Coding
Over the years I learnt many things related to software development. These pages are meant to share some of those experiences.
One of the most important things every developer should have at least heard about are "design patterns". These are well though-through solutions for 'standard' problems.
At one point everyone will need to parse an XML-file. In C# there are standard libraries to handle this, but unfortunately in C++ this is not the case. There are several libraries which do handle it for you. On this page a plain-C xml-parser is presented with less then 200 lines of code without any dependencies and which can be dropped into your C/C++ project in no-time. Furthermore there are tutorials on starting with asp.net, creating a database, retrieving the information using stored procedures and display them on a website.
