Hack Fest at Devoxx

- by Yolande Poirier

On November 11th and 12th, Devoxx attendees will get the chance to build a Java embedded application onsite. During the Raspberry Pi & Leap Motion hands-on labs on Monday and Tuesday mornings, you will learn about Raspberry Pi development with Java embedded using Leap Motion and other sensors. The afternoons are hacking time on a project of your choice. You can get your inspiration from existing projects. You can also use their project source code and improve on already developed applications. The goal is for you to create something fun and innovative in only a couple of days, no matter your experience in embedded systems. We provide you with equipment like the Raspberry Pi, sensors, and Leap Motion. Thanks to Stephan Janssen for lending us 10 Leap Motions for the Hack Fest. Raspberry Pi and sensors are pre-configured. You will access the sensors via a web address. You can build a project alone if you want. We also give the opportunity to brainstorm ideas with other attendees and maybe build something more complex. You will get one-on-one help from top-notch coaches. Vinicius Senger has tons of experience with Java and the Raspberry. He runs Java embedded challenges and give training year round. Geert Bevin contributed to many open source projects and his latest venture is with the Leap Motion. Bruno Borges's expertise is in connecting backend logic with great interfaces. Yara Senger is a Java Champion and a great Java embedded mentor. Don't miss this opportunity! This is your chance to transform your idea into a Raspberry Pi or a Leap Motion application.

Why do some open source projects do not allow to report issues in a public issue tracker?

- by linquize

Why do some open source projects do not allow to report issues in a public issue tracker? Those projects requires the issues to be reported via email, and the issues may be forwarded to people in mailing list. Users may repeatedly report the same issue if there is no public issue tracker, as they have no easy way to know what have been reported before. The project team members need to spend extra time answering those repeated issues. Some projects do have a public issue tracker, but the issues are still reported through email and they are posted only by the project team only after filtering. It does not allow anyone to report directly in issue tracker. (example: SVN) Such arrangement is not transparent nor open, which I think it violates the philosophy of open source. And it is outdated.

Testing the load factor in my lab

- by Ami Winter

I am a system admin in a lab, I have ~90 computers in the lab and I want to check the load factor on them.. meaning, to check how many people are working on the computers hourly.. To see if I need to buy more computers or not. I am looking for a way to build a script to check if a computer is logged on or not.. (0 for log off - 1 for log on) After I will have this data, I know how to build a script to build me the graphs. All the computers are linked via a domain and most of them have windows XP (few windows 7) I'll be happy to get some help. Amihay

Shallow Copy vs DeepCopy in C#.NET

Hope below example helps to understand the difference. Please drop a comment if any doubts. using System; using System.IO; using System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary; namespace ShallowCopyVsDeepCopy { class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { var e1 = new Emp { EmpNo = 10, EmpName = "Smith", Department = new Dep { DeptNo = 100, DeptName = "Finance" } }; var e2 = e1.ShallowClone(); e1.Department.DeptName = "Accounts"; Console.WriteLine(e2.Department.DeptName); var e3 = new Emp { EmpNo = 10, EmpName = "Smith", Department = new Dep { DeptNo = 100, DeptName = "Finance" } }; var e4 = e3.DeepClone(); e3.Department.DeptName = "Accounts"; Console.WriteLine(e4.Department.DeptName); } } [Serializable] class Dep { public int DeptNo { get; set; } public String DeptName { get; set; } } [Serializable] class Emp { public int EmpNo { get; set; } public String EmpName { get; set; } public Dep Department { get; set; } public Emp ShallowClone() { return (Emp)this.MemberwiseClone(); } public Emp DeepClone() { MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(); BinaryFormatter bf = new BinaryFormatter(); bf.Serialize(ms, this); ms.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin); object copy = bf.Deserialize(ms); ms.Close(); return copy as Emp; } } } span.fullpost {display:none;}

Fixed Bid vs. T&M – Take 2

- by AjarnMark

One of my most popular blog entries of all time is my Contracting Tips: Fixed Bid vs. T&M post from January, 2004. This post consistently shows up in my referrers list, usually coming from a search engine. Recently, Brent Ozar (@BrentO) wrote a great argument for why he always bills by the hour (a.k.a. Time & Materials or T&M) which itself was a response to Mark Richman’s (@mrichman) post on why he never bills by the hour (fixed bid). Each article has good arguments, and I encourage you to read them both and choose the best approach for you. As for me, my experience parallels Brent’s and I historically have leaned toward the Time & Materials model.

