    - by nathan gonzalez

  • What is the exact problem with multiple inheritance?

    - by Totophil
    I can see people asking all the time whether multiple inheritance should be included into the next version of C# or Java and C++ folks, who are fortunate enough to have this ability, say that this is like giving someone a rope to eventually hang themselves. What’s the matter with the multiple inheritance? Are there any concrete samples?

  • Release Process Improvements

    - by wallismark
    The process of creating a new build and releasing it to production is a critical step in the SDLC but it is often left as an afterthought and varies greatly from one company to the next. I'm hoping people will share improvements they have made to this process in their organisation so we can all takes steps to 'reduce the pain'. So the question is, specify one painful/time consuming part of your release process and what did you do to improve it? My example: at a previous employer all developers made database changes on one common development database. Then when it came to release time, we used Redgate's SQL Compare to generate a huge script from the differences between the Dev and QA databases. This works reasonably well but the problems with this approach are:- ALL changes in the Dev database are included, some of which may still be 'works in progress'. Sometimes developers made conflicting changes (that were not noticed until the release was in production) It was a time consuming and manual process to create and validate the script (by validate I mean, try to weed out issues like problem 1 and 2). When there were problems with the script (eg the order in which things were run such as creating a record which relies on a foreign key record which is in the script but not yet run) it took time to 'tweak' it so it ran smoothly. It's not an ideal scenario for Continuous Integration. So the solution was:- Enforce a policy of all changes to the database must be scripted. A naming convention was important for ensuring the correct running order of the scripts. Create/Use a tool to run the scripts at release time. Developers had their own copy of the database do develop against (so there was no more 'stepping on each others toes') The next release after we started this process was much faster with fewer problems, indeed the only problems found were due to people 'breaking the rules', eg not creating a script. Once the issues with releasing to QA were fixed, when it came time to release to production it was very smooth. We applied a few other changes (like introducing CI) but this was the most significant, overall we reduced release time from around 3 hours down to a max of 10-15 minutes.

  • What's the best way to store a MySQL database in source control?

    - by Marplesoft
    I am working on an application with a few other people and we'd like to store our MySQL database in source control. My thoughts are two have two files: one would be the create script for the tables, etc, and the other would be the inserts for our sample data. Is this a good approach? Also, what's the best way to export this information? Also, any suggestions for workflow in terms of ways to speed up the process of making changes, exporting, updating, etc.

  • Bang Notation and Dot Notation in VBA and MS-Access

    - by Nitrodist
    While perusing an application that I'm documenting, I've run across some examples of bang notation in accessing object properties/methods, etc. and in other places they use dot notation for what seems like the same purpose. Is there a difference or preference to using one or the other? Some simple googling only reveals limited information on the subject with some people actually using it in opposite cases. Perhaps there is a coding standards section from MS somewhere that indicates the method of madness?

  • Is a degree in Industrial engineering helpful for programmers

    - by Shailesh Tainwala
    Hi, I am currently pursuing my MS in Software Engineering. I am considering the option of doing a part time programme in Industrial Engineering as most of the courses (Operations Research, Accountancy, Business Process etc) are those that I do not have any knowledge in. Is there a requirement in the industry for people with such qualifications? My long term career goal is to manage software projects that enable clients to increase productivity.

  • How significant is .NET 3.5 SP1 for WCF/REST?

    - by Edward Tanguay
    I just worked through a book on WCF and was surprised that it didn't even mention REST at all. Was REST an afterthought for WCF that was added in .NET 3.5 SP1 and hence not baked in well or is it well integrated? I assume that Silverlight and XBAPs can consume WCF with no problem or do they have some limitation due to their sandbox environments? I've been reading that some people are having problems getting WCF to play well with XBAP and I would assume there are similar problems with Silverlight.

  • Good Java graph algorithm library?

    - by Nick Fortescue
    Has anyone had good experiences with any Java libraries for Graph algorithms. I've tried JGraph and found it ok, and there are a lot of different ones in google. Are there any that people are actually using successfully in production code or would recommend? To clarify, I'm not looking for a library that produces graphs/charts, I'm looking for one that helps with Graph algorithms, eg minimum spanning tree, Kruskal's algorithm Nodes, Edges, etc. Ideally one with some good algorithms/data structures in a nice Java OO API.

  • User signup in REST API

    - by Bhaktavatsalam Nallanthighal
    I have a PHP web application that I want to make accessible across multiple clients. So, I'm trying to make it more like an API. My question is: How would I handle the creation of new users using the API? If I have a URL like http://example.com/user/signup which takes new user details and creates a new user via a POST request, wouldn't it be a problem that people can misuse it and create fake users easily?

  • Web-Based User Help System for Silverlight

    - by Mark Roxberry
    I've been googling and binging all morning to find a suitable solution for web-based user help. We've got Sandcastle for dev help, but I'm wondering what people are using for user help for a Silverlight project? I'm interested in options from rolling our own to a comprehensive help doc system. (And is HTML Help dead? the GUI still has Merlin the wizard from days gone by).

  • sql to xml using linq - nested collections

    - by nelsonwebs
    I have a table of data that looks something like this. name, hour, price1, price2, price3, price4, price5 fred, 3, 12.5, 13.5, 14, 15, 16 dave, 6, 8, 12, 18, 20.2, 25 fred, 6, 10, 11, 14, 15, 19.7 This table needs to be output to an xml file that looks like this. <timeCost> <person name="fred"> <time hour="5"> <cost price="12.5" /> <cost price="13.5" /> <cost price="14" /> <cost price="15" /> <cost price="16" /> </time> <time hour="6"> <cost price="10" /> <cost price="11" /> <cost price="14" /> <cost price="15" /> <cost price="19.7" /> </time> </person> <person name="dave"> <time hour="6"> <cost price="8" /> <cost price="12" /> <cost price="18" /> <cost price="20.2" /> <cost price="25" /> </time> </person> </timeCost> I have a linq query to get the data from SQL something like this. // initialize data context var people = from p in dc.people orderby p.name, p.hour select p; However, I'm having trouble writing the xml out using linq (csharp). Specifically, the problem is I don't know how to deal with having multiple time nodes under each name node (nested loops/collections). How can this be done? This is a sql 08 ent db if it matters to anyone.

  • MySQL Select names with last names ending with certain letter

    - by Brian
    I have a MySQL database with a field Name which contains full names. To select all people with last names ending in a particular letter, let's say A for this example, I use the following query: SELECT * FROM db WHERE Name LIKE '% A%'. However, this also selects users who have a middle name starting with A. Is there anyway to alter this query so that only a last name ending in A will be selected?

  • Storing third-party libraries in source control

    - by graham.reeds
    Should libraries that the application relies on be stored in source control? One part of me says it should and another part say's no. It feels wrong to add a 20mb library that dwarfs the entire app just because you rely on a couple of functions from it (albeit rather heavily). Should you just store the jar/dll or maybe even the distributed zip/tar of the project? What do other people do?

  • Does resharper make you lazy?

    - by ForeverDebugging
    I've been looking at using resharper and from the reviews I've seen, people who start using it never go back. I'm wondering if using resharper helps you pick up errors when looking at code without resharper, or does it decrease this ability becaues you get use to relying on resharper to identify problems?
