Best scripting language for prototyping large-scale projects -

-

the last time attacked large-scale c/c++/asm project [involving many moving parts having work together], took following approach:

  • built quick prototype in python
  • piece piece, built efficient c version. python c api , boost::python used integrate c code in python skeleton
  • link link, python glue replaced appropriate c or c++ version
  • once python extricated, code base cleaned

there many reasons why not best approach attacking large scale project, let's accept framework now.

python in context predilection. not wed python. want replicate process scripting language

  • powerful -- should able rapidly prototype application
  • flexible -- should able integrate language features custom library
  • light -- should not need legwork integrate c , c++ routines / structs / classes. nicer if process automated :)

what language best?

for lightweight , flexible parts, many go lua (including myself, though experience limited). lua intended embedding, c api best of scripting language know of. it's small and, again, because it's intended embedding, it's extensible.

also, inb4 language flame war, i'm echoing relatively common sentiment lua language type of task.

java - SNMP4J General Variable Binding Error -

i trying use snmp4j snmp bulkget. when ever use snmp4j make call returned responseevent error says "general variable binding error" , data returned equal null. to debug: print out, console, exact oid , version number using in snmp4j. use printed out data snmpwalk on command line. valid results. know sending snmp4j correct pdu correct oid, version number, max repititions, etc. i have used snmp4j , code wrote succesffuly monitor other devices years. don't know different time. leaving me stumped. why "general variable binding error?" causes error? ideas debug? can reproduced? if so, first action should using wireshark or microsoft network monitor capture network packets. my guess agent gives generr response, not surprising, http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1157.txt

Determine if a XmlNode is empty or null in C#? -

-
the following code takes xmlnode data type , populates dataset object xmlnode content. write dataset's content file. public void populatedataset(xmlnode node) { xmlnodereader reader = new xmlnodereader(node); dataset ds = new dataset(); ds.readxml(reader); system.guid guid = system.guid.newguid(); string name = string.format("{0}{1}_{2}.xml", utility.xmloutputpath, utility.xmloutputfilename, guid.tostring()); //need write "node empty" file if xmlnode object empty of null ds.writexml(name, xmlwritemode.ignoreschema); } the problem encountered 1 scenario not write content file. how determine if xmlnode object null or empty? you can check if node parameter null or has innertext or innerxml properties null or empty, when enter method before creating xmlnodereader .
