The Java SE platform allows you to adapt (localize) your applications to various languages and regions easily, cost-effectively, and without having to re-engineer the software.
Representing geographical locations within an application, the design of the underlying data model suggests two clear options (or maybe more?).
One table with a self referencing parent_id column
uk - london (london parent id = UK id)
or two tables, with a one to many relationship using a foreign key.
My preference is for one self-refercing table…
A regional directory is developed for sites that caters to audience in a specific geographical regions. In a regional directory, the categories can be classified into countries, states, cities, and towns.
A comprehensive Internet security report by Zscaler found that Web servers hosted in South America harbored a much higher ratio of malware-infected servers than other regions.
Recently, I was working on a Silverlight application and one of the pages contained a graphic. One of the requirements was that the graphic should contain clickable regions (Hotspots) and display a dynamic navigation menu when clicked on. An image that contains one or more Hotspots or clickable areas is called an image map. I have put together a…
I want to split a texture into variously shaped pieces with libgdx, like the pieces of a puzzle game. TextureRegion.split() is not an option, as it splits into equally sized rectangular texture regions.
The "Similar Questions" section here is helpful (particularly this question How do I break an image into 6 or 8 pieces of different shapes?),…
<b>LWN.net:</b> "DVD authoring can be a deceptively tricky business. Though it can take some time to convert source video to the proper MPEG format, the technical requirements for the various regions are standardized, so it is at least possible to configure the conversion tools and do it right, once and for all."
We are expanding our network of webservers on EC2 to a number of different regions and currently use master/slave replication. We've found that over the past couple of months our slave has stopped replicating a number of times which required us to clear the db and initialise the replication again.
As we're now looking to have servers in 3…
Sorry guys, first a gripe about my neighbor's WiFi access point (it is related): they totally hog the center nine 2.4 GHz channels (3-11), centered right at 7! I know the outer regions of the signal don't make as much of a difference, and technically they're running channels 5 & 9. Anyway, their signal is clearly interfering with mine,…

I am developing a TSQL query in SSMS 2008 R2. I am trying to develop this query to identify one record / client. Because some of these values are NULL, I am currently doing LEFT JOINS on most of the tables. But the problem with the LEFT JOINs is that now I get 1 record for some clients.
But if I change this to INNER…

As the trend to digitize all paper assets continues, so does the push to digitize all the processes around these assets. One such process is redaction - removing sensitive or classified information from documents. While for some this may conjure up thoughts of old CIA documents filled with nothing but blacked out…
We’ve just released Version 2.0.1 of Oracle E-Business Suite SDK for Java. This new version has several great enhancements added after I wrote about the first version of the SDK in 2010. In addition to the AppsDataSource and Java Authentication and Authorization Service (JAAS) features that are in the…
Nevrona Designs' Rave Reports is a Report Engine for use by Embarcadero's Delphi IDE.
This is what I call the Rave Endless Loop bug. In Rave Reports
version 6.5.0 (VCL10) that comes bundled with Delphi 2006, there is a
nortorious bug that plagues many Rave report developers. If you have a
non-empty dataset, and…
I love Visual Studio about 90% of the time, but that last 10% it is such a PITA it makes me want to launch my monitor off the desk.
My latest annoyances:
It won't remember my toolbar settings. I don't want any toolbars, ever. Quit popping open the CSS editor or XML editor or text editor everytime I open a…
I've created a small Prism application (using MEF) with the following parts:
- Infrastructure project, that contains a global file of region names.
- Main project, that has 2 buttons to load other modules.
- ModulesInterfaces project, where I've defined an IDataAccess interface for my DataAccess module.
-…
I am learning Prism, and I have a question on the best approach for the main Shell.
Assuming the Shell has 2 regions: Toolbar, Main.
The toolbar has 3 main buttons that each represent a different On Demand Load Module.
Each of these modules currently register themselves as fitting in the Main Region.

In Vista and later, if an app becomes unresponsive, the Desktop Window Manager is able to handle redrawing it when necessary (move a window over it, drag it around, etc.) because it has kept a pixel buffer for it. Windows also tries to detect when an app has become unresponsive after some timeout, and…
Let's say I have 2 interfaces defined like so:
public interface ISkuItem
{
public string SKU { get; set; }
}
public interface ICartItem : ISkuItem
{
public int Quantity { get; set; }
public bool IsDiscountable { get; set; }
}
When I go to implement the interface in C#, VS produces the…
At work we need two 'streams' of template. The first are general layout templates, like the ones already available in the MX through CS5 packages (except we'd have our own customised ones). The second are more granular objects, some of which are functional.
In both cases, I don't want Jimmy to be…
Hey all
Basically for my final project at university, I'm developing a vehicle license plate detection application. Now I consider myself an intermediate programmer, however my mathematics knowledge lacks anything above secondary school, therefore producing detection formulae is basically…
I have a huge global array of structures. Some regions of the array are tied to individual threads and those threads can modify their regions of the array without having to use critical sections. But there is one special region of the array which all threads may have access to. The code…
I am working on what at best could be considered a "primitive" golf game, where after a certain bit of randomness is introduced I need to play out a hole of golf. The hole is static and I am not concerned about the UI aspect as I just have to draw a line on a graphic of the hole after…
