Nice take on Pascal

And yeah do you have OOAD documentation otherwise I won't even concider touching it with a 10ft pole

The software is complete, however it needs to be converted for use in South Africa as it was originally designed for the American market. We have the full source and documentation as well.

btw nice ave.

hmm that means language packs, currency conversions, tax rate implications stuff like that?

skeetr · Post by **skeetr** » 18 Jan 2006, 14:26

thanks.
Well mostly it would be currency related. The program is already in english and i do not beleive more language packs will be required. Basically the program just needs to be converted and branded for our purposes, along with currency changes.

oy, you underestimate the power of pascal, I actually wrote an mp3 player compatable with a sound blaster 16 when I was in school. As for your SHARP , do you want it to play mp3s?

I'm still trying to find a programmer with experience in java. Any offers??

Java is for wannabe's

REAL programmers code in C++

PS. Sorry mate, can't help you there.

why does it have to be joburg. Durban is so much better

Code: Select all

javax.swing.JFrame frm = new javax.swing.JFrame("An actual Frame");
frm.setDefaultCloseOperation(javax.swing.JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
frm.setVisible(true);

three lines, and a window appears... and disposes cleanly when closed...

same op in c++?

me am a wannabe

just couldn't resist it...

Who said programming must be easy?

[technical]
Firstly, mr. 3 lines of code. You forgot to mention that you still need to fill in the main class. Just the 3 lines alone in a file will not do anything.
Not to mention
-that JRE must be running
-that Hundreds of lines of code is actually referenced when it runs
-that it's 1000000000000 times slower than a native C++ window
-that the cleanup is done by another million lines of code in the form of a garbage collector, which only runs when it sees fit.
-etc, etc, etc.
[/technical]

It's like the difference between a True Cracker, and a script kiddie.

Java devs are just using classes written by other people to do the HARD WORK.

This application is done in c++ server side, with a java GUI.
Only currency appears to be hard coded, therefore i require one person that keeps to C++ and one person that can just take care of the java side.

yup... but unlike their c++ counterparts they don't rebuild their starter motor everytime they take the car for a spin...

ribbing you... I use both extensively, but in the bus world, java's gui, regex and encryption usage is a lot less error prone

OK last spam post. Just to clear it up.

No, C++ programmers clone (Copy and Paste) a starter motor that they've built up previously for another car.

Unlike their java counterparts who always use the same Jumbo Jet Starter motor, even to start a 50cc motorbike.

My Last point (I Promise) is:
The REAL Programmer thing is kind of a long standing joke, you should know that.

It has nothing to do with real world application, but mostly about total coding geekyness.

Our company based in Sandton Gauteng is still seeing the services of a programmer with knowledge in Linux, Fedora/Redhat with IBM DB2 experience. Also Java development and JSP with experience with Apache Tomcat. Position is available immediately on a contract to permenant basis. The salary is 20k p/m negotiable.

Can do it in one line for you. But then again you can do it in one life for C++ as well. Not that you would understand any of it.

skeetr: I do Java development. I take it that it is a client side application without any networking to complicate things.

skeetr · Post by **skeetr** » 13 Feb 2006, 11:36

It is more or less. There are a few more things to it though.
If you're interested let me know.

I would be incorrect and foolish to assume otherwise but if you don't say precisely what it will entail then no one will even attempt because they won't know what to expect.

Anyway if I do it I will have to do it from home since I have a business to run.
