TechrightsBot-tr-> Title: Is Calligra A Great Alternative to LibreOffice? .::. Size~: 44.52 KBJun 23 03:15
roy"@Bugs_Bane - that's a very interresting point. In fact, I've seen inconsistencies in displaying ODT files [which were created in LO] in both Calligra and Abword ... which makes me think it may be LibeOffice' fault. Need to make some more tests to nail it down."Jun 23 03:15
roy"Jun 23 03:15
roy@EXN - I just saved a file in ODT format and word is unable to open it. Now for me that's not a problem, but on the one hand I interact with a number of people who struggle to use a computer, let alone worrying what applications to use to open a file in an odd format. On the other hand I deal with people in business, and, like it or not, the only acceptable format for them is that chosen by Microsoft.Jun 23 03:15
royI'm curious as to which versions of word have problems opening previous versions? I have .doc files going back to1995 that I am able to open in Office 2008 for Mac.Jun 23 03:15
roy"Jun 23 03:15
roy"Jun 23 03:15
roy@Ancient_Mariner - well, you see, serious businesses usually use PDF format, because it is the only way to avoid displaying and formatting problems. The smaller ones don't usually get the whole point and use Word because that's the only thing they know and that's what they use in HOME. Business policies are usualy strict on what document formats are allowed, what type of software is allowed, what can and what cannot be installed on computers.Jun 23 03:15
royFor example, in my old workplace when I used to be an admin we had some policies like &quot;ODT internally - PDF for the clientJun 23 03:15
roy"Jun 23 03:16
roy"I've only worked in Pharma/healthcare/diagnostics, but all the companies I've interacted with have used word for documents, excel for data, powerpoint for presentations. PDF was reserved for official documents sent to customers that could not be changed (of course they can be changed, but most ordinary people didn't have the software to do so). I'm not sure what you'd consider a serious business - the last corp I worked for was Beckman Jun 23 03:16
royCoulter."Jun 23 03:16
roy"Well, by &quot;serious&quot; I mean those who do care for interoperability and their workflow, not the actual size of the company ;) I was an IT admin in middle-sized company in Poland [mostly international steel trading] and couple other places. I obviously have no actual  knowledge of US ecosystem, as I've never even been to US, so the policies I'm talking about may be a &quot;standard&quot; here, but not necessarily in other countries/Jun 23 03:16
roystates. I suppose it is a real pain to have local software monopoly, but I'l be glad to know your opinion in this subject"Jun 23 03:16
roy"I'd guess that the IT depts of almost every US and UK company would see microsoft software as the universal standard that guarantees interoperability. There are a few that use open source (as far as I recall, Peavey, the music company do) but they really are a rarity. Beckman (&gt;10,000 worldwide) had a standard build for PCs which included microsoft office, and they seemed typical of all the other businesses I've worked with."Jun 23 03:16
roy"OpenOffice right now feels a bit like Firefox did in early noughties. There's a surprisingly huge number of casual self-selected users."Jun 23 03:16
roy"Jun 23 03:17
royWell, If we are about to point our finger on anyone, then MS would be the one to be blamed. Closed document format specification leaves open source developers pretty much no choice but guessing. It's still a wonder that they eventually came up with some sort of &quot;support&quot; for this closed spec od DOC/DOCX. Jun 23 03:17
royPersonaly I use Linux exclusively, mixing it only with variety of other UNIX-based OSs like *BSD, occasionaly OSX [IF I really have to]. From all of this I must say ODT is the only solution that works right OOTB on every platform I use. Obviously it works on Windows too, but I don't knowJun 23 03:17

Justin_-hey I've seen some articles on techrights.org saying c# is a poor choice, I wondered if anyone could tell me more and what the alternatives areJun 23 10:42
MinceRfirst of all, there's the language they copied badly to make it: javaJun 23 10:42
MinceRbut in general it depends on what you're trying to doJun 23 10:43
Justin_-I want type safety, garbage collection, no risk of memory corruption, and native performance as a minimumJun 23 10:44
MinceRD might also do that, though i haven't tried it yetJun 23 10:45
Justin_-and no need to work alongside a language missing these features, like the C/python paradigmJun 23 10:45
MinceRyou can use a garbage collector with C++Jun 23 10:45
MinceRbut yes, the primary answer would seem to be Java thereJun 23 10:46
Justin_-I really like C++, a miss some things from C++ in C#, but memory corruption is an issueJun 23 10:46
MinceRwhat memory corruption?Jun 23 10:46
MinceRmisuse of pointers?Jun 23 10:47
Justin_-yeahJun 23 10:47
MinceRyou could use safer pointer classes, i thinkJun 23 10:47
MinceR(or smarter)Jun 23 10:48
Justin_-trueJun 23 10:48
Justin_-there are details though about using a gc and safe memory access in C++ that I didn't find workable, it's a lot of why I switched to C#Jun 23 10:49
Justin_-D looks interesting though, is the performance good?Jun 23 10:50
MinceRQt also offers implicit sharing which lets you hand objects around as if you were passing them by value and yet avoid most of the overhead from itJun 23 10:51

Justin_-true but I mean in dynamically typed languages where any symbol can have any meaning and be changed at any time, the framework has to be there to accommodate those changesJun 23 10:55
MinceRindeedJun 23 10:56
MinceRbut that framework doesn't have to be particularly heavyJun 23 10:56
Justin_-I don't know but you definitely can't just assert that 'X' and 'Y' will be ints and compile X+=Y to an "add" instruction and leave it at thatJun 23 10:57
MinceRtheoretically, a JIT compiler/optimizer can do thatJun 23 10:57
MinceRand be ready for the case when they happen to be something else :)Jun 23 10:57

Justin_-because there is no compiler, no way to assert ahead of time that 'X' will even be defined, let alone with a type that is coherent with your statementJun 23 10:59

Justin_-I can't exactly tell you why I don't like java, I just find myself having to work harderJun 23 11:03
Justin_-everything feels fussier, more typing, more hoops to jump through to get things doneJun 23 11:03
Justin_-and it seems to have a lot of classes I don't wantJun 23 11:04
MinceRat least it's properly documented, unlike c#Jun 23 11:04
Justin_-I thought the opposite was true, tell me moreJun 23 11:05
MinceRi found the official documentation for c# sorely lacking, with the (badly named) "Remarks" section being empty or just missing what the class was meant to doJun 23 11:07
MinceRalso, iirc in java there is a way to initialize a static const member of a non-primitive typeJun 23 11:07
MinceRin c# i ended up making it non-static or non-constant, i can't remember whichJun 23 11:07

Justin_-there's no good reason why I should have to write out a bunch of assignments in the constructor instead of inlining them in the class definition, I miss that from C++, it's not hard to organize it in the compilerJun 23 11:09
Justin_-it's ghettoJun 23 11:09
Justin_-it's bad practice too, it's just unclean, splits up the definition of members so you have to poke around to get the whole picture, which kind of conflicts with the goals of c#, it's bizarreJun 23 11:10

