• Why do Windows environment variable names use a special escape character?

  - by bde

  I am curious if there is any history behind why the ^ character is used to escape the special characters <, , |, &, and ^ in environment variable names in Windows instead the '\' character that is typically used to escape special characters. Please note that I realize there may be no reason for this, but I'd be interested to hear if there is a reason.

• Having another static method as the entry point of the java program?

  - by GK

  As we all know java program will start executing from the main method of the class. So was curious to know that is there any other way by which we can make another static method as the entry point, that is can we override this property of the JVM to start with some other method than main? many of you will ask why do you want to do this? so want to make it clear that its just a curiosity to know about. And if it is there then it might help in many ways

• Why does Go compile quickly?

  - by Evan Kroske

  I've Googled and poked around the Go website, but I can't seem to find an explanation for Go's extraordinary build times. Are they products of the language features (or lack thereof), a highly optimized compiler, or something else? I'm not trying to promote Go; I'm just curious.

• How to implement this UI

  - by Michael

  Just curious if the tab bar UI element in screenshots is some built in class or customized. If it is customized, then please give me a hint on what classes I might check to have something like that. The first screenshot is initial tab bar. When I tap on the last icon the tab bar smoothly(animated) resize itself as on second screenshot. If I press the edit button the icons are shaking(as on iPhone home) and I'm able to arrange them. first second

  - by ctyler1

  I have a friend who wrote code for a large array with 1,048,576 maximum elements. Everything runs fine when complied using ./make but but when using just ./ we get a segmentation fault. It's obviously not too crucial of a prob to solve. Nonetheless, I am very curious about it. if anyone has seen this or has any Ideas as why...

• RESTful resource not found. 404 or 204? Jersey returns 204 on null being returned from handler.

  - by jr

  If you are looking for /Resource/Id and that resource does not exist, I had always though that 404 was the appropriate response. However, when returning "null" from a Jersey handler, I get back a "204 No Content". I can likely work with either one, but am curious to others thoughts on this. To answer my own next question. To get jersey to return 404 you must throw an exception. if (a == null) throw new WebApplicationException(404);

Is it possible? Is this a job for LINQ?

• What is used instead of SendMessage and PostMessage in Java to handle inter-thread communications?

  - by Kieveli

  I'm from a WinAPI / C++ background, and I'm curious as to what the Java world uses in place of a threaded message loop in a worker thread to handle communications and interactions between threads. The idea is to use a message pump in both the worker thread, and the main thread, and have them posting messages back and forth. This solution is very WinAPI / C++ centric, and probably not the preferred method of achieving this goal in Java. What is the 'Java' way to do something like this?

• Percent of internet running Google Native Client?

  - by anon

  Anyone have numbers on how many machines / % of internet uses have Google Native Client? I'm curious about google NaCL as a platform: it seems to combine the best of the web (just a webpage, accessible on any machine) and desktop apps (OpenGL, C/C++ power). The only question is -- what percent of the world actually use it. Anyone have data on this? Thanks!

• Why do newbie programmers seem to shy away from libraries?

  - by Byron Whitlock

  I've noticed many questions on here from new programmers that can be solved using libraries. When a library is suggested, often times they respond "I don't want to use X library" Is it the learning curve? or ? Just curious!

• Is it good practice to use the XOR (^) operator in Java for boolean checks?

  - by Pete

  I personally like the 'exclusive or' operator when it makes sense in context of boolean checks because of its conciseness. I much prefer to write if (boolean1 ^ boolean2) { //do it } than if((boolean1 && !boolean2) || (boolean2 && !boolean1)) { //do it } but I often get confused looks (from other experienced java developers, not just the newbies), and sometimes comments about how it should only be used for bitwise operations. I'm curious as to the best practices others use around the '^' operator.

• vagrant box add: where does .box file get downloaded to?

  - by Calvin Cheng

  What actually happens to the .box file (which according to the docs is simply a vbox image in tar form, in a particular format) after the first command vagrant box add lucid32 http://files.vagrantup.com/lucid32.box is executed? I can't seem to find the filesystem location of lucid32.box after the download has successfully completed... I am aware it doesn't really matter as vagrant init lucid32 vagrant up vagrant ssh will get me into the vm irregardless. But I am curious where .box is located.

• Propel automatic form

  - by martin.malek

  Hi, I'm just starting with Propel and for more rapid development I'm curious if there is anything like automatic forms. Something like default administration in Django. I want to be able to output a form or to get all information I'll need. Even in the objects I didn't find all information which should be necessary to have everything for the form (name, type, length, related object, etc).

• Real world examples of Rx

  - by theburningmonk

  I've been playing around with the Reactive Extension for a little while now, but mostly limited to handling/composing user driven events within a WPF frontend. It's such a powerful, new way of doing async programming, and I'm curious as to what other people are doing with it, and where do you think it might be able to improve the way we're currently doing things?

• Where can I find a library that parses source code and is able to extract the scope of where your cursor is currently in the code?

  - by Anthony

  In SublimeText(2), when you press [ctrl + shift + p] (mac osx) you are shown a scope of where your caret/cursor is in the source code at the given moment e.g.: entity.name.tag.inline.any.html meta.tag.inline.any.html text.html.basic I am curious about what library or script is used to parse the document/file and create that scope string. A sidenote: Typing view.syntax_name(view.sel()[0].b) into Sublime's console will output the scope as well.

• What programming languages are good for statistics?

  - by Jason Baker

  I'm doing a bit more statistical analysis on some things lately, and I'm curious if there are any programming languages that are particularly good for this purpose. I know about R, but I'd kind of prefer something a bit more general-purpose (or is R pretty general-purpose?). What suggestions do you guys have? Are there any languages out there whose syntax/semantics are particularly oriented towards this? Or are there any languages that have exceptionally good libraries?
