Only one change in this version:
- fixed a bug where entering file offsets greater than 0xffffffff would result in changing the cursor to the wrong offset (it would wrap back to the beginning of the file).

lfhex - 0.4

C++ | lfhex | Qt

It took me a little while longer to get some of the mundane issues sorted out (like changing from QPL to GPL to apease Qt 4.x licensing restrictions). But here it is!

lfhex on Qt 4

lfhex | Qt

Life has been pretty hectic lately. But I am finally getting around to porting lfhex to Qt 4.0. This is my second 3.x to 4.x port and I have to say that it is a real pain. This one is made more difficult because I am also porting the build system to use qmake. It should be easy, but the source includes Flex/Bison source which only seems remotely supported by qmake.

I expect to finish the port and testing within the week!

Raid Upgrade

Over the last couple years I have gotten hooked on photography. Digital in particular. If you take a ton of pictures eventually you realize you need a workflow and a way of managing the amount of data you are creating.

mod_security + drupal

PHP

I use PHP embedded in my Drupal content. This can cause problems with mod_security ("Internal server error", number 500).

The problem is that Drupal sends Edit content back to the server via the POST method. If your content has <?php> in it then it will probably get flagged as a security error.

If your hosting provider allows .htaccess overides then you can add lines to get arround the default rules. However, the security considerations are considerable. And as I have been recently reminded, I am not a security expert. Therefore instead of giving recomendations, here is the authoritative reference for mod_security.

QTable alternating colors

C++ | Qt

Most modern table widgets are displayed with alternating colors to help visually distinguish between rows.
Qt 4 makes this stoopid simple for you by providing QTableWidget::setAlternatingColors(). However in Qt 3.x you have to roll your own. Read on for discussion and sample implementation.

kccmp - v0.2

C++

I just uploaded a new version of kccmp. It supports building against Qt 3.x or Qt 4.x. Qt 4.x build also requires libboost_regex.
The default build is configured to be Qt 3.x.