Justin_-I'm not advocating c# as superior to every other possibility, it has a lot of drawbacks and something better will come along if it hasn't alreadyJun 23 11:27
oiaohmJustin_-: really for a person like me there are a lot of other solutions to c# including luaJun 23 11:28
oiaohmlua natively can call out to c and c++ libraries.Jun 23 11:28
Justin_-right that's what I'm saying I don't want, a language that depends on code written in other languages, and that always will due to design limitationsJun 23 11:29
oiaohmJustin_-: c# cannot work without code written in other languages.Jun 23 11:30
oiaohmJustin_-: just as much as luaJun 23 11:30
Justin_-why?Jun 23 11:30
oiaohmlua is the smallest jit in existance so small it fits in the cpu l1 cache.Jun 23 11:31
oiaohmSo can be as fast as native code for real.Jun 23 11:31
oiaohmIn fact at times faster.Jun 23 11:31
oiaohmYes this is why lua is used in some games for game logicJun 23 11:32
MinceRJustin_-: because those languages need a VM of some kind, which can't run on itselfJun 23 11:32
oiaohmits faster to use lua than native code.Jun 23 11:32
MinceRin the end, you'll need a language to write part (or whole) of the OS in that doesn't need much runtime support, like CJun 23 11:32
Justin_-c# doesn't run in a virtual machine, it's compiled into native machine code and excutedJun 23 11:33
MinceReven then, kernel code won't have access to most of the standard libraryJun 23 11:33
MinceRafaik that native code still needs runtime supportJun 23 11:33
oiaohmJustin_-: you did not jsut get it.Jun 23 11:33
oiaohmlua is that small that it acts like you are using a compressed binary.Jun 23 11:33
Justin_-you can write a bytecode to machine code translator in almost any language, it's simple logic and mathJun 23 11:33
MinceRmany languages are compiled to native code in runtimeJun 23 11:33
oiaohmSo cpu can hold more executable code in its cache.Jun 23 11:34
Justin_-oiaohm: I understand, that sounds like a real advantage for performance in a lot of casesJun 23 11:34
MinceRyes, but that translator isn't going to write the code that manages your memory and objectsJun 23 11:34
MinceRlet alone lower level code like interfacing with the hardware and task schedulingJun 23 11:34
Justin_-microsoft has a gc written in c#, I had an email conversation about a year ago with someone at there about itJun 23 11:35
oiaohmJustin_-: then being able to reach back to c and c++ libraries for stuff that is not good for lua makes lua very had to beat.Jun 23 11:35
Justin_-they're working on a 100% c# kernel, completely self hostedJun 23 11:35

Justin_-I think the project started maybe 5 years ago, I could be wrongJun 23 11:36
oiaohmJustin_-: Yes but it still was a failure.Jun 23 11:36
oiaohmIssue is c# operation does not match how hardware operates.Jun 23 11:36
Justin_-I don't know about that either way but the concept wasn't a failure, they were able to design a basic self hosted c# kernel, boot it, interface with hardware, and dynamically execute programs written in c#Jun 23 11:37
oiaohmIts like all the attempts to make a pure java OSJun 23 11:37

oiaohmIncluding magic blocking of memoryJun 23 11:39
oiaohmand complete disrespect for the idea of garbage collection.Jun 23 11:39
Justin_-I mean as someone who's done a lot of kernel development and written a lot of x86 assembly including ring 0, can you give me specifics?Jun 23 11:39
Justin_-what's magic blocking of memory?Jun 23 11:40
oiaohmWhat firmware does to you at times.   Allocates you a pointer to somewhere.   Once some other requests are done overwrites what you have the pointer to without telling you.Jun 23 11:41
oiaohmSo you better copy what you requested and other things.Jun 23 11:41
oiaohmAlso at times clearing a block the hardware will still be refering it.Jun 23 11:42
Justin_-right, you have to be able to access arbitrary memory locations for certain parts of the kernel on x86Jun 23 11:42
oiaohmAnd the rules will be the hardware own idea not your OS's.Jun 23 11:42
oiaohmSo it argues with garbage collection really simply.Jun 23 11:43
Justin_-c# garbage collection isn't like c++ gcJun 23 11:43

Justin_-my point is that the c# gc is a simple algorithm, you can lay it out in ansi compliant C and run it in any C environment including within the linux kernelJun 23 11:46
Justin_-it's basically just following a chain of data structuresJun 23 11:46
Justin_-there's nothing low level about it, requiring hardware support or memory scanning etcJun 23 11:46
MinceRit will only work on C code that avoids doing certain thingsJun 23 11:46

oiaohmExactly as Mincer said is the problem Justin_-Jun 23 11:47

Justin_-I'm saying that the requirements to garbage collect c# are very, very simpleJun 23 11:48
Justin_-it's a simple algorithm that iterates over data structuresJun 23 11:48

oiaohmFalse.Jun 23 11:51
oiaohmThere is more than one form of CJun 23 11:51
Justin_-well I'm not trying to criticize C, it's just that you seem to have the expectation that c# has the same requirementsJun 23 11:52
Justin_-c# is simple in terms of memory, you can't do a lot of what C allowsJun 23 11:52

Justin_-I'm not saying the entire program file will be bit for bit identical between two different languages or compilers, I mean that A+B will generate an "add" instruction, P[10] will generate "eax[10]" etc..Jun 23 12:07
oiaohmJustin_-: its compliers that hate that.Jun 23 12:07
Justin_-oiaohm: that's not accurate, ansi C defines function and data pointers as separate, so that for example you can have a machine where a function pointer is an index into a static array of functions, and a data pointer is a pointer into a memory busJun 23 12:09

Justin_-or for example you can have function pointers that have added security or stability data for whatever reasonJun 23 12:09
Justin_-like canary values or whateverJun 23 12:09
oiaohmJustin_-: notes I said cast.Jun 23 12:09
oiaohm(void *) to convert the function pointer to at data pointer.Jun 23 12:10
Justin_-yes I'm saying ansi C says you can't cast them, any more than (char)2181 is necessarily valid (2181 being > 127)Jun 23 12:10
oiaohmIt is allowed.Jun 23 12:10
Justin_-by your compiler maybeJun 23 12:10
Justin_-not by the standardJun 23 12:10
oiaohmNo I have read the standard.Jun 23 12:10
oiaohmIts not forbin.Jun 23 12:10
Justin_-maybe we read different documentsJun 23 12:10
oiaohmA function pointer is an address.Jun 23 12:11
Justin_-that's an implementation detailJun 23 12:11
oiaohmYou are allowed to extract that address to void*Jun 23 12:11
Justin_-you are allowed to access the bytes of a function pointerJun 23 12:11
oiaohmNow to use it as a function again you have to conver tit back.Jun 23 12:11
Justin_-but for example, a machine where function pointers are 6 bytes and data pointers are 4 bytes is valid under ansi CJun 23 12:11
oiaohmAnd what lenth is a void *Jun 23 12:12
Justin_-like sizeof(void (*)(void)) > sizeof(void*) is valid under ansi CJun 23 12:12
oiaohmEvil pointJun 23 12:12
cubezzzC# is an imitation of java, so they sayJun 23 12:12
Justin_-I agree, it isJun 23 12:12
oiaohmTechically sizeof(void*) is invalid.Jun 23 12:12
MinceRc# is a bad clone of java :>Jun 23 12:13
cubezzzwhat I don't understand is why anyone would want to use C#Jun 23 12:13
Justin_-I don't like everything in .net but I honestly prefer c# syntax to java, and I prefer the bytecode systemJun 23 12:13
cubezzzyou can use bytecode without using C#Jun 23 12:14
cubezzzmake your own bytecodeJun 23 12:14
oiaohmReally the bytecode in .net is 32 and 64 bit picky.Jun 23 12:14
oiaohmIts not that great.Jun 23 12:14
Justin_-right I mean I prefer c# to the java language, and I prefer .net il to java bytecodeJun 23 12:14

