hey there :) just hanging out making my lunch SE rounds
 
hiyah @DanLyons
 
5:12 PM
Good thing you came here.... you can definitely make a meal of things.
 
or smoke 'em
 
OH REALLY.... (capsrage over)...
I was solving the wrong bug.
What I was trying to solve was not a bug at all.
 
was a feature?

BrannonEntity Framework 6 fails to handle the maintenance of LocalDB's global list of databases. That is noted here: https://entityframework.codeplex.com/workitem/1748 Here is my code to work around the issue.

@Mat'sMug Pretty much...
The thing is that I have a big big warning message, and an error below it.
So I solved the big big warning message to no avail.
Turns out the error is unrelated to the warning message.
 
@rolfl thanks
 
Maven wasn't (isn't) recognizing my non java files in my source directory

@rolfl How many times can the same picture be on Google?
@JerryCoffin What.
 
wow I look at the front page, and 50% of the posts have a blue highlight. Do I have too many "favorite" tags?
 
@skiwi Just a bit of sarcasm/humor over the ability of many programs to print something entirely different from what the print preview showed...
 
@JerryCoffin LOL
 
Does anyone know how to trick maven into using resources in a source directory?
 
incoming ... off-topic
 
5:18 PM
@DanLyons TS!
 
> it shows "Wrong Answer", which means there is some bug in the code. Can anyone explain why this is happening ?
 
@skiwi Use ant.
 
@Mat'sMug Probably not. Only too many if the highlighting becomes less useful.
 
@rolfl I can't get ant to run on Travis :(
Better yet would be to use Gradle, but I'm not really wanting to convert the whole project now. Plus Gradle support in Netbeans 8 is still suboptimal.
 
@JerryCoffin half of the blue-highlighted are also dimmed ("ignored" tags) though, so I guess it evens out :)
 
5:19 PM
@skiwi - there have been very few things I have tried in life, and truly grown to hate. Maven is one of those though.
 
@skiwi use eclipse.
 
@Vogel612 If Eclipse is the answer, it must have been a really lousy question.
 
@rolfl After using Gradle and Maven, I do really miss to add dependencies automatically in Ant.
 
@skiwi - Ivy works fine in ant.
But, that;s not the point.
 
Eclipse is one of those things, like broccoli, that you either love or hate. I hate it, but YMMV.
 
5:22 PM
All systems have some flaws.... but, maven seems to be built specifically to do things the way that make the least amount of sense.
 
I'm so sad I'm out of stars right now.
 
To break things in ways that are hard to diagnose.
And to make things impossible to reproduce
 
@Mat'sMug Seems borderline-ish to me. "As far as I now it's correct, but somebody's saying it has some unidentified bug" doesn't seem to me like enough to automatically treat it as off-topic.
 
That's why I want to avoid, at all possible costs, to actually write something meaningful in Maven.
I do strongly believe that picking up Gradle is worth it.
 
Also, as for dependencies, it is important that you, the developer, know what your dependencies are, because it will be that one, odd, library, that Maven pulled in automatically, that borks everything.
 
5:24 PM
@skiwi There was a poll of the Scala community on which build tool you prefer, and Maven was a solid #2. Number 1 was SBT, which is a Scala specific thing.
 
@JerryCoffin oh, I missed the part about AFAIK it works ok
 
@Donald.McLean One wild guess, Scala Build Tools?
 
And you, the developer, did not even know it was needed, but suddenly, because it has some magic, it pulls in some version of some other jar, that conflicts, sometimes, with some other jar, that you don't need, but Maven pulled in anyway.
 
@skiwi Yes.
 
@rolfl Which is what you are doing in Maven and Gradle... Unless you talk about dependencies within dependencies, but then you need those either way to run, right?
 
5:26 PM
I think Maven must have come from the same kind of thinking that produced Emacs.

Q: to check if a number is perfect square by recursive sum of its digits

coolcoderi was solving this question on an online judge : http://www.spoj.com/problems/TIPTOP/ The problem boils down to folowing : Given a number N, ( 1 ≤ N ≤ 10^18 ), we need to check if it contains odd number of divisors. i have used following facts in my code: -> only perfect squares have an odd ...

 
(Googles Emac)
 
@Donald.McLean I wouldn't say I hate it, exactly, but it does seem to me like a pretty poor design. Obvious example: the other day I tried to create a little (4-line) config file. Didn't have anything else handy on that machine, so I used Eclipse. Create new file, type in text, go to save. It won't let me save it. Not sure, but I guess I needed to have a project open (or something) before it would let me save. After 10 minutes, finally gave up and did things differently.
 
@skiwi No, in any decent size project you normally only need a subset of some library's functionality, and as a consequence just a subset of those dependencies.
 
@rolfl I believe you can specify that then, right? Or wrong.
 
5:27 PM
@rolfl Exactly. Which is why I still use hand edited Ant build files.
 
depends on how the maven pom was set up for the library.
@Donald.McLean Exactly.
 
