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

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
[connection accepted]
~%su upload virus

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!

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.

Notepad, CSC... oh wait, they're already on the system, I don't need to carry them with me. :rolleyes: I haven't needed such a thing for a great many years, but when I get home I can post a list of what I used to carry.

Several things come to mind: - linux 'live' CD (ie. bootable USB drive) - vi, vim or emacs (details to personal preference) - Visual Studio remote debugging files - Visual Studio (various versions?) - XML Notepad - VCS installation (ie. Git/SVN etc.)

Some of these may have been posted, but whatever. Apache HTTP Server from Here[^] (Or XAMPP[^]). Portable Python[^]. RJTextEd[^] Anything from PortableApps.com (Already mentioned) The Mono Project and MonoDevelop (Looking for ways to make portable. May have to compile by self to make work.) EDIT: Started thread here[^]. Will put suggestions there.

Nah, this is how he did in the movie. In real life, you'll need a batch file.

I remember working as a consultant in the early 90s, before laptops became ubiquitous, needing one of these on site, mine was a 3 1/2 floppy with Superbase on it ;P I can't imagine needing this in todays environment, surely you would take a laptop to a client site!

Just curious, in what type of scenario would one need an emergency coding pack?

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.

I love the thought that you might have to create an icon in an emergency.

With the exception of a text editor, it's all bells and whistles, Shirley? I Haven't come across many computers that don't have text editors.

Hey that's Unix, I've seen this before. I will clearly need a shell script, not a batch file.
