I saw the posting about the Best Tail Log Viewer, but it does not support filtering or sorting of custom column names. I've been testing out the Kiwi Syslogd, and you have to pay for the ability to sort and filter. Does anyone know of a log viewing software tool that also supports filtering and sorting? ...
As with many developers in small or mid sized shops, I have to put on my designer hat from time to time. I can't really justify buying something like CS4 or other designer tools. I do currently have a small tool bag of helpful, free tools like Paint.NET IconExtract ColorCop Are there any other good ones out there that I should chec...
I've used both Vbulletin and Simple Machines in the past but I'd like something much less bloated. It must have basic features like: user levels, list of users online, avatars, bans, mods, sticky threads, lock threads, etc. Private messaging would be a plus! It must also be easily customisable & clean coded. (And the more lightweight/...

I like PhpEd because with CTRL-SHIFT-S, it will upload to the test server, so no need to switch to the FTP client, locate the file, and upload it. I also like TextMate because the display is nice (Monaco font is less cramped than Lucida Console and easy to look at than Courier)... and also with a left panel for folder and file listing. ...
Hi, where do malloc() and free() store the allocated addresses and their sizes (Linux GCC)? I've read that some implementations store them somewhere before the actual allocated memory, but I could not confirm that in my tests. The background, maybe someone has another tip for this: I'm experimenting a little bit with analyzing the heap...
I am planning to build a web application that will require a relatively complex database. There are several tables involved with many relationships, enough to make it very difficult to keep it straight in my head. I need a simple and easy way to summarize the tables and illustrate the main relationships so that it visually makes sense ...
Hey everyone, I am getting a heap corruption error I cannot figure out. char * c = (char *) malloc(1); // main loop _gcvt_s(c, 100, ball->get_X_Direction(), 10); if(pushFont(c, (SCREEN_WIDTH - 30), (SCREEN_HEIGHT - 40), message, screen, font, textColor) == false) { //return 1; // error rendering text. } // end main loop f...
In C, which is the better practice when it comes to freeing memory returned from functions: Provide a "destructor" function that encapsulates the call to free(). Require users to free() the returned pointer themselves. For example, to open and close a file we do: FILE* f = fopen("blah", "w"); fclose(f); Is this preferable to: FIL...
The Delphi online help says that Release should be used to remove a form from memory. However, in many examples for modal forms I have seen this construct: MyForm := TMyForm.Create(nil); try MyForm.ShowModal; finally MyForm.Free; end; Is Free a safe way to destroy a modal form? As I can see in the source for ShowModal, Application...

I feel that my professional exposure has been biased towards Visio, by the choice of IT managers and project managers. I've worked only in Microsoft solution centric shops where MS Office was the standard. Are there any other professional shops out there using other tools? ...
I am looking for a new source control solution. We are currently using an ancient version of VSS, and it sucks. This will be used by only me for now, and at most two or three others in the future. I would like it to be usable from within VS 2008. It has to be free. Our company is not buying any new software due to the economic downtur...
