Im going to release some of my private java projects as opensource. I want everyone to be free do whatever he wants with the code. So i will be using ASL or BSD licence.Which steps are neccessary to apply the licence to my project ? ...
Years ago I released a program called Banshee Screamer Alarm and at the time it included the full source code, "for educational purposes only." You couldn't extend it to make your own version, but you could learn from it. It actually helped somebody fix a bug in wine. If I release more software like this (open source, but copyrighted an...
It's been a while now since Microsoft stopped supporting Embedded Visual C++ 4.0 (eVC 4), and they don't let you use the Windows Mobile SDK with the Express version of VS 2008. Now, I'm OK because I get an MSDN license through work (including VS 2008 Pro), but I'd like to work on a couple open-source projects, and not all the other cont...
Where can I find critical analysis of OpenSource projects? ie: in-depth analysis of methods within the source, a comparison of projects with others, and performance metrics ... I'd like to read something about existing projects that would give me an overview of its design, implementation, strengths and weaknesses, so I can choose somet...
I'm new to using open source libraries in production code so when it says replicate this license or whatever what is the proper way of doing it? With desktop software is providing a readme somewhere good enough? What about for a website? ...
I am working on a project at work and see an opportunity to extract and abstract some functionality that is part of the project and release it as open source. I have a hard time accepting the idea that this functionality should remain propietary and believe the open source community would get a major benefit from it. Would this be un...
I'm working on a Java applet that needs to display "fancy" equations. Is there any Java renderer for MathML or LaTeX that's open source? Ideally it would be a pure Java solution that doesn't use JNI. Ideally it would also allow to animate the generated glyphs (e.g. animating adding a constant to both sides of a equation, lines going thr...
Book, website, or whitepaper. Thanks in advance. ...
Greetings everyone. I'm a senior at a Computer Science program. Our group is having trouble deciding what do to for our final project, as we all have varying backgrounds and interests. The requirements are very open; it could be anything from a research intensive machine learning project to a Silverlight game. The project must be re...
I'm writing an iPhone app, and I would like to use a 3rd party library for part of its functionality. I intend on selling it through the App Store and my code will not be open sourced. Which open source licenses allow this? ...
I want to reuse some code licensed under a BSD license but I don't know how to make it clear what I wrote, what I have reused and what I have modified. Say the project I want to reuse code from has the following directory structure: project/ |-- LICENSE.txt |-- module1/ | |-- file1.c | |-- file2.c | `-- file3.c |-- module2/ `-- m...
I'm looking for a way to display a VNC viewer in a thick/rich java client (specifically, I'm using SWT, but if I can get it into AWT/Swing, I can integrate that specifically.) This is not an applet, but a real, live, thick java client. TightVNC is probably sufficient; however, its GPL license is too restrictive for my needs. Is anyone...
Does someone know an open source project or code snippets, which demonstrate how to create a google-chrome like interface with similar tabs and toolbar in Swing? I know, that I can use JTabbedPane, but I'm thinking of an interface which looks and feels very similar to the google chrome "tabbed browsing". ...
For a project I need to read and write ESRI shapefiles. It should be very easy, as I don't need advanced features. Is something out there? ...
A bit of background: Earlier today I downloaded an EDI library in Java that is licensed under the GPL. The GPL is no good to me, as I need to sell the application I'm working on (I like eating and having a house :) ), so I can't use this library as I can't open source my entire application. However, I like what the guy who wrote it has ...
I've tried to research this through searching, but got nowhere. Has anyone done a survey of open source programmers to answer questions such as: Do you do this as part of your job? If so, how much of your job is it? If you do it in your spare time, how much time do you spend on it? Are you a student? What motivates you? I'm amazed at...
Please list GUI programming libraries, toolkits, frameworks which allow to write GUI apps quickly. I mean in such a way, that GUI is described entirely in a human-readable (and human-writable) plain text file (code) code is terse (1 or 2 lines of code per widget/event pair), suitable for scripting structure and operation of the GUI is ...
Any suggestions for open source aspect-oriented library for c#. Thanks ...
Hi, I am looking for an open-source asp.net (preferably .net 2.0) project in c#. It doesn't matter if it is some kind of a shop or cms or anything else. What matters is the size of the project that must be at least of medium size (not a simple app that was done in 2 weeks by one developer) and it would be a great advantage if the projec...
Which free/open source machine/computer vision libraries do exist? I'm aware of OpenCV and VxL, what else is available? ...
