To the topXpost and QtHeaders Update
August 20th, 2010
Yesterday I released a new Xpost version. But already today I am releasing another one, which also includes one new feature beneath bug fixes. The plugin contains now another small plugin which can be activated in the target blogs. It adds a widget displaying whether a post was crossposted. However this will only work with new posts. Old ones will show up as “not crossposted”.
Moreover, I updated my QtHeaders plugin for Eclipse to the recent Qt version 4.6.3. The plugin is like Xpost hosted at gitorious.org, now.
Meta Programming
May 17th, 2009
The programming language C includes a so called preprocessor. With this you can make (halfway complex) replacements in the code before it gets compiled. A short while ago I asked myself what would happen if you continue this principle, so that you can do replacements in the preprocessor code and in the code for these replacements also and so on. You may think of it as a king selfreferencing programming language, that is possible to do any number of replacement cycles in the source code before the compilation.
This is a somewhat fascinating thougt to me. Anyways, there are probably only a few very special cases in which this will be of any use. Even then you might need only two or three replacement cycles. Moreover, every thing else might get to complex to understand.