@skiwi "Emacs", not "emac" (originally stood for "editing macros", but it's never singular).
 
50.4.7. Excluding transitive dependencies

You can exclude a transitive dependency either by configuration or by dependency:
This is what you mean from Gradle?
Though excluding is still slightly risky
 
I would rather spend 10 minutes each build/release cycle manually verifying my dependencies, than spend hours and hours and hours trying to figure out why I have some bugs that were not there yesterday, but were mysteriously introduced because I am now using a different version of a library I did not even know I had changed.
 
But you do know when you update the version number of a dependency. Unless you are building from snapshots, but that's pretty much your own fault then?
 
5:31 PM
Ahh, so you are saying you should not use the recommended Maven practice?
 
could someone validate my edit here please? I'm hoping the "n | 1 <= n <= 10^18" notation didn't change the meaning, right? codereview.stackexchange.com/posts/52375/revisions ...math hates me
 
@rolfl I don't care about Maven ;-) Gradle is that counts
(Does Maven really recommend building from snapshots?!)
 
No, but it recommends not specifying a particular version, and assume that all versions are backward compatible.
 
Ok, then that's something we agree on, never trust that.
 
@Mat'sMug The fact that you're uncertain about whether it changes the meaning indicates (to me) that it's a questionable edit at best--seems to me it was clearer before the edit, even if the edited version is prettier.

A: What exactly is a Maven Snapshot and why do we need it?

romaintazThe three others answers provide you a good vision of what a -SNAPSHOT version is. I just wanted to add some information regarding the behavior of Maven when it finds a SNAPSHOT dependency. When you build an application, Maven will search for dependencies in the local repository. If a stable ver...

More Maven-WTFness ^
 
@JerryCoffin if I remember correctly, "n | n < x" means "n, where n is smaller than x" - if that's correct then the jaxed-up notation is clearer, not just prettier ;)
 
I use this in my only Gradle project so far and I feel saafe with it (with a sidenote):
dependencies {
//    compile 'com.nativelibs4java:bridj:0.6.2'
    compile 'com.nativelibs4java:bridj:0.7-SNAPSHOT'
    compile 'net.java.dev.jna:jna:4.1.0'
    compile 'de.vorb:jtesseract:0.0.4'
    compile 'de.vorb:jleptonica:0.0.2'
    testCompile 'junit:junit:4.11'
}
I really need the snapshot there as an important bugfix is in there
The versioned versions won't change.
 
@Jamal seems to agree ;)
 
hi
 
Oh, so, what you have done is identify all your dependencies in your config.....
 
5:36 PM
and I totally missed the boat on that edit! thanks @Jamal!
 
Best email I got today... Fixed: skiwi2/TCG#61 (master - d599d8d)‏
 
... sounds like all the benefits of maven (the only benefit of maven) is being thrown out in favour of the way that ant has always done it.
 
So finally I fixed a non-existing bug.
Coverage dropped from 97% to 87% though.
@rolfl Well if Gradle wouldn't offer benefits, there wouldn't be much point in using it.
0.87 hits per line / 676 of 777 relevant lines covered Jackpot again!
 
you need 3 cherries
or 10 less covered lines :)
 
@Mat'sMug I'm forced to disagree--it may be precise, but still isn't clear to a large number of readers. Let's assume that "blrfg" was a Swahili word that meant "the tint of red of an apple exactly 2 days before it's fully ripe.", and that's the exact shade of read I wanted--if I wrote "blrfg" it would still be about as clear as mud to most people who don't read Swahili.
 
5:39 PM
I know swahili.
2
There is no such word.
2
 
For some reason the hits per line isn't working properly yet, that's also on my todo list.
 
@rolfl Of course not--substitute "Welsh" if you prefer (now that I think about it, "blrfg" looks more like Welsh anyway). Point is that even if it means exactly what's intended, it's not clear unless most readers actually understand it, and in this case I don't think there's any assurance most do.
 
Anyway, there are no native apple trees in africa ;-)
> Apples have been grown for thousands of years in Asia and Europe, and were brought to North America by European colonists. Apples have been present in the mythology and religions of many cultures, including Norse, Greek and Christian traditions. In 2010, the fruit's genome was decoded as part of research on disease control and selective breeding in apple production.

OK, the bratty is over ... I am done thinking about Maven.

@skiwi Needs to run code on his 16 MHz 286 running MS-DOS 4.1 (or maybe it's 3.3--so faded I can't read the version number any more).

should I replace | with "where" then?

@rolfl At least he wasn't asking about why his CP/M code doesn't work correctly on MS-DOS 2 any more. :-)
 
I have seen that message a few times now .... so, I know.... ;-) It's also a real challenge in the SEDE queries I have
 
@Mat'sMug Seems like a better choice to me.
 
@Mat'sMug Well done (IMO).

ooh big thunderstorm here, we may blackout :)
 
Thanks Jamal.
 
So much to do today, so little time.
 
