If you are new to PC-lint, you may have wondered what message 830 ("Location cited in prior message") means, and - given that such messages can add greatly to the overall issue count in your file or project - what (if any) use are they?Quite simply, message 830 identifies a location in the codebase

A .lnt file is an "indirect file", which is simply a collection of PC-lint directives. Indirect files can be nested, and are expanded in the order they are encountered by PC-lint.However, if PC-lint encounters the same .lnt file twice in the same context during execution, it will abort with Fatal Er

Last night we descended en-masse on Berliner Republik, a quirky bar where the beer prices go up and down according to demand (they even have a mini stock exchange - watch for the crashes and run for the bar!). Really good food, too. OK...onto today's sessions:Using Networking, trade shows and organi

Last night's reception at Maximilian's restaurant on Friedrichstraße was great fun. Good food, great beer (I particularly liked the Berliner Weiß) and fantastic company. After breakfast we set up our stand in the sponsor's area (complete with the usual last minute presentation edits). A r

Visual Studio 2012 adds theme support to the IDE, with "light" and "dark" themes included by default. If you are developing a plug-in for VS2012, this is something you will need to take into account in any windows you create.
No tips have been posted.
I haven't always written software for a living. When I graduated from Surrey University in 1989, it was with an Electronic Engineering degree, but unfortunately that never really gave me the opportunity to do anything particularly interesting (with the possible exception of designing
Darth Vader's Codpiece * for the UK Army in 1990).
* Also known as the Standard Army Bootswitch. But that's another story...
Since the opportunity arose to lead a software team developing C++ software for
Avionic Test Systems in 1996, I've not looked back. More recently I've been involved in the development of subsea acoustic navigation systems, digital TV broadcast systems, port security/tracking systems, and most recently software development tools with my own company,
Riverblade Ltd.
One of my personal specialities is IDE plug-in development.
ResOrg was my first attempt at a plug-in, but my day to day work is with
Visual Lint, an interactive code analysis tool environment with works within the Visual Studio and Eclipse IDEs or on build servers.
I love lots of things, but particularly music, photography and anything connected with history or engineering. I
despise ignorant, intolerant and obstructive people - and it shows...I can be a bolshy cow if you wind me up the wrong way...
I'm currently based 15 minutes walk from the beach in Bournemouth on the south coast of England. Since I moved here I've grown to love the place - even if it is full of grockles in Summer!
