronDotNet for the neural part. I have to give eight inputs to the network, with a hidden layer consisting 8 nodes and a single node output layer. Can anybody please give me some coding ideas for this???? This project was not a AI course assignment, but my major project. I have studied about the stocks and found various factors that affected the future value of stock of a company. Now I have to use these factors as input to the neural network. I am not getting into how to implement these factors in the neural network. I have just decided to use those eight factors as eight nodes in the input layer but things are going complex. My concern is to use these factors as input and train the neural network for output as next day's stock value. What major things should I have to care about??

  • android ImageView scaling to fit another View

    - by Nick
    I have a relative layout that comprises a TextView and an ImageView: <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" <TextView android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"/> <ImageView android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_alignParentRight="true" android:adjustViewBounds="true"/> </RelativeLayout> It looks as follows: What I want to achieve is: It means that I want my ImageView to scale to fit the TextView by height. Can it be done in xml, without java-coding? If I could write something like android:layout_height="match_that_TextView" it would have solved this issue, but it's impossible I guess.

  • C# Operator Overloading post-fix increment

    - by Victor
    I'm coding a date class and am having trouble with the post-fix increment (the prefix increment seems fine). Here is the sample code: public class date { int year, month, day; public date(int d, int m, int y) { day = d; month = m; year = y; } static public date operator ++(date d) { return d.Next(d); } } The method "Next(date d)" takes a date and returns tomorrows date (I left it out for brevity). I'm to young in C# to understand why the prefix is fine but postfix increment does nothing. But remember in C++ we would have to have two methods instead of just one - for prefix and postfix increments. Also no errors or warnings on compile.

  • Google Chrome Extensions - Online Packaging

    - by Amar Ravikumar
    I am coding something like an online PHP editor. So, now I have this option to port the web applications created using the editor as Chrome extensions (popup). It works okay save the fact that the files created need to be downloaded, packaged (using Chrome or cmd) and re-uploaded. I do have this provision but I find it annoying myself to go through this routine everytime I need to make an update to my application. So, I just want to know if there is some way we can package Chrome extensions from the web itself? Edit: I know this can be done using Ruby or even Python. Want to know if the same can be done in PHP. I tried in vain.

  • SVN Working Copy to Different Branch Merge Without Commit to Working Copy Branch

    - by Q Boiler
    If a working copy (local copy) was created from a branch, lets call it A. Coding was done in branch A, but branch A was "Closed" to commits, and branch b was opened. How do I merge my working copy changes into Branch B and commit to branch B, without commiting my changes to branch A first. Trunk - branch A. I checked out branch A and made changes. Branch A was closed to commits. New Branch created from branch A. branch A - branch B. I would like to commit my working copy changes (currently pointing at Branch A into branch B without commiting to Branch A)
