Emergency Coding Pack
-
I recently thought of an idea for a small *.zip package containing a basic set of tools for emergency programming. The idea would be that it could run on any Windows machine without admin rights. This way when you are in need of code you could just download the zip, extract it and then get coding. I am hoping for some feedback on the idea + suggestions on what to put in the pack. So far I have: -MinGW -Notepad++ -CodeBlocks (Possibly) -SharpDevelop -Paint.NET Edit: If anyone wants me to create a pack like this and upload it, just let me know!

Netbeans runs on a flash drive. We used to use it for portable coding in college. You can get plugins for php, c++, etc, which is why I bring it up.
If it moves, compile it

(just sayin') Weird, in more than 20+ years of programming professionally, I never ever had a need for an "emergency programming session". :^)

If it's an emergency you're probably going to be doing some serious debugging so make sure your MinGW includes a GDB that works with CodeBlocks and add in Dependency Walker and WinDbg or OllyDbg for low level and interface problems, you'll also need a command line environment shortcut like the ones Visual Studio creates which starts up a command line with all your tools on the Path ahead of anything already on the machine. Beyond that it depends what sort of code your writing whether you need a ROT viewer or Dumpbin equivalent or something to do Error lookup or extra libraries like Boost or ACE or a paint package for creating icons.

Not so much coding, but some tools that I'd consider essentially for emergency debugging would be: 1. WinDbg 2. ProcMon 3. Depends (dependency viewer) 4. DebugDiag 5. ILSpy 6. Process Explorer 7. Window Hack From memory, all of these are free and can be run without installation, for me they sit in a dropbox folder for quick access :)

I agree. I also have never needed an "emergency programming pack". Any emergencies that have arisen have been covered by using my normal programming environment. In addition, they are only emergencies because someone else screwed up something basic without proper backups and the marketing people were panicking. Almost all my career I have kept things under control - usually source control ;P - as far as putting things into production. I have seen other people do last-minute hacking directly on a web-server but I have never been guilty of it myself and see it as a failure, either actual or potential (or usually both).

I would add AgentRansack[^]to the list. It will search both the contents and names of files and is fast.

This may happen to us all. Have you ever seen one of these movies where you have to hack a system in 15s or transfer a virus in an alien starship mother computer ? These are the situation where the emergency coding usb stick comes handy.

No biggie, I just open up the command window and type:
~%su log on alien ship

~%su upload virus

Like several of the others, I've never needed an "emergency coding pack". If I need to do any debugging in the field then I bring a laptop with my dev environment. However, one tool I use frequently is LINQPad[^]. Comes in handy for testing short pieces of code, or just making use of a public api for a quick script without needing to fire up VS. The
Dump()method is useful for inspecting objects on the fly as well.The shout of progress is not "Eureka!" it's "Strange... that's not what i expected". - peterchen

Yes, but suppose there's a zombie apocalypse and you have to hack the highly advanced self-aware supercomputer that's spreading the zombie virus to save humanity? Or aliens from Planet X attack and you have to hack the mothership to once again save humanity? Then you'll regret not having an emergency coding pack.
