Slashdot: The Birth of a FOSS Application

"Brice Burges explains why and how he created a new free software
application, as well as what he learned from the birthing process, in a
story on Linux.com. The story provides first-hand insights into the
frustrations and satisfactions of developers working on free/open source
projects. From the article: 'I'm always disappointed to hear open source
project members say that they had "their developer" modify an aspect of
the program without ever hearing from that developer or seeing any of
the code. This is not progressive.'"

Slashdot: Management 'Scared' by Open Source

"A discussion panel at EclipseCon exposed how managers are freaking out
over open source. Apparently a disconnect exists between managers who
set corporate open source policies and developers supposed to follow them,
but who end up covering their tracks to make it seem like they are not using
open source. Developers, though, end up using open source because of its
ubiquity and not using it 'puts them at a competitive disadvantage because
their competitors are.' And the Lawyers are in a panic."

Digg: Linux, open source software pay off for PayPal

"When Scott Thompson left Visa to take the CTO role at PayPal in 2005, the
Web company's data centre surprised him. "Wait a minute," he recalls saying,
"they run a payment system on Linux?"

"I was pretty familiar with payment systems and global trading systems, but
I just scratched my head when I came here," Thompson says. With his history
of working on IBM mainframes and large Sun Solaris systems, the PayPal
approach to computing seemed alien, especially for a company whose core
mission was dealing with money."

Many here undoubtedly remember NeXT, the revolutionary computer / dev
environment that gave rise to the first Web browser and later became the
foundation of Mac OS X. Étoilé uses the FSF's own implementation of the NeXT
development environment, GNUstep, making this a close technological relative
of OS X. Screenshots and a source tarball are available."

Compile Software from Source Code

"... with the popularity of open-source software, where the source code is
available for one and all to read and enjoy, the final step of compiling the
code into a runnable program is left up to the user. It needs to be compiled
specifically for the type of system it'll run on, and maintaining separate
binaries for Windows XP, Windows Vista, Mac OS X Tiger, Panther, Linux
x86, and all the rest is a bother."

new software: Lotus Symphony.

The new Symphony, based on Open Office, is yet another product to support
Open Document Format (ODF), the ISO standard for universal document
interchange. There are about 135 million Lotus Notes users, and they will
also receive Symphony free. IBM support will be available for a fee. There
are no details yet about platform support, but IBM is supporting Lotus Notes
8 on Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows, so at least those three are likely."

git - Official Objective-C SDK for the Dropbox API v2

"The Official Dropbox Objective-C SDK for integrating with Dropbox API v2
on iOS or macOS."

git - Dropbox: Migrating from API v1

"If your app was originally using an earlier API v1 SDK, including the iOS
Core SDK, the OS X Core SDK, the iOS Sync SDK, or the OS X Sync SDK,
then you can use the v2 SDK to perform a one-time migration of OAuth 1
tokens to OAuth 2.0 tokens, which are used by API v2. That way, when you
migrate your app from the earlier SDK to the new API v2 SDK, users will not
need to reauthenticate with Dropbox after you perform this update."

db - API v1 -> v2 Migration guide

"Migration checklist for developers:

* Check whether you need to migrate your user's access tokens or re-
authenticate with a new permission.
* Familiarize yourself with the new v2 syntax. Read up on the patterns of
v2 endpoints, do a tutorial for an SDK, and test-drive v2 calls with your
own data in the API Explorer.
* Figure out which v1 endpoints your app uses, and look up the equivalent
ones in API v2 using our v1 → v2 mapping table.
* Update your app's code, replacing API v1 calls with API v2 calls.
* If there's functionality missing in v2, update what you can, and support
the rest with a hybrid integration. Also, please file a support ticket with us
about the missing functionality, so we can keep track of feature requests.
* Update the error handling in your app to utilize v2 errors."

example ... To iterate through parameters, the object CwebDict may be
used like this ... Cweb Studio also supports url parameter encoding. To do
so, call the method request->read_content to parse the body... Similar to
iterating through URL parameters, iterating through headers is equally as
simple ... Accessing the body content may be done by calling the function
request->read_content. The content will be accessible with request->content
and request->content_length ... CwebStudio has cJSON integrated into the
library ... if you want to return values from cJSON, you can call the
cweb.response.send_cJSON_cleaning_memory or cweb.response.
send_cJSON to return cjson values ... Returning plain text is simple with
cweb_send_text ... To return rendered HTML, the function
cweb_send_rendered_CTextStack_cleaning_memory may be used. Memory
will be automatically cleaned ... To generate HTML from a file, the
cweb_send_var_html function may be used ... As is done with returning
plain text, memory will be automatically cleaned with cweb_send_
var_html_cleaning_memory ... Files can be directly returned by referencing
the path ... Static files (javascript/css/html) can be referenced and returned
in the static directory ... CWEB_DEBUG will provide useful debugging
information...
