Looking to identify an asp.net grid control that has more functionality and ease of use than the standar asp.net grid control but doesn't punish you wiht excessive html or javscript code. Currently using infragistics but the html for a page is typically in the 90k range and the js that is parsed/downloaded is about 250k. This seems exces...
Specifically, how do you handle 2 different libraries sharing a common dependency? For example, I've structured a project with a Lib\ directory with each 3rd party library (and its dependencies) contained in separate sub-directories: Lib\ IBatis\ Log4Net\ etc. This is fine if there's no overlap. Required libraries are added ...
I need to convert Word binary documents (version 97 up to 2003) into HTML documents programatically. I have googled for 3rd party libraries but most results are junk built on top of System.IO.Package which, ofcourse, are useless for other word documents except Word 2007 - Office Open XML. Do you know a good tool / library for .NET to pr...
In the organization I work for, there is a strong aversion to many things that weren't built in-shop. For example, We make very little use of JavaScript libraries, suggestions for looking at development frameworks such as templating are often never considered or simply put off indefinitely. We don't have many developers ( < 20 ), so ti...

How do you stored 3rd party libraries in source control? The problem I have is that I can't checkout the source and compile it on just any computer, it has to be the one computer that I installed the library. Any suggestions? ...
After writing the code in Matlab, is it possible to compile it into libraries and distribute them to customers who don't have matlab without installing the whole Matlab program? What is the license governing the distribution of Matlab code? ...
I have a project with quite a few dependencies and would like to cut down on the number of assemblies being distributed. My project depends on external 3rd party dependencies such as Oracle.DataAccess and log4net. I am thinking if I could distribute this as one assembly as this is a sort of common utilities library and used in several o...
Our code base uses several external libraries, in order to save time and focus on developing important features instead of reinventing the wheel. Currently the code is littered with direct usage of the libraries. This means that switching to other libraries that have more-or-less the same features will mean rewriting almost everything f...
Has anybody produced a C++ wrapper for SQL that allows to interface to flat files or an active DB server or possable an in memory DB depending on run-time configuration. I have seen: SQLite mySQL I am sure there are others. Both of these are really C and though they provide the same functionality there is no common interface (that ...
Yes, the problem is with a library I'm using, and no, I cannot modify it. I need a workaround. Basically, I'm dealing with a badly written Perl library, that exits with 'die' when a certain error condition is encountered reading a file. I call this routine from a program which is looping through thousands of files, a handful of which ar...
I'm always having a hard time deciding whether or not to use 3rd party libraries in commercial applications. For some reason it scares me a bit. If I use an opensource library is there a risk of being sued because something is wrong with the license? Are there any other pitfalls? What if I think it is the best to use some library and I t...
So we ran into an interesting issue today. We have a JEE (J2EE) web app that uses a bunch of 3rd party jars. This includes Hibernate. We use the java logging api that comes with the SDK for logging purposes. Typically we are pretty thin on logging but we ran into this issue with one of our 3rd party jars using log4j to create it's own l...
Hi, I need to embed a comment box on pages for this site i'm working on. Basically, a box where you can leave your comment, and that displays other's comments. Backend should include basic moderation options. We have little control over the code of the page, and therefore we're looking into 3rd party widget. Ideally, something that is s...
I was looking for a better (well documented and efficient) xml processing C library. ¿ Ideas ? ...
We have various solutions with various numbers of projects in them. All checked in to a Team Foundation Server source control thing. Most of them builds as Class Libraries. Anyways, we now want to use some 3rd party external assemblies in our project. And I am wondering how to best do that. Cause we of course want to have those assembl...
I was wondering if anyone has gone through a process of picking a 3rd party library for Silverlight components? The major offerings I know of thus far come from Telerik, ComponentOne, and Infragistics. Rather than make this all negative can I phrase the question specifically as the following: a) Which 3rd party Silverlight components h...
A third party provided me a static lib (.a) to link with on solaris station. I tried to compile with sunpro, and failed at link step. I suppose the issue is coming from the compiler I use (gcc instead?) or simply its version (as the std lib provided by the compiler could change from the version expected by the library AFAIK it could lea...
