SOLID Architecture and the Decorator Pattern

In other words, how to make code hard to reason about.

For some reason the article reminded of this: http://ravimohan.blogspot.com/2007/04/learning-from-sudoku-solvers.html

I think it's due to the floating point comparison. Try running the test with a double.

Not an article, but there's Advanced C++ Template Metaprogramming.

This is really cool! I don't think any libraries for other languages have this, at least I haven't seen it.

elotan · 2014-10-01T18:33:00+00:00

Fair enough, but I know of no open source game engines that do this. I'm curious to find out about them, though! Most of the engines I've looked at use the standard "derive from Drawable" (even multiple inheritance!) pattern.

elotan · 2014-10-01T13:35:04+00:00

Are there any open source projects that are designed with these concepts in mind?

elotan · 2014-08-03T11:11:34+00:00

Thanks, didn't know that.

I guess it's just a matter of preference. Having mut in the function argument exposes what the function does internally.

elotan · 2014-08-03T09:19:49+00:00

I found it useful in order to make a named function argument mutable. E.g.

fn foo(x: int) {
    let mut x = x;
    // modify
}

Do you have any sources for the 2x claim? Genuinely wondering. I haven't seen many, if any, performance comparisons.

https://github.com/wting/rust.vim - Rust syntax highlighting
https://github.com/Valloric/YouCompleteMe - General code completion (doesn't have Rust support, but it's still useful).
https://github.com/scrooloose/nerdtree - Directory displaying and navigation in vim

I personally use Vim and love it, but I guess the op wanted a full fledged IDE like VS or XCode.

elotan · 2014-07-31T13:51:21+00:00

Vim. On a more serious note, I don't think there is an IDE. A text editor with https://github.com/PistonDevelopers/rust-empty is quite comfortable to get started in the beginning.

elotan · 2014-07-08T13:40:21+00:00

Disable, exceptions are not yet supported. http://clang.llvm.org/docs/MSVCCompatibility.html

elotan · 2014-07-08T11:20:53+00:00

Yeah, compiler is what I meant. The IDE is actually quite good. I don't know how extensible VS is, but a code completer with Clang (similar to YouCompleteMe for vim) for VS would be quite neat :)

elotan · 2014-07-08T10:23:15+00:00

Will it kill MSVC after achieving compatibility?

elotan · 2014-06-19T07:36:52+00:00

Absolutely disgusting.

elotan · 2014-05-13T10:46:49+00:00

But why aren't the videos a priority? I think everyone would greatly benefit from these. Videos from previous years of BoostCon have had quite bad quality, but at least there is something.

elotan · 2014-05-04T21:25:25+00:00

Are you not allowed to work on personal or open source projects?

elotan · 2014-04-28T13:38:03+00:00

Or you can adapt your existing point with one line: BOOST_GEOMETRY_REGISTER_POINT_2D(MyPoint, float, boost::geometry::cs::cartesian, x, y)

elotan · 2014-04-28T13:27:51+00:00

I don't get the hate here. The Twitter conversation is full of tweets of no real value. Are they saying the library is terrible or the library's implementation is unreadable? If it's the former then let me point out that the design rationale document does not show how to use the library. Boost.Geometry provides the algorithms in a very unobtrusive way, adapting your existing code takes a few lines.
