  • Joel Bennett on 16 Oct 08
     
    Expect is an extension to the Tcl scripting language to create an automation and testing tool for CLI applications such as telnet, ftp, passwd, fsck, rlogin, tip, ssh, et., and because it wraps the standard command-line interface, it can be used to automate any arbitrary applications that are accessed over a terminal.

.net code-generation development microsoft programming research software webdesign

  • design and build your application as a .NET client application, then assign the portions of the application to run on the server and the client tiers late in the development process. The compiler creates cross-browser JavaScript for the client tier, web services for the server tier, and communication, serialization, synchronization, security, and other boilerplate code to tie the tiers together.
  • Joel Bennett on 07 Dec 07
     
    Volta is to .Net what the Google Web Toolkit is to Java ... except it goes *way* further, because it lets you write a multi-tiered application as a rich-client app and then choose to have the client portion "compile" to HTML+Javascript ...

  • Don't worry: the code will always tell you what to do. Just listen.
  • The key points here are that a class is only a singleton if all applications treat it exactly the same and if its clients can use the class without an application context.
  • "[c]ode wants to be simple."
  • Fabien Cadet on 17 Mar 09
     
    "singletons are unnecessarily difficult to test and may make strong assumptions about the applications that will use them [...] I know where you live anti-pattern [...] Liskov Substitution Principle". "To decide whether a class is truly a singleton: * Will every application use this class exactly the same way? (exactly is the key word) * Will every application ever need only one instance of this class? (ever and one are the key words) * Should the clients of this class be unaware of the application they are part of?"

    Orange is a component-based data mining software. It includes a range of preprocessing, modelling and data exploration techniques. It is based on C++ components, that are accessed either directly (not very common), through Python scripts (easier and better), or through GUI objects called Orange Widgets.

    Usability suffers when users type in passwords and the only feedback they get is a row of bullets. Typically, masking passwords doesn't even increase security, but it does cost you business due to login failures. It has proven to be a particularly nasty usability problem in our testing of mobile devices

In this article, I'm going to introduce you to Git, my favorite DVCS, and hopefully show you why it is not only a better version control system than Subversion, but also a revolutionary way to think about how you get your work done."

  • The biggest question left unanswered in my mind is the role state will play in software of the future.
  • The biggest question left unanswered in my mind is the role state will play in software of the future. That seems like an absurd statement, or a naïve one at the very least.  State is everywhere: The values held in memory. Data locally on disk. Data in-flight that is being sent over a network. Data stored in the cloud, including on a database, remote filesystem, etc. Certainly all of these kinds of state will continue to exist far into the future.  Data is king, and is one major factor that will drive the shift to parallel computing.  The question then is how will concurrent programs interact with this state, read and mutate it, and what isolation and synchronization mechanisms are necessary to do so?
  • Many programs have ample gratuitous dependencies, simply because of the habits we’ve grown accustomed to over 30 odd years of imperative programming.  Our education, mental models, books, best-of-breed algorithms, libraries, and languages all push us in this direction.  We like to scribble intermediary state into shared variables because it’s simple to do so and because it maps to our von Neumann model of how the computer works.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • We need to get rid of these gratuitous dependencies.  Merely papering over them with a transaction—making them “safe”—doesn’t do anything to improve the natural parallelism that a program contains.  It just ensures it doesn’t crash.  Sure, that’s plenty important, but providing programming models and patterns to eliminate the gratuitous dependencies also achieves the goal of not crashing but with the added benefit of actually improving scalability too.  Transactions have worked so well in enabling automatic parallelism in databases because the basic model itself (without transactions) already implies natural isolation among queries.  Transactions break down and scalability suffers for programs that aren’t architected in this way.  We should learn from the experience of the database community in this regard
  • There will always be hidden mutation of shared state inside lower level system components.  These are often called “benevolent side-effects,” thanks to Hoare, and apply to things like lazy initialization and memorization caches.  These will be done by concurrency ninjas who understand locks.  And their effects will be isolated by convention.
  • Even with all of this support, we’d be left with an ecosystem of libraries like the .NET Framework itself which have been built atop a fundamentally mutable and imperative system.  The path forward here is less clear to me, although having the ability to retain a mutable model within pockets of guaranteed isolation certainly makes me think the libraries are salvageable.  Thankfully, the shift will likely be very gradual, and the pieces that pose substantial problems can be rewritten in place incrementally over time.  But we need the fundamental language and type system support first.

