Avenging Dentist posted:As well it shouldn't, since RAII renders finally redundant. "finally" has nothing to do with RAII. The big language introducing the feature was Java, which has automatic memory management. Every language which copied it to my knowledge (except C addons) has the same automatic memory management, and sometimes even has RAII as well. That's like saying that goto renders while redundant - they may overlap functionality but they serve completely different purposes, and when you are forced to use one when you want the other your code suffers. Edit: Anyway I didn't denigrate C++ for this reason, so I'm done with this.

Snodar posted:"finally" has nothing to do with RAII. The big language introducing the feature was Java, which has automatic memory management. If by "automatic memory management", you mean garbage collection, that's exactly what RAII is the opposite of, since the principle of RAII is that initialization occurs in the constructor and cleanup occurs in the destructor (which is called immediately upon leaving scope). This is in stark contrast to garbage-collected objects, which can be destructed at pretty much any time. I have never found the lack of finally in C++ to be even remotely problematic, since it's never actually necessary if you're writing idiomatic C++ code. But since this is fake-Javascript, finally is occasionally useful, since Javascript is not big on RAII.

shrughes posted:What? RAII and finally blocks are two ways of doing exactly the same thing. I misspoke, you're right. I separated them absolutely when there is in fact quite a bit of overlap when you're using it to close resources (that is, when doing so makes a behavioural difference). I'm not going to try to defend my position further because it's a discussion I don't want to enter.

Screen shots dont really do much for what I'm working on. The image above is a directory listing of all the files on my twitter, which you can see here. You can change the path from /qoobiedoobie to /username to view all the files on username's twitter, if they have any. To upload files to your twitter I have a little uploader script here. All of the files are stored in a series of encoded tweets. It depends on the file, but right now a 4kb jpeg takes ~20 tweets to store. My goal was to make twitter remotely useful, which I kind of did... I guess. You can do some stupid stuff with this like host a webpage on twitter(Like This!). My next goal is to get it working with FUSE.

Intel Penguin posted:are you sure that's even allowed? and wouldn't all that gummy up your twitter? Well they whitelisted my ip so I guess they don't care that much. As for gummying up your twitter, yeah you'll get a bunch of funky looking stuff but you can post your normal stuff around it. It's really pretty useless since you can only make 1000 posts a day, but I really just wanted to see if I could.

Not nearly as cool as the stuff everyone else is working on I got tired of giant audio recording/editing/mastering/polishing suites when all I wanted was a tiny little efficient stream-to-file audio recording program that had more than enough options. I plan to use this as the recording software to record mixer-out from the DJs spinning at parties my friends and I host frequently.

Doing research this summer in a robotics/AI lab, and right now I'm working on getting a webcam to recognize objects. I'm making a GUI for it, here's what I have so far: Click here for the full 757x599 image. My prof wants it to be able to recognize a blue dice. I have thresholding working, next I need to find connected components then get some statistics on each of those, then make some qualifiers to determine if it's a dice or not. Luckily the lab already has a lot of GUI stuff to build upon, so I don't have to deal with too much swing

What I've been working on for the past 3 years. Now that we've finally announced it, it's fun to show it off. Design/Control GUI for large scale DSP/Control processing. All written in WPF. Real time measurement, matrix panning, embedded lua scripting, all sorts of fun. Click here for the full 1679x1017 image.

I wrote and just released a desktop client and .NET API for YouMail. YouMail is a voicemail replacement service that I fear is going to be crushed in the near future by Google Voice, but I use it right now and it works great. This little guy lets me click on a tray icon to see and hear my messages. Edit: ^^^ How were your experiences developing in WPF?

mintskoal posted:Edit: ^^^ How were your experiences developing in WPF? I also had to go to a lot of effort to get 'acceptable' performance for some of the real-time visualization stuff. It's still not as fast as I would like and I have to be careful how much stuff I throw at it. Overall, I think it's pretty well thought out and very powerful. If I were starting a new app and only needed to support XP+, I'd be hard pressed to recommend anything but WPF. From the look of your screen shot it'd be trivial to implement something similar to what you have in WPF.

It is pretty functional and is incredibly responsive. I am using the multipart/mixed content-type to stream JSON in an XHR. Here is the github URL. It only works in Safari and Firefox right now, and I don't think it will ever work in IE unless I switch to polling. Right now it will display inline images and let you play inline audio as well. But it is incredibly easy to write new filters, I just can't think of any more. edit: here is a screenshot leedo fucked around with this message at 04:03 on Jun 26, 2009 |
