  • Best Ergonomic trackball (finger-operated, with scroll wheel) for programmer

    - by Clay Nichols
    We programmers are at great risk of RSI. After 10 years, I was having shoulder problems and switched to a trackball, which helped, then switched to my left hand which helped even more. I'm looking for a good finger-operated trackball with a scroll wheel. (I do not like the ones where you control the ball w/ your thumb. My thumb isn't as dexterous). I also want to have a scroll wheel. I currently use a Logitech Marble Mouse but the scrolling implementation is very poor. EDIT: I just tried the Marble Scroll (free software that provides better scrolling. Works great. Another option is the KatMouse addon (which I've not tried) for trackballs. I hear the old Logitech Trackman was very good, but is no longer available. Anyone have experience with the Marble Mouse (and the above fixes) ? Or any suggestions of a good trackball.

  • TortoiseSVN shows red ! decorator for folder, but no files within it are marked with !

    - by Clay Nichols
    I'm new to SVN. I'm using the latest version (svn 1.6.9, TortoiseSVN 1.6.7.18415). Some folders who a red exclamation point next to them. If I drill down, I find a sub folder with ! as well but no files within that are marked with ! (all are either a green checkmark or no icon (because they are Ignored (like .exe files) . What I've tried: Cleanup {reported success} Add {reports nothing to add. All files either under version control has been ignored per the .ignore property. Commit {succeeds} SVNupdate {succeeds} Restarted computer. Some oddities: -I had a bunch of CVS folders (these files were copied over from a PC that was using CVS but we don't need that version history so I didn't import it into SVN). I deleted those CVS\ folders and they are showing up (as unversioned files) when I CheckIn. Any ideas?

  • How to record sound from a microphone in VB6?

    - by Clay Nichols
    We've been recording sound for over a decade using what seems like a very clunky method using the Winmm.dll and the MCIsendString. I've read that this doesn't set the recording quality value correctly (not sure if that article was ever true or is still true). I was wondering if there is any better way to record sound.

  • Softrware Licensing / Registration component/framework?

    - by Clay Nichols
    We use a home-grown Registration System for our software but I'd like to update it fixing a number of things including adding the ability to remotely activate/deactivate it (to facilitate Saas). Feel free to suggest any good (in your opinion) VB6- compatible option. I can check out whether it meets our other criteria below. Required Features: Activate multiple programs (Ok if it generates a separate code for each one) Works with VB6 and VB.net. A VB6-compatible DLL should be fine. Still supported (nice to have but not absolutely required Compatible with Windows 2000 through 7. Nice-to-have features (but not required) * Work without internet access * Works through a firewall (this may be a tough one) Any suggestions?

  • Getting jQuery datepicker to attach to a TextBox within a ListView

    - by Clay
    I am using the jQuery Datepicker without any problem for TextBox controls that are non-templated. However, I am unable to get the datepicker to work with a TextBox that is in an EditItemTemplate of a ListView control. My latest attempt is to get a handle on this textbox by CSS class name "DateControl", any ideas? <asp:ListVIew id="lvTest" runat="server"> <LayoutTemplate>...</LayoutTemplate> <ItemTemplate>...</ItemTemplate> <EditItemTemplate> <tr> <td> <asp:TextBox ID="txtExpReceiveDate" runat="server" Text='<%#Eval("exp_receive_date","{0:dd-MMM-yy}") %>' CssClass="DateControl" /> </td> </tr> </EditTemplate> </asp:ListView> <script type="text/javascript" language="javascript"> $(document).ready(function () { $('DateControl').datepick({ dateFormat: 'M-dd-yyyy' }); }); </script>

  • Tortoise SVN does not give option to "Add to SVN"

    - by Clay Nichols
    I've created an SVN repository and added folders and added contents and Committed. No problem. But when go to add a new folder (the others were on the P:\ drive, now I want to add our website which is on the C:\ drive) but Tortoise doesn't give me the option of Adding a folder. I have no idea why. Help file shows the instructions I'd expect ("right click on the folder you want to add and choose +Add...") but Add... isn't in the menu. This is TortoiseSVN v 1.6.7.18415 (I'm about to update it but I was able to add folders before so I don't think this is just a bug, I think maybe I'm missing something obvious).