cubezzzMicrosoft could use patents to hurt people using free versions of C#Jun 23 12:14
Justin_-I don't think there's a stability issue with eitherJun 23 12:15
oiaohmJustin_-: same with luaJun 23 12:15
oiaohmJustin_-: O yes there is.Jun 23 12:15
MinceRso, what's the difference between c# syntax and java? :>Jun 23 12:15
MinceRa few keywords that differ?Jun 23 12:15
cubezzzI'm not a big java fan either, but it's tolerable I guessJun 23 12:15
oiaohmJustin_-: il allowed address pointers along it to be code it.Jun 23 12:15
iophkThe apps I've seen in C# have been bloated and unstable.Jun 23 12:15
oiaohmJustin_-: 32 bit and 64 bitJun 23 12:15
oiaohmJustin_-: arch sentitive.Jun 23 12:15
Justin_-cubezzz: afaik that's not true about the c# programming language or il, they're both standardized, explicitly released, and also just a collection of unoriginal ideasJun 23 12:15
Justin_-but yes parts of .net are a problemJun 23 12:15
oiaohmJustin_-: really MS does not offically release a il to native code complier.Jun 23 12:17
oiaohmJustin_-: jit sux unless they are small enough to fit in cpu l1Jun 23 12:17
Justin_-MinceR: c# has a lot of extra featuresJun 23 12:17
oiaohmJustin_-: do you know why.Jun 23 12:17
Justin_-lambda expressions, object initializations, ref and out keywords, etcJun 23 12:17
Justin_-linqJun 23 12:17
oiaohmJustin_-: convert byte code to native code in ramJun 23 12:17
cubezzzMicrosoft just wants to take over everythingJun 23 12:17
Justin_-cubezzz: I agreeJun 23 12:18
oiaohmends up with blocks of memory that must end up in swap.Jun 23 12:18
cubezzzC# is just another example Jun 23 12:18
MinceRi thought java had lambda expressionsJun 23 12:18
Justin_-but the c# language syntax is a standard, it's not an issue legallyJun 23 12:18
oiaohmJustin_-: swap is your slowest ram anything that results in anything extra ending up there is bad.Jun 23 12:18
MinceRi thought linq as a library featureJun 23 12:18
MinceRdunno what the others areJun 23 12:18
oiaohmJustin_-: there is a issueJun 23 12:18
oiaohmJustin_-: the .net bytecode in the standard is non functional.Jun 23 12:18
oiaohmJustin_-: does not work in MS .net engines Jun 23 12:19
oiaohmJustin_-: properly.Jun 23 12:19
Justin_-MinceR: linq is language level, ref is like void set1(ref int N) { N = 1; } and it modifies a variable of the callerJun 23 12:19
oiaohmJustin_-: if standard was correct ms patent promise would be valid.Jun 23 12:19
MinceRso it's passing by referenceJun 23 12:19
Justin_-yepJun 23 12:19
oiaohmJustin_-: but since MS .net does not match standard patent promise is not worth anything.Jun 23 12:20
Justin_-oiaohm: as far as I know the il format in the standard is usedJun 23 12:20
cubezzznext thing will be microsoft bios...Jun 23 12:20
Justin_-if it wasn't, mono wouldn't be able to run .net programsJun 23 12:20
cubezzzi'm sure they're working on it :-/Jun 23 12:20
Justin_-cubezzz: I'm surprised it hasn't been doneJun 23 12:20
Justin_-writing a bios isn't that complexJun 23 12:21
cubezzzit's not easy!Jun 23 12:21
cubezzztry it sometimeJun 23 12:21
oiaohmJustin_-: in fact no.Jun 23 12:21
cubezzza lot of chips are under NDAJun 23 12:21
Justin_-I played around with the cromwell source a bitJun 23 12:21
MinceRafaik java effectively passes objects by referenceJun 23 12:21
oiaohmJustin_-: mono.net contains many documented hacks where they have had to leave il format standard.Jun 23 12:21
oiaohmJustin_-: so MS.net programs work.Jun 23 12:22
MinceR(passes the reference itself by value, which is the same thing)Jun 23 12:22

Justin_-MinceR: ref and out apply to primitives and references themselvesJun 23 12:22
oiaohmJustin_-: reason why .net programs are not very good in mono.net does trace to some points MS.net leaves standard.Jun 23 12:23
Justin_-like int n = 1; set1(ref n);Jun 23 12:23
Justin_-or I guess I should say int n = 2;Jun 23 12:23
MinceRin java, you could box that int in an Integer and then it's an objectJun 23 12:23
Justin_-MinceR: right, there are workaroundsJun 23 12:23
MinceRyes, for example, my workaround for c# being an unusable, undocumented patent trap is using java instead :>Jun 23 12:24
cubezzzno one advocates APL? :)Jun 23 12:24
MinceRnot meJun 23 12:24
Justin_-I don't know about it being unstable, I don't know of any case where syntax from a previous version was broken in a future versionJun 23 12:24
MinceRi said "unusable", not "unstable"Jun 23 12:25
Justin_-oh sorryJun 23 12:25
MinceRthough it might as well be that tooJun 23 12:25
MinceR(especially when it's layered on top of windows :> )Jun 23 12:25
oiaohmJustin_-: Even between .net versions they are not syntax compadible.Jun 23 12:25
Justin_-I find it pretty usable, I could restrict myself to java syntax and write almost identical code in c#, I just like the dozens of extra features in c#Jun 23 12:25

