I''ve been contemplating the utilization of "tags" functionality for categorizing records in my application. For example, a record can have any tag associated with them: volunteer, donor, phone_caller, etc. (Much like delicious) Has anyone already laid out a good architecture for implementing this on the DB, or other medium? I''m sure I can custom build something, but

I'm trying to write some tests for inline asm constraints, single and multiple alternative. Does anyone know of some example/test code using all or some subset of the constraint letters for one or more platforms that I could look at? Does anyone know how to set up an asm statement using the "o" constraint? Thanks. -John -- John Thompson John.Thompson.JTSoftware at gmail.com

>From the newbie corner... In the demo video our illustrious Rails guru summons textmate with "e ." from the command line, magically opening textmate within the context of the respective rails app. I downloaded textmate, love it, but want to know how to make the same magic happen from the command line, rather than having to open the app via gui in the Applications folder. Thanks.

Hi John, Have you looked at the GCC test suite? It certainly has some examples -- I know for sure because one of them is now failing with Clang after your recent patch. :) I have a hacked up version in the 'clang-tests' module in SVN which has been made a bit easier to run with clang. - Daniel On Mon, Sep 20, 2010 at 12:07 PM, John Thompson <john.thompson.jtsoftware at

Running script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/laszlo-plugin/tags/openlaszlo fails, returning the help information for the "export" command: export: Create an unversioned copy of a tree. usage: 1. export [-r REV] URL [PATH] 2. export [-r REV] PATH1 [PATH2] etc... Has anyone encountered this before? System info: Mac OS 10.4.4. ruby 1.8.2 (2004-12-25) svn, version

Dale, Thanks. It's not changed, but I've enclosed a fresh patch against today's trunk. However, I'm seeing 28 unexpected failing tests in llvm/test on x86 Linux 64 today. But it's the same on an unmodified tree, so I guess I'm still okay. It passed at one point for me with these changes. -John On Wed, Sep 1, 2010 at 5:04 PM, Dale Johannesen <dalej at apple.com>

Thanks, Stuart. Sorry, I had some left-over editing cruft in my email. >From Googling runtest, I had found dejagnu, which I'd heard some folks were using over there, so I used the local package manager to install it. But from what you said I went ahead and got the dejagnu sources and built it, but had problems in running make install, which is trying to put it /usr/local/bin rather than

Actually the 2.8 fork is coming up tomorrow and I'm thinking maybe we should wait until after that. Is this something you really want to get in 2.8?

Daniel, Sorry, I'm implementing the back-end support for multiple-alternative constraints in stages. I wouldn't expect any serious inline asm multiple alternative constraints tests to work yet, as a number of the constraint characters aren't implemented yet. I'll try to fix it so that it doesn't assert when unsupported constraints are used. Clang may have passed parsing

I require some advice. I've had samba running nicely for a couple of months, however I needed to change the ip addresses for my network. Since changing the ip addresses, whenever I start WinXp and log on it takes about 3-4 mins to log on. Also when I try to browse using windows explorer I sometimes have to wait 3-4mins, then I get the same delay when logging off. If I use dos though and change

Fine Rails Hackers: I am trying to decide how to approach a templating concern. I would like to define a standard template for all of my pages (including a basic header, styles, footer) across my five base controllers: desktop, events, financials, and records, account. Is there a top level place to declare a template across the entire application regardless of the controller? I understand how

Hello, Is there a way to have str() and ls.str() return all factor levels? Thanx, DaveT. ************************************* Silviculture Data Analyst Ontario Forest Research Institute Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources david.john.thompson at ontario.ca http://ofri.mnr.gov.on.ca

What is the new way to check if a parent has child items? In rails 1.2.6 I did this: if @client.has_line_items? Client being the parent and line_items the children. Now that I have upgraded to rails 2.0.1 (on my way to current :-) ) I am getting this message: undefined method `has_line_items?'' for #<Client:0x7f3b093b01a0> How should I format the query now? Regards, Paul

I'll almost certainly come along, possibly with one or two other NASA people. I could give a talk on our work using LLVM to support model checking, symbolic execution and static analysis if anyone is interested. Sarah Thompson RSE/6G, NASA Ames >

I'd like to remove duplicated rows within a matrix, with missing data being treated as wildcards. For example > x <- matrix((1:3), 5, 3) > x[4,2] = NA > x[3,3] = NA > x [,1] [,2] [,3] [1,] 1 3 2 [2,] 2 1 3 [3,] 3 2 NA [4,] 1 NA 2 [5,] 2 1 3 I would like to obtain [,1] [,2] [,3] [1,] 1 3 2 [2,] 2 1 3

Greetings: I am writing a basic accounting module for an app. Rather unfortunately the name "transactions" is a reserved term in Rails (being the only accounting term trully representational of a financial transaction). I am left to come up with other names. One such name was f_transaction. This worked on the DB level, but I noticed that the Model name dropped the underscore, thus

I'm close to confirming that I get the equivalent results from the test-suite with my changes, compared to a fresh tree, on a Linux x86 64 bit box. When that is the case, may I check in my current changes for the LLVM side? My preference is to develop the mult-alt support incrementally, rather than one big check-in, as I get nervous sitting on a lot of changes for a long time. I feel this

I''m sure I''m missing something rudimentary here... I seem to be having difficulty getting my favicon to appear. I have my favicon.ico in the public folder. I''ve configured my route.rb to route the intro page to my "home" controller. I''m using application.rb in my views to template the headers and footers. Here is the tag in my <head> in the
