What is everyone working on?

At work I'm trying to figure out how all the new stuff in VS.NET Beta 2 is working. At home, I'm developing some Template Based classes, that wraps IO CompletionPorts, we (me and a friend) can use for our opcomming (socket) server products :) - Anders Money talks, but all mine ever says is "Goodbye!"

I'm working on an application for modelling Bayesian networks. UI uses MFC, while the computation engine is Standard C++. In the spare time, I'm extending my shareware screensaver - have a look at it here Tomasz Sowinski -- http://www.shooltz.com

Sort Allocation Computer for London Heathrow Airport. Yes I'm the guy that loses your luggage ;P
James I wrote the baggage software that communicates with the sortation machines at Manchester. The orginal software was developed in VB, needless to say to was well written and performed like a dog. I rewrote the software in VC++, runs like a dream now. We're also developing a FIDS system for software well known airports look us up on www.fswalkerhughes.com Regards Norm

Well, I'm based about 5 miles from Manchester Airport and as yet we have done absolutely nothing there although I'm about to assist on a quote for Terminal 2. You're lucky to get FIDS work - I'd love to do that as we mostly do the low level comms/controls software and never get chance to do the pretty graphics stuff :)

At work : We are currently rewriting a perfectly fine MFC program with an Oracle database to the web using Java with a AS400 database. X| Wayne
I feel your pain brother. I have to rewrite a perfectly good ASP/COM application in Java 2 and Oracle. And I've been forced to learn Java for the last 2 months. :(( :mad: X| p.s. Java Sucks Jason Gerard

I'm writing a massively multithreaded generic NT service... interesting challenge to ensure jobs are never lost... Rob Manderson http://www.mindprobes.net

The Boost.Threads library (http://www.boost.org). The library is under development and hasn't been submitted for Boost inclusion (yet), but it will be a portable threading library designed specifically for C++. The hopes are that this can be the starting point of a proposal for the C++ standards committee. :cool: William E. Kempf

(1) std::tree is missing, so I started to do it... (2) nt namespace (i.e. services, event log, registry, boot.ini, you know, the problems that makes us all to spend two days to boot...) (3) Quake I & protoss vs 3 computers :) (4) a tool for transporting large VC project selecting file(s) type(s) and folders (ie exclude .obj files, Debug folders, etc.) (5) Win32 API/C grid control That's all I remember now :)

I guess we are in the same boat. Learning Java has not been too bad, but since I come from a Windows desktop application world, throwing Internet programming on top of this has been difficult. I am in the middle of project two and it is a lot better than I thought it would be. If we could go back to Oracle, I would be a happy man. Wayne

Software sampler/synthesizer and its associated UI.

Another day, another cheesey Windows desktop app. I only dream of doing cool stuff. (Well, I did just finish a little application for visually editing images in an outgoing fax, that was kind of cool, at least I got to excercise my entire skill set. But now its back to enhancing our network logon security procedures or something equally dull. Yawn)

My day job is writing retirement planning software (how much to save, where to save it, when to start spending it, etc.). Originally a Windows destktop app but we're trying to put it on the web (COM+ and friends). My night job is writing Windows 2D graphics software (www.smalleranimals.com). -c ------------------------------ Smaller Animals Software, Inc. http://www.smalleranimals.com

- At work - real-time image acquisition and transmission (I can't get into more detail than that) 2) At home - A program suite that does (or will do) the following: a) simplifies launching one-or more racing simulation servers b) allows remote administration of those servers c) accumulates race results (reported by the servers mentioned, as well as other sources) d) calculates statistics and ranking information based on accumulated race results e) allows clients to setup races (on race servers that allow it) f) provides list of active servers for clients to race on g) provides chat capability for clients h) provides car skin exchange for clients Needless to say, the project at home is rather ambitious for a one-man operation. The software is completely free to anyone that wants to use it (of course they must have the associated racing sim as well). I could be talked into taking on a helper that is well versed in TCP/IP and client server stuff. Keep in mind that there would be no monetary reward, and no recognition beyond having your name show up in the code and probably the about box. :-)

I don't know if it's cool, but take a look at http://www.cadfx.com Basically all our products are being upgraded to be more "user friendly". Joel Lucsy (jjlucsy@concentric.net)

At work: Rewriting a system for tracking pre-clinical studies. The UI is MFC with a some ATL controls, while the business logic is in Java servlets. Communication is XML. At home: Chipping away at a MS (or PhD if I can swing it). My current fun project is a simple CAD system that can output VRML or 3DS. When I get the mechanics of that down, I want to try parametric generation of objects such as trees, buildings, etc.

Oh poop - was I supposed to be working on something? :-O
