    "HTTP application to use Fiddler? You can either directly configure the WinHTTP application to point to Fiddler, in code, or you can use the following command at the command prompt to tell WinHTTP to use Fiddler: On XP or below: proxycfg -p http=127.0.0.1:8888;https=127.0.0.1:8888 ...or this one to force WinHTTP to use WinINET's proxy settings: proxycfg -u On Vista or above, use an Elevated (admin) command prompt: netsh winhttp set proxy 127.0.0.1:8888 Note: On Windows 7 and earlier, netsh is bitness specific, so you may want to run the above command twice: first using the 32bit NETSH and then using the 64bit NETSH. This blog has more information. This issue was fixed in Windows 8; you can call either NetSh just once to set the proxy for both 32bit and 64bit WinHTTP hosts. Capture traffic from a different account, like ASP.NET on IIS or from a Windows Service? Trying to capture SOAP calls coming from ASP.NET or some background service process?  By default, Fiddler registers as the proxy only for the current user account (ASP.NET runs in a different user account). To get a background process (like the ASP.NET or IIS process) to use Fiddler, you must configure that process to use Fiddler. Typically, this is done by editing web.config or machine.config for the ASP.NET installation, or the configuration for the code running within the Windows Service. Please see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc300743.aspx#S4 or the section on .NET or WinHTTP, depending on which network stack the service is using. Configure Windows Phone 7 to use Fiddler? Please see http://blogs.msdn.com/b/fiddler/archive/2011/01/09/debugging-windows-phone-7-device-traffic-with-fiddler.aspx for actual device hardware, or http://blogs.msdn.com/b/fiddler/archive/2010/10/15/fiddler-and-the-windows-phone-emulator.aspx for the emulator.

agile productivity anti-patterns

shared by kuni katsuya on 01 Nov 12 - No Cached
  • Interruptions Hurt Your Team’s Productivity
  • Productivity is futile in the face of constant interruptions
  • work is scattered through shared network drives, hard drives, and email
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 01 Nov 12
       
      or sharepoint, confluence, jira, word docs, pdf docs, spreadsheets, walled post-it notes, emails... not universally or easily searchable. arghhh...
  • ...17 more annotations...
  • Charging towards a common goal is difficult when:
  • center on meetings alone.
  • When disorganization and uncertainty is the norm, clarification and re-clarification is needed to regularly keep a team focused and working together
  •  waste A LOT of your time
  • Information isn’t located in a centralized place so it isn’t easily accessible to everyone.
  • It’s just easier to ask someone else because they are a Subject Matter Expert (SME). Both.
  • 2. Interruptions encourage multi-tasking, which is bad
  • 1. Most interruptions are trivial and could be avoided
  • it takes most people 16 minutes to refocus after sending an email while doing other work
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 01 Nov 12
       
      it takes most software engineers *at least* 20-30 minutes to get back into 'the zone' following an unrelated distraction
  • No wonder people like to work from home!
  • To perform at your productive best, you need your best focus, something that’s unachievable when you’re constantly interrupted
  • 3. Recovering from interruptions takes longer than you think
  • Between email, meetings, and interruptions (both active and passive),
  • there’s hardly time to get any work done while you’re actually at work.
  • Pro-Tip: Only turn on email and instant message when you need to use them
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 01 Nov 12
       
      ie. never?  ;) though then, you end up with 5,932 unread emails in your inbox and 113 angry co-workers!
  • To combat such interruption, check these tools 3 times a day – when you first get into the office in the morning, around lunch, and before going home for the night – and turn them off otherwise.
  • reduce the rate at which interruptions occur

Dependency injection discourages object-oriented programming? @ Blog of Adam Warski - 0 views

java javaee6 CDI CdiDependencyInjection OO Object-Oriented procedural DI DependencyInjection

shared by kuni katsuya on 12 Dec 12 - No Cached
  • Dependency injection discourages object-oriented programming?
  • if you’re using DI, and you have an X entity, do you have an XService or XManager with lots of method where X is the first argument?
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 12 Dec 12
       
      evidence of the anti-pattern of procedural design in a java ee6 cdi application
  • previous way is more procedural
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 12 Dec 12
       
      ie. ProductService.ship(Product,Customer)
  • ...12 more annotations...
  • service/manager is a set of procedures you can run, where the execution takes a product and a customer as arguments
  • better
  • OO approach
  • not saying that achieving the above is not possible with a DI framework
  • only that DI
  • encourages the ProductService approach
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 12 Dec 12
       
      well, dependency injection, but moreover, the soa approach to service design tends to force otherwise intelligent software engineers into doing procedural design the services just end up being bags of method calls that implement any type of behavior, with the domain objects or entity beans being reduced to mere data structures with little responsibility or behavior beyond persistence. (which, in this anti-pattern, is typically mostly provided by the repository or dao class! ie. domain object crud)
  • it’s just easier
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 12 Dec 12
       