CLI Java javascript

shared by David Corking on 27 Apr 09 - Cached
  • It is impossible to build a hash table in JavaScript that works on arbitrary objects. You would have to manually allocate unique ID’s for every object and include them in the toString. So no collections in JavaScript. Adobe provides a true built-in hashtable in ActionScript 3.
  • Objects can function as sets and maps. Arrays can function as lists and iterators (generate an array when you need an iterator). More that good enough in this context.
  • VB also often compiles down to better MSIL than C#. It is also the only .NET language with first-class edit-and-continue Lisp-like debugging capabilities.
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • a good collection library should support a meta-object protocol with features like rejecting changes. This allows collections to be passed around as references,

    Interesting clippings from the slides: "What can we do with it? * Write applications. Melodie uses lots of Smalltalk, first pure-Smalltalk app committed to svn in January. * Write scripts. Corner activation and gesture app uses Smalltalk for scripting. * Modify existing apps... " "We can inspect classes in a code browser, see method names, and write replacements in any running application. In a perfect Free Software system, any user can make any changes. "
  • David Corking on 11 Apr 09
     
    My comment above might imply that Smalltalk is not modern. The truth is far from it, as Smalltalk is still pushing the boundaries of technology and user interfaces, from Croquet and Qwaq, to Alice, Sophie, Scratch and Etoys.
  • David Corking on 11 Apr 09
     
    (I fixed Friday's broken link to the PDF.) From what I read so far, this seems to be another attempt at a fully introspecitve integrated and customisable personal computer with a graphical desktop. In other words, it is Dynabook Smalltalk and Lisp workstations all over again, but quite likely with some interesting modern twists.

    It is always important to know how to submit a bug report. It doesn't help that every community has different expectations, and every bug tracking system has a different layout. In Squeak, the learning curve is long but shallow. In this 23 minute screencast, Ken Causey starts with some bug hunting tips, and explains how to make a Smalltalk changeset file that is numbered, documented and compressed. He then shows how to submit this to the Mantis server on bugs.squeak.org.

flex DI architecture actionscript

shared by ybordiq on 04 Jan 11 - No Cached
  • t is common to add event listeners in the onRegister method of the Mediator. At this phase of the Mediator’s lifecycle, it has been registered and its view component and other dependencies have been injected. The onRegister method must be overridden in concrete Mediator classes. Event listeners may be added in other methods as well, including event handler methods that are responding to both framework and view component events.

      ybordiq on 04 Jan 11
       
      note: this is only partially true: if any widget of the view is not included in the "normal" state of the view (cf use of states in flex + usage of "includeIn" component property), then it is null when the onRegister() is called => impossible to register an event listener to it via the eventMap (or any other way)=> we can listen to the view currentStateChange events and register event listeners at that moment, but this is somewhat ugly...(might be more a limitation of Flex than Robotleg, though...)

    "So when he found a bug and it was fixed by a developer, he had to wait ages before he could deploy the build with the fix into his testing environment to check it. This problem results from a combination of two anti-patterns that are common when creating a deployment pipeline: * insufficient parallelization, * and over-constraining your pipeline workflow.

    SEO friendly URL is recommended for any website which wants to be indexed and wants its presence in search results. Searchengine mostly index the static URL. It will avoid the URL which has lot of query strings. Almost all websites generate content dynamically then how could the URL be static. That is the job of the programmer. This article explains in view of Java Struts2 framework.
