What are your must have Windows utilities to help you with development? For me it's Unlocker
This is about general Windows utilities, nothing specific to any language.
Hi, I have recently started learning SilverLight (and Web developement in general) and have been advised by a friend that SilverLight isn't Search engine friendly (because Silverlight isn't HTML). Is there any way of getting around this and getting my site onto the Search engine lists (without paying)?
(Any advise on getting my site on search engines lists would be greatly appreciated).
Thanks
or do I have to use 2 separate DbDataAdapters with single-table Selects and then use DataRelations?
like:
SELECT Persons.LastName, Persons.FirstName, Orders.OrderNo
FROM Persons
INNER JOIN Orders
ON Persons.P_Id=Orders.P_Id
ORDER BY Persons.LastName
I can't yet try this. I'm designing a xml config file schema for a general program so it would help a lot!

Hiii.
Is there any way to uniquely identify a particular exception from the general exception class.
i.e any property or method that retrieves a unique identifier that to identify a particular exception.
If more than one core on a processor is accessing the same memory address, will they thrash each other's caches or will some snooping protocol allow each to keep the data in L1-cache?
I am interested in a general answer as well as answers for specific processors. How many layers of cache are invalidated? Will accessing another address within the same cache-line invalidate the entire line? What can you do to alleviate these problems?
in general i will use expr inside shell scripts for doing arithmetic operations.
is there a way where we can come up with arithmetic operation in a shell script without using expr?
I have been doing Java, and C# for many years.
Starting on my first big Python program now.
I have written a few, very small, text processing scripts in Python years ago.
I would like to know what is the best, free, online Python tutorial for experienced programmers.
Python in general, but then also web programming with Python. Will be using Django.
Thanx much.
MacRuby 0.5 includes a ruby compiler built on LLVM called macrubyc.
Does anyone know if it would be possible to dynamically load gems from compiled code? Or compile the gems and link them in? Is this planned? Or how compiled code will be able to make use of gems in general.
I just started using C# and I've got a couple of issues.
I hook several controls to one event handler as in the following and I want to perform a slightly different action for each control:
Private Sub Button_Click(sender as Object, e as EventArgs) _
Handles button1.Click, Button2.Click
'do a general activity
Select CType(sender, Button).Name
Case button1.Name
'do something
Case button2.Name
'do something else
Case Else
'do the defalut action
End Select
End Sub
Is there any way of doing the above select statement in C# without having to use nested ifs?
There was an article here:

The first part of tut implemented this pattern with abstract classes. The second part shows an example with Interface class. But nothing in this article discusses why this pattern would rather use abstract or interface.
So what explanation (advantages of one over the other) would you give ? Not in general but for this precise pattern.
I'm wondering if its possible to configure Intellij's smart insert to suggest hamcrest and mockito dsl idioms when in test classes. Really I'm looking for something like eclipse's 'static favorites', so that when I hit ctrl + space or ctrl +shift +space the idioms are present.
In general is it possible to configure autocomplete/smart insert or the suggestions balloon for that matter. I've looked through the settings without much luck but could easily have overlooked something.
Hi All,
I have a general question about MS Fax Routing service in Server 2008.
Is it possible to have multiple extensions on the fax server.
For example if the fax number is 90081000, can there be an extension for 1001, 1002 etc etc.
Are we able to create these extension from within the MS Fax software and then route the different extensions to different email addresses?
Thanks
Regards

This is a further question based on this answer:

The general solution should work for all background colors and length/width ratio.
Does anyone use the PL/SQL Web Toolkit at all? We use it for internal reporting where I work.
However, does anyone have any experiences of it for producing client-facing websites? General advantages/disadvantages compared to other web languages, such as JSP, PHP etc

Hi,
Anyone knows the penetration rate (in %) for all North-American internet users with the Silverlight plugin installed? Been looking all around, but couldn't find any comprehensive numbers.
I'm looking for General Public penetration rates, not only within the dev community. Something close to Adobe's flash version penetration stats would be great.
I understand this is a subjective question, so I apologize if it needs to be closed, but I feel like it comes up often enough for me to wonder if there is a general preference for one form over the other.
Obviously, the best answer is "refactor the code so you don't need to test for falsehood" but sometimes there's no easy way to do so and the "else" branch is simply to continue processing. So when you must have an "if not false" construct, which is the preferred standard:
The not operator
if(!value)
Or the test for false
if(value == false)
Given that SSE 4.2 (Intel Core i7 & i5 parts) includes a CRC32 instruction, it seems reasonable to investigate whether one could build a faster general-purpose hash function. According to this only 16 bits of a CRC32 are evenly distributed. So what other transformation would one apply to overcome that?

Is it better to return a null value or throw an exception from an API method?
Returning a null requires ugly null checks all over, and cause a major quality problem if the return is not checked.
Throwing an exception forces the user to code for the faulty condition, but since Java exceptions bubble up and force the caller code to handle them, in general, using custom exceptions may be a bad idea (specifically in java).
Any sound and practical advice?
I have this
var result = general.GetInformation(int.Parse(ID), F_account, F_Info, Types);
this GetInformation is my Entity.Getinformation class.. when I am trying to assign result globly I am getting Cannot Assign to implicit typed local variable?
var result = ?
what should I assign in global?
thanks
I haven't coded in java for a long time, and after coding in C, I'm having issued organizing my code for OOP. More specifically I'm not sure when to create a new method, and when to create a new class, and when to just lump everything together.
Are there some general rules or guidelines on how it should be done?
Currently we use log4net and create a new folder (usually below C:) with write and create access rights for the worker process user. Is there perhaps a standard windows folder we should or could be using such as LOCALAPPDATA? I'm guessing that LOCALAPPDATA is a bad choice in the general case because IIS users tend to be non-interactive users and thus I don't think they have the usual user folder structrues available.
I'm still pretty new to Android and programming in general, and I can't seem to get the command line tools packaged with the Android SDK to work. I'm running Mac OSX and each time I try to run layoutopt, for example, the terminal returns, *-bash: cmd: command not found

Also, is it okay to have my SDK located in the Developer directory and my android project in some unrelated directory when using these tools?
I'm well into implementing a REST service (on a Windows CE platform if that matters) and I started out using IBM's general definitions of using POST for creating (INSERTs) and PUT for updating.
Now I've run across Sun's definitions which are exactly the opposite. So my question is, which is the "generally accepted" definition? Or is there even one?
I was reading this great article about Base SDK and Deployment targets and decided to try it out myself. The Deployment target seems to be buried in the Build settings, and not that easy to access compared to the Base SDK target (which is right there in the General tab of the project settings). To get to the Deployment settings now I have to Get Info, go to the Build tab, then search for "Deployment".
Is there a quick way to check and access the Deployment target in Xcode that I'm missing?
So is a decompiler really a thing that gives gives the source of a compiled/interpreted piece of code? Because to me that sounds impossible. How would you get the names of the functions, variables, classes, etc if it is compiled. Or am I misinterpreting the definition? How does it work? And what is the general principal behind making one?
