I had a small problem when the API changed slightly from 2.0.39 to 2.0.40 , but with minor tweaking, both modules built and seem to work nicely. I have had no problems with them at all.
I would suggest that you keep it as simple as
possible. I have done things like this before,
and it is not hard.
Try, either by some VB for Applications script within
Powerpoint, or an ActiveX component dragged onto it,
to periodically poll a web application, asking "what do I do next" . The web app can return strings like "slide 1" "slide 2" or "go back"... stuff like that.
The same app would have a page associated with it, with form controls used to set the current command.
Example:
Browser displays the control page generated by the webapp, including the button "next slide".
User hits the button, sending the form back to the web app. The "next slide" command is stored.
The VB script, or ActiveX component fetches the "next slide" command.
The script tells PowerPoint to turn the page.
This should fit in to your desire to do the thing in Java, since the web app could easily be a servlet. In addition, the server could be on the same machine that is displaying the slides.
One benefit of this is that creating your own GUI would be unnecessary. Even better, no code is necessary for the Zaurus! Just use the Opera browser, and you're done!.
This would be enough for me , as an alternative
to booting directly from the USB. Does anyone
know if this is easier, or even possible? It
would -seem- to be easier, since the USB driver
and fs could be modloaded instead of needing to
be statically linked.
This would be a more profitable, practical short
term goal. Doing this type of math, with as much
parallelism as possible, and on a typical machine, would
show immediate speed improvements.
If this were on the everyday common PC, it would improve rendering performance awesomely.
82.845 iis an -estimate- of a real number

Since there is no exact floating representation of 82.845, the internal double- or
single-precision float is probably storing it as something like 82.844999998... or some other (82.845 + or - a small epsilon value).
Don't you remember your CSCI 101 prof tell you to never trust '=' when it comes to floating point numbers? Yet in your argument, you start off by assuming that the number is exactly equal to 82.845. QED.;-)
I have seen it more common recently for people to use Slashdot as a vehicle for self-publishing (which is the actual Russian definition of 'samizdat', by the way, no connotation implied). The usual quote is: "I posted my {article/white paper/dissertation/legal brief} here, what do people think about it?" Thus advertised, it begins generating web hits. Don't first-person posts lose a little bit of objectivity? I'm not being disdainful, just wondering.
I do agree with the idea, though, that all students should have ready access to the data world. I hate to see such a potent tool of empowerment not being available to the disadvantaged.
First with the IPC "diskless workstation", then with
the standalone X server, Sun did this a long
time ago. Just because it is news to YOU
doesnt mean it is news.
Conflicts sometimes occur also at 902 to 928 megahertz, used by older cordless phones and some military radar. Ricochet Networks Inc. plans to launch a wireless service in major cities using that range as well.
I think the author needs to get in touch with the times!;-)
Just like airlines overbooking
their flights to maximize resource
utilization, the broadband companies
are selling more capacity than they
actually have. They are betting that
statistically, usage in general will
be low.
This is like "express" dry cleaning.
You can ask for your stuff to be ready
by the next day, and they will do it.
But you must ask, because they can't
do it for everybody.
This is also like Craftsman hand tools.
If one ever breaks or ever voids it warranty,
forever, you can bring it back for a
free replacement. Of course, few people
actually do it. Imagine how much the things
would cost if everyone did!
The broadband providers might need to readjust
their numbers pricing, but they should
definitely keep their fixed pricing model,
and NOT return to the Bad Old Days.
Our old ISP did that. I didn't notice
for months, until I saw an old posting
of mine on Deja News. You know what?
I didn't care.
But think about it logically. You
may read USENET postings from anywhere
on the Net, but you are posting
from their server. In this sense, the
tagging of the Organization line with
their information seems quite proper.
Maybe to qualify for your own Organization
tag, you need to run your own qualified
NNTP server.
And then there is a really damn good
reason for doing this. Putting their information on that header also correctly indicates the
source of the posting, so it is a
valuable tool for tracing a culprit
of USENET spam, a task for which I would
gladly grant the ISP's the use of that
silly header.
Relatively virus-proof, and with all of
the functionality you need,
this is an excellent mail agent for most people.
Use this, and laugh at your wretched virus-ridden coworkers!
Especially nice on Linux!
The spellchecker it not integrated yet,
but it will be added right after the 1.0 release.
It's not clear if the article is a complete description of the problem, but what they mention is WSDL and extensions to SOAP, not the whole family.
As far as WSDL is concerned, have you ever seen it? It's the most confusing, ill-designed, vague document on the planet. Many people have mentioned that XMI (XML Metadata Interchange) is far more suited to description of software objects, and would be far better for publishing/discovering web services. It's the format for UML, after all. It's here.
As far as SOAP extensions are concerned, any programmer that has needed to distribute software knows that you should always adhere to the core standards when designing your application. The use of any extension, or any veering too far to the left or right, will make your application unportable.
So let them have their members-only club, with a membership of 2.
Just a typical opinion from some guy that has been in his niche so long he thinks that it is the whole world.
The best feature of OS software is its ability to be debugged to such a degree that it is far more stable than a commercial product. Should we break its back for the mere purpose of making a security drone's job easier?
The world is not responsible for providing a soft, pink, warm existence for everyone. There is a point that, when reached, demands that everyone stand up for themselves.
If you believe in "I am my brother's keeper," (as I do) then that is good. But such caring should be freely given, not required.
Now that he's seen and accessed the stuff, the Cat is out of the Bag, and he's not responsible for anything he does with his knowledge, data, documentation, software, etc.
Maybe Apple should sign up Mr Developer Sr. just in case.
Yeah, I think that Java could keep up just fine with any game or collaborative logic. If the rendering is offloaded to other software and hardware, the "under-the-hood" stuff is relieved of a lot of performance issues.

Hope this helps.
So even if the browser is borrowing a moniker, would it not properly be spelled MOjira?

Anyone have any experience with this?
That looks more like temporal compression of multiple frames of video, NOT JPEG, which is only for still frames. Maybe the lawyers are confused?

Just kidding.
So the rounding function is probably correct.

It has the same lack of quality in artwork and animation that Hanna-Barbera has here in the states.
The first words of Heretic II seem prophetic.
I agree with the original poster. Porting the
player to Qtopia would allow a growing number of
devices to play Flash animations. One size fits all.
