Help me understand "ugh".
Am I going to have to install more than just the studio package itself ?
|

eclipse is an IDE. I work with it every day and find it terrible.
Since the kit uses gcc, to run under windows, it will need MinGW (or cygwin) but I presume it will install those. (If someone wants to do a massive favor to developers, it would be to make a truly Windows native version of GCC/G++.)

Well done, old chap.
Just had a quick skim and will certainly re-read a couple of the chapters. 
However, I was very disappointed at the lack of gratuitous sex and violence and what happened to the protagonist??? You'll never get a movie deal based on this...

I hear Nicolas Cage is already signed up for the lead role!

Sit tight for part 2, it's introducing arch enemies Java and Oracle. Action, blood and violence guaranteed!
Then there's the girl, Linux. Sex will be raunchy and abundant.
As for the movie deal... Uwe Boll already contacted me

Makes me think of Tom Lehrer Lobachevsky[^] -
"Metro-Goldwyn-Moskva bought the movie rights for six million rubels, changing title to 'The Eternal Triangle' with Brigitte Bardot playing part of hypotenuse".

I too slurped it into my books collection even though my own preference is to mysql with a sprinkling of firebird. (No extra mileage from selling my soul to two evil empires, but who knows what might happen down the road.)

I've used Firebird at University (they used Firebird because of all SQL databases it's closest to the ANSI standard).
I didn't know people actually used that in real life 
It did seem like a good enough database, but it seemed immature to me at the time (lacking good tooling, etc.).

Couple of clients had some software that uses firebird as back end, developed a few quick inquiry apps for them. (One is not even on the latest version of fb to make it even more fun - even less features.)
It's not a choice I would make as I agree that it's got an immature feel about it; sad really coz fb is actually quite a few years old but still lacks a lot of basic features, types and functions, many face-palms later can get around with what's there, but then found the numeric float/double precision is something to be really wary of: had to resort to using fixed digit decimal (store as int and use * / 10000) as even at 4 decimal places the accuracy was shocking.
- But I guess that's ANSI: always needs use twice the work/code to get things done.
Luckily .Net connector works well enough - as long as you stay away from blobs.

I've downloaded it to my Dropbox account for future perusal

I had a quick look through after I downloaded it and it looks very useful. I've saved it on our shared development folder at work for the rest of the development team too

That's awesome, thanks!

Thanks, Sander! I grabbed it and will be checking it out shortly. I've got a little project in mind, and need to refresh my SQL Server memory; getting old sucks! 
Will Rogers never met me.

True, but some mornings it's hard to remember even that.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Thank you Sander!
The index looks interesting. Also I am going to share this with my friends.
You can have all the tools in the world but if you don't genuinely believe in yourself, it's useless.
