Oops, you're right. Sorry, I was assuming semantic versioning - major.minor.build. Thanks for the clarification.

"R# only requires to re-install plugins when updating to new major versions."
is 2019.1.1 => 2019.1.2 EAP a major version jump? The Extensions list is completely empty

W Zoom lost their domain - it redirects to malware now. See their reviews in the Chrome store

Re: Chocolatey Gallery | IrfanView (Install) 4.44

CADbloke — Thu, 01 Dec 2016 04:09:24 -0000

Same error here. The problem appears to be at "Cannot find path 'C:\temp\IrfanView.html' because it does not exist." - mine was "C:\Windows\System32\IrfanView.html" - the current directory in the console is C:\Windows\System32\ so it looks like there is path information missing.

Freetards are a strong argument for capital punishment. We miss you but I wouldn't be so selfish as to ask you to come back.

I got mine from http://codesigning.ksoftwar... - probably the cheapest you will find. You still have to jump through hoops to get verified so I bought the 5-year option.

Fogbugz / KilnHg is free for 1-2 users and does Hg & Git at the same time. https://www.fogcreek.com/ki...

it also has good integration with Trello.

"Lastly, you cannot combine this feature with the “link to item” feature that allows you to add an existing item as a link."

Yes, you can, here it is:


<ItemGroup>
  <Compile Include="C:\Path\To\Root\**\*.cs">
    <Link>SolutionFolderName\%(RecursiveDir)%(Filename)%(Extension)</Link>
  </Compile>
</ItemGroup>

Re: Handling protocol changes to AutoCAD’s table in .NET

CADbloke — Sun, 17 Aug 2014 06:28:59 -0000

"I’m not sure when exactly it changed – perhaps in AutoCAD 2009?" - it changed in v2010 (I just tried it in 2009).

The documentation still hasn't changed in v2015 - try finding Table.Cells in the documentation (hint - it's not under Table). Thank $Deity for Intellisense and TheSwamp.

That last tweet in the footnote brings up another point - transparency. Vagueness and keeping important details secret tends to bring out the pessimism in me. I'm thinking either they don't understand their problem or they just don't care enough to fix it. They may have fixed it but unless they tell me so then I assume the worst, principally because they have set a precedent for derpitude.

Re: How to check if a file exists in Windows 8

CADbloke — Mon, 24 Sep 2012 05:48:59 -0000

If EDD makes you queasy then don't attack an AutoCAD API - it's pretty delicate and has a tendency to not check inputs for nulls etc. EDD is the order of the day and the only way to stay alive in that environment.

Re: The great pre-conference technical training #LabFail of 2011 - AuTechHeads Blogs

CADbloke — Tue, 30 Aug 2011 18:04:19 -0000

Sounds familiar. I ponied up for labs a couple of years ago and it was a constant battle with tech fail. The instructors at the time did a sterling job against the odds and I hold them totally blameless. We all noted it was nice of the Sysadmins to wipe everything overnight so the next day we could start from scratch. It's a shame it couldn't have been set up by an IT company experienced with big networks, servers and lots of users. Oh, wait.

Never again.
