  • Adapting MSP to Microsoft C++ ©James T. Smith, 1999 1. Introduction A. General Comments I. Purpose
    Adapting MSP to Microsoft C++ ©James T. Smith, 1999 1. Introduction a. General comments i. Purpose (1) MSP was developed in a PC environment with the original version of Borland C++, then adapted in several stages to Version 5.0, the standard for this book. Many readers, however, prefer to or must use a different compiler. The environment most frequently mentioned that is somewhat close to the book’s is Microsoft’s. This file describes my adaptation of MSP as a suite of Microsoft Visual C++ Win32 Console Applications. (2) It’s an adaptation guide, not a completed product. Most MSP features described in this book work under the adaptation, but it has not been used for further development. With it, you can see how these features work in your Microsoft environment. To use it for a major project, however, you’ll probably want to select only the appropriate MSP modules. You’ll need to test the adaptation much more thoroughly, and probably add minor cor- rections as needed by your specific application. ii. Major differences (1) Microsoft’s complex mathematics module is implemented with templates. That adds more levels of implicit conversions for the compiler to consider when resolving overloaded function declarations. Many more ambiguities would result, and some methods MSP uses to resolve them would no longer work. This would cause so many changes that you’d lose sight of the rest. So the adaptation contains a completely rewritten complex module. (2) Microsoft handles hardware faults, such as overflow detected by the floating-point processor, by throwing“structured exceptions”.

    Development of cross-platform problem-oriented systems using specifications of database applications ? Alexei Hmelnov1;2[0000−0002−0125−1130] and Evgeny Fereferov1;2[0000−0002−7316−444X] 1 Matrosov Institute for System Dynamics and Control Theory of Siberian Branch of Russian Academy of Sciences, 134 Lermontov st. Irkutsk, Russia [email protected] http://idstu.irk.ru 2 Institute of Mathematics, Economics and Informatics, Irkutsk State University, Gagarin Blvd. 20, Irkutsk, Russia Abstract. We consider the approach to development of AIS (automated information system) using declarative specifications of database applica- tions (SDA). The specifications of database applications contain all the information about database structure, which is required to build a typical AIS. The information is represented in its pure form, so the specifications are rather concise. The AIS'es are implemented using general algorithms, which are directed by the specifications. We have developed algorithms for such tasks as: user interface generation, query building, report gener- ation, GIS interaction. Using the specifications of database applications and the algorithms the software system GeoARM was implemented. The technology considered was well-tried by use of the system GeoARM for development of several dozens of true-life AIS for different purposes. In this article we'll describe the approach, that we use for creation of several versions of the GeoARM engine, which use different data access libraries, from the common source code base. The resulting versions of the GeoARM engine allow us to create problem-oriented AIS'es for all the supported platforms from the single SDA. Keywords: Specifications of database applications · automated infor- mation systems · rapid application development · data access technology · source code structuring.

  • Appendix 1 the Borland Pascal Package
    Section 1. Installation 555 Appendix 1 The Borland Pascal Package Section 1. Installation When you open your carton of Borland Pascal, you may be frightened by the tens of kilos of books and mountain of disks. This Appendix will get you started on installation and use of the system to write your Pascal programs. Even if you have already installed Borland Pascal and are using it, you may find some useful tips here, so please thumb through these pages. (There is much useful information in the Borland Pascal User's Guide, which is in your package.) For starters, your computer should have a goodly chunk of free disk space in one hard disk partition. If you install the complete Borland Pascal system, that will take about 30M. The programs with this book will fill about 2M, and when you start writing programs, who knows? Before you start installation, decide which partition to use, and note how much free disk space is available. Don't push a partition to its absolute limit. Start the "Install" program by inserting Disk 1 into the A: drive and typing A:INSTALL <Enter> (By the time this book appears you will probably be able to acquire BP on CD­ ROM and install it that way.) The "Install" program gives you lots of options, and explains what it is doing as it runs. If you have adequate disk space, the easiest course is to install everything. If you want to install only what you need for using this book, when the "Install" program prompts you for what to install/omit, you can omit the Windows version, the Assembler, the Profiler, the Debugger, the Turbo Vision package, and the On-line compilers.

  • An Overview of the Usage of Default Passwords (Extended Version)
    An Overview of the Usage of Default Passwords (extended version) Brandon Knieriem, Xiaolu Zhang, Philip Levine, Frank Breitinger, and Ibrahim Baggili Cyber Forensics Research and Education Group (UNHcFREG) Tagliatela College of Engineering University of New Haven, West Haven CT, 06516, United States fbknie1, [email protected],fXZhang, FBreitinger, [email protected] Summary. The recent Mirai botnet attack demonstrated the danger of using default passwords and showed it is still a major problem in 2017. In this study we investigated several common applications and their pass- word policies. Specifically, we analyzed if these applications: (1) have default passwords or (2) allow the user to set a weak password (i.e., they do not properly enforce a password policy). In order to understand the developer decision to implement default passwords, we raised this question on many online platforms or contacted professionals. Default passwords are still a significant problem. 61% of applications inspected initially used a default or blank password. When changing the password, 58% allowed a blank password, 35% allowed a weak password of 1 char- acter. Key words: Default passwords, applications, usage, security 1 Introduction Security is often disregarded or perceived as optional to the average consumer which can be a drawback. For instance, in October 2016 a large section of the In- ternet came under attack. This attack was perpetuated by approximately 100,000 Internet of Things (IoT) appliances, refrigerators, and microwaves which were compromised and formed the Mirai botnet. Targets of this attack included Twit- ter, reddit and The New York Times all of which shut down for hours.

  • Ibsurgeon Interbase/Firebird Database Information Tool
    IBSurgeon Free Tools: User Guide © IBSurgeon, 2015, www.ib-aid.com IBSurgeon Free Tools: User Guide IBSurgeon Free Tools is a set of 3 tools for Firebird and InterBase administrators and developers, designed to facilitate several typical tasks: 1) measure response time of specific SQL query to find time when query runs slower than usual (“Response Checker”), 2) view how much data, indices, blobs, etc, are stored in your Firebird or InterBase database (“DBInfo”) 3) investigate Firebird log for errors and warnings, (“Log Viewer”) These tools are simple to use, below you can find their short overview and frequently asked questions. IBSurgeon Response Checker 1. Why do you need Response Checker? If you are trying to improve Firebird database performance, the first thing you need to define is criteria of performance optimization. And, Firebird database performance has such criteria: Average response time Maximum response time Response time should be measured with your real-world application and with your production database (or in test environment which simulates production close enough). There is no reason to measure average response time out of the scope of your real application, until you want some abstract «optimization» - or you are using test environment which is proven to be very close or even identical to your production database. Response time is what your end users will refer as «slow», «very slow» or «good enough» (end users never say that your software is «fast»). How to measure the average and maximum response times in real-world production environments running Firebird? For the basic response time measurement you can use IBSurgeon Response Checker.
