I have found a useful implementation of the fig drawing program in Java that is very useful if you want to do simple diagrams for LaTeX documents, but are working in a Windows environment where xfig is not readily available. Just use the Java webstart at here.
fig2dev -L pstex fig42.fig fig42.ps
fig2dev -L pstex_t -p fig42.ps fig42.fig fig42.tex

Some our our build processes are taking longer than they should. Much of this is probably due to including too many references to different files, and not using forward class declarations wherever possible. This is well explained in C++ header file include patterns. If your library design does not take this into account your build process will get slower and slower.

I happened to be looking for a code obfuscator for C++ and came across COBF. It is easy enough to get it working on a single file. However, when you have a large library which exports many symbols from the dll it is difficult to make a script file that can easily take an existing VC++ solution and obfuscate the entire project.

I have just got wordpress installed. It took some help from Ruth - you have to add the user to the database after you have created it, an easy step to forget.
