Allixon International Corporation Signs 
Educational-Industrial Cooperation Agreement with Research Center 
for Logistics Information Technology (LIT) of Pusan National University
Monday October 17, 10:36 am ET 


NEW YORK, Oct. 17, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) - Allixon International Corporation 
(Other OTC:AXCP.PK - News) has signed an Educational-Industrial 
cooperation agreement with Logistics Information Technology 
to further enhance RFID business in the Korean and global RFID markets. 
LIT is the Korean national project for developing the next generation 
of logistics information technology. LIT is a joint initiative 
of Pusan National University, Dong-A University 
and Pukyong National University. LIT is funded by the Korean Ministry 
of Education and Human Resources Development, for the 2004-2013 period. 
The annual budget of LIT is US$3,000,000. Today, LIT is in partnership 
with more than 15 corporations and government agencies.

Its has four major research topics: Future Distributed Computing Technologies 
for Logistics, Mobile Technologies for IT-based Logistics 
in Ubiquitous Network Environments, Intelligent Logistics System Technology 
and Advanced Technologies for Automated Container Terminals. In these topics, 
Allixon will join in the first topic, Future Distributed Computing Technologies 
for Logistics, to develop a smart RFID middleware to support passive tags 
and active tags together.

Allixon will focus on developing four basic technologies as follows: 
a technique for location tracking of logistics using GPS/RFID, 
middleware technology for the control and management of readers 
for next-generation logistic tags, distributed platform structures 
and middleware technologies for logistics information network, 
and semantic-based integrated management of logistics resources 
and adaptive authentication software technologies.

LIT, in conjunction with SUN Microsystems RFID Test Center 
at Pusan National University, has been established to support companies 
which are going to observe the RFID application plans. 
The SUN Microsystems RFID Test Center at Pusan National University 
has been built based on RFID Test Center in Dallas, but modified 
to suit the Korean environments. Allixon will also join this 
SUN Microsystems RFID Test Center to use it as an excellent test bed 
for the many companies which want to engraft RFID technologies 
to their business.

Re: [Dev-C++] A question about acmDriverAdd and acmDriverRemove APIs

[Alfred P. R. <al...@ya...>]

Hi Gartano,
 
In my experience with this kind of occurrence, usually it means more than one library file contains the same definition and your linker parameter -lmsacm32 is probably pointing to the wrong one.
 
That is why I recommend using grep (FINDSTR in MS Windows), used from the root of the dev-cpp library directories to find all libraries that may contain this reference.  Alternatively, it may be that libmsacm32.a library file is not in a default path, i.e. ~/dev-cpp/lib or that you haven't included it's directory in Project Options->Directories->Library Directory tab if it's not in a default path.

In my project I also use others ACM APIs such as acmDriverOpen(),

The matter is the linking step:

Re: [Dev-C++] Linking problems

[Alfred P. R. <al...@ya...>]

Hi Andreas,
 
The only thing that I can obviously see is the text:
-lC:/Programme/Microsoft Platform SDK/Lib/WtsApi32.Lib
 
As gcc is using the Unix convention for path names, the spaces in the path name will cause a problem.  Try single quoting it as -l'C:/Programme/Microsoft Platform SDK/Lib/WtsApi32.Lib'.   If that doesn't work, just physically copy it to the lib folder of dev-cpp.
 
The other possibility is that if you're adding this to the to the linker parameters with the -l, that -l tries to add the prefix lib and suffix .a to the library, making it actually libWtsApi32.Lib.a which won't be found.  As an example my use of -lgimp-2.0 in Project Options->Parameters->Linker actually refers to libgimp-2.0.dll.a in the default lib directory.

It occurs to me that the problem (which is very widespread, imho) isn't
so much technical as it is attitudinal.  Real software engineering is
science with a healthy dose of craftsmanship.  Based on the observations
you made, I don't think any amount of books or courses are going to do
much for those people.  A lot (most) of people are simply not suited for
designing and writing software.  Most people are utilitarian, and "good
enough" is good enough.  To make quality happen, you have to be a
perfectionist with a burning desire to make something elegant and
beautiful.  You have to care.

