I’ve been told there is UML, so i’m here

Even if I’m someone who haven’t a lot of experience in the software industry, I think companies in this sector and especially which develops object-oriented applications don’t use designing tools before they start to develop their programs. (I didn’t say they do not because I can be thinking wrong). Generally, one of the question which [...]

How to Add an SVN External Library To Another SVN Code Repository

Another self reminder (memo!) for the Subversion. Let’s say that you got two different code bases that are dependent to each other. What you need is to version them differently but you also want to development to work as smooth as possible using the cutting edge version (saying trunk). What you need is to define [...]

After the Free Software and Linux Days

Well, it’s been a great two days for me in the Free Software and Linux Days at Bilgi University. There was lots of great talks around (which I have given two:).

Drupal Sandbox Project: KMVC

About Large And Complex Software

It’s been a while from the last post as usual. This time I’m back about a topic we have discussed in the classroom with the instructor about Large and Complex Software. He said that you should design, write UMLs, create comment blocks (70% comments and 30% code) and write documentation for complex software. I opposed [...]