  • How come my red border is not wrapping around my text div and my side bar div

    - by Clay
    How come my red border is not wrapping around my text div and my side bar div. Here's my code: CSS: body{ background-color: #d7d7d7; color: #666666; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; } div#header { background-color: #323232; height: 140px; width: 950px; } div#maincontainer { background-color: #d7d7d7; width: 950px; height: auto; margin-top: 5px; border: 1px solid red; } div#maintextcontainer{ //background-color: #333333; width: 640px; //margin-right: 10px; margin: 1px; float: left; color: black; } div#maintextcontainer h2{ color: #4f4f4f; } div#sidebarcontainer { //background-color: #333333; width: 300px; float: left; color: black; margin: 1px; } div#footer{ background-color: #323232; width: 950px; margin-top: 5px; clear: left; } div#global{ width: 950px; margin: auto; } HTML: <div id="global"> <div id="header"> This is the header div</div> <div id="maincontainer"> <div id="maintextcontainer">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

  • Why does jQuery fadeOut not work inside this setInterval loop?

    - by Clay McClure
    I'm trying to load random items into a div every few seconds, with a nice fadeOut/fadeIn transition between each load. Here's the code: <html> <body> <div id="item"></div> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.3.2/jquery.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> // Load a random item var item = $('#item'); function load_item() { item.fadeOut(5000, function() { item.load('http://dynamic.xkcd.com/comic/random/ #middleContent img', null, function() { item.fadeIn(5000); }); }); }; // Load initial featured item load_item(); // Schedule repeated loading setInterval(load_item, 15000); </script> </body> </html> This works fine the first time through, but on subsequent calls to load_item, the fadeOut() seems to stop working. It doesn't actually fade the #item div out, but jumps immediately into the callback function, ignoring the 5000 delay. What am I doing wrong?

  • Would I really want to return the minimum date?

    - by Clay Shannon
    An old work colleague used to quote his father about tools, "You have to be smarter than it." In the code below, Resharper is telling me, "Value assigned is not used in any execution path" (pointing to the first line). If I accept its offer of help, dt is not assigned a value ("today"). Is this a case where "I have to be smarter than it" and ignore their warning, or is this a case where the tool is smarter than me, and I'm just not understanding it? My take on the situation is that if the if statement fails, the current date is returned (the default value I want), but if I acquiesce to Resharper's "demands" it would return the default value for Datetime, which is the minimum date, which I assume is something like 7/4/1776 or 1/1/0000 or so. DateTime dt = DateTime.Now; if (!(DateTime.TryParse(substr, out dt))) { using (var dtpDlgForm = new ReturnDate("Please select the Date that the file was created:")) { if (dtpDlgForm.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK) { dt = dtpDlgForm.ReturnVal; } } } return dt;

  • ASP.NET Master Page + pageLoad() = kills jquery?

    - by Clay Angelly
    In my MasterPage, I have a ScriptManager that has a ScriptReference to my jquery.js file. This has always worked with no problems, all content pages that utilize jquery work fine. Recently, I added the following javascript script block at the end of my MasterPage: function pageLoad(sender, args) { } By simply adding the above pageLoad method, no jquery code is executed from any of my content pages. Why would just having a pageLoad in the Master Page have this effect? Thanks in advance for any insight.

  • When I Add <DIV> Bottom Scroll Bar Appears, Even Though It Is Not Greater Than The Page Width

    - by Clay Dempsey
    I have searched for this with no answer. My page loads up perfectly when I load the header, navigation and then center image...all 3 different divs. However I have more I need to add and the div tags change the size of the page even though the css I'm using isn't larger than the page. I have no idea what is happening. Here's the code page where everything is fine: http://www.thehdmgroup.com/midwaymissionary/test.php When I add the below div tag with the below css I get a bottom scrollbar on the page and I don't know why. Can someone please explain it to me? #middleTextBox1 { position: absolute; top:507px; left:172px; width:180px; height:180px; background-color:#411b42; border: 1px solid #434343; padding:10px; color: #FFFFFF; font-size: 10px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; } <div id="middleTextBox1"> <h3 align="center">Mission:</h3> Words </div> I really have no idea why this is happening, could someone please help me out? Thanks for your time.

  • How do I prevent an https response from throwing an AuthenticationException with Fiddler running?

    - by Ichabod Clay
    Relative newbie to C# here :) I'm currently creating a web link scraper and having issues with the responses I'm getting when trying to login to the website via my program. I'm trying to use Fiddler to see if my program is sending the proper data, but my program is throwing an AuthenticationException when trying to get a response from the site with Fiddler running. The requests are being sent over HTTPS and Fiddler's certificate is the cause of the excepting being thrown. My question is, what can I implement into my program to have it disregard the certificate authentication? As far as my program goes, the requests and responses are being handled by HttpWebRequest and HttpWebResponse classes.

