How to manage large projects without Visual Studio?
How does one go about keeping track of source files, resources, references, assemblies, etc.. if they didn't want to use Visual Studio. I know you can compile code with csc, and use csc to add all of the references, etc.. but it becomes quite painful to add these references as the project grows. How do you manage it when splitting the ...

Compile a string to Ruby bytecode for better performance -- like compile() in Python
I have a string (authenticated, trusted, etc.) containing source code intended to run within a Ruby loop, quickly. In Python, I would compile the string into an abstract syntax tree and eval() or exec() it later: # Python 3 example given_code = 'n % 2 == 1' pred = compile(given_code, '<given>', 'eval') print("Passed:", [n for n in rang...

Optimization for division on "extern const int"
Hi, I work in project in which I have the following code: file1.c extern const int z; int x; do_some_stuff_to_calculate_x(); y = x / z; do_some_stuff_with_y(); file2.c const int z = Z_INIT_VALUE; // some value defined in some .h file. The point of interest is the division in file1.c . Since z is extern, so it is not known in comp...

I'd like to know if it's safe to link my project to those libraries and what were the possible trouble I might encounter. I cou...

Dynamic Java Compilation: BeanShell, Janino, JavaCompiler?
I am about to start developing a small Java desktop app. The app is just an engine for which the user provides Java classes to do the work (translating input to output). I would like the user to provide actual Java classes as files that can be loaded (and reloaded) on the fly. For this particular use, is there any reason why Java woul...

I'm running a database server in a Linux VM (Ubuntu 9.10) under VMware Fusion, but coding Django on the Mac side. Installing mysql-python requires that MySQL is installed on the Mac for compiling _mysql.so into site-packages. However, after this is done, I have no further use for MySQL on the Mac side, and would rather just delete it. O...

Inclusion of unused symbols in object files by compiler in C vs C++
This might be a dumb question, but maybe someone can provide some insight. I have some global variables defined in a header file (yes yes I know that's bad, but this is just a hypothetical situation). I include this header file in two source files, which are then compiled into two object files. The global symbols are not referenced anyw...