Priorities: instead of coding like I would, and replace some 1,600 lines of crap with a single IDictionary lookup, I'm copy+pasting the same block of code over and over and over, changing pretty much a single digit every time (...sometimes not even!), because it's a complicated application that we can't afford to break, so change as little as you can to make it work. FML.
So next time there's a bug, I'll have to dig it up within 8K lines of code-behind with data access, UI handling and business logic intertwined, instead of going straight to the IDictionary initialization.
 
@Mat'sMug I wish I could do more than extend condolences, but I doubt I can...
 
truth is, it's a quite simple application, that they made complicated, and that's nearly impossible to maintain.
I need to find a nice and diplomatic way to tell my boss he shouldn't be taking code-related decisions.
even the XAML markup is a f*****g joke

@Mat'sMug how many devs are working on that?

@ckuhn203 what language is it?
(don't say VB don't say VB don't say VB) ...it's not VB..... but the constructs seem similar
 
7:20 PM
JDA Space Automation @Mat'sMug. It's proprietorially linked to their software.
It's more or less a "basic" language.
 
what's the _GN_ for?
 
what is that _GN_ at the beginning of lines
 
There are no loops. No loops.
General command
 
lawd
 
no loops? wth is For for then?
 
7:21 PM
Ok. There are array loops.
But that's about it. I can loop through an array, but there's no "Do Until" or "For i = 0 to ..."
 
I like that the language splits GoTo into Go and to. Keeps the raptors away ;)
 
i was just wondering how that construct worked
 
It doesn't trick the raptors.
 
i don't suppose Go and to can be used independently of one another
 
no.
 
7:24 PM
so it's like a keyword with a space in it
happy day
 
Bingo.
It's going away. They built .net libraries, but my company refuses to upgrade.
 
my company too! we even have a .net project that we're still developping on VS2008 and could upgrade to VS2010 like, now - but the person maintaining the project doesn't feel comfortable doing that. FML.
Yes, our top-notch code is in VS2010 / .net 4.0.
 
Ohhhhhh let's compare scars.
My company upgraded from sql server 200 to 2008. People are still developing Access Databases.
 
we're on SQL 2008 [NOT R2]
 
Because they're "not comfortable"
Really? Is there any good reason NOT to upgrade to r2?
heh, 12 points in the next 4 hours and I hit the 200 point cap.
 
7:31 PM
There's only 1 SQL instance, holding production, test and development databases (scratch that, the test db is the dev db, they don't get what "dev" means)
we had an email earlier today asking "who's running a heavy report? you're slowing down the whole production!"

Company paid for 3 VS2010 Pro licenses with 3 ReSharper, total ~ $5K. C# done in the last 6 months: none. And they won't spend a dime on another SQL Server instance if it's just for dev.

i.d.i.o.t.s.

I'm in the same boat. One instance. AND they won't install BIDS local. We have to remote into our server. (You know the one that's running the RMDS instance)

If the new build would just pass, that would be great
(I really need to test them locally)
 
Why don't you test them locally?
 
8:44 PM
Because I have set that Netbeans runs on Ant, and I got no clue how to run a Maven file on a non-Maven project
This should be relatively easy to figure out though, some other things require a Linux environment, so that's harder
That's why there are barely ever failed tests (I can run those local of course), but changing the build process is bound to give errors
 
hi
 
hi! Welcome to The 2nd Monitor!
 
I am wondering what sort of questions you can ask on codereview
 
you've come to the right place!
 
I have a short python script and some C code that should do the same thing
but they don't
is this the right place to ask about that?
 
8:47 PM
Nope .... that's the short answe, but it is the right place for other things you do ;-)
 
hmm normally code is ready for peer review once it does what it's supposed to be doing..
 
oh ok.. so where would be better?
so this is only for non-buggy code?
 
Code Review is supposed to be for code that works, but, often, problems are discovered during the review.
 
@dorothy Code Review is a place for sharing working code (code that does what it is supposed to do) and asking for how it can be improved (readability, performance, code smells, etc.)
 
TTQW, later @all!
 
8:48 PM
ok thanks
 
But, chat is a different thing.... in chat, we are more .... tolerant
 
StackOverflow is the best place to ask your question, I believe.
 
peace @Mat'sMug
 
ah ok :)
 
@Mat'sMug later
 
8:48 PM
if the code is small.....
 
StackOverflow is always the worst place to aska question
it may be the best place for your question, but it is the worst place
 
Just be sure to specify exactly what the expected and actual outcomes is if you ask on SO, otherwise.... it will get closed and downvoted.
 
@SimonAndréForsberg
It kind of works!
Take the latest release here: github.com/skiwi2/TCG/releases
Run: java -cp tcg-master-65.jar com.skiwi.gui.simple.GUISimple
Type help to get a clue of what you should be doing ;)
TTGTB now
(And Java 8 needed of course)
 
@Mat'sMug I didn't pull my own
I would be screaming if I had done that
 
@Malachi - I have a favour to ask you (seems ironic , the favour is, anyway).....
(or, if anyone else speaks up first .,...)
About flagging... ;-)