MinceRand i absolutely hate Windows.Forms, it was obsolete when they first thought of itJun 23 12:26
Justin_-c# is basically a superset of java, you can choose not to use features you don't likeJun 23 12:26
cubezzzMinceR, I can write APL programs for many different platformsJun 23 12:26
oiaohmJustin_-: .net is not mature yet.Jun 23 12:26
Justin_-I agreeJun 23 12:26
Justin_-windows forms were crapJun 23 12:26
MinceRthey're of course even more obsolete nowJun 23 12:26
Justin_-and wpf is amazing but it's definitely patent encumberedJun 23 12:26
oiaohmJustin_-: there are other languages you can use with java JVM;sJun 23 12:26
cubezzzMinceR, what languages do you use besides java and c?Jun 23 12:26
cubezzzjust curiousJun 23 12:27
MinceRdoes wpf do widget layouting already or is it still just "let's just throw these widgets on this canvas somewhere randomly"?Jun 23 12:27
MinceRcubezzz: c++, python, bash, csh (though i don't like that), tcl (though that i like even less)Jun 23 12:27
MinceRawkJun 23 12:27
MinceRperlJun 23 12:27
Justin_-there are a lot of options for layout in wpf, you can choose the layout engine you want or plug in your ownJun 23 12:27
MinceR(thankfully) very rarely phpJun 23 12:27
Justin_-wpf works a lot like html and css, it's based on a markup system called xaml, based on xmlJun 23 12:27
MinceRJustin_-: i mean, can you arrange your widgets in stacked HBoxes/VBoxes and have WPF automatically set their size and position properly?Jun 23 12:28
cubezzzAPL is interesting thoughJun 23 12:28
MinceRoh, so it's an HTML GUI toolkit?Jun 23 12:28
cubezzzI know I'm like the only one here that uses itJun 23 12:28
Justin_-MinceR: yes, there are built-in features for that and you can also implement it yourself if you want more controlJun 23 12:28
Justin_-MinceR: it's similar yesJun 23 12:28
MinceRi don't feel much enthusiasm for that ideaJun 23 12:28
oiaohmJustin_-: have you worked with qtJun 23 12:28
MinceRif i was building webapps, that would be different, of course...Jun 23 12:29
Justin_-well no it's not based on html and css, which are a disgusting messJun 23 12:29
Justin_-in my opinionJun 23 12:29
Justin_-but the concept is similar in some waysJun 23 12:29
MinceRhtml and css seem fine for webapp developmentJun 23 12:29
cubezzzkind of hard to avoid htmlJun 23 12:29
oiaohmJustin_-: you mind then understand why with a qt background I don't see wpf as fun.Jun 23 12:29
MinceRnot so much for plain hypertextJun 23 12:29
Justin_-you write a document in xml, define objects, and provide code-behind as properties within those objects, then the code is executed on .netJun 23 12:30
cubezzzanyone use motif? :)Jun 23 12:30
MinceRi actually do use some a bit of motif at workJun 23 12:30
oiaohmJustin_-: have you or have not used qtJun 23 12:30

Justin_-noJun 23 12:30
cubezzzoiaohm, you writing KDE programs?Jun 23 12:31
oiaohmcubezzz: no mine just depend on qtJun 23 12:31
oiaohmJustin_-: qml is a mix of layout and javascriptJun 23 12:32
Justin_-ohJun 23 12:32
Justin_-most gui toolkits developed in the last 10 years are like thisJun 23 12:32
Justin_-mvc, model view controllerJun 23 12:32
Justin_-with the gui laid out independently of codeJun 23 12:32
oiaohmqml is a different beast.Jun 23 12:33
Justin_-and in a format that allows gui elements to be organized in different ways depending on the display or other factorsJun 23 12:33
oiaohmWhere you can write the complete program in it.Jun 23 12:33
Justin_-ohJun 23 12:33
oiaohmOr you can use it to dymamically change the interface on the fly.Jun 23 12:33
oiaohmYes you write interface animations in qml with qtJun 23 12:33
Justin_-are there animation features or do you have to write code to do an animation?Jun 23 12:34
oiaohmJustin_-: animation features are providedJun 23 12:34
Justin_-like wpf has vectors and timelines, someone who can't program can make a gui with animationsJun 23 12:34
oiaohmJustin_-: and you can join them up how ever you like.Jun 23 12:34
Justin_-similar to flashJun 23 12:34
Justin_-niceJun 23 12:34
oiaohmYou can do insane things in the javascript like reorder the complete interface on the fly.Jun 23 12:35
MinceRnot the best pitches i've ever seen... "someone who can't program can make a gui", "similar to flash" ;)Jun 23 12:35
oiaohmLike have button float around screen changing order.Jun 23 12:36
Justin_-I mean vectors and timelines are basically flash featuresJun 23 12:36
cubezzzflash seems like a control mechanism on the userJun 23 12:36
oiaohmJustin_-: note I said dyanmic.Jun 23 12:36
MinceRi don't think flash invented vector graphics :>Jun 23 12:36
Justin_-you define a vector, move ahead in time, redefine it, and then the engine morphs the vector from the first version to the secondJun 23 12:36
oiaohmvectors and times lines are a static constracts.Jun 23 12:36
Justin_-no I agree it didn'tJun 23 12:36
Justin_-but wpf is very flash-esque in terms of its vector and animation supportJun 23 12:36
oiaohmVery limititing.Jun 23 12:37
oiaohmqt I can go 3d if I wish.Jun 23 12:37
cubezzzugh, that's another microsoft technology isn't it?Jun 23 12:37
cubezzzwpfJun 23 12:37
oiaohmLike drawing windows straight on opengl textures.Jun 23 12:37
Justin_-I don't see any obvious room for improvement in wpf's vector implementation, it seems like intelligent people sat down and carefully thought about how it should lookJun 23 12:37
cubezzzyou will be absorbed :)Jun 23 12:37
Justin_-and about non-programmers designing guis, personally I think that separation is a good thingJun 23 12:38
MinceRwpf, more like wtfJun 23 12:38
MinceR:>Jun 23 12:38
Justin_-I mean the gui elements should be programmatically accessible, just not programmatically basedJun 23 12:38
cubezzzI'll design my own gui's thanksJun 23 12:38
oiaohmJustin_-: qml idea is simple.Jun 23 12:38
oiaohmNon-programmers can go simple.Jun 23 12:38
Justin_-nice, do itJun 23 12:38
MinceRi prefer guis designed by programmersJun 23 12:38
MinceRthey tend to be functional :>Jun 23 12:39
oiaohmBut with a little programming skill gui coders can do a lot.Jun 23 12:39
oiaohmyet qml can be indepentant to the back end coders.Jun 23 12:39
cubezzzI like VM/SP's ideas tooJun 23 12:39
cubezzzall textualJun 23 12:39
oiaohmBasically qt split the graphical coders from the back end coders.Jun 23 12:39
Justin_-you can do var C = new Canvas() { Width = 800, Height = 600 }; var B = new Button() { Left = 100 , Top = 50 , Text = "hi" , OnClick = () =>  { MessageBox("hi") } }; C.Children.Add(B); etcJun 23 12:39

schestowitzI'm finishing some research ATM. I have been writing a report and also documenting all the code, data, etc., making it readily available and easy to use by anyone who may wish to continue the work. While some of the research shows the inability of particular method to beat state-of-the-art off-the-shelf products, one might wish to have another stab at it. If every path was successful, it would not be research. :-)Jun 23 17:52

