Hi, I am learning the Opengl graphic programming at Eclipse. Can someone tell me the difference between GLUT application and SDL application, so that I can dig into either one of them? Tks.
I have a pfsense box that I'm trying to plan the configuration for. I am going to be load balancing two ISP's, each with their own /29 static IP subnet. The question I have is in relation to the way those IP's are associated with workstations on the local network.
Currently I have some workstations with local (192.168.1.0/29) IP addresses, and other more complicated workstation setups have their own public IP address. Some of the more complicated systems have a NAT 1:1 configuration where I forward a public IP address to a local IP address. Others however are directly on the ISP subnet and cannot be seen on our local network.
Is this configuration possible with pfsense? If so, what terms should I be looking through the documentation for?
Here is a simple/brief diagram of what I am trying to achieve.
Permissions are fine (inherited) and checking effective permissions everything is AOK.
As you can see i can make a file in the docs folder but not the pdf_docs subfolder.
The folder has a lot of files and is quite large- i wonder if i've reached a limit? I couldn't find anything on google.
Size: 51.0 GB (54,819,804,885 bytes)
Size on disk: 52.0 GB (55,925,719,040)
Contains 554,697 Files
EDIT I've just checked and i can delete files... and for every file i delete i appear to be able to create a new one. This definitely points toward a limit in terms of number of files?
If I have this text in vim, and my cursor is at the first character:
www.foo.com
I know that I can do:
cw to change up to the first period, because a word (lowercase w) ends at any punctuation OR white space
cW to change the whole address, because a Word (uppercase w) ends only at whitespace
Now, what if I have this:
stupid_method_name
and want to change it to this?
awesome_method_name
Both cw and cW change the whole thing, but I just want to change the fragment before the underscore.
My fallback technique is c/_, meaning 'change until you hit the next underscore in a search,' but for me, that also causes all underscores to be highlighted as search terms, which is slightly annoying.
Is there a specifier like w or W that doesn't include underscores?
"8,5,,1,4,7,,,,7,,1,9,3,6,,,8,6,3,9,,2,5,4,,,,,3,2,,,7,4,1,1,,4,,6,9,,5,,,,5,,,1,,6,3,,,6,5,,,,7,4,,1,7,6,,,,8,,5,,,7,1,,3,9,"
I'm doing a programming challenge where i need to parse this sequence into my sudoku script.
Need to get the above sequence into 8,5,0,1,4,7,0,0,0,7,0,1,9,3,6,0,0,8.........
I tried re but without success, help is appreciated, thanks.
Hello everyone,
I'm using the rails-settings gem, and I'm trying to understand how you add functions to ActiveRecord classes (I'm building my own library for card games), and I noticed that this gem uses one of the Meta-programming techniques to add the function to the ActiveRecord::Base class (I'm far from Meta-programming master in ruby, but I'm trying to learn it)
module RailsSettings
class Railtie < Rails::Railtie
initializer 'rails_settings.initialize', :after => :after_initialize do
Railtie.extend_active_record
end
end
class Railtie
def self.extend_active_record
ActiveRecord::Base.class_eval do
def self.has_settings
class_eval do
def settings
RailsSettings::ScopedSettings.for_thing(self)
end
scope :with_settings, :joins => "JOIN settings ON (settings.thing_id = #{self.table_name}.#{self.primary_key} AND
settings.thing_type = '#{self.base_class.name}')",
:select => "DISTINCT #{self.table_name}.*"
scope :with_settings_for, lambda { |var| { :joins => "JOIN settings ON (settings.thing_id = #{self.table_name}.#{self.primary_key} AND
settings.thing_type = '#{self.base_class.name}') AND
settings.var = '#{var}'" } }
scope :without_settings, :joins => "LEFT JOIN settings ON (settings.thing_id = #{self.table_name}.#{self.primary_key} AND
settings.thing_type = '#{self.base_class.name}')",
:conditions => 'settings.id IS NULL'
scope :without_settings_for, lambda { |var| { :joins => "LEFT JOIN settings ON (settings.thing_id = #{self.table_name}.#{self.primary_key} AND
settings.thing_type = '#{self.base_class.name}') AND
settings.var = '#{var}'",
:conditions => 'settings.id IS NULL' } }
end
end
end
end
end
end