Sometimes, when people are mentored properly, and when they're exposed
to the right principles, attitudes, and approaches, it can bring out
greatness and great developers are born.  Other times, no amount of
exposure to things done correctly seems to do any good.

I'm very interested in the topic you brought up.  Over the years I've
seen very few truly great designers and developers; most were just
mediocre, and a lot should have never been allowed behind a keyboard.  I
think a lot of it comes with staffing properly.  If anyone thinks you
can take any smart guy, or any engineer, and make him a great developer,
I think he's missing the boat.  People have to really, really love it,
and want it, and it has to come from inside.  Another part of the
problem is that it takes one to know one.  Few people in the position to
make staffing decisions are capable of discerning which end is up.

That said, there are basic things that even poor developers should be
taught so that they approach problems in the right way.  To this end,
over the years I developed a manual of best practices which I gleaned
from a lot of exposure to the good and the bad.  I think that if you can
formalize a description of "best practices," along with explanations
about why this is the right thing to do, and why no other way is
acceptable, you can open dialog and get people thinking about the right
things.  Even time spent arguing about this or that approach has merit,
because intelligent people will begin to think about the value of the
positions taken by the proponents.  

My suggestion is to avoid buying any books- instead, maybe come up with
your own white-paper on "best practices," and start brain-storming with
the guys.  Perhaps if you have a really fine example of some software or
a really slick application (and I'm talking about design and
implementation, not what the end-user sees!) then go over the high
points in a casual setting and let people see how it's done, and why.

Regards,

Israel

The third edition of Scott Meyers' excellent book was recently published.  The
title is slightly different: "Effective C++: 55 Specific Ways to Improve Your
Programs and Designs."  I highly recommend it - even for those persons with an
earlier version.  Much has changed.

In addition to that there are so many books from which to choose.  How about:

Code Reading: The Open Source Perspective by Diomidis Spinellis

Refactoring: Improving the Design of Existing Code by Martin Fowler

If all else fails, perhaps leave some books on resume writing lying around as a
not-too-subtle hint.

=====
For somewhat experienced developers I highly recommend this book:
"Effective C++:50 Specific Ways to Improve Your Programs and Design (2nd
Edition)"
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0201924889/qid=1129469217/sr=8-1/ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i1_xgl14/103-8482603-4095850?v=glance&s=books&n=507846

I also recommend the "Software Project Survival Guide" which although is
not a book on programming covers well the topic of software engineering:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1572316217/qid=1129469431/sr=8-1/ref=pd_bbs_1/103-8482603-4095850?v=glance&s=books&n=507846

[Vishnu M M. <vis...@ya...>]

Hello all.

Suppose you are asked to suggest 5 somewhat small
books that will significantly improve C++/software
engineeering literacy in a company whose main product
is a 500,000 line software written in (you guessed
it!) C++. Most of the employees are
otherwise-intelligent Electrical Engg. graduates who,
unfortunately, write HORRENDOUS code ("it doesn't
matter what the variable is named as long as it is
named something", "don't worry about where I place my
function, just use it", dynamically allocated objects
where automatic variables would *perfectly* suffice,
massively redundant coding, zero documentation...).

What would your suggestions be?

VM.

[Dev-C++] Templates and "custommakefile"

[Andreas M. <and...@gm...>]

Hello,

I use dev-cpp together with QT 4.01.
I created a templated file like explained in
http://translate.google.com/translate?u=http%3A%2F%2Fnicolasj.developpez.com%2Farticles%2Fqt4%2F&langpair=fr%7Cde&hl=de&ie=UTF8

For qt projects a custom makefile must e used.
I tried to put this lines to the [ Project ] section of my template file

UseCustomMakefile=1
CustomMakefile=Makefile.Release

but this does not work. Dev-cpp ignores this parameters.
Is this the wrong section or is it necessary to set the full path to the 
makefile ?

How can i set in the template that the exe is build in the "release" 
sub-directory  of the project