Project Management Techniques (high level)

- by Sam J

Our software dev team is currently using kanban for our development lifecycles, and, from the reasonably short experience of a few months, I think it's going quite well (certainly compared to a few months ago when we didn't really have a methodology). Our team, however, is directed to do work defined by project managers (not software project managers, just general business), and they're using the PMBOK methodology. Question is, how does a traditional methodology like PMBOK, Prince2 etc fit with a lean software development methodology like kanban or scrum? Is it just wasting everyone's time as all the requirements are effectively drawn up to start with (although inevitably changed along the way)?

So, BizTalk 2010 Beta is out … wait, no it’s not … wait

- by Enrique Lima

Over the last couple of days we have seen posts and “rumors” of the Beta availability. There was a link to the bits from the Download Center, but then they were not. Documentation for it is available now at: BizTalk Server 2010 Documentation – Beta Microsoft BizTalk Server 2010 ESB Toolkit Documentation – Beta BizTalk RFID Server 2010 and BizTalk RFID Mobile 2010 Documentation – Beta But what about the bits?!?

Useful git commit messages for merged branches

- by eykanal

As a follow-up to this question: If I'm working on a team by myself, I can maintain useful commit messages when merging branches by squashing all the commits to a single diff and then merging that diff. That way I can easily see what changes were introduced in the branch, and I have a single summary describing the feature/change/whatever that was accomplished in that branch when browsing the master branch. My question now is, how can I accomplish this when working with a team? In that situation, the branches will be pushed to a remote repository, meaning that I can't squash all the commits in the branch down to a single commit. If the branch is public, can I still have a single useful merge commit in the master branch? (By "useful" I mean that the commit in the master line tells me (1) a useful summary of what was done in the branch and (2) diffs of the same.)

Install tmux on Mac OS X

- by unixben

This is a short run down on how to get tmux running on your Mac OS X system. The same methodology applies when compiling this on Solaris. What is tmux? According to the developer's page, "tmux is a terminal multiplexer: it enables a number of terminals (or windows), each running a separate program, to be created, accessed, and controlled from a single screen. tmux may be detached from a screen and continue running in the background, then later reattached". Why not just use screen? For me, the primary reason I switched to tmux from screen is the much easier configuration syntax that tmux offers. If you've ever struggled with formatting screen's caption or hardstatus line, then you will appreciate the ease with which you can achieve the same results in tmux. Preparing your environment You will need a C compiler installed. I believe that OS X ships by default with GNU make, but if not, then you will need to obtain it or use Xcode. Download the sources While I'm putting all this together, I like to keep everything neatly tucked away in a build directory. mkdir ~/build cd ~/build curl -OL http://downloads.sourceforge.net/tmux/tmux-1.5.tar.gz curl -OL http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/levent/libevent/libevent-2.0/libevent-2.0.16-stable.tar.gz Unpack the sources tar xzf tmux-1.5.tar.gz tar xzf libevent-2.0.16-stable.tar.gz Compiling libevent cd libevent-2.0.16-stable ./configure --prefix=/opt make sudo make install Compiling tmux cd ../tmux-1.5 LDFLAGS="-L/opt/lib" CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/include" LIBS="-lresolv" ./configure --prefix=/opt make sudo make install That's all there is to it!

Join me to register for the Summit

- by Bill Graziano

This year the Summit registration opens at 6PM on Sunday at the Seattle convention center. Last year we had a dozen people hanging out, watching the twitter feed on the big monitor and catching up. All we really needed was a bar and we’d have our own little party going. So this year I’m adding a bar. I’ve arranged for a cash bar and some stand up tables. I’m buying the first round for the first 40 or so people that come by. Come by, register and say Hi. I’d especially like to encourage first-time attendees to stop by. This is a low key way to meet some people that will be at the conference.

