NANY 2011: Techniques, Tributes and Tribulations
timns:
Ok it's just me, but I have a great interest in such things. So would the NANY crew be willing to share:
* Why were the NANY applications coded? (I mean why decide to code this particular app)
* What IDE did you use, if any?
* What language(s) is the application written in?
* Does it rely on any 3rd party libraries / code / graphics?
* Were any clever design principles used?
* Or any really hairy algorithms that you'd like to boast about?
* What was the trickiest part?
* Would you like to make a mention of any other DC members who helped out?
Edit: Actually, we all have an interest in such things, so in lieu of the regular survey maybe the NANY Entrants would like to fill this? Thanks Tims for posting the questions! :Thmbsup:
skwire:
* Why were the NANY applications coded? List Numberer and Ten Timer were made upon request. Snap DB was an app I had written some time ago for my personal use that I decided to flesh out and pretty up for a NANY release.
* What IDE did you use, if any? No IDE per se. I use PSPad (which I have set up much like an IDE).
* What language(s) is the application written in? AutoHotkey
* Does it rely on any 3rd party libraries / code / graphics? A couple. One for form/control resizing and another for the toolbar. Neither are built-in to AHK. The toolbar icons are taken from the Fugue set by Yusuke Kamiyamane
* Were any clever design principles used? Ehhh...a few? Ten Timer is written in such a way that it could easily be "Hundred Timer" with the change of one value. Snap DB uses some pretty in-depth listview manipulations.
* Or any really hairy algorithms that you'd like to boast about? Nope.
* What was the trickiest part? N/A
* Would you like to make a mention of any other DC members who helped out? Mouser, Perry and all the DC members that give feedback.
timns:
* How were the NANY applications coded? For great justice? With tender loving care? I'm not sure what you're asking here.

Yes, sorry typo - I meant "why" as in "why did you decide to do it?" - fixed the original post.