scienteshow the fuck is fedora going to ship locked-down GPL3 code (grub 2)?Jun 23 01:20
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[fontana/@fontana] sched.org says my !LinuxCon talk is currently ranked 26 in popularity while @bkuhn's is way down at 45 #winningJun 23 01:24
scienteshowever this ubuntu decision is awesomesauseJun 23 01:27
sebsebsebscientes: uh what about other distros that arent' Fedora or Ubuntu?Jun 23 01:27
sebsebseband that aren't based on them as wellJun 23 01:28
scientessebsebseb, they can actually just ship the ubuntu preloader, with their own kernelsJun 23 01:28
sebsebseboh okJun 23 01:28
scientesif they use the ubuntu bootloader, they can use any kernel they want to Jun 23 01:28
sebsebsebnot really been following this stuff much, but seems Ubuntu are getting rid of Grub w2Jun 23 01:28
scientesthis is WAYYY better than fedora's decisionJun 23 01:28
scientesnahJun 23 01:28
scientesthey actually say right there that they chainload to grub 2 if secureboot is disabledJun 23 01:29
sebsebsebokJun 23 01:29
sebsebsebyeah think I read something ilke thatJun 23 01:29
sebsebsebanyway new boot loader only for UEFI machines by default I guess?Jun 23 01:29
scientesthis solution is pure awesomeness out of a bad situationJun 23 01:29
scientesany distro can just use ubuntu's bootloader to work out of the box on secure-boot systemsJun 23 01:29
sebsebseboh okJun 23 01:30
sebsebseb,but Canoncial still got a key from Microsoft or that company linked to themJun 23 01:31
sebsebsebor whatever?Jun 23 01:31
scientesyes they have their bootloader signed with a key that is signed by verisign (re: microsoft)Jun 23 01:31
scientesbut they are not locking down the whole chainJun 23 01:31
sebsebsebexactly so like some articles are saying or whatever, however they want to spin it, they are still getting a key from MicrsooftJun 23 01:31
scientesyes they areJun 23 01:32
scientesthey also have an ubuntu key that OEMs can installJun 23 01:32
sebsebsebokJun 23 01:32
scientesbut for the most part if you want to ship ubuntu, don't ship secure bootJun 23 01:32
scientesor even ship coreboot--(google is)Jun 23 01:32

TechrightsBot-tr-> Title: Is Calligra A Great Alternative to LibreOffice? .::. Size~: 44.52 KBJun 23 08:15
roy"@Bugs_Bane - that's a very interresting point. In fact, I've seen inconsistencies in displaying ODT files [which were created in LO] in both Calligra and Abword ... which makes me think it may be LibeOffice' fault. Need to make some more tests to nail it down."Jun 23 08:15
roy"Jun 23 08:15
roy@EXN - I just saved a file in ODT format and word is unable to open it. Now for me that's not a problem, but on the one hand I interact with a number of people who struggle to use a computer, let alone worrying what applications to use to open a file in an odd format. On the other hand I deal with people in business, and, like it or not, the only acceptable format for them is that chosen by Microsoft.Jun 23 08:15
royI'm curious as to which versions of word have problems opening previous versions? I have .doc files going back to1995 that I am able to open in Office 2008 for Mac.Jun 23 08:15
roy"Jun 23 08:15
roy"Jun 23 08:15
roy@Ancient_Mariner - well, you see, serious businesses usually use PDF format, because it is the only way to avoid displaying and formatting problems. The smaller ones don't usually get the whole point and use Word because that's the only thing they know and that's what they use in HOME. Business policies are usualy strict on what document formats are allowed, what type of software is allowed, what can and what cannot be installed on computers.Jun 23 08:15
royFor example, in my old workplace when I used to be an admin we had some policies like &quot;ODT internally - PDF for the clientJun 23 08:15
roy"Jun 23 08:15
roy"I've only worked in Pharma/healthcare/diagnostics, but all the companies I've interacted with have used word for documents, excel for data, powerpoint for presentations. PDF was reserved for official documents sent to customers that could not be changed (of course they can be changed, but most ordinary people didn't have the software to do so). I'm not sure what you'd consider a serious business - the last corp I worked for was Beckman Jun 23 08:16
royCoulter."Jun 23 08:16
roy"Well, by &quot;serious&quot; I mean those who do care for interoperability and their workflow, not the actual size of the company ;) I was an IT admin in middle-sized company in Poland [mostly international steel trading] and couple other places. I obviously have no actual  knowledge of US ecosystem, as I've never even been to US, so the policies I'm talking about may be a &quot;standard&quot; here, but not necessarily in other countries/Jun 23 08:16
roystates. I suppose it is a real pain to have local software monopoly, but I'l be glad to know your opinion in this subject"Jun 23 08:16
roy"I'd guess that the IT depts of almost every US and UK company would see microsoft software as the universal standard that guarantees interoperability. There are a few that use open source (as far as I recall, Peavey, the music company do) but they really are a rarity. Beckman (&gt;10,000 worldwide) had a standard build for PCs which included microsoft office, and they seemed typical of all the other businesses I've worked with."Jun 23 08:16
roy"OpenOffice right now feels a bit like Firefox did in early noughties. There's a surprisingly huge number of casual self-selected users."Jun 23 08:16
roy"Jun 23 08:17
royWell, If we are about to point our finger on anyone, then MS would be the one to be blamed. Closed document format specification leaves open source developers pretty much no choice but guessing. It's still a wonder that they eventually came up with some sort of &quot;support&quot; for this closed spec od DOC/DOCX. Jun 23 08:17
royPersonaly I use Linux exclusively, mixing it only with variety of other UNIX-based OSs like *BSD, occasionaly OSX [IF I really have to]. From all of this I must say ODT is the only solution that works right OOTB on every platform I use. Obviously it works on Windows too, but I don't knowJun 23 08:17

Justin_-hey I've seen some articles on techrights.org saying c# is a poor choice, I wondered if anyone could tell me more and what the alternatives areJun 23 15:42
MinceRfirst of all, there's the language they copied badly to make it: javaJun 23 15:42
MinceRbut in general it depends on what you're trying to doJun 23 15:43
Justin_-I want type safety, garbage collection, no risk of memory corruption, and native performance as a minimumJun 23 15:44
MinceRD might also do that, though i haven't tried it yetJun 23 15:45
Justin_-and no need to work alongside a language missing these features, like the C/python paradigmJun 23 15:45
MinceRyou can use a garbage collector with C++Jun 23 15:45
MinceRbut yes, the primary answer would seem to be Java thereJun 23 15:46
Justin_-I really like C++, a miss some things from C++ in C#, but memory corruption is an issueJun 23 15:46
MinceRwhat memory corruption?Jun 23 15:46
MinceRmisuse of pointers?Jun 23 15:47
Justin_-yeahJun 23 15:47
MinceRyou could use safer pointer classes, i thinkJun 23 15:47
MinceR(or smarter)Jun 23 15:48
Justin_-trueJun 23 15:48
Justin_-there are details though about using a gc and safe memory access in C++ that I didn't find workable, it's a lot of why I switched to C#Jun 23 15:49
Justin_-D looks interesting though, is the performance good?Jun 23 15:50
MinceRQt also offers implicit sharing which lets you hand objects around as if you were passing them by value and yet avoid most of the overhead from itJun 23 15:51

MinceRPyPy, Psyco, PyrexJun 23 15:54
MinceRand many othersJun 23 15:54
Justin_-true but I mean in dynamically typed languages where any symbol can have any meaning and be changed at any time, the framework has to be there to accommodate those changesJun 23 15:55
MinceRindeedJun 23 15:56
MinceRbut that framework doesn't have to be particularly heavyJun 23 15:56
Justin_-I don't know but you definitely can't just assert that 'X' and 'Y' will be ints and compile X+=Y to an "add" instruction and leave it at thatJun 23 15:57
MinceRtheoretically, a JIT compiler/optimizer can do thatJun 23 15:57
MinceRand be ready for the case when they happen to be something else :)Jun 23 15:57
Justin_-rightJun 23 15:57
Justin_-javascript is getting pretty speedy based on thatJun 23 15:57
Justin_-I don't like the dynamic approach programmatically either thoughJun 23 15:58

