People stream themselves coding frequently. Quality varies of course, but check it out for yourself. http://www.reddit.com/r/WatchPeopleCode/

Ok. Then I missed the post you're talking about. My apologies. Nothing to see here....

The trailer was for Ender's Game. Considering the demographic of Reddit and the significance of that book to many in that demographic (including me), it is no surprise that the post was so popular. I am not 17. I am 38.

When I was growing up, asking for a Coke would result in the counter-question "What kind?" Coke was just the general name for any dark carbonated beverage that wasn't root beer. Although I still don't know why root beer was excluded. :-)

With the addition of the git-flow plugin, git has taken over for my personal projects. The branching model works for me and the plugin makes using that branching model extremely easy. Link to explanation of branching model: http://nvie.com

I would agree. I've been a lurker on HN for a couple years and the recent PG post about creating wealth was new to me. It was a wonderful post, old as it may be, and much more useful to me (a developer) than multiple posts about another a

How will you handle varying security levels? I don't want to put my principle username and password into an app that I distribute that can literally do anything to my databases. Can you or will you be able to have multiple users/access le

I'm using Irony as the parser. But I still have to translate the grammar into C# code. I was unable to find an existing Java parser in C#. Do you know of one?

I used Character.isJavaIdentifierStart(int) and Character.isJavaIdentifierPart(int) to write a file with the ranges that I cut and pasted into my C# code. And thank goodness, too! I'm sure I would've made a typo or missed characters if I h

I have never heard of "Java TCKs" but after a little research, I understand them better. Just out of curiosity, what would passing the Java TCKs do for me or my users?

by jere_jones 16y ago
Actually, it is possible it does. I only ran the test from 0x0000 to 0xFFFF. Maybe I should revisit.

Bear in mind that this parser's job is only for syntax highlighting and, later on, refactoring. Hmmm... maybe highlighting literals would be useful. I'll have to think on that.

Thank you for the correction. I guess I was typing too fast. :-)

The NDK is really only good for writing back end stuff. You can't do any UI with it.

Thank you for putting an actual price in your comment! Expensive is relative and knowing someone else's point of view is very helpful.

You're absolutely right. Getting VS to edit Java files and build the apks wasn't too difficult. What will make it awesome is getting intellisense working. I will have to write a language service for that.

There's a tip that should be more public! I will try that.

I have looked at it, but I haven't given it the amount of time that I have given Eclipse. I just ran into too many bugs that revolved around its interaction with the emulator.

Oh yes! Those are the two biggest reasons that I love VS.

My principal goal for submitting this is to get your opinion on the project. It will be a lot of work. Much more work than just adjusting to Eclipse. So, am I crazy? Is there a market for this? Would you use it? I know about and have u

Are you interested in doing Android work? I'm not sure what files you would provide to an iPad developer, but for Android just providing mock ups and graphical assets would be hugely valuable. It would certainly be more challenging to come

Well, the contest is being sponsored by a US only telecom just to promote their 4G network. Kinda makes sense.