What I don't understand is why he uses class_eval on ActiveRecord::Base, wasn't it easier if he just open the ActiveRecord::Base class and define the functions? Specially that there's nothing dynamic in the block (What I mean by dynamic is when you do class_eval or instance_eval on a string containing variables)
something like this:
module ActiveRecord
class Base
def self.has_settings
class_eval do
def settings
RailsSettings::ScopedSettings.for_thing(self)
end
scope :with_settings, :joins => "JOIN settings ON (settings.thing_id = #{self.table_name}.#{self.primary_key} AND
settings.thing_type = '#{self.base_class.name}')",
:select => "DISTINCT #{self.table_name}.*"
scope :with_settings_for, lambda { |var| { :joins => "JOIN settings ON (settings.thing_id = #{self.table_name}.#{self.primary_key} AND
settings.thing_type = '#{self.base_class.name}') AND
settings.var = '#{var}'" } }
scope :without_settings, :joins => "LEFT JOIN settings ON (settings.thing_id = #{self.table_name}.#{self.primary_key} AND
settings.thing_type = '#{self.base_class.name}')",
:conditions => 'settings.id IS NULL'
scope :without_settings_for, lambda { |var| { :joins => "LEFT JOIN settings ON (settings.thing_id = #{self.table_name}.#{self.primary_key} AND
settings.thing_type = '#{self.base_class.name}') AND
settings.var = '#{var}'",
:conditions => 'settings.id IS NULL' } }
end
end
end
end
I understand the second class_eval (before the def settings) is to define functions on the fly on every class that 'has_settings' right ? Same question here, I think he could use "def self.settings" instead of "class_eval.... def settings", no ?

I need to programatically encrypt a directory of files, like in a .zip or whatever. Preferably password protected obviously.
How can I accomplish this, and WHAT IS the BEST encryption way to do it, if applicable?
Programming language doesn't matter. I am dictioned in all syntax.
Hi All,
I am programming C on cygwin windows. After having done a bit of C programming and getting comfortable with the language, I wanted to look under the hood and see what the compiler is doing for the code that I write.
So I wrote down a code block containing switch case statements and converted them into assembly using:
gcc -S foo.c
Here is the C source:
switch(i)
{
case 1:
{
printf("Case 1\n");
break;
}
case 2:
{ printf("Case 2\n");
break;
}
case 3:
{
printf("Case 3\n");
break;
}
case 4:
{
printf("Case 4\n");
break;
}
case 5:
{
printf("Case 5\n");
break;
}
case 6:
{
printf("Case 6\n");
break;
}
case 7:
{
printf("Case 7\n");
break;
}
case 8:
{
printf("Case 8\n");
break;
}
case 9:
{
printf("Case 9\n");
break;
}
case 10:
{
printf("Case 10\n");
break;
}
default:
{
printf("Nothing\n");
break;
}
}
Now the resultant assembly for the same is:
movl $5, -4(%ebp)
cmpl $10, -4(%ebp)
ja L13
movl -4(%ebp), %eax
sall $2, %eax
movl L14(%eax), %eax
jmp *%eax
.section .rdata,"dr"
.align 4
L14:
.long L13
.long L3
.long L4
.long L5
.long L6
.long L7
.long L8
.long L9
.long L10
.long L11
.long L12
.text
L3:
movl $LC0, (%esp)
call _printf
jmp L2
L4:
movl $LC1, (%esp)
call _printf
jmp L2
L5:
movl $LC2, (%esp)
call _printf
jmp L2
L6:
movl $LC3, (%esp)
call _printf
jmp L2
L7:
movl $LC4, (%esp)
call _printf
jmp L2
L8:
movl $LC5, (%esp)
call _printf
jmp L2
L9:
movl $LC6, (%esp)
call _printf
jmp L2
L10:
movl $LC7, (%esp)
call _printf
jmp L2
L11:
movl $LC8, (%esp)
call _printf
jmp L2
L12:
movl $LC9, (%esp)
call _printf
jmp L2
L13:
movl $LC10, (%esp)
call _printf
L2:
Now, in the assembly, the code is first checking the last case (i.e. case 10) first. This is very strange. And then it is copying 'i' into 'eax' and doing things that are beyond me.
I have heard that the compiler implements some jump table for switch..case. Is it what this code is doing? Or what is it doing and why? Because in case of less number of cases,
the code is pretty similar to that generated for if...else ladder, but when number of cases increases, this unusual-looking implementation is seen.
Thanks in advance.
I'm trying to find out what a binormal is in the context of graphics programming but coming up short, I saw on a site that the binormal was being calculated as the corss between the normal and tangent (i.e. cross(normal, tangent)), is this the correct way to calculate a binormal?
Hi,
Is it possible to do Aspect Oriented Programming in Delphi? I would be interested in native support as well as third party solutions.
