- Spices.Net Suite: All about .Net Visual Studio Can't Do — Spices.Net Suite is a collection of utilities, which brings all the strength the .Net platform *potentially* has right in a developer’s hands. Unfortunately, the functionality of the tools created by Microsoft for their own platform is always much poorer than what it could be, and Spices.Net is addressed to fix this drawback. Once installed, Spaces.Net Suite will provide you with pretty and usable environment, completely…
- paxScript.NET .A Script Might Be Everywhere — The implementation of many software projects requires at least two different languages: an industry-level one for the project’s core, its powerful «engine», and a scripting language, which would be interpreted when the program is running. Scripting languages are typically simpler and slower than the industrial ones, but they have their own area of application. These languages are often used when the advanced users or third-party…
- Active Multimedia SFX Library — Three common types of media create digital content: text, image, and sound. They are similar as they can have various origins and various means, be used for various purposes and in various amounts. But the difference between the three types of content is the ease of production. As for text — anybody can write text, with any computer (or even without it), texts are easy to compile and rework; creating new images is harder, but with…
- GNCutter32 1.1. Let a Professional Library Do It — Some obvious tasks in the area of «practical algorithms» seem to be easy at the first glance, but as you try to complete them, you more and more tend to think you can’t do it! A good example of that is a frequent material-cutting planning task, which is completely solved by the GNCutter32 library. The library’s most outstanding feature is that it is not just…
- Math Mechanixs — Computers were initially created for solving mathematical problems. However, these days we rarely use our PC’s for this purpose. If your activities involve complex calculations that cannot be performed using a calculator or standard applications found in your operating system, you need specialized mathematical software, which, unfortunately, is expensive and requires a lot of time to learn. Fortunately, there are alternatives that…
- Easy Net Switch – a dream come true for real net-hoppers — If all networks were absolutely the same, they would’ve called it network utopia. No network-specific IP addresses, passwords, DNS servers, drive mappings, proxy and gateway addresses — all these things that may take hours to configure, especially when there is not system administrator around. Unfortunately, networks are all different and active users that commute between offices, building, departments, home and corporate networks know very well…
- VectorEye - the most hassle-free method to turn regular images into vector graphics — Whenever you need to convert a standard bitmap image into the vector format to use in a Flash movie or any of the popular vector-based applications, such as CorelDraw, Adobe Illustrator, Mobile Designer, Swish, Inkskape or others, you face a dilemma of doing it manually or finding a tool to perform the conversion for you. Manual conversion may take hours or even days, so you should think well prior…
- MagicTracer: Raster to Vector Converted Simple Way — Raster images are pretty to look at, but are hard to work with. One of the reasons is they are hard, time-consuming to reproduce. Normally, when you need a vector image, you simply draw it from scratch in a vector image editor. But what are you supposed to do if you’ve got the source image in your digital camera or on paper? — The hard way is to mess with tricky conversion tools built…
- CRC .NET Control - a native .NET component for fast CRC calculation — Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) calculations are used by the majority of developers to validate the integrity of files and binary streams, which makes them an important part of applications working with multiple input and output files. Despite the great number of available CRC algorithms utilizing various initial polynomials, CRC32 is by far the most popular one. If you are a .NET programmer and want to use a CRC library…
