Plagiarized code in Article

[Pete OHanlon]

I would hold on a mo Sean. Let's get it clarified that this article is plagiarized first - I'm not so sure it is.

The message where Tim explained his concerns in detail is gone with the article.. Anyways, the biggest discussion point was the rather large chunk of code he grabbed from here[^] He seemingly has grabbed a lot of the code to download from there, and that's just rewrapping an old gift.

I see that Syed linked out to that page in his list of references.

Nevermind - I managed to see where he's doing the repackaging. Very naughty.

He added the link after Tino's message. But it still does not match the requirements:

• Even with the link there is no indication what has been copied.
• There may be a license discrepance (article is CPOL but the used source may have a different license). He should have asked the author.
• The source code (downloads and browse) does not contain a reference.
• Most of the article code is located in one file which is completely based on the source from Kelly's Chronicles.

This thread has risen over anything that can be used to discuss. Are you now sure, or unsure?

Thanks for the clarification works, Jochen!

Dear All, @Sean-Ewington ,I have send you mail,Today i chat with Mr Kelly Martens and asked permission to use the function and also in article to add his name and link to his original blog post,Kindly check your mail and if all fine kindly reopen the closed article. Thank you all for your comments.let me clear something here. 1) The article which is in discussion was been initially published during 2014.it was the time when i start writing articles. 2).The idea of the article is to read and write text from the external program without modifying the source code. 3) For this concept i search and found few articles which is related to that and using that i have made a sample which is some what advance version for reading and writing text from external programs. 4) When i read Kelly's Chronicles article all his background process few functions was related to my work and used and extended that to make with live sample. 5) In Kelly's Chronicles link he has mentioned as " I won’t be able to use these concepts at work yet but will once we upgrade our framework version. Hope it helps someone."Even kelly's Chronicles point is the source code is useful for some for implementing in their project and also i have developed this article not for own use ,I made that for the community. 6) I have added kelly's Chronicles name and link as reference in my article. 7) The article is closed now,I know well as Plagiarized article should be deleted,I respect that but the article is not exactly plagiarized ,as i have presented the reference links and my demo application is entirely different from others and it contains few functions which will be as common function method for reading and writing text from and to external programs. I just want to clarify what it has and never mind even if its deleted as the article is very old I respect Plagiarized article should be deleted.
