I have a Silverlight App that presents the user with a pretty straighforward form to fill in. The labels (TextBlocks) and the Fields (TextBoxes) are laid out in Grid as you might expect. We had a problem that when one TextBlock had its Opacity set to 0, the application would constantly re-render itself as verified by turning on the ena...

I need to make a duplicate of an existing object graph from one NSManagedObjectContext and insert it into a second NSManagedObjectContext. Is there a straightforward way to do this? From what I can tell I could ask the MOC for its -registeredObjects and then do something like this to copy the attributes: NSString* entityName = [[...
I'm following a tutorial of making desktop apps. with python and qt4, I downloaded and installed qt creator ide, created the .ui file and then I had to convert it using pyuic4, I've been trying a lot of things and still can't do it.

I'm open to ObjC, C, C++, Ruby, Python, etc.... I don't care what language as long as it's just a few lines of code. But Ruby would be nice :-) On Linux you can write to /dev/...
It's not the problem to look in all domains, but I can't find the right way to look for any service on the network. ...
I would like to support drag and drop from Google Gears in my MacOS application (Google Wave client Waveboard - http://www.getwaveboard.com). Although the Gears plugin seems to work in my WebView it does not respond to drag and drop actions like it should. In Safari and Fluid this works fine. Question: Does someone know if I need to set...
Hi Everyone, I have an Java applet that loads native code through JNI. Everything worked just fine until I made the upgrade to Snow Leopard, and then Safari decided to be dumb. It turns out Safari will only load 64 bit binaries when in 64 bit mode. (You can put it in 32 bit mode, but that is not an option.) I changed my build system (g++...

I am coding in Eclipse (on the Mac) and need to run OS shell commands from time to time. I have a lot of bash terminal windows open and it takes time and is distracting to find the right one for the programming session. The commands are not always the same, and I need to see the output, so something like an External Builder will not do...