DotNetNuke 5.4.1 Released

I am happy to announce the release of DotNetNuke 5.4.1 which corrects the major issues which slipped through the QA process for 5.4. While we try to do a good job in testing our releases, our recent efforts for 5.3 and 5.4 have fallen short of the mark. We are currently working with a small team of commercial module developers and the core team to put a better public beta testing process in place that will help augment our own internal testing. Ultimately, community testing is the only testing that...Did you know that DotNetSlackers also publishes .net articles written by top known .net Authors? We already have over 80 articles in several categories including Silverlight. Take a look: here.

Dealing with technical debt

- by Desolate Planet

This is a question that I often ask myself when working with developers. I've worked at four companies so far, and I've noticed a lack of attention to keeping code clean and dealing with technical debt that hinders future progress in a software app. For example, the first company I worked for had written a database from scratch rather than take something like MySQL and that created hell for the team when refacoring or extending the app. I've always tried to be honest and clear with my manager when he discusses projections, but management doesn't seem interested in fixing what's already there and it's horrible to see the impact it has on team morale and in their attitude towards others. What are your thoughts on the best way to tackle this problem? What I've seen is people packing up and leaving and the company becomes a revolving door with developers coming and and out and making the code worse. How do you communicate this to management to get them interested in sorting out technical debt?

Feedback from SQLBits 8

- by Peter Larsson

This years SQLBits occurred in Brighton. Although I didn’t have the opportunity to attend the full conference, I did a presentation at Saturday. Getting to Brighton was easy. Drove to Copenhagen airport at 0415, flew 0605 and arrived at Gatwick 0735. Then I took the direct train to Brighton and showed up at 0830, just one hour before presenting. This was the easy part. Getting home was much worse. Presentation ended at 1030 and I had to rush to the train station to get back to London, change to tube for Heathrow. Made it at the gate just 15 seconds before closing. That included a half mile run in the airport… Anyway, yesterday I got the feedback for my presentation. It does look good, especially since English is not my first language. This is the first graph Seems to be just halfway between conference average and best session. I can live with that. Second graph shows more detail about attendees voting. It also look acceptable. A wider spread for the 9’s, but it is an inevitable effect from how attendees percept the session. I did get a lot of 8’s and the lower grades in an descending order. The two people voting 4 and 5 didn’t say why they voted this so I don’t know how to remedy this. Third graph is about each category of votes. Again, I find this acceptable. The Session abstract and Speaker’s knowledge seems to follow attendees expectations compared to conference average. I seem to have met the attendees expectations (and some more) for the other four categories, also compared to conference average. Since this did encourage me, I believe I will present some more at future meetings. I do have a new presentation about something all developers are doing every day but they may not know it. I will also cover this new topic in the next Deep Dives II book. Stay tuned! //Peter

Route multiple subdomains on one external ip to multiple internal ips

- by Abenil

i have several subdomains(git.example.org, build.example.org, etc.), i have a router with an external ip and i have several virtual machines on a host computer with internal ips. Now i want to route git.example.org to internal ip 10.0.2.1 and build.example.org to internal ip 10.0.2.2. How can I do this? I setup in the Router that all traffic on port 80 is comming to my host computer with internal ip 10.0.2.3 and installed Squid on that computer. I added the following lines to the squid.conf file: cache_peer 10.0.2.1 parent 80 0 no-query originserver name=server_1 cache_peer_domain server_1 git.example.org cache_peer 10.0.2.2 parent 80 0 no-query originserver name=server_2 cache_peer_domain server_2 build.example.org But this is not working for me. :( Any help appreciated.

