If I create an empty class in the same project, I am able to inherit from it as one would expect. However, if I try to place it in another assembly -- one that I've been able to reference and use classes from -- I get the following error:
Unable to load one or more of the requested types. Retrieve the LoaderExceptions property for more information.
Other information that may be pertinent (I am not normally a SharePoint developer): I compile the dlls, reference them from the dev project, and copy them into the /bin directory of the SharePoint instance. The assemblies are all signed. I'm am attempting to deploy using VS2008's 'deploy' feature.
Unfortunately, this does not appear to be a SharePoint specific error, and I'm not sure how to solve the problem. Has anyone experienced this and do you have any suggestions?

I'm looking for either a ready-made tool or a programmatic way to achieve this.

Surveys often contain many complex rules and branches which are triggered on how items are responded too. All surveys are rigorously tested before being released to clients. This testing results in a lot of manual work. I would like to learn of some options I could use to automate these tests by responding to questions and verifying the results in the database. The survey sites are produced by an engine which creates and writes asp pages and receives the responses to process into a database. So the only way I can determine to test the site is to interact with the web pages themselves.

I am using the type inference scheme described in [Top Quality Type Error Messages](http://people.cs.uu.nl/bastiaan/phdthesis/index.html) by Bastiaan Heeren, but I'd assume that the general idea is probably the same in all Hindley-Milner-esque approaches.
It seems like coercion could be treated as a form of overloading, but the overloading approach described in this paper doesn't consider (at least not in a way I could follow) overloading based on requirements that the context places on return type, which is a must for coercions. I'm also concerned that such an approach might make it difficult to give priority to the identity coercion, and also to respect the transitive closure of coercibility. I can see sugaring each coercible expression, say *e*, to coerce(*e*), but sugaring it to coerce(coerce(coerce(... coerce(*e*) ...))) for some depth equal to the maximum nesting of coercions seems silly, and also limits the coercibility relation to something with a finite transitive closure whose depth is independent of the context, which seems (needlessly?) restrictive. | programming-languages | compiler | types | type-inference | type-theory | null | open | How to infer coercions?

I would like to make the smallest possible change in hopes of getting my patch accepted upstream. Solutions that are implementable in standard C++ and do not create more external dependencies are preferred.
Here is my problem. I have a C++ class -- let's call it "A" -- that currently uses fprintf() to print its heavily formatted data structures to a file pointer. In its print function, it also recursively calls the identically defined print functions of several member classes ("B" is an example). There is another class C that has a member std::string "foo" that needs to be set to the print() results of an instance of A. Think of it as a to_str() member function for A.
In pseudocode:
class A {
public:
...
void print(FILE* f);
B b;
...
};
...
void A::print(FILE *f)
{
std::string s = "stuff";
fprintf(f, "some %s", s);
b.print(f);
}
class C {
...
std::string foo;
bool set_foo(std::str);
...
}
...
A a = new A();
C c = new C();
...
// wish i knew how to write A's to_str()
c.set_foo(a.to_str());
I should mention that C is fairly stable, but A and B (and the rest of A's dependents) are in a state of flux, so the less code changes necessary the better. The current print(FILE* F) interface also needs to be preserved. I have considered several approaches to implementing A::to_str(), each with advantages and disadvantages:
1. Change the calls to fprintf() to sprintf()
* I wouldn't have to rewrite any format strings
* print() could be reimplemented as: fprint(f, this.to_str());
* But I would need to manually allocate char[]s, merge a lot of c strings , and finally convert the character array to a std::string
2. Try to catch the results of a.print() in a string stream
* I would have to convert all of the format strings to << output format. There are hundreds of fprintf()s to convert :-{
* print() would have to be rewritten because there is no standard way that I know of to create an output stream from a UNIX file handle (though [this guy says it may be possible](http://synflood.at/blog/index.php?/archives/456-One-word-of-warning-about-stdio_filebuf.html)).
3. Use Boost's [string format library](http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_36_0/libs/format/doc/format.html)
* More external dependencies. Yuck.
* Format is not (fully) compatible with format strings, so I would still have to rewrite all or most of the format strings.
4. Use Qt's QString::printf()
* A different external dependency.
* Looks like QString::printf() is [on its way out](http://www.potu.com/man/doc.trolltech.com/4.0/qstring.html)
So, have I exhausted all possible options? If so, which do you think is my best bet? If not, what have I overlooked?
Thanks.
| c++ | string | format | printf | null | null | open | C++: how to get fprintf results as a std::string w/o sprintf
===
I am working with an open-source UNIX tool that is implemented in C++, and I need to change some code to get it to do what I want. I would like to make the smallest possible change in hopes of getting my patch accepted upstream. Solutions that are implementable in standard C++ and do not create more external dependencies are preferred.

