Keyword of the day: ‘Editors’. I was initially going to dedicate this solely to ‘vim’, but given the fact that it is sometimes helpful to have some ‘magic’ (but slow) capabilities when navigating Java sources, I’m including Eclipse links just for a refresher:

Ended up building GCC-4.9 to build python-2.7 to then use both to build LLVM-3.

Today’s topic is about ‘Advice’. Plenty of them out there on the Internets, and that’s one thing that you can get for free, solicited or otherwise.

Historically, C does not allow the size of an array to be declared at runtime.

This week’s links are all to do with signals. What are signals, and why are they doing in my JVM?

Some homework for me on how best to incorporate Google Tests to unit test my own libraries without bringing in the whole JVM as a dependency.

Firstly, use the magic pragma __declspec(dllexport). But this will cause compiler header mismatches between the header and the source files, unless you mangle both of them.
