I've been hearing about WCF for a couple of years now, and I still don't get it. I understand that it's supposed to be a replacement for web services, remoting, MSMQ, and a few other things. The trouble is, every tutorial I find assumes that I've done one of those things, and it tends to follow the line of "Here are the differences; yo...
Can someone please recommend a GOOD online tutorial for writing maven2 plugins? I looked at about 5 tutorials yesterday and each skipped steps, didn't tell you where key components (referenced in the tutorial) were supposed to go or how to install the plugin you wrote. Futher, many didn't reference which version of maven they worked ...

Ok, after seeing this post by PJ Hyett, I have decided to skip to the end and go with Git. So what I need is a beginner's practical guide to Git. "Beginner" being defined as someone who knows how to handle their compiler, understands to some level what a Makefile is, and has touched source control without understanding it very well. "...
I have written a parser in boost:spirit and now I wish to write the same stuff in antlr 3.1.1 to see if there are any performance gains or if it might be a better way to go about it as it also exports to many other languages besides c++ (The current 3.x branch actually does not export to c++). 3.1.1 is built using 2.7.x yet, it supports...
I'd like to make a video tutorial for my SDK--one of those videos that shows the screen while some dude talks about what he's doing. Can someone direct me to easy and preferably free tools for doing so? Desired features: - Cuts (recording several snippets of video and putting them together afterward) - Subtitles (not only for user conve...
I've been working with JSF for some time, and been using the Apache-Trinidad tags. I like developing using this a lot but I keep hearing great things about facelets. Is anyone out there using it, and what exactly does it get you? I've looked at the facelets site (https://facelets.dev.java.net/), but it doesn't do a very good job explai...
Hi people. I have to build an application based in an ActiveX library (MIL for Matrox framegrabbers). The library should be already working, since it compiles and run a console application provided as example. (Yes, the console application is probably not using any ActiveX at all... I actually don't know) The application will set times...
Hi I'm looking for a good tutorial on using regular expressions especially with grep. I tried googling for some but most tutorials are too basic and cover things I already know. ...
OK - Im getting really piss3d off here!!! Every tutorial or explanation of REST just goes too complicated too quickly - the learning curve rises so fast after the initial explanation of CRUD and the supposed simplicity over SOAP. Why can't people write decent tutorials anymore! I'm looking at Restlet - and its not the best, there are t...

Can anyone link me to a decent c++ tutorial that's actually currently in date? Almost everything I find applies to 2005 and the code examples are riddled with errors which won't run in my 2008 version of the visual compiler. ...

I want to collect a list of handy references on Haskell, that would be useful when one needs to be refreshed about the basic and mundane or move to more advanced materials. In terms of books, Real-World Haskell doesn't seem to fit the bill, because it's moves a bit slowly. On the other hand, I like Programming in Haskell. Even though it...

Beyond the official documentation, are there any recommended resources for learning to build jQuery plugins. I'm particularly interested in building plugins for the UI libary. I've been looking at the source for some of the official ones, but I've found they all look quite different from each other. Many are not well commented and it i...
I'm going on an extended road-trip, and I plan on bringing a laptop. I was thinking of downloading a bunch of the Silverlight articles at silverlight.net/learn (I'm not a videos guy) I'm comfortable with /(?:Iron)?Python|Ruby|C#/. I'm not looking for .NET or language intros. I'd like sources that get down-and-dirty with DLR and Silverlig...
