I know NAnt sees frequent use (well, I always use it for my CI builds) but there has been no new official release since December 2007. Is the project receiving active development any more or is it dead-pooled? It worries me that if I carry on using it, and it stops tracking the latest version of .NET, I'll eventually be left with a massive job when it comes to upgrading systems to a version of the framework that it can't build.
Has everyone else gone over to some other tool like MSBuild these days?
Hello everybody.
My current career is in software testing, but I feel that I am wasting my time, maybe because I don't know the future path of this career, and where I will arrive in the future if I continue in this career. And I don't know how can I develop myself in this career. Can I have my own job in this field? Please give me good suggestions and opinion.
Many thanks.
One of job interview questions on C pointer here is the following: what is null pointer assignment error?
I've googled for a while and don't see any reasonable explanation. What is that? Trying to write through a null pointer? Something architecture- or environment-specific? What exactly is that error?
I have an application that will accept URLs from the built in web browser via the "Share page" menu item. I'm using the send intent and it works just fine. However, I'd like to accept a URL and process it in the background without bringing my application to the front. I don't want the user to have to actually leave the web browser. It will notify the user it has finished processing the URL with a Toast message. I'm just not sure what type of activity should be used for this.
A good example of this behavior is the "Read Later" instapaper application in the android market. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Does anybody know a clean PHP-based solution that can backup remote web sites using FTP?
Must haves:
Recursive FTP backups
Possible to run through a cron job
Easy to configure (easy adding of multiple sites)
Local storage of backup files is sufficient
Would be nice:
Backed up sites are stored as zip files
A nice interface to manage things
Provides notification when backup has succeeded or failed
Does incremental backups
Does MySQL Database backups
I need this to be PHP (or Perl) based because it's going to be used on shared hosting packages that do not allow usage of the standard GNU/Linux tools available.
I'm tossing around a few ideas for travel search engines and I'm wondering how these sites get their source data. Do they scrape all the content from airline homepages? This seems like an enormous job given the number of airlines etc out there.
Is there some API or web service standard that every airline conforms too?
Am I going to have to negotiate access to the data APIs for every airline I wish to index?
In WPF, I've three objects exposing the same DependencyProperty (let's say it's an integer). I want all three property values to remain synchronized, i.e. that whenever the int value changes in an object, this value is propagated to the two other objects. I think of multibinding to do the job, but I don't know how to detect which object changed, thus which value should be used and propagated to the other objects.
I want to write a map/reduce job to select a number of random samples from a large dataset based on a row level condition. I want to minimize the number of intermediate keys.
Pseudocode:
for each row
if row matches condition
put the row.id in the bucket if the bucket is not already large enough
Have you done something like this? Is there any well known algorithm?
A sample containing sequential rows is also good enough.
Thanks.
I see iframe/p3p trick is the most popular one around, but I personally don't like it because javascript + hidden fields + frame really make it look like a hack job. I've also come across a master-slave approach using web service to communicate (http://www.15seconds.com/issue/971108.htm) and it seems better because it's transparent to the user and it's robust against different browsers.
Is there any better approaches, and what are the pros and cons of each?
I have a job opportunity. They use WinDev. I did some research about it and, although it seams pretty prometting, the website claims that it's used by only 100,000 developpers.
Have you worked with this language? What's your thoughts?
I am using PHP and Mysql

My website will be using only OpenID for authentication. I'd like to pull user details down via attribute exchange, but attribute exchange seems to have caused a lot of grief for StackOverflow.
What is the current state of play in the industry? Does any OpenID provider do a decent job of attribute exchange?
Should I just steer away from OpenID attribute exchange altogether?
How can I deal with inconsistent support for functionality?
I have a script file for parsing through a SQLite database. I now need to create a CRON job that will download and unzip said database from a third-party (already hosting as SQLITE). I understand this can be done using WGET and UNZIP, but given Heroku's read only file system, is this possible entirely in memory? Thanks.
Is there a way to pre-populate a user's documents list with server-generated log files? A way to offer any files at a given path? Is this a job for plugins or native to some settings config?
thx

Google Latitude does a great job with this, i'm trying to access this information as well.. it seems like their service has a much better way of finding the lat long on phones that don't have the html5 capability..
Thank you in advance.
I have scheduled a CRON job to run every 4 hours which needs to gather user accounts information.
Now I want to speed things up and to split the work between several processes and to use one process to update the MySQL DB with the retrieved data from other processes.
In JAVA I know that there is a thread pool which I can dedicate some threads to accomplish some work.
how do I do it in PHP?
Any advice is welcome.
Thank
I develop websites using PHP and MySQL. What resources would a seasoned web developer recommend that would cover server-specific information relevant to the job of a developer.
If it helps, I work specifically with an Apache server (through my hosting company).
While I look for a job, I'd like to do something useful with my time. I have a feeling there must be schools or charities or other worthy organisations that could use some of my time, but I've no idea how to go about finding them. Is there a marketplace for this kind of thing? I live in the UK.

i have users from all timezones, and i want to send out alerts at around 8AM in each users respective timezone.
i need a python script that runs every hour [in a cron job] and i need to find out at which timezone it is 8AM right now, and i can use that info to select the users that have to receive the alerts.
how do i go about doing this? there seems to be gmt+14 to gmt-12 that is 27 timezones, and there are only 24 hours in a day!
I'm working on a python based server product where a user can install WSGI-based python apps on their server. I can enforce any restriction on the application structure or format to make this easy.
The user workflow would be:
browse an app market, showing a list of WSGIpython apps
select an app and choose "install"
the app would be downloaded from a remote server to the user's server
the http server would then have to be configured to start serving that application from the app's id, ex. a blog app with an id of "blog" at "/blog/", so all requests below /blog/ would be seen as root by the blog application.
Any suggestions on how to set something like this up?
Holler if my flow of consciousness lost you ;)
These web articles uses separate Save() and Update() methods in the repository pattern.
I am using repository pattern.
How can I write a SaveOrUpdate() method in Entity Framework with the help of ObjectContext and in Linq-To-SQL with the help of DataContext?
That is, how can I write a single method that shall do both save and update job?
