Open Source Code

My client just asked if I use the open source coding.  Most of my sites are basic HTML sites developed in Dreamweaver.

I'm not sure 100% means that what open source coding.  I looked around the internet but can't seem to understand what it is and if a site based in DW is considered "open source code".

Any help is appreciated.

I see two possible situations here. One possibility is that your client is just as much in the dark on open source as you, and it is just using a word in fashion to make sure that he is dealing with someone who is "with him. On the other hand, it could be that he is not sure whether to trust you.

If this is the first case, you can simply say that the code you use does not come from a closed source, owner. You work to common standards, open.

If it's the latter case, it wants to ensure that commitment, it will not in the end upward with code that no other developer will understand or easily customize if he decides on the part of company with you.

What puts you in a position of weakness is your own lack of understanding of open source - and, certainly, it is not a concept that is easy to describe in a few words. If you had a better understanding of open source (test http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_source), you could ask with confidence for more details on what your customer is interested. It is quite possible he was trying to find out if you're heavily into Drupal, jQuery or one other project open source. Projects open source have a large development community. So, if things do not work, the customer knows that he will probably find someone else for the position. If you write custom code, switch to another developer is more complicated.

  • VMware ESX/ESXi 4.1 OSS Open Source Code

    Hi guys,.

    I'm working on a project by which the customer must ensure the level of testing that a particulat platform began developing in order to gain confidence in the solution.  Historically, this has meant physical systems so the need was only to test the code base, but now they decided to virtualize parts of the infrastructure, like the guy from VMware, I was asked to answer some of these questions.

    The eventual solution will be ESXi 4.1 (embedded and installable).

    I found what appears to be the source of the hypervisor here:

    http://downloads.VMware.com/d/details/esx41_os_s/ZHcqYmRwd2piZHdlZQ==

    As there seems to be no documentation can someone tell me what exactly is the source code?

    Ideally, this will be as close to a full version of the hypervisor released as possible and I will provide testers!

    Thanks for your time,

    Dan

    Yes of course

    Only the well-known standard packages here, are owners.

  • textLayout open source code debug property undefined in flash cs4

    Hi all

    I have downloaded the open source svn 'textLayout framework' and files src folder defined as class path in flash cs4

    When I am trying to publish a player example gives me this error:

    1120: access of undefined property debug.

    CONFIG::Debug {Assert (normalizeStart < = textLength, "damage incorrect length") ;}}

    you have an idea?

    Thank you.

    The workflow being considered is to use a TextLayout.swc compiled in Flash Pro. When we compile the EFA, we give the compiler of the configuration information to determine if we are compiling debug or release CFC. I don't know if this can be done in Flash Pro, so I recommend that you only set the CFC on your way, not the complete source.

  • Attn Lenovo Reps: A2109A kernel source code

    Hello

    On Lenovo's Support site, for the A2109A, as drivers and software, in the category 'software preloaded' there is a file called a2109n_gpl_kernel_570.7z labeled as 'Open Source Code - ZTE A2109A'.   I guess that's the source code for the kernel.

    VMware, as virtually every software development company, incorporates certain open existing in their own proprietary source code. More open source licenses like the popular GNU General Public License (GPL) legally require you must publish the source code modified with your distribution of binary software (often under the same license).

    There is not really much of a practical use for end users, but it may be useful for other developers and software 3rd party development.

  • Delete a source code control RoboHelp project, without opening HR

    Hello

    I use HR 11 and Visual Studio source code control.

    I need to take an archived version of my HR project and open it to the changes that are not in the current project.

    When I unpack my archive, it automatically links to the source code control and downloads the latest version of the project.

    It supersedes the current source code control project and even change the mapping of the source control path must match the project archives.

    So what I need to be able to do, is open my archives project without source code control interface. Is there a file I can edit linking the project to source code control? I can't even open the project in HR because it distracts the mapping of source control.

    Thank you.

    It is fairly easy to do. See Rick's excellent post: October 2004 - ban witchcraft do not forget to remove the CPD file however.

    Kind regards

  • Robo HTML 9 won't open our Source code control project after initial startup.

    We have a project under version control that we use for ever, since 2003 or more and for many versions of HR.  Now that we have upgraded to 9, this project will open the first time under version control and operate normally.  Once you close the project, and the attempt to reopen the start screen, it opens just great, but not in version control.  The files are always set to read-only.  I made this several times and the only way I can work on my project under version control is to act as I open a project from scratch, then overwrite my files the with the files from the server.  It wouldn't be so bad but I'm 3000 miles the server and 13 hops over a slow firewall on the other end.  While this was never a problem in the past, it's a big problem because it takes hours for all files to download and overwrite my files the.

    This only happens with RH9 and Version 3.1 control.  RH8 works without problem.  So, I don't know if it's a starter RH9 problem or a problem of Source control.  Maybe I'll make a similar thread HR.  I'll wait to see if I receive useful tours of it first.

    It's very strange, I RH9 open for several days because I was afraid to close the project for this reason and yesterday I published for the month so heat is less now but today it has opened with no source code control.  If I go to control code Source, the only thing I can choose is updates to the source code control project.  That's how he got into source control after conversion in RH9.

    We have another project that seems to open normally control version, but we can only save in HTML topics.  No responses to this topic after a week.

    Got any ideas?

    I tried the names of different file, different paths, etc.

    Thank you

    DV

    OK, here's a weird one, I used add it to version control icon in the menu bar, he already knew the path so I thought I'm the only person who was edit these files for the last few days so I clicked on add to version control.  He added. I closed and reopeded and still the same files were checked.  Closed, checked in the whole, and then reopened and he works at SourceControl.  Strange that after opening of source control and closing to reopen and tell him to put the project into source control.  Obviously some indicator is not is defined somewhere.  It might help other people having problems opening source control files.

  • Source code jumps around re-opening page?

    This is a common problem with view on the Source Code of Dreamwver CS4?

    In an effort to make the code read nice and neat, as all the world I try to dash and nest my code. For example:

    < div >

    < ul >

    < li > a < /li >

    < li > a < /li >

    < li > a < /li >

    < /ul >

    < / div >

    But, upon registration of a file and then reopen them later, I noticed that in places, the file does not my expected spaced nested provision that that is the code jumps autour on line and I lose my dash spacing neat. For example:

    < div >

    < ul >

    < li > a < /li >

    < li > a < /li >

    < li > a < /li >

    < /ul >

    < / div >

    I tried to set my preferences > code format > tab size 10 to produce a greater indenting that has improved the problem somewhat but not fixed.

    Others must have experienced this frustrating problem.

    Is there anything I can do to solve this problem, set the other preferences to give me complete control over the page?

    Thanks in advance.

  • Where is View Source? How can we consider the source code of a Web site?

    Where is View Source? How can we consider the source code of a Web site?

    View the Source used to access via a drop down menu, but is no longer. Why?

    I use Firefox 24.0.

    1.) get in Firefox.
    2.) open any page you want to view the source code.
    3.) after full opening of the page "right-click" then you can see the source view of the page, click on it to see the Source of the page.
    Thank you.
