Fixing compiler problems when using smart pointers in NetBeans

I like using NetBeans for C++ development within Linux environments. Sometimes a gotcha can occur when trying to use the following declaration: [code language="cpp"]#include <memory>[/code] You may wish use this in order to utilize smart pointers such as std::unique_ptr, leaving the user with a compilation error such as this: error: ‘unique_ptr’ in namespace ‘std’ does not name a template type It's easy enough to overcome. Just make sure the appropriate compiler flag is set in NetBeans. In NetBeans right-click your project and select Properties. Then select Additional Options field in Build > C++ Compiler: NetBeans In the Additional Options dialog just set the appropriate compilation flag such as -std=c++11: NetBeans2 Click on OK and then Apply and then you're away. You should now be able to use Standard Library smart pointers in NetBeans in Linux-based environments with no problems.

Using the Supervisor Controller Pattern to access View controls in MVVM

As discussed on a StackOverflow post , this is considered bad practice, so only use this when necessary. Step 1: Create a new WPF project Step 2: Add event handling code A number of classes are needed for doing command bindings in MVVM. Create the following classes and add to your Visual Studio project: RelayCommand.cs [code language="csharp"] using System; using System.Windows.Input; namespace SupervisorControllingPattern { public class RelayCommand<T> : ICommand { private readonly Predicate<T> _canExecute; private readonly Action<T> _execute; public RelayCommand(Action<T> execute) : this(execute, null) { _execute = execute; } public RelayCommand(Action<T> execute, Predicate<T> canExecute) { if (execute == null) throw new ArgumentNullException(nameof(execute)); _execute = execute; _canExecute = canExecute; ...

Getting started with client-server applications in C++

Image
A demonstration of simple Internet client-server applications in C++ (Linux-based). The client application tries to connect to the remote server application using the IP address of the remote server ('localhost' or 127.0.0.1) and the server port number which defaulted to 1234. The server application listens to port number 1234 for a connection request. When the server application receives the connection request it sends the text message "Hello!\r\n" to the client.

How to send an e-mail via Google SMTP using C#

First things first, some useful StackOverflow links: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9201239/send-e-mail-via-smtp-using-c-sharp https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17462628/the-server-response-was-5-7-0-must-issue-a-starttls-command-first-i16sm1806350 To demonstrate how this is done I first create a new Visual Studio project: Some example code for sending an email via a Google email account (smtp.goolgle.com) - obviously replace this with email / credentials of your own... I put the code within a try-catch block in order to capture any errors that may occur while attempting this. [code language="csharp"] using System; using System.Net; using System.Net.Mail; namespace EmailSmtp { class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { try { // Credentials var credentials = new NetworkCredential("someEmail@gmail.com", "somePassword"); // Mail message var ...
