Try

RE: [U2] mv.net versus Web DE

Jim,

I'm in NJ and would love to know about some of the local user groups.   For
all the Visual Studio haters out there, I've been using it for the past 5
years or so after a gazillion years in U2.  I'll go back to U2 stuff kicking
and screaming.  Visual Studio is FANTASTIC!!.

Yes, I said it.

Mike Randall,  MCP

[Ad - kind of] There may be another way for people on Long Island to get the
brand new Visual Studio 2008 Professional for free.  Next week (Dec. 6th),
the LI.NET Developers Group will be hosting a meeting and at that meeting
Microsoft will be giving away some copies of VS2008 Pro.  If you live on
Long Island and are interested in attending (you must register for the
meeting), please shoot me an email off-list.

I also know of a few other .NET developer groups where they will be doing
the same thing (NYC, NJ) so you may want to check into that if you belong to

Re: [U2] Deep and long indentations vs multiple exit points

Yes, but the example had only 3 tested conditions. Changing the number to
suit a method invalidates the original comparison. It's like 5+5 versus
5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5 whereby you change your method from adding to
multiplying.

If it's argued that every IF statement 'could' grow to a 'huge' number' then
throw away the IF alltogether and your program looks like this:

BEGIN CASE
    CASE X=1
        GOSUB 100
END CASE

Certainly compilable but distracting.

I agree, in the case of a long string of parsing, CASE is preferred. I write
tons of EDI parsers and they all case CASE.

In the big picture, especially in the example we are both working on, IF
statements generally conclude on one OR the other condition. If there's 3 or
more, and only one should prevail, then CASE wins.

My 3 cents.

Re: [U2] Deep and long indentations vs multiple exit points

I agree. On the few cases that I've run into RETURN TO, I've unprogrammed
it.

Part of the purpose of RETURN TO is that MV doesn't have the POP command
whereby you can remove one of the GOSUB stack references and 'return to' the
prior GOSUB statement.

Being one who can use GOTO properly and can mix it with GOSUB and CALL for
readable code, I don't use RETURN TO.

My 1 cent

RE: [U2] .net versus VS

Oh how little can evoke so much... If I tried to spare bandwidth and
summarize that your statement is a word jumble that doesn't make any sense,
I would be flamed as being rude.  So I'll explicitly refute most
inaccuracies that you've introduced and I hope it will settle some of this
confusion.  As always, sorry for being long-winded.

I could simply counter with the statement that most FLOSS projects built
over Linux don't work over Windows, so by your argument *nix is just as
limiting.

But your statement is non sequitur.  U2 doesn't have a Mac port, so does
that mean IBM is rather limiting?  If you were agreeing with Doug, he
didn't say Microsoft is limiting, he said Windows is - perhaps you have
just widened the scope.

Aside from that, your statement above is mixing apples and oranges
concerning the CLR and VS, and your notes about VS [snipped] sort of just
proved my point below.

There's no such thing as a "VS app" so your statement is only accurate in

RE: [U2] RE: U2 SOAP Server

Hey folks,

Just thought I'd take a second to reply back to the recent posts...

The SOAP Server included with U2WSD gets installed when you install the tool. There isn't an option (during
install) to install the SOAP Server by itself or elsewhere. That doesn't mean you can't relocate the SOAP
Server somewhere else when you are ready to deploy. If you have no GUI desktop (Gnome/KDE/etc.) on your
Linux server, then it will be hard to install U2WSD on that platform (and as such, gain access to the SOAP
Server). That wouldn't be an issue for Windows server users since Windows has a GUI desktop.

At the end of the day, the SOAP Server is just a simple Jetty server enhanced to communicated only with U2
servers enabled for it. It is really light-weight. You don't have to fire up U2WSD to start/stop it, but I
don't believe IBM includes that tidbit of info in there documentation.

Regards,

LeRoy

That WOULD make sense, but it's not indicated in LeRoys's reply. And there
are NO instructions on how to package this all up and run it under glassfish
or tomcat. I can ( and probably will, now ) dive into the subdirectories to
see if a jar/war file has been created, and if so, try to deploy it on my
glassfish server.

Actually, that's pretty untrue ...

Just as many (not most) .net projects will run with mono (Yes, I'm 
quoting you :-), most FLOSS projects built over linux will also run over 
cygwin.

Oh - and gtk and KDE both have windows ports, so most linux gui software 
will compile native on Windows, too ...

So, I'd guess *nix is rather *less* limiting :-)

Oh please, let's just jump to the trump card and say anything will run
anywhere with an emulator like Cygwin underneath, so none of the
environments are limiting as long as we have vmWare, Win4Lin, or some other
virtualization layer.

Does anyone have a real point here about .NET for serious discussion, or
has oneupmanship and technical bias against the unknown become an
acceptable driving force of this forum?
