  • Most Astonishing Violation of the Principle of Least Astonishment

    - by Adam Liss
    The Principle of Least Astonishment suggests that a system should operate as a user would expect it to, as much as possible. In other words, it should never "astonish" the user with unexpected behavior. In your experience as the "astonishee," what types of systems are the worst offenders, and if you were the project manager, how would you correct the problem? Bonus if your answer describes how you'd retrain the developers!

  • pagesize and its ratio to 4096

    - by osgx
    Hello Are there systems, where minimal page of memory (pagesize) has a size not divisible by 2, or by 1024, 4096? Can it be 3000 or 3500? Will any posix program break, if pagesize will be not divisible by 1024?

  • How to print a web page without using the WebBrowser control

    - by Martin Wiboe
    Hi there, We are using a client application to print out grade sheets from an online application. This has been working flawlessly until the systems were upgraded to IE 8. I now receive this error (Access Denied): http://img707.imageshack.us/img707/5259/62270489.png Apparently, this is a known issue and it cannot be solved. How can I print HTML from a WinForms application without using the IE WebBrowser control? Thanks, Martin Wiboe

  • Why use Buildr instead of Ant or Maven?

    - by Scott Markwell
    http://buildr.apache.org/ http://ant.apache.org/ http://maven.apache.org/ What does another build tool targeted at Java really get me? Is it so hard to write a plugin using Java versus writing it in Ruby? If you use Buildr over another tool, why? Side question: How many build systems does the Apache foundation need targeted at Java?

  • How to implement Template Inheritance (like Django?) in PHP5

    - by anonymous coward
    Is there an existing good example, or how should one approach creating a basic Template system (thinking MVC) that supports "Template Inheritance" in PHP5? For an example of what I define as Template Inheritance, refer to the Django (a Python framework for web development) Templates documentation: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/templates/#id1 I especially like the idea of PHP itself being the "template language", though it's not necessarily a requirement. If listing existing solutions that implement "Template Inheritance", please try to form answers as individual systems, for the benefit of 'popular vote'.

  • How can I compile GCC as a static binary?

    - by CaCl
    How can I compile the GCC Compiler so that I can pull the entire thing over to another system and use the program? I don't mind pulling in other files as well, but is there a way to gather all the required system libs as well? The OS and Arch will remain constant across the different systems, but one may contain Slackware where the other contains Debian.

  • The usage of Cassandra's internal keyspace "system"

    - by knorv
    The default Cassandra systems keyspace system is present in all Cassandra installations. Judging from the output of the describe keyspace command the keyspace it is used partly for "persistent metadata for the local node" (LocationInfo) and partly for "hinted handoff data". What persistent metadata for the local node is stored in system/LocationInfo? What is the definition of hinted handoff in Cassandra terminology? What hinted handoff data is stored in the system keyspace?

  • Distributed sequence number generation?

    - by Jon
    I've generally implemented sequence number generation using database sequences in the past. e.g. Using Postgres SERIAL type http://neilconway.org/docs/sequences/ I'm curious though as how to generate sequence numbers for large distributed systems where there is no database. Does anybody have any experience or suggestions of a best practice for achieving sequence number generation in a thread safe manner for multiple clients?

  • Basic concepts in file system implementation

    - by darkie15
    I am a unclear about file system implementation. Specifically (Operating Systems - Tannenbaum (Edition 3), Page 275) states "The first word of each block is used as a pointer to the next one. The rest of block is data". Can anyone please explain to me the hierarchy of the division here? Like, each disk partition contains blocks, blocks contain words, and so on...

    - by ricky2002
    Hi Friends, I have a Active Directory controller on a Windows 2003 server. My users use Windows, Linux, Mac OS, Novell Operating system on client machines. I need to create a login script which is interoperable on all the client operating systems. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated on how to accomplish this.

  • Changing Name Associated With Past Commits In Mercurial

    - by Sean M
    A friend recently had the occasion for a legal name change, which made me wonder about how to cope with that in a development environment, especially in regards to source control. Their legal name changed, so naturally their login name and associated identity stuff changed. If they were a team member of mine, I'd like to change the record of their past commits to the project to be consistent with their new name. Is that possible in Mercurial? In other version control systems?

  • JXMapViewer change orientation to Heading Up

    - by Charlie
    I am trying to use JXMapViewer (from swingx-ws) with Open Street Maps. I was wondering if it would be possible to display the map tiles in the JXMapViewer based on heading up, rather than on North up. For example, the normal car GPS navigation systems let you do that. I've looked through the documentation and there doesn't seem to be a straightforward way to do this. Is there something else that accomplish this, besides JXMapViewer?
