I know for a fact that I wrote the last blog entry on the 7th of April. (It is my birthday, so I should know!)
But the date on RedGloo said that I wrote it the 5th of April – Oddities!
As I'm venturing down into Glade# development I've found this http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/GladeCodeChanger.aspx useful tool for C# code generation of .glade files.
It works with vs2005. (This is the first time I've installed something to work with vs2005, and it just worked. So I'm well happy!!) Pat beware!! It probably won't work on your machine then…. 😀
Don’t know why I didn’t think of this before! But XMPP (the underlying protocol of Jabber) could be the easy solution of transfer between different MeAggregators.
Right now the patent for the technology behind all Ajax processes and most p2p processes is up for graps in an auction (US Patent 6418462 http://www.regdeveloper.co.uk/2008/03/25/ajax_patent_auction/)
My question is how the beeeep Yongyong Xu was able to get a patent issued on a computer process so simple as connecting a client to a server through a "sideband service" after an initial server connection has been made?
What can I say about American patent laws!!
Has anybody tried out http://www.flock.com/ ?
They claim it is a social web browser powered by Mozilla. Maybe worth a trial…
Why oh why oh why do MS always change solution format, so that you can't open solutions in old VS instantiations? Even solutions that doesn't use any new features…
My VS2005 feels old, very old!
I've been looking at how to use eclipse with the setup that Rob has made now.
If "the developer" is only going to change Java code, then it can be downloaded as before from inside Eclipse. This is discouraged as we should be versatile 😉 so:
"The developer" should check out all the files on the google code site using something like tortoisse. Next step is to open up Eclipse in a "random" empty workspace, and then create a new project, selecting the using the "create from existing source" option browse to the folder of the java code.
Rob, P@ and I have looked at how to get further in the Mea work, as a result I’ll be looking at integrating user technologies into MeA.
We decided to use Mono in the future whereever possible when coding MeA. Therefore I needed to set up working environments.
I’ve managed to get a working plug-in of mono for VS2005.
I’m still struggling with getting linux and mono into play. I believe that my biggest problems arise from VB in mono, and I think that I’ll soon disregard the language on the Linux platform.
Additionally I’ve started to install Visual studio tools for Office to enable integration of especially emails and calendars in office, but it has proven difficult to get running fully – still work in progress…
I’ve also worked on MUVEnation tag handbook, to get it into a WIKI in Moodle, looked into proxy issues (yes, they are still using basic auth!!!), partaken in training, sent the CEN-ISSS CV and tried to get the Mea server to start using RDFS inferencing. The last part is bringing up strange internal jena invocation exception, which ‘m trying to resolve.
Hmmmnn, this week has brought more new problems than resolved issues.
Mono in VS2003 is a piece of cake, because there is an installer, and a community of users who have shaved all the problems away.
Sadly Mono in VS2005 is not that simple, and has given me considerable aggrevation, but I've now finally got a running add-in in VS2005. Following is an bullet point list of what I did to achieve this milestone:
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/01/22/brazil_bans_everquest_counte
Brazil bans counterstrike because a mod of cs teachers war strategies in Rio and everquest because it allows people to play on the evil side of fantasy!
I'm outraged! How can a so called democratic country do this? The next thing would probably be banning FIFA06 because Brazil didn't win that tournament, although the game allows you to "undo" history!
