Having watched the decline and vanishing of blackberry from the point of view of a blackberry user, I'm watching the same pattern repeat with laptops and desktops. I expect the same result. Partly, it requires the manufacturers actively attempting to kill the product -- blackberry successfully did this, laptop and PC manufacturers are currently engaged in doing so.
We can program with only 1's, but if all you've got are zeros, you've got nothing.

I am working on a generic code editor application (if I can get VS to cooperate with me) and I am using PowerShell for the build scripts.
I basically have a few scripts with utility functions, and the main ci-build.ps1 script that references the other scripts.
Any PowerShell tips you guys would like to share?
EDIT: And now I have found that MSBuild doesn't like a full path to a solution file, it just says the current working directory does not contain a solution or project file.
The working directory doesn't have a solution file, but I pass the absolute path to MSBuild, so one would think it would work.

This isn't a programming question, I just wondered what people had figured out.

I've been using the VS2012 extensions for AStyle and Uncrustify. The first does not quite work for me and the second does work somewhat but removes bookmarks and breakpoints every time it's run.
What do you guys use?

Well played, sir, well played.
BTW: to be serious: there is no finer tool than your own brain and eyes to "beautify" and clean your code.

You seem to be missing the point. Are you a programmer? How much time do you spend "beautifying with your eyes" tens of thousands of lines of legacy code?

None: you never mentioned legacy code.

See above: you have not clearly stated your point or have mis-stated it.

Check my profile before asking silly questions.
I retract my well played - you didn't play well at all.

You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named "Bush", "Dick", and "Colon."

I would, but Japan is a little too far and I don't waste my time with humorless numptys.

It sounded like you were saying that there's something wrong with him using a program to format his code instead of doing it himself manually.
Is that the humor you say he is missing?

I didn't say there was anything wrong with using a program to format reams of legacy code. He never mentioned legacy code so I attempted a somewhat amusing response, albeit you can use your brain to decide how to format your own code.

Why would you even wanto to beautify legacy code?
It's legacy code. Leave it be, or rewrite it.
I don't beautify code. Code does not have to be beautifull. It has to work, and has to be readable. Make up and earrings will not make your code better. It will just distract you, and fool you into thinking it's perfect, untill it opens "it's" mouth and all that comes out is crap.
Focus on better code, make it readable, add comments when needed. And structure it in the way you think it makes it easier to read and follow the logic behind it, but do it yourself and don't rely on tools.
Who knows, maybe you'll catch a bug or two, or even identify flaws in the logic side.

You don't know what a code beautifier is or what it does, do you?
That's fine, of course.
Moving on...
|
|
|
|
|
Yes I do.
Which is why I say that you should not rely on those.
When you don't have a code beautifier on hand, and not even able to get one, what are you gonna do?
