Election in Iraq succeeded and this is a Good Thing.

It was a truely great day for Iraqi people. The day the history was being made.

Win32 GUI Generics library rocks!

If you haven't seen this library from John Torjo, you definitely ought to. It represents the Win32 GUI programming at its best. The template stuff is used a lot. And the result is a powerful yet easy to use and understand library.

Here are a couple of links: the library, articles. Also check John's articles in the CUJ. They explain quite a few things of the library design.

(PS: I just understood how the library handles event binding internally. It made me think good about myself :). It's nothing difficult, but kind of indirect.)

C/C++ User Journal content is now available online

What a surprise! If you noticed the CUJ site has changed. And this is a good change. Now you can log in and access all articles of the journal online. I've been waiting for this feature for a long long time. You need to be a subscriber to use this feature. I am and I've created my online account today, because I needed to access one article published two years back. Couple of minutes spent on filling a registration form, and here you go I got it.

The other thing is that it comes with access to two other journals: DDJ and Perl Journal. For free, if you are already subscribed to CUJ. And I thought it couldn't get any better!