Justin_-because there is no compiler, no way to assert ahead of time that 'X' will even be defined, let alone with a type that is coherent with your statementJun 23 15:59
Justin_-so you have to just run your code and hope you notice if something isn't doing what it shouldJun 23 15:59

Justin_-I can't exactly tell you why I don't like java, I just find myself having to work harderJun 23 16:03
Justin_-everything feels fussier, more typing, more hoops to jump through to get things doneJun 23 16:03
Justin_-and it seems to have a lot of classes I don't wantJun 23 16:04
MinceRat least it's properly documented, unlike c#Jun 23 16:04
Justin_-I thought the opposite was true, tell me moreJun 23 16:05
MinceRi found the official documentation for c# sorely lacking, with the (badly named) "Remarks" section being empty or just missing what the class was meant to doJun 23 16:07
MinceRalso, iirc in java there is a way to initialize a static const member of a non-primitive typeJun 23 16:07
MinceRin c# i ended up making it non-static or non-constant, i can't remember whichJun 23 16:07
Justin_-right I completely agree, sometimes the remarks sections are just bizarre, and C# is really fussy about class member initializations for some reason and it's so infuriatingJun 23 16:08

Justin_-it's ghettoJun 23 16:09
Justin_-it's bad practice too, it's just unclean, splits up the definition of members so you have to poke around to get the whole picture, which kind of conflicts with the goals of c#, it's bizarreJun 23 16:10

Justin_-I'm not advocating c# as superior to every other possibility, it has a lot of drawbacks and something better will come along if it hasn't alreadyJun 23 16:27
oiaohmJustin_-: really for a person like me there are a lot of other solutions to c# including luaJun 23 16:28
oiaohmlua natively can call out to c and c++ libraries.Jun 23 16:28
Justin_-right that's what I'm saying I don't want, a language that depends on code written in other languages, and that always will due to design limitationsJun 23 16:29
oiaohmJustin_-: c# cannot work without code written in other languages.Jun 23 16:30
oiaohmJustin_-: just as much as luaJun 23 16:30
Justin_-why?Jun 23 16:30
oiaohmlua is the smallest jit in existance so small it fits in the cpu l1 cache.Jun 23 16:31
oiaohmSo can be as fast as native code for real.Jun 23 16:31
oiaohmIn fact at times faster.Jun 23 16:31
oiaohmYes this is why lua is used in some games for game logicJun 23 16:32
MinceRJustin_-: because those languages need a VM of some kind, which can't run on itselfJun 23 16:32
oiaohmits faster to use lua than native code.Jun 23 16:32
MinceRin the end, you'll need a language to write part (or whole) of the OS in that doesn't need much runtime support, like CJun 23 16:32
Justin_-c# doesn't run in a virtual machine, it's compiled into native machine code and excutedJun 23 16:33
MinceReven then, kernel code won't have access to most of the standard libraryJun 23 16:33
MinceRafaik that native code still needs runtime supportJun 23 16:33
oiaohmJustin_-: you did not jsut get it.Jun 23 16:33
oiaohmlua is that small that it acts like you are using a compressed binary.Jun 23 16:33
Justin_-you can write a bytecode to machine code translator in almost any language, it's simple logic and mathJun 23 16:33
MinceRmany languages are compiled to native code in runtimeJun 23 16:33
oiaohmSo cpu can hold more executable code in its cache.Jun 23 16:34
Justin_-oiaohm: I understand, that sounds like a real advantage for performance in a lot of casesJun 23 16:34
MinceRyes, but that translator isn't going to write the code that manages your memory and objectsJun 23 16:34
MinceRlet alone lower level code like interfacing with the hardware and task schedulingJun 23 16:34
Justin_-microsoft has a gc written in c#, I had an email conversation about a year ago with someone at there about itJun 23 16:35
oiaohmJustin_-: then being able to reach back to c and c++ libraries for stuff that is not good for lua makes lua very had to beat.Jun 23 16:35
Justin_-they're working on a 100% c# kernel, completely self hostedJun 23 16:35
oiaohmJustin_-: I have seen there c# kernel.Jun 23 16:35
Justin_-the initial bootstapping machine code being emitted by the jit on another machineJun 23 16:35
MinceRfor how long have they been "working" on it?Jun 23 16:35
oiaohmJustin_-: it is a failure.Jun 23 16:35
oiaohmJustin_-: microsoft has given up on it.Jun 23 16:36
Justin_-they had a working version years ago, bootableJun 23 16:36
Justin_-I think the project started maybe 5 years ago, I could be wrongJun 23 16:36
oiaohmJustin_-: Yes but it still was a failure.Jun 23 16:36
oiaohmIssue is c# operation does not match how hardware operates.Jun 23 16:36
Justin_-I don't know about that either way but the concept wasn't a failure, they were able to design a basic self hosted c# kernel, boot it, interface with hardware, and dynamically execute programs written in c#Jun 23 16:37
oiaohmIts like all the attempts to make a pure java OSJun 23 16:37

oiaohmJustin_-: lua or forth based OS would be more possible than java and .netJun 23 16:58
Justin_-oiaohm: c# has no performance hit for accessing pointers, it emits the same machine code as CJun 23 16:58
Justin_-you can translate a C program directly into c# using unsafe syntax and compile the identical machine codeJun 23 16:58
oiaohmJustin_-: it does when you start trying to take the data back into c# oopJun 23 16:58
oiaohmJustin_-: same with java oopJun 23 16:58
oiaohmJustin_-:  the oop of the language does not match what the hardware wants.Jun 23 16:59
Justin_-I agree with that, as soon as you start using c# arrays you have bounds checking and that involves some extra instructionsJun 23 16:59

Justin_-you could compile the entire linux kernel using a c# jit compilerJun 23 17:03
oiaohmJustin_-: c++ has been got away with.Jun 23 17:03
Justin_-by translating the linux source into c# with unsafe syntaxJun 23 17:03
Justin_-and you'd produce the identical machine codeJun 23 17:03
Justin_-language syntax isn't that complicatedJun 23 17:04
oiaohmJustin_-: most likely you would not produce identical machine code.Jun 23 17:04
oiaohmJustin_-: unless you made something completely insane to read.Jun 23 17:04
Justin_-there are a lot of languages that all express the same simple logic with different sugar, like pascal and basicJun 23 17:04
Justin_-if you translate a C program into pascal, it generates the same machine codeJun 23 17:04
oiaohmLOLJun 23 17:04
cubezzzpffftJun 23 17:05
Justin_-I'm on techrights.org/irc-channel/Jun 23 17:05

oiaohmThere are somethings pascel flat out forbids.Jun 23 17:05
Justin_-I don't know about all cases but the basic concept of pointer arithmetic compiles into the same machine code, it's not that complicatedJun 23 17:05
Justin_-mov ebx, eax[12] etcJun 23 17:06
oiaohmJustin_-: difference is C was not designed to forbid anything from the machine code levle.Jun 23 17:06
oiaohmC# java pascel and basic all forbid doing particular things.Jun 23 17:06
Justin_-actually ansi C disallows a lot of things that are common practice, like assigning a function pointer to a void*Jun 23 17:06
MinceR180447 < Justin_-> if you translate a C program into pascal, it generates the same machine codeJun 23 17:06
MinceRmost C programs can't be directly expressed in pascalJun 23 17:06
cubezzzI bet two different C compilers don't generate the exact same code eitherJun 23 17:07
oiaohmJustin_-: sorry ansi C allows assigning a function to void * by cast.Jun 23 17:07
Justin_-I'm not saying the entire program file will be bit for bit identical between two different languages or compilers, I mean that A+B will generate an "add" instruction, P[10] will generate "eax[10]" etc..Jun 23 17:07
oiaohmJustin_-: its compliers that hate that.Jun 23 17:08
Justin_-oiaohm: that's not accurate, ansi C defines function and data pointers as separate, so that for example you can have a machine where a function pointer is an index into a static array of functions, and a data pointer is a pointer into a memory busJun 23 17:09

