Since I'm a Windows guy, and since both Apache and Mongrel can easily be set up as Windows service...
I'd like to get emacs sql-mysql mode working in windows xp. I'm able to enter sql-mysql mode and connect to mysql database successfully. The problem is that the SQL buffer doesn't show the "mysql>" prompt. In other words, it's not interacting with mysql.exe. I think it's because the mysql.exe program is going into "non-interactive" mode...
Hi there, we have a C++ class which basically reads and writes vectors from a binary file.

I am doing some C++ cross development - been doing that for a while on Windows and recently started on Unix. I suppose what I am after is to simplify Unix development experience - I have a local windows box I do development on, and a remote Solaris box which I use to compile and test code on unix environment.

The situation is as follows: Thread A catches an exception, saves the exception's data somewhere in memory (using GetExceptionInformation in the exception filter), and afterwords Thread B gets that exception information and wants to rethrow it.

However, running ini_get("include_path") shows the path as "C:\PHP5\". This causes problems with PEAR, etc. I've searched the system (i.e. php.ini...
