I'm working on a simple tool that transfers files to a hard-coded location with the password also hard-coded. I'm a python novice, but thanks to ftplib, it was easy: import ftplib info= ('someuser', 'password') #hard-coded def putfile(file, site, dir, user=(), verbose=True): """ upload a file by ftp to a site/directory ...
What is the current status of TagLib# (TagLib sharp)? The official homepage www.taglib-sharp.com (link removed due to the NSFW nature of the new site that's parked at that address. -BtL) doesn't exist anymore! I've found the project on ohloh where the old homepage is still linked. Also the download link points to the old site. BUT the...
Know of any good libraries for this? I did some searches and didn't come across anything. Someone somewhere must have done this before, I hate to reinvent the wheel. ...
I need to write a simple command-line application in Java. It would be nice to use a library that takes care of parsing commands and takes care of things like flags and optional/mandatory parameters... UPDATE Something that has built-in TAB completion would be particularly great. ...
I'm starting a new personal project on the side, so this is the first time I'll be able to start from the ground up on a larger project since ASP.NET 2.0 was first released. I'd like this to also be a good learning experience for me, so right now I'm planning on building this upon ASP.NET MVC, Castle ActiveRecord, and Ninject. I'm most c...
Hey there What I need to do is convert Microsoft Word .doc files to PDFs or images. This has to occur in Java. I have done a fair bit of investigation already. I've tried Davisor Publishor but it doesn't give me the accuracy that I need - for instance text overlapping in the output document. Adobe has something called LiveCycle. Anyon...
It's been about two years since I last developed games, and I am interested in starting a new project. What is the most common open-source 3D model format? I am looking for a format that would preferably have a lot of either public domain or open-licensed models existing. Last I checked, MD5 was the most common animated model format, a...
Hi all, I've found two libs to work with Regular Expression in Ansi C: [Lightweight C++] http://students.ceid.upatras.gr/~sxanth/lwc/ This is not really a Regexp lib but I can use it to write my expressions on it and then execute the preprocessor to get the generated C code. [Real Regex Lib] http://www.osix.net/modules/article/?id=349...
Hi all, I was just wondering what network libraries there are out there for Python for building a TCP/IP server. I know that Twisted might jump to mind but the documentation seems scarce, sloppy, and scattered to me. Also, would using Twisted even have a benefit over rolling my own server with select.select()? ...
Hi all, I would like two java programs to communicate directly over the USB without going through a device or cable. Don't ask me why, I don't know the details or reasoning behind this decision. I have found jusb and jsr-80 to be two java/usb APIs to do this. They work on linux AND windows - I will need capabilities on both. Questio...
Hey all, I'm using a powerbook (osx 10.5) and recently downloaded and installed FFTW 3.2 (link text). I've been able to compile and run some simple programs based on the online tutorial using the terminal: g++ main.cpp -lfftw3 -lm however, I can't get the same program to compile in Xcode. I get a linking error, "symbol(s) not found...
Hi, I have graph and somehow I need to find all closed contours in graph that doesn't contains any other edges of the graph. I was searching google but only gives me charts :) Is there any library or if you know name of such algorithm. thx ...
Is there any way to decrypting a pdf protected by an aes-256 bit key? I have the correct password and I need a command-line tool (or library - perhaps in python :P ) for decrypting the file and then doing some operation over it. The best thing could be if the file could be saved decrypted, then I elaborate it and then I can remove it.....
I'd like to give Objective-C a try in game programming. The problem is I'd need some tools and libraries for this. First thing that comes into mind I need is the GUI and graphics library. What choices do I have? ...
Do any open source libraries exist for programatically selecting and rating the compatibility of sets of colors using color theory? It would be very useful to be able to select color palettes based on simple color harmony rules like complimentary, analogous, triadic, and tetradic colors. ...
I have a programm (written in C#) which reads/writes it's data direct (direct file access without server) to firebird database files. For a better exchange I want to (un)compress them on import/export for a better exchange over the internet without the need of an external programm to (un)compress them. I know #ziplib which supports Zip,...
There are at least 4 YAML implementations listed at yaml.org. Which one of these (or another) would you recommend, and why? There are two ways you could answer this question, either by voting for one of the 4, or by giving a good answer that compares them or strongly justifies one of them. I'll add the 4 mentioned so people can vote, b...
Hi, My question is not exactly the same as this one (it's not theoretical, there is only a main thread without message loop, InitInstance and ExitInstance are no fitting calls). I'm using a console app without message loop; this app loads an exe with the LoadLibrary function, so that it can use its exported functions. Bad news: the Dll...
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...
Background: I want to use the Delphi translation of mysql.c in a project but the original maintainer Matthias Fichtner (http://www.fichtner.net/delphi/mysql/) appears to have taken it down. Question: Does anyone know of a similar wrapper (or an updated version of Matthias Fichtner's wrapper) around libmySQL.dll that is similar in lightw...
