What is everyone working on?

Just vaguely curious as to the types of applications generally being worked on at the moment. Anyone working on cool stuff to make the rest of us jealous? cheers, Chris Maunder
My handicap is that I still code.

Sitting on me arse, unemployed :) Was until recently working on a webified configuration management application using ASP and SQL, with a sprinkling of COM components for the really complicated parts. As I became more fed up with the project, we switched over to a J2EE model (In my opinion, for marketing purposes...we already had a huge investment in the ASP model, so switching over to the EJB model actually LOST huge amounts of time and energy), so I dinked around with that until I could take no more...am currently looking around for another contract gig. Ah, the joys of consulting ;) Jeremy

I'm working on Hitman 2 at IO Interactive. Luv this site because it helps when creating tools our project. :cool: Peter Marino ( www.marino.dk )
Dream job? Maybe... stressful and nerve raking, most likely. In your opinion how is game-dev different from business-dev? regards, Paul Watson Cape Town, South Africa e: paulmwatson@email.com w: vergen.org

well, it is kind of a dream job :-) , I have worked with business software as well. I worked for MGI ( www.mgisoft.com ) developing a DTP program called Calamus. You are 50% correct about the "nerve raking" and "stressful". Last first, stressful is correct. Delievering our deadlines means that sometimes we work 24 hours a day and don't come home after a couple of weeks, and if we went home it would only be to get a couple of hours of sleep. Nerve raking it isn't, actually when we are not stressed then I would say that game-developement is probably the best kind of work you can get. Everybody that works at IO-Interactive are crazy about games and when we are not programming we are playing counter-strike, quake 2/3, or some other kind of game. Every second Friday we all go out, eat dinner, drink beers, play pool, and so on... ( that's life :-) In conclusion I would say if you like games and can program,... then be a game programmer! :cool: Peter Marino

Hello, the codegurus around the world.:) Actually, this is a good question.:laugh: How does MFC programmer define that airplane is down?:confused: If the airplane suddenly stops to send some data to the airport, we can't distinguish between that the machine is broken and that the airplane is down. Humm. X| Have a nice day!

I am just starting work on a WSH (Windows Scripting Host) IDE. It will allow users to edit and debug their VBScript/JavaScript/etc. WSH scripts. It will support such editing features as; syntax highlighting, intellisence like auto-completion and time permitting, a spell checker. The debugger part will provide all the expected standard functionality like setting break points, etc. –- as you can see there are not a whole lot of details yet, I need to do allot more research into the new XML based WSH project files, and what the new functionality that WSH version 5.6 brings in to the mix. I'm not sure if there’s much to be jealous about here, considering I wont see any money till the whole thing is complete -- and even then, who knows... but it will be interesting :cool: -Ben --------- On the topic of code with no error handling -- It's not poor coding, it's "optimistic" ;)
How is the syntax highlighting/code completion/intellisence implemeneted? Have you done it yourselves, or are you using some third party library? Maybe you should take a look at CodeMax at http://www.winmain.com/ They have a really cool editor component. AFAIK it also free. It sounds cool the tool you're making. Take a look at PrimalScript, which is a similar product. I'm looking forward to see you app. Would you be kind enough to consider posting some screenshots? Christian Skovdal Andersen

Hello, the codegurus around the world.:) Last year, Delta airplne is looking for the MFC programmer to map the location of where and how Delta airplanes are flying around the world. If some MFC programmer is done ths job, this application seems to be the coolest one. Each time the pilot sends some message to the airport, this information goes to this application, this application shows all info needed by maping on the views.:cool: Have a nice day!

I'm actually using CodeMax -- thought I've modified so much, that I doubt Barry(the guy who wrote it) would recognize it ;) To do most of the intellisence stuff I'm using Nathan Lewis's IntelliList/IntelliSense implementation. > Take a look at PrimalScript, which is a similar product. Actually it sort of inspired the whole thing, thought I'd like to stick strictly to supporting WSH compatible scripts. > I'm looking forward to see you app. Would you be kind enough to > consider posting some screenshots? Cool! Unfortunately there isn’t much to see just yet. All my test apps for the debugger are currently all simple command line thingamabobers and the ones for the editor are plain vanilla MFC apps. I'm planning on getting a copy of BCGControlBar in hopes of making it look as close to VS 7.0 as posible. On the bright side, if you don’t mind the wait, I will be posting allot of the MFC code that I will be using on the editor side. It encapsulates most, if not all, of the CodeMax functionality. It will also have a fully functional editor sample included. Have a good one, -Ben --------- On the topic of code with no error handling -- It's not poor coding, it's "optimistic" ;)