ClearTrace Performance on 170GB of Trace Files

- by Bill Graziano

I’ve always worked to make ClearTrace perform well. That’s probably because I spend so much time watching it work. I’m often going through two or three gigabytes of trace files but I rarely get the chance to run it on a really large set of files. One of my clients wanted to run a full trace for a week and then analyze the results. At the end of that week we had 847 200MB trace files for a total of nearly 170GB. I regularly use 200MB trace files when I monitor production systems. I usually get around 300,000 statements in a file that size if it’s mostly stored procedures. So those 847 trace files contained roughly 250 million statements. (That’s 730 bytes per statement if you’re keeping track. Newer trace files have some compression in them but I’m not exactly sure what they’re doing.) On a system running 1,000 statements per second I get a new file every five minutes or so. It took 27 hours to process these files on an older development box. That works out to 1.77MB/second. That means ClearTrace processed about 2,654 statements per second. You can query the data while you’re loading it but I’ve found it works better to use a second instance of ClearTrace to do this. I’m not sure why yet but I think there’s still some dependency between the two processes. ClearTrace is almost always CPU bound. It’s really just a huge, ugly collection of regular expressions. It only writes a summary to its database at the end of each trace file so that usually isn’t a bottleneck. At the end of this process, the executable was using roughly 435MB of RAM. Certainly more than when it started but I think that’s acceptable. The database where all this is stored started out at 100MB. After processing 170GB of trace files the database had grown to 203MB. The space savings are due to the “datawarehouse-ish” design and only storing a summary of each trace file. You can download ClearTrace for SQL Server 2008 or test out the beta version for SQL Server 2012. Happy Tuning!

VMMap - awesome memory analysis tool

VMMap is a process virtual and physical memory analysis utility. It shows a breakdown of a process's committed virtual memory types as well as the amount of physical memory (working set) assigned by the operating system to those types. Besides graphical representations of memory usage, VMMap also shows summary information and a detailed process memory map. Powerful filtering and refresh capabilities allow you to identify the sources of process memory usage and the memory cost of application features. Besides flexible views for analyzing live processes, VMMap supports the export of data in multiple forms, including a native format that preserves all the information so that you can load back in. It also includes command-line options that enable scripting scenarios. VMMap is the ideal tool for developers wanting to understand and optimize their application's memory resource usage. span.fullpost {display:none;}

How to get innovation in product development?

I was at Redgate last week and say plastered all over the canteen wall flip chart sheets with ideas scrawled over them. I was going to take a photo but thought it might not be allowed. I asked what it was all about and they told me that ALL the development team are going to stop working on what they are doing and do whatever they want. Whatever they want? yes So thats the whole team working on something? No, it can be individual or in groups. Having worked in product teams before I and the others...(read more)

Sharing ideas without risk of leaking

- by eversor

As freelancers, we meet somewhere and chat about a new idea for a project, brainstorm etc. Up to this point, we have taken notes of the ideas, but we would like to be able to share more efficiently the ideas with each other. However, I fear that if I use some online product (such as Google Docs) these ideas could be seen by people outside the team (employees of the company of the online product, other users...). I am not sure if I am being a little Paranoid parrot... One solution that we have considered is to install a Subversion with just one ideas.txt. But that would require a server in one of our houses, which is a little unconfortable. So how do you share your ideas for a new project with your team without risking the ideas to be stolen?

(Yeah yeah, technically it's in Alpharetta, but it's close enough.) Saturday…Saturday….Saturday…. September 17th. TWO THOUSAND ELEVEN! OK, it's not a tractor pull, but it's even better: FREE SQL SERVER TRAINING! They have a bunch of great speakers lined up, and for some reason, me. (Protip: be good friends with the program committee, have sufficient bribe funds, and if all else fails, lots of alcohol, drugs and a camera. Ba-ZING! You too can speak at SQL Saturday!) I will be presenting Revenge: The SQL! in a new and improved SQL Saturday themed presentation. Actually, it's the same ol' presentation, I just updated the slide theme to match the new SQL Saturday website design. (Yeah guys, thanks for changing that a month ago. So much for coasting on the old format.) Of course, you have your choice of three other SQL Saturdays in other cities that day, but come on, you really want to go to this one. #sqlsat89 #sqlsaturday #sqlkilt #sqlpass
