RE: AutoUpdate License
-
I hereby GRANT anyone--except government employees and government contractors, a FULL, unrestricted license to use my AutoUpdate DLL(binary) for any commercial or personal use whatsoever!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My goal and the purpose of the article was to share the concept of HOW TO WRITE FREEWARE! The source code for loading a DLL from a thread IS INCLUDED in the demo and this was intended to be the FREE CODE--you that code for any purpose commercial or otherwise--to load and call the DLL you write to retrieve files. I will post the code for the dll on my website--I didn't because I was tired and it is NOT the point of the article. I respect anyone who works for a living--my dad worked for a company and supported his family. The source code in the article for loading any DLL from a thread and the code for creating threaded modeless dialogs is FREE for anyone to use for any purpose and if you take the time to read it it shows how to launch a modeless, threaded dialog the RIGHT WAY! I knew I would get the unusual grabage from some of you, but I also know that there are some people who like to discuss concepts related to deciding WHAT KIND of program to write and how that decision affects the coding. If you write databases you learn quickly to use a pencil and paper FIRST to design the tables and freeware is no different--it requires even more thought about the design so you do not offend users and provide a valuable service to users in exchange for their allowing you to subject them to a shitload--hope I did not offend anyone?--of ads.:-O Bill SerGio, The Infomercial King
Maybe this is a silly question, but why do you have to shout (i.e. write in capitals) when you post? Calling yourself the "Infomercial King" (whatever that means) seems a little smug too. Why do you do it? Anna :rose: "Be yourself - not what others think you should be"

I have only ever judged Bill on his programming articles, beyond that I is just hearsay and opinion. I will go by what I know..... not by what I have heard. Besides, the world needs characters to keep it interesting.

Why should you? [James Pullicino] wrote: Vent as much as you like. You are only aggravating yourself. Actually, venting and getting things out in the open helps. Bottling things up inside is what can destroy a person. And, just as an FYI, if you don't know my "style" yet. The whole smack the shit out of you was just an analogy to illustrate a point. I wasn't upset or anything like that. I'm sure you probably knew that already that, but I just wanted to say it.
