Man I can't believe this. I'm still mucking around with OFX servers and it drives me absolutely crazy how some these servers are just so unbelievably misconfigured. I've recently hit three different 3 major brokerages which fail HTTP validation with bad or corrupt certificates at least according to…

The dynamic type in C# 4.0 is a welcome addition to the language. One thing I’ve been doing a lot with it is to remove explicit Reflection code that’s often necessary when you ‘dynamically’ need to walk and object hierarchy. In the past I’ve had a number of ReflectionUtils that used string based expressions…

I’ve written quite a bit about Visual FoxPro interoperating with .NET in the past both for ASP.NET interacting with Visual FoxPro COM objects as well as Visual FoxPro calling into .NET code via COM Interop. COM Interop with Visual FoxPro has a number of problems but one of them at least got a lot…

So if I’m working in a folder called c:\temp\templates\ and I want to find a relative path for c:\temp\templates\subdir\test.txt I want to receive back subdir\test…

The definition of AudioBufferList looks weird to me… i guess my C is not so good
struct AudioBufferList
{
UInt32 mNumberBuffers;
AudioBuffer mBuffers[kVariableLengthArray];
};
typedef struct AudioBufferList AudioBufferList;
Why
AudioBuffer mBuffers[kVariableLengthArray];
and not
AudioBuffer…

Hi I am trying to use C to implement a simple struct:
2 boxes, each contains different number of particles; the exact number of particles are passed in main().
I wrote the following code:
typedef struct Particle{
float x;
float y;
float vx;
float vy;
}Particle;
typedef struct Box{

I read about unions the other day( today ) and tried the sample functions that came with them. Easy enough, but the result was clear and utter garbage.
The first example is:
union Test
{
int Int;
struct
{
char byte1;
char byte2;
char byte3;
char byte4;
