A couple of weekends ago I decided to borrow a friend’s Mac and learn how to do some iPhone development. The result of that weekend’s work was a small puzzle game.
I have been working for the past few weeks on ChaiDraw. ChaiDraw is an application that’s both meant as an educational toy and as a showcase for how to effectively use ChaiScript in your application.
ChaiScript is a trivially easy to use scripting language designed for integration with C++. I have been working on it with Jon for the past several months now, and we have reached the point of doing performance optimizations and minor bug fixes.
Jon and I released the first release of ChaiScript earlier today. ChaiScript is designed to make it trivially easy to use scripting in your C++ application and to expose your C++ to the scripting system.
I often mention books that I use as resources, but rarely websites. It seems, on average, that online C++ resources are lacking. However, there are a few that I have found that provide quite valuable insight.
colorgcc is an awesome little tool for colorizing the output of gcc and g++, making compiler errors and warnings much easier to spot.
By default, all views and stored routines in MySQL run with the privileges of the definer, not the invoker. This is equivalent to the setuid bit in Unix. In the case where you need to provide execute permissions to stored routines (via EXECUTE) to a read-only user, it is possible to inadvertantly give your read-only user the ability to modify data. If the user has access to a stored routine that modifies data, then the user will be able to modify data.
