Thank you I appreciate your concerns.
I understand that you want to guide me to an easier path, but this is just something I need to do. Thank you anyway.

Hi,
I have all of the old NuMega debugging tools but I don't know if I have Magic CV. Are you sure that you need it? The product was just a loader for Microsoft Codeview[^]. I've got dozens of old versions of Codeview. You can get it simply by installing the old 16-bit versions of Visual C++ or masm. I believe you would need the one that was included with Masm 5.1 (which I think was the same version included in Magic CV).
Check and see if Codeview is in this old installer:
Microsoft Macro Assembler 5.1[^]

Randor,
I have the old version(s) of CodeView and SoftICE as well, just not the Magic CV.
There are some old DOS drivers that I have always wanted create and others that I wanted to see how they worked.
Turbo Debugger, has the ability to debug a driver, but CV doesn't. Well I couldn't see it anyway.
But bottom line, I would just prefer to stay in CV, DOS 6.x and Win 3.1 where I have put the hours in to, rather than swapping between TD and CV.
I would really appreciate it if you could some how forward me the Magic CV and Magic CVW if you have it.
My projects may only be interesting to me, and that's ok, It is a bucket list hobby.
Regards,
Craig

Mate,
I would really appreciate it if you could upload the Magic CV to Internet Archive/Winworld or BetaArchive, if you have it.
Or any other old software.
I think it is important to preserve such things, but also there are people like myself, that just enjoy old software.
Kind regards,
Craig

today I played around with toolstripcontainer on windows Form application.
I feel this component is not so useful.
anybody can share some experiences?

I use it, but not via the Visual Studio generated code. I find the restrictions too limiting. Instead, I create a toolstripcontainer and add my toolstrip controls and code.

thanks for concurrence.

the vertical "camera view" type of things shows in my use case, but I used sliding panel to implement it and it is much simpler for me.

I tried it when I was dynamically creating and merging toolbars, but also didn't find it very useful. You can merge toolbars into each other.

Hi All,
Just to let you know the mad fools I work for have got me to run a design review for a mission critical update to an established product. Who, me run a design review? I find it worrying that I am trusted to this extent being a new guy. Mind you I have not suffered from some testing I did for Video Processors that are used in Air Traffic Control. So thats good but...
|
|
|
|
|
|
Hmmm, its March!
|
|
|
|
|
Is this a design review or a code inspection?
|
|
|
|
|
I'm a Hardware guy now, design review of changes to a PCB (FPGA went obselete & the JTAG programming port was removed from the update), which naffed up the auto programming and test system.
|
|
|
|
|
I know very little about hardware design, but doesn't removing a JTAG port make it far more difficult to diagnose or debug the hardware?!

I'd like to learn Rust.
The first thing I want to do is just learn enough to be able to read it. I'm kind of disappointed in its bastardization of the C language family style which makes it harder to absorb. It also seems to have some ... pythonisms? in it.
Still, I hear it's a solid language, but I'd like some good (hopefully free) online tutorials to get my feet wet.
Maybe after that a book, but I'm not there yet necessarily.
Does anyone have anything they recommend? I mean, I can just google, but I don't know what's "good".

Don't you have a horrible bug to fix?! Focus focus.

I'm trying to switch gears actually, because I've been hammering on it for too long.

good idea switching gears it will to you

Their home page[^] has a "Learn" link. You'd think the language's site would do a good job of something like that. I looked at it out of curiosity a while ago. It was certainly interesting, but the recent rant from one of the language designers, about C being a de facto standard, stated that it even took the language designers a while to arrive at various best practices.
I'd be interested in reading your take on it if you get familiar enough to venture some opinions.

I am actually looking at that, but I was chumming the waters here to see if there were any must reads.

Started learning Rust; bought a book, took as Udemy class but, as usual I got side tracked on 20 other things and haven't got back to it.
The last research I did someone was porting Rust to the AVR platform, don't know how that has progressed, but would love to see it.

I originally started with the rust book (https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/README.html) and I found it quite good. This was some time ago, and I see they have a complete rewrite which they recommend now. I'd start there.
