- An Integrated-Documentation Tool for Oracle Databases
- In an ideal world, all software and database systems would have clear documentation that is always up to date. In the real world, however, documentation usually is either non-existent or so out of date that it is misleading. This is especially true for legacy software systems that were developed before...

- Creating Simple Firefox "Add-Ons" With Ubiquity: Developing Add-Ons for Firefox Can Be Tedious, But It's Not Hard
- Making add-ons for Firefox is not hard, but development can be tedious, especially as there is no formal development IDE for making them (Venkman comes closest, but it's not very close). So, if the developer creates a component, he or she has to build the XUL supports and overlays, bind...

- Exploring Secrets of .NET Keystroke Handling
- Few areas in .NET are seemingly as simple yet deceptively challenging as processing keyboard inputs. This situation is exacerbated because neither the MSDN documentation nor any of the excellent .NET support websites provide comprehensive, practical details about handling keystrokes. Enter Keystroke Sandbox, a small application developed just for this paper....

- Extracting Meaning From Text With OpenCalais R3: Formally-Structured Text That Is Published Can Be Summarized and Combined With Other Text to Provide New Insights
- A big challenge companies face today is that most information, both online and archived, is only available as published text and does not contain any formal structure suitable for synthesizing. In a formal structure, information can be summarized, used to help locate meaningful text, and combined with other text to...

- Use Explicit Conversion Functions to Avert Reckless Implicit Conversions
- The compiler invokes user-defined conversion functions which are also called conversion operators implicitly. In most cases, this process is well-behaved and intended. However, there are cases when one certainly doesn't want the compiler to invoke the conversion operator implicitly - but one can't prevent it. Several workarounds have been devised...

- Polyglot Programming: Building Solutions by Composing Languages
- Back in 2006, the author coined the term polyglot programming in a blog post. It is not a new concept (being at least as old as Unix and probably much older-the author just attached a modern term to it). That blog post was a response to what some are calling...

- "Supply Chain" SOA With SKOS
- The supply chain vision applies to the world of Service Oriented Architectures SOA and Enterprise development. Historically, this software development approach yielded vertical silos where everything was done in one place or application. Database layers feed raw content to various processing steps, which display the end results through a client-facing...

- eCryptfs: Single-File Encryption in Linux
- If the user needs to share data in a Linux environment, some basic encryption solutions and practices will allow the user to do so in a very secure manner. Many tools enable data encryption in Linux, and each has its pros and cons. Yet many developers try to build their...

- Getting Started With the .NET Task Parallel Library: Multi-Core Case Studies
- The forerunner to this paper, Getting Started with Task Parallel Library, explained how to use the Task Parallel Library TPL to launch swarms of tasks on separate threads that execute on all the computer's available CPUs. That paper used basic stripped-down examples to demonstrate TPL concepts. But as usual, there's...

- Stripes 1.5 in Black and White: Simpler Java Web Development
- One of the attributes that attracted me to the Stripes MVC framework was its ease of use and short learning curve. The latest release of Stripes, version 1.5, preserves this nature by enhancing many of its existing features without requiring extra work or adding complexity. This paper highlights the main...

- Getting Started With the .NET Task Parallel Library
- Parallel programming has been around for decades, but unless one had access to special-purpose hardware, they've probably written mostly single CPU applications. One could distribute truly intensive applications across a network - but doing so was a lot of work and involved a lot of overhead. For several years, programming...

- "Getting Real" With RDF and SPARQL
- The "Getting Real" approach by Web 2.0 poster child 37signals reverses the usual development process from model to code to user interface by going "From brainstorm to user interface sketches to HTML to coding." Principles such as, "Don't write a functional specification," or "Essentials only" can help developers stay focused...

- A Generic, Reusable Solution for Marshalling Java Objects To/From XML
- Solving the same problems over and over again can be quite tiring for a software engineer, yet the object persistence wheel has been reinvented more times than one would like to count. Thankfully, the industry is centralizing on XML because it can represent object relationships very well, and it is...

- Virtualize Your SOA With the Managed Services Engine: Use the Microsoft Managed Services Engine to Manage the Changes in Your SOA
- If there is one truth in software development it is that change is constant. The best any developer can do is to isolate the things that change from the things that stay the same. At all levels of an architecture the fact that things will change must be taken into...

- Using PHP's MDB2_Schema, an XML-Based Database Schema Manager
- The MDB2_Schema library from the PHP Extension and Application Repository PEAR is a powerful solution for preserving and using database schemas for different kinds of Relational Database Management Systems RDBMSs. Because MDB2_Schema stores database schemas in XML format, it's independent of any particular RDBMS. One can execute basic SQL statements...

- Code Around C#'s Using Statement to Release Unmanaged Resources
- Suppose the developer obtained unmanaged resources in a class constructor during object construction and the created object was provided to a using statement. However, the resources were not released at the end of the using statement's usage block. Instead, they were released during garbage collection, as the developer may expect....

- Overview: C++ Gets an Overhaul

C++0x, the new C++ standard due in 2009, brings a new spirit and new flesh into the software development world. Brace yourself for state-of-the-art design idioms, even better performance, and...
