Some observations:
environment Team Foundation Server 2005
problem Delete all builds except the most 10 recent
solution Using powershell
CleanupNightlyBuild.cmd
powershell.exe c:\DirWherePs1FileIs\CleanupNightlyBuildDontCallMe.ps1
pause

$tfbuild="C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\\Common7\\IDE\\TFSBuild.exe"

$dirs=(ls "c:\\DropLocation\\BuildLabel_*" | sort -property LastWriteTime -desc)
# delete all except the newest 10 ([math]::max)
# -f op

environment linux, Qt, c, gsoap, Microsoft MapPoint
problem I want an IRC bot which can calculate distances between users and display the local time of a user
solution Modifications to karmabot, which is written in Qt. The MapPoint WebService comes in handy. Although gSoap doesn't like MapPoint straight OOTB. Thus you need to remove "opaque=" from
gsoap-linux-2.7/plugin/httpda.c:243: sprintf(soap->gt;tmpbuf, "Digest realm=\\"%s\\", username=\\"%s\\", nonce=\\"%s\\", uri=\\"%s\\", qop=\\"%s\\", nc=%s, cnonce=\\"%s\\", response=\\"%s\\", opaque=\\"%s\\"", soap->gt;authrealm, soap->gt;userid, data->gt;nonce, soap->gt;path, qop, ncount, cnonce, response, data->gt;opaque); gsoap-linux-2.7/plugin/httpda.c:245: sprintf(soap->gt;tmpbuf, "Digest realm=\\"%s\\", username=\\"%s\\", nonce=\\"%s\\", uri=\\"%s\\", response=\\"%s\\", opaque=\\"%s\\"", soap->gt;authrealm, soap->gt;userid, data->gt;nonce, soap->gt;path, response, data->gt;opaque);
thanks to this posting.
You need to use httpda.h for digest authentication. Add gsoap-linux-2.7/plugin/httpda.c and gsoap-linux-2.7/plugin/md5evp.c and link against openssl (-lssl). That should do the trick. Because it cost me some time, I'll paste code for a find request:
char* arr[] = { "PopulatedPlace" };
struct mpt__ArrayOfString EntityTypeNames = {1, arr };
struct mpt__FindSpecification spec = {
"MapPoint.World",
"Vienna, Austria",
&EntityTypeNames,
NULL };
struct _mpt__Find req = { &spec };
if(soap_call___ns2__Find(gSoap, NULL, NULL, &req, resp) != SOAP_OK)
environment msdn documentation, gvim, C#
problem I want legacy C defines like this to be represented by a nice C# enum.
solution
%s#\\v(\\u)([A-Z_]+) (0x\\d+)L (.*)#^M///<summary>^M/// \\4^M///</summary>^M\\1\\L\\2 = \\3,#
Notes
environment C++ with Visual Studio 2005
problem Override new operator including additional parameter. Override delete operator and check if the correct delete operator is called when invoked on a base class.
solution
class A
{
};
class B : public A
{
public:
void *operator new( size_t stAllocateBlock, char chInit )
{
printf("B.new called\n");
return malloc(stAllocateBlock);
}
void operator delete( void * p, size_t)
{
printf("B.delete called\n");
free(p);
}
};
main:
A* a = new('a') B;
delete a;
Well, B::delete is not invoked.

environment gentoo
problem error message on boot ebda is big kernel setup stack overlaps lilo
solution mount using gentoo live cd, mount proc, mount root, mount boot, chroot, /sbin/lilo *done*
environment gentoo, fail2ban >0.8
problem drop ip packets from host that failed to authenticate via ssh
solution
1. emerge fail2ban
2. edit /etc/fail2ban/jail.conf
Look for [ssh-iptables] and fix:
enabled = true logpath = /var/log/messages
If you want emails, fix 'dest='.

Nice summary

environment MediaWiki, Axiom
problem Integration like R Extension missing
solution Download this and put it into your extensions/ directory.
Edit LocalSettings.php and append require_once('extensions/Axiomext.php'); at the end.