Justin_-or for example you can have function pointers that have added security or stability data for whatever reasonJun 23 17:09
Justin_-like canary values or whateverJun 23 17:09
oiaohmJustin_-: notes I said cast.Jun 23 17:09
oiaohm(void *) to convert the function pointer to at data pointer.Jun 23 17:10
Justin_-yes I'm saying ansi C says you can't cast them, any more than (char)2181 is necessarily valid (2181 being > 127)Jun 23 17:10
oiaohmIt is allowed.Jun 23 17:10
Justin_-by your compiler maybeJun 23 17:10
Justin_-not by the standardJun 23 17:10
oiaohmNo I have read the standard.Jun 23 17:10
oiaohmIts not forbin.Jun 23 17:10
Justin_-maybe we read different documentsJun 23 17:10
oiaohmA function pointer is an address.Jun 23 17:11
Justin_-that's an implementation detailJun 23 17:11
oiaohmYou are allowed to extract that address to void*Jun 23 17:11
Justin_-you are allowed to access the bytes of a function pointerJun 23 17:11
oiaohmNow to use it as a function again you have to conver tit back.Jun 23 17:11
Justin_-but for example, a machine where function pointers are 6 bytes and data pointers are 4 bytes is valid under ansi CJun 23 17:11
oiaohmAnd what lenth is a void *Jun 23 17:12
Justin_-like sizeof(void (*)(void)) > sizeof(void*) is valid under ansi CJun 23 17:12
oiaohmEvil pointJun 23 17:12
cubezzzC# is an imitation of java, so they sayJun 23 17:12
Justin_-I agree, it isJun 23 17:12
oiaohmTechically sizeof(void*) is invalid.Jun 23 17:12
MinceRc# is a bad clone of java :>Jun 23 17:13
cubezzzwhat I don't understand is why anyone would want to use C#Jun 23 17:13
Justin_-I don't like everything in .net but I honestly prefer c# syntax to java, and I prefer the bytecode systemJun 23 17:13
cubezzzyou can use bytecode without using C#Jun 23 17:14
cubezzzmake your own bytecodeJun 23 17:14
oiaohmReally the bytecode in .net is 32 and 64 bit picky.Jun 23 17:14
oiaohmIts not that great.Jun 23 17:14
Justin_-right I mean I prefer c# to the java language, and I prefer .net il to java bytecodeJun 23 17:14

Justin_-I don't think there's a stability issue with eitherJun 23 17:15
oiaohmJustin_-: same with luaJun 23 17:15
oiaohmJustin_-: O yes there is.Jun 23 17:15
MinceRso, what's the difference between c# syntax and java? :>Jun 23 17:15
MinceRa few keywords that differ?Jun 23 17:15
cubezzzI'm not a big java fan either, but it's tolerable I guessJun 23 17:15
oiaohmJustin_-: il allowed address pointers along it to be code it.Jun 23 17:15
iophkThe apps I've seen in C# have been bloated and unstable.Jun 23 17:15
oiaohmJustin_-: 32 bit and 64 bitJun 23 17:15
oiaohmJustin_-: arch sentitive.Jun 23 17:15
Justin_-cubezzz: afaik that's not true about the c# programming language or il, they're both standardized, explicitly released, and also just a collection of unoriginal ideasJun 23 17:15
Justin_-but yes parts of .net are a problemJun 23 17:16
oiaohmJustin_-: really MS does not offically release a il to native code complier.Jun 23 17:17
oiaohmJustin_-: jit sux unless they are small enough to fit in cpu l1Jun 23 17:17
Justin_-MinceR: c# has a lot of extra featuresJun 23 17:17
oiaohmJustin_-: do you know why.Jun 23 17:17
Justin_-lambda expressions, object initializations, ref and out keywords, etcJun 23 17:17
Justin_-linqJun 23 17:17
oiaohmJustin_-: convert byte code to native code in ramJun 23 17:17
cubezzzMicrosoft just wants to take over everythingJun 23 17:17
oiaohmends up with blocks of memory that must end up in swap.Jun 23 17:18
Justin_-cubezzz: I agreeJun 23 17:18
cubezzzC# is just another example Jun 23 17:18
MinceRi thought java had lambda expressionsJun 23 17:18
Justin_-but the c# language syntax is a standard, it's not an issue legallyJun 23 17:18
oiaohmJustin_-: swap is your slowest ram anything that results in anything extra ending up there is bad.Jun 23 17:18
MinceRi thought linq as a library featureJun 23 17:18
MinceRdunno what the others areJun 23 17:18
oiaohmJustin_-: there is a issueJun 23 17:18
oiaohmJustin_-: the .net bytecode in the standard is non functional.Jun 23 17:18
oiaohmJustin_-: does not work in MS .net engines Jun 23 17:19
oiaohmJustin_-: properly.Jun 23 17:19
Justin_-MinceR: linq is language level, ref is like void set1(ref int N) { N = 1; } and it modifies a variable of the callerJun 23 17:19
oiaohmJustin_-: if standard was correct ms patent promise would be valid.Jun 23 17:19
MinceRso it's passing by referenceJun 23 17:19
Justin_-yepJun 23 17:19
oiaohmJustin_-: but since MS .net does not match standard patent promise is not worth anything.Jun 23 17:20
Justin_-oiaohm: as far as I know the il format in the standard is usedJun 23 17:20
cubezzznext thing will be microsoft bios...Jun 23 17:20
Justin_-if it wasn't, mono wouldn't be able to run .net programsJun 23 17:20
cubezzzi'm sure they're working on it :-/Jun 23 17:20
Justin_-cubezzz: I'm surprised it hasn't been doneJun 23 17:20
Justin_-writing a bios isn't that complexJun 23 17:21
cubezzzit's not easy!Jun 23 17:21
cubezzztry it sometimeJun 23 17:21
oiaohmJustin_-: in fact no.Jun 23 17:21
cubezzza lot of chips are under NDAJun 23 17:21
Justin_-I played around with the cromwell source a bitJun 23 17:21
MinceRafaik java effectively passes objects by referenceJun 23 17:21
oiaohmJustin_-: mono.net contains many documented hacks where they have had to leave il format standard.Jun 23 17:21
oiaohmJustin_-: so MS.net programs work.Jun 23 17:22

