Hi all,
I am writing some winform and asp.net applications.
is there a standard GUI convention provided by Microsoft (or maybe
someone else) to design application? (to design a windows-like
application).
For example:
- the menu bar should be on the top
- The first item in the menu should be "File", the last one should be
"Help"
- you should display the OK button first, then the CANCEL button. So =>
OK CANCEL rather than CANCEL OK
- The OK , CANCEL etc buttons should be displayed on the bottom of a
form
- when you update a record, you should always display a message box to
confirm...
- etc etc
I really don't know if this kind of convention exists.
I will really appreciate any help.

A lot has been said in this newsgroup regarding the "evil" set/get
accessor methods. Arthur Riel, (of Vanguard Training), in his class,
"Heuristis for O-O Analysis & Design", says that there is almost never
an excuse for accessor methods. Personally, I do not go that far. I
do feel that they serve a useful purpose (albeit in a limited manner).
Personally I prefer dropping the "set" and "get" prefixes from the
method names altogether. ...

I just realized that the C# convention for uses braces is to put the
opening brace immediately after the first line that defines the block

Why is that? Do a lot of people do this? It seems like putting braces on
separate lines is much nicer and easier to read. In the book I'm

Disclaimer: before I might trigger your "let's start a holy war!" button,
I'd like to say I'm not intended to; I just post this message to get some
input and not to promote "Yet Another Naming Convention". It's a bit of a
long post, but I've spent the past few days on perfecting this, finally came
to the conclusion that maybe I went a bit overboard with it, almost willing
to just say "the @#$ with it" but I didn't want to let it...

I was just wondering what naming convention most of you use for class
variables.
Underscore, "m_" prefix, camel case, capitalized, etc?
Has one style emerged as the most popular?
Thanks for any comments.

Is it common practise to begin the name of form classes with "frm" (e.g.,
frmOneForm, frmAnotherForm).
Or is that generally considered an outdated convention?
If not "frm" what is a common or recommended practise?
Thanks.

I know it's popular and very handy, but I'm curious if there are purists
out there who think that using something like:
for x in range(10):
#do something 10 times
is unPythonic. The reason I ask is because the structure of the for loop
seems to be for iterating through a sequence. It seems somewhat
artificial to use the for loop to do something a certain number of
times, like above.

VC has a __cdecl specifier which allows functions and methods to
be called with varying parameter count.
(I understand this is the default for functions in general but in VC,
instances use another convention unless they have an ellipsis
argument.)
I can force GCC and other compilers to use such a convention by
declaring all methods with an ellipsis, but I'd rather not clutter my
method definitions with these.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
