Article Writing

Always write your articles offline, and only upload them when they are (almost) complete. Editing online is always risky, however hard the developers of CodeProject try to care for us.

Can't upload a big file to tip/trick - Unexpected error during upload. One or more files may not have been uploaded.

I see what's happening. The problem is the article editor is very particular. We also like to keep our article within the confines of 640 pixels. The only way to fit that text you wanted was to reduce the size. I've applied our custom table class to your table and changed the font size. Lemme know what you think.

I can't upload a .zip file with height ~25 MB to the tip/trick C#: WebBrowser vs Gecko vs Awesomium vs OpenWebKitSharp: What To Choose And How to Use
This file is demo project for OpenWebKitSharp (uploaded on third-party hosting now).
Upload progress comes to 100% and then I see this error.

25 MB is a bit too big for us, I'm afraid. The external link will be fine in this case.

I have to develop a dynamic code obfuscation technique with tamper-proofing to protect against the reverse engineering. Is it possible to develop code obfuscation using evolutionary computing.

It's probably not worth the trouble.

Have you looked at the available obfuscation solutions?

There's a difference between obfuscation and tamper-proofing things. There's no way to prevent reverse-engineering, but that should not matter if you want to make things tamper-proof Smile | :)

As for preventing reverse-engineering - as said, it is not worth the trouble. If I need to, I'll reuse it as is, without decompiling.

..and I'm starting to think that most code is like most database-structures; most managers think that it is a valuable company-secrect, where it is usually a non-normalized structure that gets beaten by one of the free structures on database-answers.org.

I reported this Tip/Trick as plagiarised by mistake : http://www.codeproject.com/script/Articles/ArticleVersion.aspx?waid=151343&aid=849706[^]. It is closed because of reports. Then i came to know about the same Author. I removed the post in S&A,but this content would be acceptable as Technical blog.

@Sean, would you please contact the Author as i can't find a way to notify him regarding the same (Tech. Blog).

This Tip seems no meaning and not explained properly. He has shown a sample SQL Function In his tip. Even the sample function from the Tip is not working.

hi, i was writing a tutorial for html5 webgl and my article got closed without discussion
even when i suggested i improve or broaden it according to the wishes of the people who decide whether my article gets published or not, I'm just curious was this a mistake or was this intended?

Yours truly,

It appears to have been published now, but I suspect it was marked down as it is rather short for an article. Maybe you should wait until you have more content before trying to publish.

Yeah thanks for looking into this, I will put the article on hold and improve the amount of content for the first part of the tutorial series, and then I will do the same treatment for tutorial part 2.

Thanks for your time mr. MacCutchan really appreciate it.

It was closed - as it is NOT an article. You should received a notification about it...
In any case it is still not an article. As title suggest it is a part of a series I advise to combine several parts (all of) to one single article instead of posting it in a blog-like fashion...

Hello mr. Kornfeld,

thank you for your advice, your time spent is appreciated by me and it is good to see activity and response times of this level at codeproject.com, tells something about the health of the site.
I must contest though that I would much prefer to write the tutorials as full articles instead of small tips or tricks and am willing to wait on the publish while I add content to them rather than convert them to tips. I'll add pictures, flesh out content more around the articles bones, whatever it takes, but I'd rather not publish anything at all if they will be forcibly converted to tips like some of the feedback suggested Frown | :(

I'll be adding more content in the coming days such as pictures of the finished results etc.

Thanks again for your response and time spent on this matter.

Kind regards,

Jani M.

Then you should write it everything down OFFLINE and when ready, come up with the full version. That way, the probability of getting it approved instead of being nuked down will be much higer

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Kali Linux articles?

I'm considering writing a couple of articles on pen-testing with Kali.

There's no real coding involved, but I still think it would be useful for developers (to test their apps etc), would this be cool (and considered on-topic etc)?
