I'm refactoring some code in C++, and I want to deprecate some old methods. My current method for finding all of the methods looks like this: Comment out the original method in the source file in which I'm working. Try to compile the code. If a compiler error is found, then make a note comment out the call and try to recompile. Once th...

There is a maintanble approach to build DOM with jQuery? Take a look at the append method of this code... $.getJSON("api/test", function(data) { $.each(data, function () { $("#tests").append($('<tr><td><input type="radio" name="' + this["name"] + '"/><td>' + this["name"] + '</td><td>' + this["descr"] + '</td></tr>')); }...
Hi there, When I do a refactoring such as renaming a field in netbeans, the hibernate mapping files are updated accordingly. This could have bean a good thing if the whole files were not completely reformatted. So I would rather not have this feature. Is there a way to disallow the modification of hibernate mapping files by netbeans? ...

As I write some scripts, I usually reach a point where my code looks like this : end end end end end end I don't know about you, but this look very ugly to me. Can something be done about this? ...
We're refactoring a long method; it contains a long for loop with many continue statements. I'd like to just use the Extract Method refactoring, but Eclipse's automated one doesn't know how to handle the conditional branching. I don't, either. Our current strategy is to introduce a keepGoing flag (an instance variable since we're goin...

I don't need everything done for me but if you could give me a couple pointers to get going. Do...
Possible Duplicates: Whats the worst piece of code you have come across? Examples of some of the worst code youve had to manage? This mess reminded of some of the stuff I've had to work on. I was wondering if anyone else had nasty refactoring war stories and especially if you found unique or helpful solutions. ...
I'm in the middle of an ASP.NET MVC project and recently installed the free trial of ReSharper 4.5. Immediately I realized the benefits, simply because of the refactoring it wanted me to do. Things like inverting if statements to reduce nesting, changing some of my if/else statements that were returning Views to ?/?? operators - drastic...
After frequently coming across recommendation not to use leading and double underscores in C/C++ identifiers I decided to fix all our sources once and for all. What I need to do now is convert _Identifier to Identifier_. Should I use a specialized tool for this task of regular expressions will do for this job? In latter case what is the...
I've got a class in my project and I want to move and rename that class to somewhere else in the project's namespace. I tried simply moving it, but then the program won't deserialize any settings saved under Properties.Settings.Default for that setting. Is there a way I can move it without losing all of the user's settings? ...

Here is another old function I have from my C# 1 days, what would be a more elegant way to write it: //method: gets the text in a string in front of a marker, if marker is not there, then return empty string //example: GetTextAfterMarker("documents/jan/letter043.doc","/") returns "documents" //example: GetTextAfterMarker("letter043.doc"...
