colorEditor

colorEditor:

color editor is…

A syntax color highlighting editor for Eclipse.

ColorEditor uses JEdit’s syntax highlighting mode files.

This is a beta release since a few things don’t work. The biggest issue that doesn’t currently work is supporting a partition that contains another partition(s). JEdit uses this "span within a span” idea in a lot of places but as far as I can tell it will take a good bit of work to support overlapping partitions in Eclipse.

The plugin currently supports highlighting for around 74 different file types.

BitTornado T-0.3.10

the forums at degreez.net :: View topic - BitTornado T-0.3.10: "The latest update should fix the problem with the client getting stuck in the task manager under Windows. The pause system has been rewritten, and no longer halts the engine; it should work properly without freezing up now on machines w/ limits on the maximum number of connections that can be kept open. A few other bugs have been fixed, though the GUI width problem hasn't (and may not until the GUI is rewritten). Another stupid bug, where the download time estimate isn't blanked when the client is paused, will be fixed in the next version."

WinSSHD is not as good as expect

I often get unexpected exception that forces WinSSHD crash. Now, I decided to change to openssh. In fact, I have installed openssh for windows for a while to use it with cvsnt. However, the same machine also installs cygwin. I thought it would be nice to install all of these via cygwin. Unfortunately, I can't run cvsnt with cygwin openssh so I install cygwin cvs to solve the problem.

At this point, things should run fine but I can't install sshd as a service to let it run immediately at startup. I am still getting execv: 5 Input/Output error.

"IIS Not Running ASP.Net 1.1"

"IIS Not Running ASP.Net 1.1"

In case of you got message like "Visual Studio .Net has detected that the specified Web Server is not Running ASP.Net 1.1", it is because you didn't install IIS at install time. Fortunately, you have a solution to install it later by now using below command.

aspnet_regiis -r

Streaming a Database in Real Time

Streaming a Database in Real Time "Michael Stonebraker is well-known in the database business, and
for good reasons. He was the computer science professor behind Ingres
and Postgres. Eighteen months ago, he started a new company, StreamBase, with another computer science professor, Stan Zdonik, with the goal of speeding access to relational databases. In "Data On The Fly,"
Forbes.com reports that the company software, also named StreamBase, is
reading TCP/IP streams and using asynchronous messaging. Streaming data
without storing it on disk as are doing other relational database
software gives them a tremendous speed advantage. The company claims it
can process 140,000 messages per second on a $1,500 PC, when its
competitors can only deal with 900 messages per second."

eXeem Released



eXeem™ v0.20 Public Beta has been released to the public. Everybody is now able to download it and give it a try before the final version comes out. There are still some bugs that we have not been able to find yet which is why the program is still in Beta Testing. eXeem™ Public Beta includes its own network that is based on the BitTorrent idea (uses libtorrent as download component), has searching abilities and other funtions that a Peer-To-Peer program should have.