I don't have a specific problem I want to solve with AOP, but am simply interested in studying AOP.
Thanks, Miel Bronneberg.
For those of you who are into programming not just for the money. I would like to know which benefits you would like to have (or already have).
OK, maybe taking away the money factor will limit this question too much. I am surprised to see that most companies have a fixed set for their benefits package. Were you able to negotiate something new or just your salary? What things have you seen out there and/or value most?

Hi,
I'm trying to set up something on my network so that when users connect and try and use the internet they are re-directed to a locally-hosted terms and conditions and policy page. Once they click "accept" then they will be passed through to their homepage, otherwise if they decline then the window will close or show them an error message.
I've spent a while looking into this and am wondering if it's possible to do witout having to setup/add to a firewall. Otheriwse let me know what my options are and I can pass it on.
Many Thanks
Tom
Hello people,
I have three images,and , they are not square or rectangular in shape. They are just like face of anyone.
So,basically, my images are in the size 196x196 or anything like that, but complete square or rectangle with the face in the middle and transperant background in the rest of the portion.
Now, I want to remove the transperant background too and just keep the faces.
Don't know if this is possible and mind you, this isn't a programming question.
I'm not sure how important it is having a large reputation number, but then I'm also worried someone hacked into my account or something, since I don't see how else it would be possible to loose 500 points in a single day ( hopefully this non-programming related post won't cause another 500 drop :) ). Any idea why this happened?
thanx
Hi folks,
I am looking for a CMS that offers an API for managing the several content elements or pages.
The programming language(or other technical details) of the CMS doesn't matter - so don't hesitate give an answer:).
Best regards
I am running a number of java processes on a single Linux machine. From a memory and computing standpoint, everything is fine when things are static.
However, periodically we use a configuration management package up upgrade the jar or war files, and restart the java process.
The problem is, that is restarts them all relatively quickly, and so we get 10 or so java VMs restarting all at the same time (we use daemontools for the service stops/starts), which wreaks havoc on the machine, in terms of OOMs or just really slow. This is because it's spawning the JVM 10x at the same time.
Other than trying to stagger the startups, is there a smarter way of handling this? Maybe a sysctl tuning performance parameters, or a JVM parameter?
I'm almost ready to use Magento (which is built upon Zend Framework, which i know) and i'm looking for a good book covering setup, config, best practices, creating templates, development, etc.
Do you have any to recommend ?
I found some which look insteresting :
The Definitive Guide to Magento
Pro Magento Developer's Guide
Php Architect's Guide to E-commerce Programming With Magento
Any feedbacks on those one ?
I'm looking for a web application to manage tasks (not necessary programming-oriented) for a small team. It must be easy to setup and maintain. It must offer file upload and mail users in case of a change. There is hundred of solutions available but most are too complex for what we want or are not "stable" (not updated since a long time, not very well programmed). i was wondering if stack overflow's folks have some recommendations...
Hello,
I know it's not really a programming question but I don't know where to ask it.
Should i use a captcha in my sign up form ?
Facebook, twitter, foursquare, gowalla etc... don't use one (or not a visible one). Is there an invisible catpcha on theses sites ?
Thank you
Hi there
I'm programming against a Webservice that requires the amount of ticks (for the current time) (A single tick represents one hundred nanoseconds or one ten-millionth of a second) since 1.1.0001 (midnight).
what is the easiest way to get the amount of ticks from an NSDate Object?
thanks for your help
In his book programming in scala (Chapter 5 Section 5.9 Pg 93)
Odersky mentioned this expression "bills !*&^%~ code!
In the footnote on same page:
"By now you should be able to figure out that given this code,the Scala compiler would
invoke (bills.!*&^%~(code)).!()."
That's a bit to cryptic for me, could someone explain what's going on here?
Hi to all,
I need in IDE for Common Lisp, but at home i use linux and emacs + slime for lisp programming, but in my university i must use MS Windows, Emacs under Windows ... pull configuration file and the other I just do not do suits. Please advise a comfortable IDE for Common lisp that would have been a version for Windows and Linux and setup and installation would not cause difficulties.
Thank you.
Hi,
I would like to know if you have any good books that teach C++ programming without repeating basic stuff. In fact, I already well know Java and C#. I also have a basic knowledge in C and assembly, so I understand a little bit pointer arithmetic, manual memory management and heap based allocation. I was looking at O'Reilly's C++ in a Nutshell and was also wondering if this book would be a good choice.
Thank you
