Slowpipe allows the restriction of bandwidth on a modem network connection where a Unix pipe may be used. It was written to address a problem for users of a small network connected to a larger network with a low bandwidth connection. If you use such a connection for both interactive work, and transfer of large files it is possible that using programs such as ftp will consume all available bandwith, making the use of terminal emulators, X-windows etc., near impossible until the transfer is complete. Slowpipe is a simple pipe filter intended to pass all characters through unchanged, but to limit the transfer rate. It does not however have any special knowledge of TCP/IP or other protocols. You may wish to change the packet sizes to multiples of the MTU to your host network for optimal performance if you are able to establish this. The default values though have been found to work satisfactorily on more than one network. The ideal solution is to reconfigure the router to your host network to restrict bandwidth on specific ranges of TCP/IP port numbers though this was not possible in my case. Slowpipe has been tested under Linux and AIX and appears to perform as expected - though I offer no guarantees as this is free software. The user of the software must test their build. No liabilty shall be accepted for failure to perform as expected or consequential damages. I emphasise that this is a simple solution and better solutions may exist - but it solved our problem. http://www.birdsoft.demon.co.uk/proglib/slowpipe.htm

Create a toolbar/statusbar in a dialog. To add a control bar to a dialog, you must create the control bar as usual, and then make room for the control bar within the client area of the dialog. For the control bar to function properly, the dialog must duplicate some of the functionality of frame windows. If you want ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI handlers to work for the control bars, you also need to derive new control bar classes, and handle the WM_IDLEUPDATECMDUI message. If your dialog is not the main window of your application, you will also need to modify its parent frame window to pass the WM_IDLEUPDATECMDUI message on to the dialog's control bars. To make room for a control bar within the client area of the dialog, follow these steps in your dialog's OnInitDialog() function: http://stingsoft.com/mfc_faq/chapter6/chapter6_5.htm

The Variable Block Database (VBD) is a collection of C++ classes used to build portable database applications. Release 1031 features built-in support for multi-user and single user access. Database access methods include a B-tree with iterator and memory caching, navigational access, fixed and variable-length records. Includes general-purpose data structures such as linked lists, stacks, queues, balanced binary trees and others as well as a variable length string class, a postscript driver, and HTML driver. Ships with an advanced database recovery utility plus other text and binary utilities. Several example programs with are provided to demonstrate each of the concepts presented. This release has been built and tested under Windows 95/98, MSDOS, HPUX 10.20, Solaris 2.4, and RedHat Linux 5.2. All documentation is an HTML format, covering the class library, the example programs, and the utility programs included with the distribution. http://www.trumphurst.com/cpplibs5.html#Libraries_available_via_FTP__Q_Z_ Copyrighted freeware--Copyright © 1997 Douglas M.

The goal of the present HTTPFS project is to enable access to remote files, directories, and other containers (e.g., structured text documents, OS tables) through an HTTP pipe. HTTPFS system permits retrieval, creation and modification of these resources as if they were regular files and directories on a local filesystem. The remote host can be any UNIX or Win9x/WinNT box that is capable of running a Perl CGI script, and accessible either directly or via a web proxy or a gateway. HTTPFS runs entirely in user space. The current implementation fully supports reading as well as creating, writing, appending, and truncating of files on a remote HTTP host. HTTPFS provides an isolation level for concurrent file access stronger than the one mandated by POSIX file system semantics, closer to that of AFS. Both a programmatic interface with familiar open(), read(), write(), close(), etc. calls, and an interactive interface, via the popular Midnight Commander file browser, are provided. HTTPFS offers a glimpse of one of Plan9's jewels -- a uniform file-centric naming of disparate resources -- but without Plan9. This file system showcases HTTP, which is capable of far more than merely carrying web pages. HTTP can aspire to be the kingpin protocol that glues computing, storage, etc. resources together to form a distributed system -- the role 9P plays in Plan9. HTTPFS articles argue that unlike a popular catch phrase, it is the OS itself that is the browser. The client framework has been tested on GNU/Linux 2.0.36, HP-UX 10.xx, Sun Ultra-2/Solaris 2.6. An HTTPFS server will run on anything that can execute a Perl CGI script -- and this really means anything. The server has been tested on HP-UX B10.xx with a Netscape Server/1.12, Sun/Solaris 2.6 and Linux with an Apache/1.3.x server, and with Microsoft-IIS on WinNT 4.0.

DtWinVer is a routine which provides a comprehensive method to determine which OS the program that calls it is running on. All methods it uses are fully documented on various articles on the MSDN CD. The routine provides the emulated OS aswell as the underlying OS. e.g. to a Dos program Windows 95 looks like MS-DOS 7.0.

Create a form that will submit a URL to the search engines. Submision to 24 search engines is supported. The code includes both a form and a response file. Both may be customized. This first form should be placed in any .asp file. The 2nd file must be save as "submit.asp" in the cgi-bin directory. http://www.submitside.com/script/submit/aspsubmit.html

If you have a large amount of data to give to the user as HTML and this data needs to change once a day then this will speed up the process for the user. The following code will create a file the first time a page is hit for each day. The upside of doing it this way is you have a record of what the use saw on any given day. The downside is the first person takes the performance hit to write the page and you need to check to make sure the user came to this page first. In other words, if they save yesterdays page as a fovorite then they will see old data unless you redirect. I used the month and day to handle this problem. I did not use the year. There are many other ways to handle this problem. http://www.truegeeks.com/asp/mam/osdoc/osframe.asp

ADO has a great batch update feature that not many people take advantage of. You can use it to update many records at once without making multiple round trips to the database. Here is how to use it.

Transactions are atomic operations that allow you to do multiple operations on a database as one operation. For example, if you were creating a banking application in which you deducted $100 from one account and added it to another account, you wouldn't want the operation to fail right in the middle, because the money would be 'lost'! The solution is to wrap the SQL in a transaction. If the operation is aborted in the middle (the pc gets shut off for example) the database will rollback the changes so that the initial account was never debited the $100. This will make you feel good, especially if its your bank account!

You can use ADO GetRows to output and ADO recordset to an array. This is often useful in n-tier applications when you are moving data between tiers--or if you want to persist your data in another way. http://adozone.cnw.com/default.htm

Multi-function form for basic navigation, table editing, and recordset paging. This example includes code to dynamically build an SQL UPDATE command based on changed items on the current record. http://adozone.cnw.com/default.htm

I've recently taken over a project from someone else, and I've been left with code that has few naming conventions and a lot of bugs. I often find myself stepping through code wanting to check the value of a field. Unfortunately, I don't know the field's name-it could be Name, UserName, NameUser, txtName, and so on. It's a real pain to stop the program, click on the control in question, press [F4], get the control name, start the program again, and return to the point in the code where I was before. Here's a handy trick to get the control name right away. by Jeff Brown; Jeff.Brown@piog.com; Pioneering Management Corporation

Visual Basic 5.0 allows you to use UserControls to create ActiveX controls in your projects. The following code snippet does two things: It gets a reference to the form in which a UserControl is placed, and it gets a reference to that control on the form. by David Mendlen