  • Why can I not use a "constant" within a switch statement within scope?

    - by Clay Shannon
    With this code: public partial class Form1 : Form { private static readonly int TABCONTROL_BASICINFO = 0; private static readonly int TABCONTROL_CONFIDENTIALINFO = 1; private static readonly int TABCONTROL_ROLESANDSECURITY = 2; private static readonly int TABCONTROL_INACTIVEINFO = 3; . . . int ActiveTabPage = tabControlWorker.SelectedIndex; switch (ActiveTabPage) { case TABCONTROL_BASICINFO: if (currentNode == "NodeBuckingham") { } else if (currentNode == "NodeNamath") { } else if (currentNode == "NodeParsons") { } else { } break; ...I have to replace "TABCONTROL_BASICINFO" with "0", or I get, "A constant value is expected" Heavens to Murgatroyd! Can't it look up and see that TABCONTROL_BASICINFO is 0?

  • Are folks using the VB6 "Common Controls Replacement Project" controls? Any caveats or showstoppers?

    - by Clay Nichols
    I'm considering using the VB6 Common Controls Replacement Project controls and would like to see what other's experiences with them are. Specifically: What do you need to distribute with them? (I assume just the .OCX file) Do I need to register the .ocx file or just include in the app directory? Do these controls depend on any other ocx's? (There is mention, for example in the Progress Bar replacement that it is using COMCTL32.DLL but the .DEP file does not list that DLL. Are they at least as robust as the controls they replace?

  • Do you ever make a code change and just test rather than trying to fully understand the change you'v

    - by Clay Nichols
    I'm working in a 12 year old code base which I have been the only developer on. There are times that I'll make a a very small change based on an intuition (or quantum leap in logic ;-). Usually I try to deconstruct that change and make sure I read thoroughly the code. However sometimes, (more and more these days) I just test and make sure it had the effect I wanted. (I'm a pretty thorough tester and would test even if I read the code). This works for me and we have surprisingly (compared to most software I see) few bugs escape into the wild. But what I'm wondering is whether this is just the "art" side of coding. Yes, in an ideal world you would exhaustively read every bit of code that your change modified, but I in practice, if you're confident that it only affects a small section of code, is this a common practice? I can obviously see where this would be a disastrous approach in the hands of a poor programmer. But then, I've seen programmers who ostensibly are reading the code and break stuff left and right (in their own code based which only they have been working on).

  • Any benefits of using Windows Communication Foundation/ Web Services vs. a simple .aspx page for s

    - by Clay Nichols
    I'm working on a VB6 app that will do some very simple communication with a web server (passing value and getting back an anwer. Low bandwith and infrequent use). Someone suggested using WCF or Web Services. I'm wondering what the advantages are vs. just posting to an ASPX page like: Myserver.com/Functions.ASP?FunctionName=GetValue?UserName=BubbGump and returning some simple, easy to parse text, like one value per line.

  • strstr whole string match

    - by clay
    I'm trying to match the whole string and not just part of it. For instance, if the needle is 2, I would like to match just the string 2 and not 20, 02, or 22 or anything related. I'm using strstr as: #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { FILE *file; char l[BUFSIZ]; int linenumber = 1; char term[6] = "2"; file = fopen(argv[1], "r"); if(file != NULL) { while(fgets(l, sizeof(l), file)){ if(strstr(l, term) != NULL) { printf("Search Term Found at %d!\n", linenumber); } ++linenumber; } } else { perror(argv[1]); } fclose(file); return 0; }

  • VB6 code for Reading/Writing Windows Registry values

    - by Clay Nichols
    I'm looking for a good example of reading and writing to the Windows Registry using VB6. Yes, I know there are lots of mediocre examples. I spent an hour googling and testing. Some were incredibly complex, others had only some of the functions, and almost none of it had been vetted in any way (voted on). Since Stack Overflow is intended to the canonical location for answers to programming questions, it seems reasonable to post it here.

  • How to undelete from the SVN Repository

    - by Clay Nichols
    I accidentally deleted a major folder inside of the Tortoise-SVN Repro Browser. The working folder is unaffected. What is the recommended way to reverse that? Do I just Revert back to the previous version? Or do I need to do a Checkout to that previous version into a new folder and delete the old folder?
