How can we migrate to using VS2005's Database Projects?

At my company, our current method of updating the database is to connect using the Server Explorer in VS2005, then modify the stored procedures by opening them and editing. The devs here seem to enjoy that "write and save it like it's code" mentality. It is pretty convenient, how it automatically turns Create into Alter and runs the sc...

URL generation in my web app is in charge of the presentation layer. Now consider another module sending out messages containing URLs. (Not neccessarily triggered from presentation).

I have a desktop application I'm developing with Visual Studio where I need to update a small part of the app on a more frequent basis.

XCode - Editing xcodeproj bundle (specifically project.pbxproj)

I'm working in XCode and I've also written an external editor tool that generates resources for use in the project. In the best case scenario, the tool would edit the project.pbxproj file so that it includes the generated resources in the project. I've read through the file in an attempt to understand it, and it's mostly discernible but ...

untangling .h dependencies

What do you do when you have a set of .h files that has fallen victim to the classic 'gordian knot' situation, where to #include one .h means you end up including almost the entire lot? Prevention is clearly the best medicine, but what do you do when this has happened before the vendor (!) has shipped the library? Here's an extension ...

How to write flexible and reusable code in a business where we make custom apps (fast)?

It looks like a vicious circle... We always have a near impossible deadline. So, we code as fast as possible. The client get its app in time, but if he want to change something afterward, it'll cost him a lot more than if we took time to write super flexible code. Who can blame our bosses, they are still making money, right? Sure it wo...

What's the best way to share JARs across multiple projects?

When you have multiple projects that all use the same set of JAR libraries, it's tedious to include the same JARs over and over again with each project. If I'm working on 20 different projects, I'd rather not have 20 of the same exact set of JAR files lying around. What's the best way to make all those projects (and new projects as well)...

What I'm referring to is a site that works similarly to e-lance, rentacoder, etc, but is specifically aimed at free software projects.