As you can see it's not symmetrical, as Jack, Kim and Lucy report to Alice but have no reports of their own.
Using a `TreeView` with an `ItemsPanel` containing a `StackPanel` and `Orientation="Horizontal"` is [easy enough][1], but this can result in a very large `TreeView` once some people have 20 others reporting to them! You can [also use][2] `Triggers` to peek into whether a `TreeViewItem` has children with `Property="TreeViewItem.HasItems"`, but this is not in the same context as the before-mentioned `ItemsPanel`. *Eg: I can tell that Fred has reports, but not whether they have reports of their own.*
So, can you conditionally format `TreeViewItems` to be Vertical if they have no children of their own?

I'm using the ruby-aaws gem to access Amazon ECS: <http://www.caliban.org/ruby/ruby-aws/>. This defines an class Amazon::AWS:Error:
module Amazon
# All dynamically generated exceptions occur within this namespace.
#
module Error
# An exception generator class.
#
class AWSError
attr_reader :exception
def initialize(xml)
err_class = xml.elements['Code'].text.sub( /^AWS.*\./, '' )
err_msg = xml.elements['Message'].text
unless Amazon::AWS::Error.const_defined?( err_class )
Amazon::AWS::Error.const_set( err_class,
Class.new( StandardError ) )
end
ex_class = Amazon::AWS::Error.const_get( err_class )
@exception = ex_class.new( err_msg )
end
end
end
end
This means that if you get an errorcode like `AWS.InvalidParameterValue`, this will produce (in its exception variable) a new class `Amazon::AWS::Error::InvalidParameterValue` which is a subclass of `StandardError`.
Now here's where it gets weird. I have some code that looks like this:
begin
do_aws_stuff
rescue Amazon::AWS::Error => error
puts "Got an AWS error"
end
Now, if `do_aws_stuff` throws a `NameError`, my rescue block gets triggered. It seems that Amazon::AWS::Error isn't the superclass of the generated error - I guess since it's a module everything is a subclass of it? Certainly if I do:
irb(main):007:0> NameError.new.kind_of?(Amazon::AWS::Error)
=> true
It says `true`, which I find confusing, especially given this:
irb(main):009:0> NameError.new.kind_of?(Amazon::AWS)
=> false
What's going on, and how am I supposed to separate out AWS errors from other type of errors? Should I do something like:
begin
do_aws_stuff
rescue => error
if error.class.to_s =~ /^Amazon::AWS::Error/
puts "Got an AWS error"
else
raise error
end
end
That seems exceptionally janky.

So I have been looking for something like TextMate, which is very simplistic in its interface but very powerful beneath that surface, with a plugin system and all.
Is there any similar editor for Linux? | linux | editor | textmate | null | null | null | open | Which text/code editor on Linux is most similar to TextMate?

code+description+isdeleted
where code is the primary key.
The user creates a record, then later on deletes it. Because I am using soft deletes the isdeleted will be set to true. Then in my queries I would be doing a select with the where clause:
and not isdeleted
Now if a user goes to create a new record they may see that code 'ABC' doesn't exist so they tried to recreate it. The select statement won't find it because of the where clause. But there will be a primary key index error.
Should the user be allowed to re-use the record? I would think not since the idea of the soft delete is to keep the record for queries on older data s that joins to the 'deleted' record still work. If the user was allowed to re-use the code then they could change the description which might change the view of the historical data. But is it too harsh to stop them from using that code at all?
Or should I be using a completely hidden primary key and then the 'code' field can be re-used?

Sometimes when I work on an existing project I feel like a special forces operative behind enemy lines trying to figure out the lay of the land without the use of a map.

How do you:
1. find out how things work
1. understand the mindset of the previous authors
So many times I hear other developers say well this just needs to be rewritten that can't always be the answer. What is yours? | refactoring | null | null | null | null | null | open | How do you find your way around a new codebase

While there are a lot of examples to be found that convert 123 into one hundred twenty three, I could not find good examples of how to convert it the other way around.
Some of the caveats: There are also at least two kinds of number-words, cardinal and orginal, seven and seventh. Sometimes 1100 is written as eleven hundred, and not one thousand and one hundred. Suppose the algorithm needs to be very robust, and understand even spelling mistakes.
