legacy

My question is quite relevant to something asked before but I need some practical advice. I have "Working effectively with legacy code" in my hands and I 'm using advice from the book as I read it in the project I 'm working on. The project is a C++ application that consists of a few libraries but the major portion of the code is compiled to a single executable. I 'm using googletest for adding unit tests to existing code when I have to touch something. My problem is how can I setup my build process so I can build my unit tests since there are two different executables that need to share code

I have a legacy database that I'm working on getting ActiveRecord to work with. I've run into a problem with join tables. I have the following: class TvShow < ActiveRecord::Base set_table_name "tvshow" set_primary_key "idShow" end class Episode < ActiveRecord::Base set_table_name "episode" set_primary_key "idEpisode" end And then I have a table called tvshowlinkepisode that has 2 fields: idShow, idEpisode So I have 2 tables and a join between them (so a many to many relationship), however the join uses non-standard foreign keys. My first thought was to create a model called TvShowEpisodeLink

I need to connect my db container with my server container. Now I just red about the legacy parameter --link , which works perfect $> docker run -d -P --name rethinkdb1 rethinkdb $> docker run -d --link rethinkdb:db my-server But, if this parameter will be dropped eventually, how would I do something like the above ? The docs says to use the docker network command instead (which is available since Docker 1.9.0 - 2015-11-03) Instead of $> docker run -d -P --name rethinkdb rethinkdb $> docker run -d --link rethinkdb:rethinkdb my-server you will now use $> docker network create --name my-network

How can I change the state of a React component from my old legacy jQuery soup code? I have a component like this: var AComponent = React.createClass({ getInitialState: function() { return { ids: [] } }, render: function() { ... }, onButtonClick: function() { ids.splice(…); // remove the last id } }); When something special happens in the old jQuery soup code, I'd like to push an id to AComponent.state.ids . How can I do that? One "obvious" solution is an anti-pattern; here it is: var componentInstance = AComtonent({}); React.renderComponent(componentInstance, document.getElementById(...)); //

After working on several large web applications, and seeing gigantic style sheets with no clear structure, I'd really love to know if people have found ways to keep their css clean for large and complicated web apps. How do you move from a legacy, mess of css to cleaned up, nicely cascading, DRY stylesheets? The app I'm currently working on has 12000 lines of css. It's grown to this size organically as early on there were no standards or review of the css, the only rule was to make the app match the design. Some of the problems we constantly have: Conflicting styles: one developer adds a

I've been assigned to do some work on a huge Java project, and the influence of several iterations of developers is obvious. There is no standard coding style, formatting, naming conventions or class structure. It's a good day when I come across a class with Javadoc, and unit testing is a happy daydream. So far those of us on the project have been "blending in", adapting to the existing convention of whatever class we're working on, but the time is coming to impose some order and consistency. It's a daunting challenge, and I'm looking for any advice people might have on such a task. Are there

But my CoCreateInstanceFromApp always returns REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG. In desktop applications an error is written into the event log that SideBySide execution fails. But in metro application no such error is written into the event log. I can use the same COM object from a desktop application as registration free over the similar manifest file.
