Code in .NET 2.0, Build for Java, Run on Linux!



"After 100+ person years and $12 million of direct R&D investment, and the cross-compilation of 4.7 M lines of code from .NET to Java, we're celebrating the release of Grasshopper 2.0. Our plug-in to the Visual Studio® 2005 IDE enables you to produce .NET Web and server applications that run on Linux® & other Java-enabled platforms, without having to rewrite your C# or Visual Basic code. Version 2.0 introduces support for the .NET Framework 2.0, ASP.NET 2.0 controls, role-based security, and C# generics."


Thats what "http://dev.mainsoft.com/" says about their product.

"We all know and love the Microsoft® Visual Studio® IDE, but did you know that you can use it to build server applications that run on Linux®? Discover how you can build applications using the Visual Studio IDE and run them on Java EE enabled platforms, including Linux."

You can find more information on http://dev.mainsoft.com/

I haven't installed this plug-in since I don't need to develop solutions for Linux but when I saw this on Internet thought to share this with you.

Google API v3 with PHP using Blogger service

It was really hard for me to understand how the Google APIs are working at the first point and took few days for me to figure out. But after a successful working prototype it seems very easy. And also when I am searching for a simple example I was unable to find a good one that I can understand. So let me list down step by step what I have done with URLs and as simple as I can. Create a Google app location -  https://code.google.com/apis/console Switch on the "Blogger API v3" Get the latest APIs client library for PHP location -  https://code.google.com/p/google-api-php-client/downloads/list Upload the files to your host location on on localhost Extract the files to folder  named "GoogleClientApi" Create your php file outside of the folder  Copy paste following code into the file and do the changes as needed  By changing the scope and the service object you can access all the services that is given by Google APIs through the PHP API library se

My two cents on new year resolution

What is the plan for the new year ? - need to think on what are we trying achieve during next year 2018 - basically the life goals - may be personal or professional - and also it should be realistic (not something like going to Mars ;)) Why we need a plan for the new year ? - basically a goal without a plan is a DREAM - And also should be able to measure (what you cannot measure, you cannot manage) How to prepare a new Year resolution/plan ? - Leave some buffer time - Make changes during the year (life is changing/evolving) - Plan is only for you (do not share it) - When a milestone is achieved, celebrate - Try to stick to the plan - otherwise no point of planing

Assets and Liabilities as Rich Dad, Poor Dad explains

I was reading "The rich dad poor dad by Robert Kiyosaki" here is a one point that he mentions on that. Basically Asset as he says is little bit different than on books. If something puts money in your pocket it is a asset. And Liabilities are the ones that takes money out of your pocket. OK for example a house or a car may seems like an Asset but it takes money out of you pocket to maintain them. But if you rent them or make them to make money at the end of the day you can convert it to a asset. Basically that what rich people do. They buy assets. Middle class buy liabilities (thinking those are assets) and stuff (a lot of them that not used or that not needed). Lower class buy to consume (basic needs like foods).
