I watched an English comedy last night and a guy pooed in a plastic container and threw it out a back window while in hostage crisis and the bomb squad sent a robo in to blow it up, was a funny situation!
As I grow older I've found that pleasing everyone is impossible but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake.

Hello this is my first post and I would like to ask for a hand to all of you!
I have to implement an interface for monitoring, this will have two types of connections (RS232 and Ethernet) that can be chosen at the discretion of the user.
I would like to create a client / server in C + + but this one has to manage two protocols tcp (ethernet) and one serial (RS232).
I can not get a view and be able to define high-level architecture which can then later go to handle only the two protocols (of course the two types of connection can never be used together).
Can anyone give me a guideline??
thank you

First advice is don't ask questions here. Pop over to Quick Answers[^] and Griff and the Boys will help you out quicker than you can say antidisestablishmentarianism.

You place a drop down with the two protocols and when the user selects one, switch it.
This is known as the drop-down methodology of software development.

As opposed to the bottoms up methodology, where all code is written by Nagy?

Yes, but code written on the bottom of the barstool is rarely usable as is; several pints of debugger are usually required.

Yes; don't post programming questions here: it says so quite clearly above. If you can't read and understand that, what hope do you have?

I have a new requirement for a content based routing thing, if a value in an xml message is true then it goes to two places, otherwise it goes to just the one.
Capture a message, find the node, look at the value - false.
So I code for true and false.
It doesn't work.
Capture a message that didn't behave as I thought it should, look at the value - yes.
Look at a few more.
Yep, for reasons that I cannot begin to imagine the value of the node I am trying to route on is false or yes.
yes or no, true or false, 1 or 0, penis or vagina.
What kind of sick mind goes for yes or false?

It's an OO world.
public class SanderRossel : Lazy<Person>
{
public void DoWork()
{
throw new NotSupportedException();
}
}

Yes, your code needs to be more flexible:
if (messageValue.ToLower().MatchesOneOf("1", "yes", "true", "vb sucks"))
{
message.SendToTwoPlaces();
}
else if (messageValue.ToLower().MatchesOneOf("0", "no", "false", "vb rocks"))
{
message.SendToOnePlace();
}
else
{
throw new UserTooUncertainException(messageValue);
}
Probably should really add all the trew/falls options to a couple of dictionaries but I couldn't be bothered; you get the idea!
