SDN (Software Defined Network) on Linux. Develop for fun
Ivan
I am lost it 😂 RTFM 😭
No, it's okay, it's a small notice among the wall of text in the manual, easy to slip past one's attention. Glad to be helpful anyway👌

nice! Which stage are you at? I found proper AST parsing to be the hardest part. People often complain about the code generation, but if you got the AST know in which oder to evaluate everything the asm (if you only write it for one platform) is not too hard.... but I gave up on mine. Leaving it borderline unusable. it can do simple mathematics and basic system calls though.

okay, I have no clue about these :) What is that about? is it like a "virtual networking hardware" kind of thing?

Oooh, no virtual hardware) Kernel level + userspace solutions

SDN actual for cloud computing, virual networks, vps/dedicated servers rent)

I see. I'm very much a noob when it comes to cloud stuff. I can maybe use docker but that's about it. Tbh. i also don't like it much. I rather have my own Server I can manage.

Paying somebody else and then hoping to not get 50k usd fine one day is much better

yep, not only that but its often that you have to adjust to their infrastructure. And thats one of the main reasons I also don't like Qt. Any library I use should not force it's design on my application. In the same way no hosting provider should force me to completely rewrite my CI/CD piepeline or use their proprietary tools. I like to be able to switch things in the future if one ends up not working out.

Docker is solution for application execution, less server administration by owner hands. It is for bussinnes with bussinnes destinations, not for admins and developers))))

I mean that is why I prefer C++ over Rust also. It's an open standard with competing compilers and tooling. Rust has more sane defaults and more uniform tooling. However, If the Rust foundation F... up or takes a wrong turn... well it's done. I see much less risk of that happening in C++

Can container/pod networking be considered as SDN?
Mikhail

Yes, container networking is one of SDN usages)
Mikhail
Not only containers in the world)

Do you guys happen to write GUI Applications? If so: what is your go to GUI framework. I have been using ImGUI a lot lately.
Dima
imgui rocks
Dima
4k sucks but it will do anyway, dear imgui is love
Ivan
Vlad
Vlad
Anyways I don't make gui's unless it's debug related or I get paid
Vlad
And if I get paid I don't care really. I would code gui in winapi and assembly if they have the budget for it
Vlad
(they won't)
DaviChan

winapi actually isnt thaaat bad. But its not cross platform ofc.
Vlad
Desktop is dead

Aka 'put chromium into everything'?
Aka kotlin is amazing. Dart is pretty good too. C++ and Qt are decent

Just compiling and dealing with android sdk is already vomit inducing

Don't get me started on apple devices
DaviChan
yep
DaviChan
i just wont provide iOS builds tbh.

Adroid NDK + imgui... is my idea 💁♂ for mobile builds
DaviChan
I might give Nuklear another try. Its even lighter. But i think it requires a wrapper for a nicer api and layouting 🤔
Vlad

If you plan on doing something beyond basic imgui components, or even god forbid style them how you'd like you should reconsider
Vlad
Immidiate mode libs are fun and games until you want to do something specific
Vlad
Then it might even be easier to code it manually in opengl
Vlad
At that rate
DaviChan

specific like what exactly?🤔
DaviChan
ah yes I see
DaviChan
and yes many people write it directly in opengl / vulkan from what I have seen or Glsl
DaviChan
for now i was able to avoid it
Vlad
If you want debug menus/simple editor imgui is fine
Vlad
For everything else not so much
Vlad
Although I have seen chiptune tracker in imgui made with basic components
Vlad
Good shit
DaviChan
If you want debug menus/simple editor imgui is fine
it can handle quite complex layouts.
Also it can look very clean and polished. Honestly i would rather cut down on some widgets than use Qt.
But i have also seen some other cool libraries I still need to try.
like microui or sth. I have stared them for later lookup.
FLTK also seems cool wasn't it so ugly XD
DaviChan
there is also raygui now, which seems cool 🤔
DaviChan
think the trend is either web technology or immediate mode GUIs. The retained mode UIs seem to become less and less popular

hi, what's the best way to implement a generic event handler for a queue?
I want to do something like:
if (event code == X)
game.move()
sound.playStepSound()
...
So when one event happens, all the systems that care about it get triggered.
I've read some articles that suggest using callbacks.
Do I really need to complicate things with callbacks, or is there a simpler way to do this?
It's for a game with client-server architecture and a main event queue.

I actually have a ton of fun making my own widgets in Nuklear .
B
It's much more straight forward to do stuff in immediate mode .
Vlad
Funny enough
Vlad
You just put a vector of std::function in there, and call all of them

You need to be an admin to do this.

Guys … CLion or VScode which is better
Pavel
Guys … CLion or VScode which is better
CLion is C++ centered IDE, VScode is an extendable code editor.
If your primary work with C++, I would suggest CLion over VScode.
If you work with many things and don't like to switch between tools, you can try to configure VSC to work with C++.
