  1. For me it really depends on you. Java and C++ as its own pros and cons, it really depends on you which language you would prefer. provided that you are willing to sacrifice based on the language you choose. for example if your going to develop the game using java, you will have to sacrifice its speed and hardware requirements. In the other hand if your going to develop it in C++ then be prepared to do complex programming. The choice really would be yours to make.


  2. There is also another way of doing this. through the used of javascripts.

    <scirpt>setTimeout("foo()",5);function foo(){window.href = "otherpage.html";}</script>

    this will actually work just like have the meta tag but search engines would not flag your web page as a spam. If you don't want to ensure that there is not output before calling the function (i.e. header function) then you can do this by invoking the function ob_start() which buffers the page in the server before sending it to the clients browser. so you can rest assure that your header will still work even if there is already an output sent.


  3. Hey All
    What you guys think is the best programming language for Windows Vista?

    Ive been doing C# for some months, but im looking for something else, something easier for making
    fast applications, and no extra things needed like the .NET Framework. Doesnt have to be GUI Applications.

    Any Idea?
    Post up your idea :)

    - optiplex


    If your using vista you'll get the .NET Framework so you don't have to worry anything about the .NET Framework. Any language in the .NET Family would fit for vista. in fact VS .NET is specially designed for vista. If you want something other than C# then try VB.NET. VB is known for rapid software development. You might want to check it out.

  4. try setting the time to 0.

    shutdown -s -t 00 -f

    this will prevent the user from stopping it. the -f will force exit all open apps.windows provide the program "type". this is commonly used by viruses to attached themselves to the OS during its start up. and it's very difficult to revert it. so be extra careful.


  5. Nah, generic VB6 Timer doesn't create it's own thread, and it isn't quite precise... Yes, it's satisfactory if you don't need exact time intervals in a millisecond, but when precision is of the essence, it fails misserably... I wrote a programm that needed precise time intervals to poll certain hardware, and Timer failed to do the job, I had to write a separate thread timer using API, to achieve 20ms precision...

    ahhh. I've never have had wrote a program that really needs a precise time. may I ask if you turn on and off your timer? I mean during each execution of the timer you turn it off and after its execution you turn it on...

  6. better start by writing you SRS (System Resource Specification) to get you going. planning is the most important thing you should do. plan what your system is all about. what is it capable of doing and what are its limitations. This will guide you through it all. when your done making it then you can start coding your program. it will be easy now since you already have a plan of what your system should look like and how should it behave.


  7. He could, but Timer object isn't very precise... And if something occupies his program, Timer would miss his turn... So it wouldn't be 10 minutes, it would become 12 minutes... Multi-threading is the best way to go about, have an external process worry about minutes, and when the time comes, execute the code he needs... If on the other hand, those 10 mintes don't have to be 10 minutes, Timer object would be satisfactory...

    really??? but VB timer creates a different thread for its own execution. I've used it before for timer agents used in cafes and other apps that uses timers. I don't see any problem with it.

  8. hahaha. I guess if it works for the recycle bin it would also work with other apps or folders. but hey give the guy a break. at least he gives us idea. although I still don't know the essence of it but you could actually use this trick to redirect an access to a folder to the recycle bin. just by putting the registry key as an extension of the folder. :)


  9. Ok, this is a double whammy. My situation is I like this girl. Alot. And over the year I have become one of her best friends, along with her best friend. She has never gone out on a date date before, and she gets VERY shy about Boyfriends and all of that. How to I ask her out? Do I?

     

    And now for number two. I became good friends with a girl while I was in France, she came on our school trip group thing. After France I got her number and talked to her a lot using SMS. I finally got the balls to ask her out for lunch, she says yes, but she asks to bring her friend! I couldn't say no. So they come along and we have a great time, but I cant really ask any intimate questions due to the friend thing. Ok, this was a month or so ago, we have slowed down SMSing a lot after the holidays. She still says hi and stuff, but I want to become more than just 'hi' friend (people who you just say hi to). What do I do?

     

    Sam.

     

    PS. Do guys generally SMS more than girls?

     

    PSS. How do you tell if they like you, or really like you?


    Dear Sam, lolz.

     

     

    sounds like Dr. Heart. The kind of thing you hear over the radio. But seriously if you really in love with that girl (either of the two but not both) you should be the one to make the first move. (don't expect them to do it for you) how can you be more than a friend if you don't have the courage to be more than just a friend, right? It's natural that she'll ask a friend to be with her maybe because she's shy. just win her trust and who knows the next date you'll have will be the most remembered date that you'll ever have. Persistence and diligence is very important in winning a girls heart.

     

    Sincerely,

    Dr. Heart LOLZZZ :):D


  10. I guess no one would sue you if you'll make your own browser. If somebody did then they would have sued mozilla for developing firefox. Microsoft and Apple have their own browser for their own OS. They really don't have the control over the other OS. Besides browsers just renders you HTML, I don't think someone can sue you for showing HTML.


  11. How about the name 'Peepz' taken from moodsey211's reply? lol Peepz means people, and people use it.
    Peep also means to view something, so it could mean peeping at various aspects or parts of the world through the web browser.


    lolz. It could be a name. But it's entirely all up to you. you can name your browser any name you want. It's your creation any way. It's your choice what name you would like. For me the name is less important. What's important for me is the functionality of the web browser. I won't choose it for its name anyway. lols
