code-generation

I have a tool which dynamically generates .xaml and .xaml.cs files and puts them in the appropriate Visual Studio directory . To add them to the project, I have to then: right-click on that directory choose "add existing item" navigate to the matching directory on the hard drive select the two files that were created click ok Is there a way for me to tell the project to "include all existing items under the project folder on the hard drive"? I do not have any automation for this. Still I follow following for the same requirement. This will avoid few clicking. In solution Explorer highlight

Question: is there a way to make a function object in python using strings? Info: I'm working on a project which i store data in a sqlite3 server backend. nothing to crazy about that. a DAL class is very commonly done through code generation because the code is so incredibly mundane. But that gave me an idea. In python when a attribute is not found, if you define the function " getattr " it will call that before it errors. so the way I figure it, through a parser and a logic tree I could dynamically generate the code I need on its first call, then save the function object as a local attrib.

I have seen examples like the following: $data = array( 'username' => $user->getUsername(), 'userpass' => $user->getPassword(), 'email' => $user->getEmail(), ); However, in practice I have always not left the trailing comma. Am I doing something wrong, or is this just 'another' way of doing it? If I was using a framework would not having the trailing comma affect code generation negatively? I have seen the use of trailing commas in array declarations in other languages (Java, C++) as well, so I assume the reasons for leaving trailing commas are not specific to PHP, but this has piqued my

Is there in the world analogues of JavaBeans or JAXB for PHP? Is it possible to generate PHP classes from XML schema? It's common practice to publish API's as XSD schemas. Java and C# guys can get advantage of this by generating classes right from XSD. Is there same tool for PHP? I'm working now on this issue and going to release the tool as soon as it reaches more-less stable state. Check here http://mikebevz.com/xsd-to-php-tool/ Upd. I've just release first working prototype, it works fine with UBL 2.0 schemas and one simple schema, but more serious testing is on the way. I'd appreciate if

It is possible in plain Java to override a method of a class programmatically at runtime (or even create a new method)? I want to be able to do this even if I don't know the classes at compile time. What I mean exactly by overriding at runtime: abstract class MyClass{ public void myMethod(); } class Overrider extends MyClass{ @Override public void myMethod(){} } class Injector{ public static void myMethod(){ // STATIC !!! // do actual stuff } } // some magic code goes here Overrider altered = doMagic( MyClass.class, Overrider.class, Injector.class); Now, this invocation... altered.myMethod();
