Type-safe XML programming in .NET
Geplaatst door Freek Paans op 20 October 2010
In most of our projects, we store our application data in a RDBMS. For a recent desktop application, however, we decided to store the data in an XML file. The reason for this being that there were no ACID requirements and the notion of using files to store data is of course more or less the standard in desktop applications. XML was chosen because of the wide range of tools available to manipulate that format.
There is no MVC
Geplaatst door Scato Eggen op 19 July 2010
The MVC-paradigm has been around since the dawn Object-Oriented Programming (OOP). Meanwhile lots of frameworks have adopted this paradigm in some form, and while I was working on my own server-side JavaScript framework (work in progress) I decided to adopt it as well. So what is MVC?
Marker Detection for Augmented Reality Applications
Geplaatst door Corné den Otter op 2 April 2010
[update] We received a lot of comments requesting for the source code. At the moment we are very busy, so unfortunately we haven't had the time to clean-up the marker detection code. Because this has already been the case for quite some time now, we have uploaded the code (under the GPL). You are free to download the code in the zip file at the end of this blog post.
The code is just a prototype: it is hardly optimized and needs a lot of clean-up (and better memory management ;-)). That said: it's yours to play around with. Good luck with it and enjoy![/update]
Aanpassingen HR Performance Scan
Geplaatst door Reinder Nijhoff op 29 March 2010
De afgelopen maand maakten wij voor Bright & Company een aanpassing aan de HR Performance Scan. Met de HR Performance Scan kunnen organisaties (vanaf 500 medewerkers) inzicht krijgen in de échte bijdragen van hun HR Functie aan de business en hun prestaties vergelijken met branchegenoten.
De door ons gemaakte aanpassing zorgt er voor dat organisaties -in een extra hoofdstuk in de rapportage- inzicht krijgen in hun ontwikkeling gedurende de tijd. Dit kan uiteraard alleen indien zij de scan meerdere jaren achter elkaar hebben ingevuld.
pwgen version 0.3 released
Geplaatst door Wietse Venema op 22 December 2009
Last week I released the first public version of pwgen. pwgen is a password generator. It generates passwords which are designed to be easily memorized by humans, while being as secure as possible. The GUI is clean and simple. If you modify one of the controls, a new password will be generated. The textfield containing the password will be automatically selected each time you generate a new password. This allows for quick tweaking and copy/paste of your random password.
A Cocoa GUI for pwgen
Geplaatst door Wietse Venema op 3 December 2009
Here at INFI we have a philosophy similar to Google’s 20 percent time. Employees are allowed to take a certain percentage of their time, during work hours, to work on anything we are passionate about. We use the time to build something new or learn about new cool technologies. Most things we learn we then share with our colleagues or on this blog. Last week, I took some time to learn Objective C 2.0 and get to know XCode and Cocoa. I created a Cocoa GUI for the popular utility pwgen.
