I use ZF a lot and I like it very much. I've learned how to solve a big part of perfomance problems with ZF, so it's became not "enormous" and "monstrous" for me. But I'd like to know if there are any as powerful frameworks as Zend for PHP. Maybe CodeIgniter is? What is it? What are its cool features? Anything else? And, are there any ...
This is a multi-part question. I just watched a very interesting presentation on YQL by the lead developer (a graduate of my MS program). While it was very compelling, and I am looking forward to trying it out, I am wondering if anyone knows of alternative frameworks for querying multiple web service APIs to make them appear seamless, th...
I have an application for Mac OS X that supports plugins that are intended to be loaded at the same time. Some of these plugins are built on top of a Cocoa framework that may receive updates in one plugin but not another. Given Objective-C's current method for function dispatching, any call from any plugin to a given Objective-C routine ...

Hi Everyone I'm currently looking for a new web stack to build a hobby project on and would like it to be powered by JavaScript. I've had a quick look at Nitro, NarwhalJS etc. but was wondering if anyone had any solid recommendations or experience of an entire end-to-end javascript/json architecture ( jquery, middleware, standard libra...
The last time I looked at web applications, the consensus seemed to be Struts/J2EE. Now, it looks like Spring MVC/J2EE or Struts/J2EE are both viable solutions. Is this generally correct? Or is Spring MVC now the consensus choice over Struts? We have at least one guy who has worked with Struts before and wants to go with that. I'm more f...

I am looking to start writing a sophisticated application in JavaScript to run on the web. I've written little bits of throwaway code in JavaScript before, using the DOM directly and a little bit of jQuery. But this is the first time I'm looking to write a full-fledged application to run in the browser. So, I'm wondering what toolchains...
It's trivial to write a function to determine the min/max value in an array, such as: /** * * @param chars * @return the max value in the array of chars */ private static int maxValue(char[] chars) { int max = chars[0]; for (int ktr = 0; ktr < chars.length; ktr++) { if (chars[ktr] > max) { max = chars[ktr]; } } return ma...

Hello! I've just started learning Scala and the first thing I'm going to implement is a tiny web-application. I've been using Erlang for the last year to implement server-side software, but I've never wrote web-applications before. It will be a great experience. Here is my question: are there web-frameworks for Scala except for Lift? ...
I'm building a framework project in XCode and everything builds and looks great except there is no Headers directory in the built Foo.framework. Do I have to add an explicit build phase for this or is there just a setting to which I'm oblivious? PUBLIC_HEADERS_FOLDER_PATH looks promising, but I'm not sure how to use it. ...
Usually if you write a program using a well-known interpreter/script language or framework, there's usually a thing the developer can't control - how long it will take for program to start. But due to innovative nature such languages are easier to develop and reflects the infamous RAD concept. On the other side a user usually don't care ...

After reading a couple articles about web MVC architecture, I'm conflicted about how to go about creating an modern web application nowadays. The previous web paradigm consisted of: Model: Business logic server View: Dummy browser client that showed whatever the controller told it to show. Controller: Web server tier that maintained...
So it seems that cakePHP tables need a field called "name" or else the id number is displayed while testing out table relationships in the scaffold. Is there a way around this? instead of 'id' 'name' 'last_name' in my table, I want 'id' 'first_name' 'last_name'. I have to have a "name" field for every table in order to display the pr...
