I've actually had problems with eclipe and have stayed away from it since. Netbeans or Java Studio Creator are some feature rich ide's that are ok and worth checking out.

The best IDE on the market, IMHO, is JetBrains's IntelliJ IDEA. Netbeans or JEdit will get the job done too.

If he formatted the hard drive there shouldn't be a registry. Is the disk scratched or anything? Maybe the cdrom is having problems reading the disk.

The code only works for indian because he is not willing to sit and actually enter all 100 items that he is initializing his array for. So it "APPEARS" to be working correctly for him. I know i'm...

You are still not declaring mir in the test.h file. When you are using a variable in C and it is declared in a different file you have to declare it again using the "extern" keyword to let the...

I had an Inventorbot kit, which includes all the lego pieces to make the acrobat and etc. After you have the brick you can use the lego pieces you get from the kit or even any other lego pieces you...

And unless i'm mistaken, you forgot

#include "test.h"

I'm going to be waiting for a die-hard C person to tell me i'm completely wrong on this...but anyway, here is my educated guess on the issue. The C programming langauge and pretty much every one i...

Its been done before but why not make a secure chat client that stores public keys on a keyserver. Similar to what pgp desktop, i beleive does, for email. Just write your own for chatting. Java...

The school I went to just brought them from the mindstorm website. You can find the "brick", which is the part with the processor on ebay, and you just use regular legos to actually build the robot....

You could check out this idea..

Or if your bored you could take a handy off the shelf router, you might have laying around or using one and...

Well I have experience in taking a lego mindstorm brick http://mindstorms.lego.com/eng/default.asp and rewriting its operating system to that of http://brickos.sourceforge.net so that you can write...

This is what I've always used to download files. I've downloaded quite a few mpegs with it and it worked just fine.

I'd go with it being the capitalized class name in main and lowercase in his declaration. BTW...common java practice is to capitalize class names, so you might want to change it above instead of...

Of course its possible. Depends on what way you want to do it and if you have access to install an application on the before mentioned "remote system".

CVS also has the ability of branching. In which 2 people can edit the same file at the same time. Then when you resubmit the file to the cvs server you are given the ability to merge your changes...

For file transfer its better to use TCP instead of UDP because you can use a connection oriented paradigm (unless you are going to transfer only small files). Connection oriented has the overhead of...

Sorry about the java post, thats my more active forum but i got bored and was posting over here too.

Well the concept will work, there are otherways to finger print the os.

Also, another comment on the whole cheatting thing. Ever heard of windows API calls? its another example (obvious not valid here) of program "cheating" being used to its fullest. Of course using...

Java makes programming a chat applications really easy. Look up sockets in java and thats all you will need for a very basic one. Get that far and when you encounter problems or what to do more...

I stand corrected on the "system" function in C. Yeah i just looked it up to make sure. I just realized why i thought that. Not a C or C++ programmer anymore so its been a while since i've...

Well i read it and its not hard to understand, assuming u've studied operating systems. Its just an OS simulator. If your just doing an explaination of the program you might want to include...

Couldn't you have just used the ascii value and then subtracted to get its value in the alphabet?

Sorry my bad, i didn't read well enough. Your either writing a hash routine or weak encryption...

I dont think you can use the "System" command in linux. I'm pretty sure its a windows only command.

But what i think i would do is just piggy back off of another program (linux does this all...

Well i wont be much good there. I was hoping to hear something about C and i was going to recommend maybe a little robotics project.

Why pay when Fedora Core is free, and sponsered aka lead by the same group?

If you dont like debain install issues...dont try gentoo. Gentoo does not have a text or graphical installer. But...

A programmer that says an editor is the answer...geesh. The answer is with the include statment with something like this...
#include "fileToInclude.cpp"

For more info just look up the uses of...

My educated guess is that Java wont be able to get the CMOS time. Java was made as a high level programming language and CMOS should be out of the scope of java (not 100% sure). If you wanted to do...

I'm running linux on an AMD64 machine. Dont think thats 10 year old hardware, probably should check that :)

I'd recommend Fedora or Mandrake if you are new to Linux. Mandrake is known for its...

Its either lack of sleep or something but the way u posted this seems a little confusing.

You might want to read the rules of this forum. We only help those who have shown effort, which you have not shown any. So unless your offering to pay somebody...do some work!

Eclipse is an IDE (editor) you are using some kind of SDK or JDK for your compiler.

You shouldn't. The concept of a semaphore is simple, you set the value to a number (in your case 4) when you use one of the resources you dec(-1) from the value and so on. Then if the value is <=0...

What are your interests, how long do you have to create a program, what experience do you have and is spending money an option?

"Unworkable architectures that are beauties of theoretical design but impossible to use if you do not have a CS degree.

Ok...so i'm a little bias :)

A PIC is a microcontroller. Basically its a processor (remotely similar to the cpu in your computer) but a whole lot less of a unit. If you are interested in this concept and have a little bit of...

Why not post the code that you are using to read in and display. Also make sure you are copying over and not overwriting the null terminator at the end of your char arrays. If you want to just test...

Jwenting is correct you need to read up on the topic but i can explain a little to help get you started.

I think the way i treat boolean logic is kind of like math. As you can see there are ( )...

Web servers are text based so they are rather simple.

For the basic version just...

JVM is an operating system. Java was created for use in embedded systems. Thats why your java programs are compiled into java byte code.