Justin_-MinceR: ref and out apply to primitives and references themselvesJun 23 17:22
oiaohmJustin_-: reason why .net programs are not very good in mono.net does trace to some points MS.net leaves standard.Jun 23 17:23
Justin_-like int n = 1; set1(ref n);Jun 23 17:23
Justin_-or I guess I should say int n = 2;Jun 23 17:23
MinceRin java, you could box that int in an Integer and then it's an objectJun 23 17:23
Justin_-MinceR: right, there are workaroundsJun 23 17:23
MinceRyes, for example, my workaround for c# being an unusable, undocumented patent trap is using java instead :>Jun 23 17:24
cubezzzno one advocates APL? :)Jun 23 17:24
MinceRnot meJun 23 17:24
Justin_-I don't know about it being unstable, I don't know of any case where syntax from a previous version was broken in a future versionJun 23 17:24
MinceRi said "unusable", not "unstable"Jun 23 17:25
Justin_-oh sorryJun 23 17:25
MinceRthough it might as well be that tooJun 23 17:25
MinceR(especially when it's layered on top of windows :> )Jun 23 17:25
oiaohmJustin_-: Even between .net versions they are not syntax compadible.Jun 23 17:25

cubezzzMinceR, I can write APL programs for many different platformsJun 23 17:26
Justin_-c# is basically a superset of java, you can choose not to use features you don't likeJun 23 17:26
oiaohmJustin_-: .net is not mature yet.Jun 23 17:26
Justin_-I agreeJun 23 17:26
Justin_-windows forms were crapJun 23 17:26
MinceRthey're of course even more obsolete nowJun 23 17:26
Justin_-and wpf is amazing but it's definitely patent encumberedJun 23 17:26
oiaohmJustin_-: there are other languages you can use with java JVM;sJun 23 17:26
cubezzzMinceR, what languages do you use besides java and c?Jun 23 17:26
cubezzzjust curiousJun 23 17:27
MinceRdoes wpf do widget layouting already or is it still just "let's just throw these widgets on this canvas somewhere randomly"?Jun 23 17:27
MinceRcubezzz: c++, python, bash, csh (though i don't like that), tcl (though that i like even less)Jun 23 17:27
MinceRawkJun 23 17:27
MinceRperlJun 23 17:27
Justin_-there are a lot of options for layout in wpf, you can choose the layout engine you want or plug in your ownJun 23 17:27
MinceR(thankfully) very rarely phpJun 23 17:27
Justin_-wpf works a lot like html and css, it's based on a markup system called xaml, based on xmlJun 23 17:27
MinceRJustin_-: i mean, can you arrange your widgets in stacked HBoxes/VBoxes and have WPF automatically set their size and position properly?Jun 23 17:28
cubezzzAPL is interesting thoughJun 23 17:28
MinceRoh, so it's an HTML GUI toolkit?Jun 23 17:28
cubezzzI know I'm like the only one here that uses itJun 23 17:28
Justin_-MinceR: yes, there are built-in features for that and you can also implement it yourself if you want more controlJun 23 17:28

MinceRi don't feel much enthusiasm for that ideaJun 23 17:28

Justin_-but the concept is similar in some waysJun 23 17:29
MinceRhtml and css seem fine for webapp developmentJun 23 17:29
cubezzzkind of hard to avoid htmlJun 23 17:29
oiaohmJustin_-: you mind then understand why with a qt background I don't see wpf as fun.Jun 23 17:29
MinceRnot so much for plain hypertextJun 23 17:29
Justin_-you write a document in xml, define objects, and provide code-behind as properties within those objects, then the code is executed on .netJun 23 17:30

cubezzzoiaohm, you writing KDE programs?Jun 23 17:31
oiaohmcubezzz: no mine just depend on qtJun 23 17:31
oiaohmJustin_-: qml is a mix of layout and javascriptJun 23 17:32

Justin_-most gui toolkits developed in the last 10 years are like thisJun 23 17:32
Justin_-mvc, model view controllerJun 23 17:32
Justin_-with the gui laid out independently of codeJun 23 17:32
oiaohmqml is a different beast.Jun 23 17:33

oiaohmWhere you can write the complete program in it.Jun 23 17:33
Justin_-ohJun 23 17:33
oiaohmOr you can use it to dymamically change the interface on the fly.Jun 23 17:33
oiaohmYes you write interface animations in qml with qtJun 23 17:33
Justin_-are there animation features or do you have to write code to do an animation?Jun 23 17:34
oiaohmJustin_-: animation features are providedJun 23 17:34
Justin_-like wpf has vectors and timelines, someone who can't program can make a gui with animationsJun 23 17:34
oiaohmJustin_-: and you can join them up how ever you like.Jun 23 17:34
Justin_-similar to flashJun 23 17:34
Justin_-niceJun 23 17:34
oiaohmYou can do insane things in the javascript like reorder the complete interface on the fly.Jun 23 17:35
MinceRnot the best pitches i've ever seen... "someone who can't program can make a gui", "similar to flash" ;)Jun 23 17:35
oiaohmLike have button float around screen changing order.Jun 23 17:36
Justin_-I mean vectors and timelines are basically flash featuresJun 23 17:36
cubezzzflash seems like a control mechanism on the userJun 23 17:36
oiaohmJustin_-: note I said dyanmic.Jun 23 17:36
MinceRi don't think flash invented vector graphics :>Jun 23 17:36
Justin_-you define a vector, move ahead in time, redefine it, and then the engine morphs the vector from the first version to the secondJun 23 17:36
oiaohmvectors and times lines are a static constracts.Jun 23 17:36
Justin_-no I agree it didn'tJun 23 17:36
Justin_-but wpf is very flash-esque in terms of its vector and animation supportJun 23 17:36
oiaohmVery limititing.Jun 23 17:37

oiaohmLike drawing windows straight on opengl textures.Jun 23 17:37
Justin_-I don't see any obvious room for improvement in wpf's vector implementation, it seems like intelligent people sat down and carefully thought about how it should lookJun 23 17:37
cubezzzyou will be absorbed :)Jun 23 17:37
Justin_-and about non-programmers designing guis, personally I think that separation is a good thingJun 23 17:38
MinceRwpf, more like wtfJun 23 17:38
MinceR:>Jun 23 17:38
Justin_-I mean the gui elements should be programmatically accessible, just not programmatically basedJun 23 17:38
cubezzzI'll design my own gui's thanksJun 23 17:38
oiaohmJustin_-: qml idea is simple.Jun 23 17:38
oiaohmNon-programmers can go simple.Jun 23 17:38

cubezzzI like VM/SP's ideas tooJun 23 17:39
cubezzzall textualJun 23 17:39
oiaohmBasically qt split the graphical coders from the back end coders.Jun 23 17:39
Justin_-you can do var C = new Canvas() { Width = 800, Height = 600 }; var B = new Button() { Left = 100 , Top = 50 , Text = "hi" , OnClick = () =>  { MessageBox("hi") } }; C.Children.Add(B); etcJun 23 17:39

schestowitzI'm finishing some research ATM. I have been writing a report and also documenting all the code, data, etc., making it readily available and easy to use by anyone who may wish to continue the work. While some of the research shows the inability of particular method to beat state-of-the-art off-the-shelf products, one might wish to have another stab at it. If every path was successful, it would not be research. :-)Jun 23 22:52

DaemonFCwith this government money that goes to quacks, kooks, and highly questionable and outright pseudoscientific and/or trivial research, we could be doing something usefulJun 23 23:07