      ... if you just blindly follow the anti-pattern, of course  ;)
  • many benefits
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 12 Dec 12
       
      with the procedural approach, you also cannot implement polymorphic behavior, for instance
  • builder
  • fluent interface
  • it’s not for small projects
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 12 Dec 12
       
      fuckwhat? small or big matters not. if di is applied poorly, regardless of project size, it's an anti-pattern! disregard these comments!
  • problems with DI frameworks:

java javadoc BestPractices documentation design communication

shared by kuni katsuya on 13 Dec 12 - No Cached
  • Javadoc coding standards
  • explain some of the rationale for some of my choices
  • this is more about the formatting of Javadoc, than the content of Javadoc
  • ...63 more annotations...
  • Each of the guidelines below consists of a short description of the rule and an explanation
  • Write Javadoc to be read as source code
  • Making Javadoc readable as source code
  • Public and protected
  • All public and protected methods should be fully defined with Javadoc
  • Package and private methods do not have to be, but may
  • benefit from it.
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 13 Dec 12
       
      think of it as internal design documentation when you revisit this code 8 months from now: - based on nothing but your well-chosen ;) package/class/method/variable names, will you recall all of your current design intentions and rationale? likely not - when you hand-off this code to another software engineer, how easy will it be to mostly rtfm? will you have to waste time preparing design/implementation notes specifically for the hand-off? if this is the case because the code is unreadable and not self-guiding and there's not already at least high level design notes in a wiki, you're doing it wrong!
  • If a method is overridden in a subclass, Javadoc should only be present if it says something distinct to the original definition of the method
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 13 Dec 12
       
      ie. don't just copy-paste the javadoc from the superclass. that's mindless and pointless monkey work
  • Use the standard style for the Javadoc comment
  • Do not use '**/' at the end of the Javadoc
  • Use simple HTML tags, not valid XHTML
  • XHTML adds many extra tags that make the Javadoc harder to read as source code
  • Use a single <p> tag between paragraphs
  • Place a single <p> tag on the blank line between paragraphs:
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 13 Dec 12
       
      this at least makes the paragraph breaks wysiwygísh and somewhat easier to read
  • Use a single <li> tag for items in a list
  • place a single <li> tag at the start of the line and no closing tag
  • Define a punchy first sentence
  • it has the responsibility of summing up the method or class to readers scanning the class or package
  • the first sentence should be
  • clear and punchy, and generally short
  • use the third person form at the start
  • Avoid the second person form, such as "Get the foo"
  • Use "this" to refer to an instance of the class
  • When referring to an instance of the class being documented, use "this" to reference it.
  • Aim for short single line sentences
  • Wherever possible, make Javadoc sentences fit on a single line
  • favouring between 80 and 120 characters
  • Use @link and @code wisely
  • @link feature creates a visible hyperlink in generated Javadoc to the target
  • @code feature provides a section of fixed-width font, ideal for references to methods and class names
  • Only use @link on the first reference to a specific class or method
  • Use @code for subsequent references.
  • This avoids excessive hyperlinks cluttering up the Javadoc
  • Never use @link in the first sentence
  • Always use @code in the first sentence if necessary
  • Adding a hyperlink in that first sentence makes the higher level documentation more confusing
  • Do not use @code for null, true or false
  • Adding @code for every occurrence is a burden to both the reader and writer of the Javadoc and adds no real value.
  • Use @param, @return and @throws
  • @param entries should be specified in the same order as the parameters
  • @return should be after the @param entries
  • followed by @throws.
  • Use @param for generics
  • correct approach is an @param tag with the parameter name of <T> where T is the type parameter name.
  • Use one blank line before @param
  • This aids readability in source code.
  • Treat @param and @return as a phrase
  • They should start with a lower case letter, typically using the word "the". They should not end with a dot. This aids readability in source code and when generated.
  • treated as phrases rather than complete sentences
  • Treat @throws as an if clause
  • phrase describing the condition
  • Define null-handling for all parameters and return types
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 13 Dec 12
       
      ideally, if the method in question has any specified/required pre and/or post conditions, they should be noted in the javadoc, not *just* null handling also, there are cleaner ways to design around this type of old school null handling hackage
  • methods should define their null-tolerance in the @param or @return
  • standard forms expressing this
  • "not null"
  • "may be null"
  • "null treated as xxx"
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 13 Dec 12
       
      DO NOT DO THIS this is just bad design
  • "null returns xxx"
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 13 Dec 12
       
      this might also stink of poor design ymmv
  • In general the behaviour of the passed in null should be defined
  • Specifications require implementation notes
  • Avoid @author
  • source control system is in a much better position to record authors
  • This wastes everyone's time and decreases the overall value of the documentation. When you have nothing useful to say, say nothing!
    • kuni katsuya
      kuni katsuya on 13 Dec 12
       
      likewise with javadoc on things like default constructors /**  * Creates an instance of SomeClass  */ public SomeClass() {} is equally useless and unnecessarily clutters up the source code
