ELF Specification 1.2 is only for 32 bits

I am writing a java library to manipulate 64 bits ELF, so i read ELF specification 1.2 , but one big mistake i took is : this specification is only for 32 bits, and the 64 bits one introduce new data types. So I was trying to guess out what data types it is using […]
Bash script to create a file with increment bytes

Assembler dev meeting #11

sync-ed up Jenny coding skill to all of us. Jenny now clearing all useless code, rename variables to a more meaningful name. Our next job is to encode all instructions together, and for me, create an ELF library to output ELF format object code. Here is our tuned assembler grammar https://gitlab.com/quantr/toolchain/Assembler/blob/master/src/main/java/hk/quantr/assembler/antlr/AssemblerParser.g4
netbeans quick outline better support Antlr

Assembler dev meeting #10

As usual, #10 meeting was hold in CityU. We getting more familiar with Intel basic instruction set translating. Here is the actions list for next week: Zero padding, cut of pad "0" Jenny consolidate your code into well format, let us understand and give us tutorial next sat morning Desmond: nasm in linux example, able […]
Assembler Dev Meeting #9 2019/08/16

Meeting #9come up with these fixes: Kelvin fix 66 67 REX Prefix Ending bytes (displacement) Desmond fix IMM* > IMM https://gitlab.com/quantr/toolchain/Assembler/issues/28
Generic E-Form system design

Lots of customers has implemented e-form using different technologies such as Nintex, SPFX, Microsoft Flow. We are going to design a generic E-Form system for them, providing a centralize mechanism for administrators to add/remove eform, user management, log management and etc...
Wheatstone bridge in multisim

Simulation is correct
Why Multisim sometime is 100% accurate than calculation, sometimes is not

This exercise is 100% same as calculation But below one is not 100% same as calculation, it use just same components: VC + Resistors. Is multisim using brute force to guess out the voltage and current values?
Antlr所有Embed action都會跑在Listener前面

意思是會先跑光所有embed action,然後才會跑listener裏面的function
Assembler Dev meeting #6, #7 and #8

Desmond typed all basic instructions to grammar. We found some translation are wrong. I fixed the full test so can test all translated instructions.
A nice book about how computer hardware works

I thought Java swing is pixel graphic

In last 20 years, I thought Java swing is pixel graphic, but i found out it is vector. I tried to draw a 1 pixel line with 45 degrees, and when i zoom out, i proved it is not pixel base. So all drawLine, drawRect function calls are vector graphic.
Calling Docusign Restful API with Bearer

In DocuSign, Bearer is same as access token, just two different names. It can be generated by this web https://developers.docusign.com/oauth-token-generator , make sure you have an sandbox account.
Net netbeans-antlr logo

Getting familiar with Adobe illustrator. For drawing GUI/logo from scatch, ai is better than photoshop. But photoshop is still good to draw on top of somebody designs.
Netbeans-antlr 2.5 plugin architecture diagram

Sequential logic, nice practice

C compiler pre-research preparation

Antlr C11 grammar is highly match with the C11 language specification, which is a very good news to us. https://github.com/antlr/grammars-v4/blob/master/c/C.g4
THE 6TH ASSEMBLER DEV MEETING

Peter updated netbeans-antlr plugin, increase our productivity: Jenny finished the REX.W translate, she keeps translating other instructions to see if our current coding facilities enough or not. Desmond is adding all the rest of the intel instructions to the grammar file, still need sometimes.

完全痴線 - JTextComponent個setCaretPosition完來係錯

如果你放"abc\ndef"落JTextComponent, 佢會變Q左"abc\r\ndef", 連帶影響埋setCaretPosition()會錯位,補救方法如下: 經過修正之後, 我個netbeans outline plugin回復正常了
The 5th Assembler dev meeting

Jenny has done SIB table, Kelvin is working on 66h 67h, Desmond is adding rest of the instructions. Thanks for Professor Ray visiting us and giving us advice.
x86 disassembler預研成功

x86 disassemble預研成功,感謝Rod Pemberton朋友在alt.lang.asm上面的幫忙,原來Intel instruction雖然係CISC但可以在未decode所有Byte之前把Instruction切割出來。還有,切割比我想像人來得簡單。我現在的問題就是,RISC的所謂固定長度指令好像不是傳說中所說的巨大優勢。
一本由讀computer science嘅人所寫嘅哲學書

我而家總結一下書中所帶出的哲學問題,所有讀computer science嘅人都應該花時間思考一下: 神。人。機械人。三者之關係 機械人的超限作用 人好明顯就是當機械人係奴隸 機械人之自我認同,自我意識 克隆人是機械人? 人是機械人?
Netbeans 11.0終於有plugin嘅library了

Netbeans自從貢獻左俾apache, maven central好耐無update, 由netbeans 9到netbeans 10都無library可用,以至8.1的plugin無從升級至netbeans 11. 今日check多次終於見到有11.0嘅lib了 https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.netbeans.api/org-netbeans-api-annotations-common
4th Assembler dev meeting

We heading into Antlr Grammar, got one problem : We don't know how anltr prioritise parse rules, so next week will be our study week. A new friend https://www.facebook.com/waiwailk visited us in meetup too.

基本上掌握到JVM生成byte code

基本上掌握到JVM生成byte code,初步了解jvm的指令,能夠徒手用apache bcel生成class文件. 但感覺上jvm比.net core的vm重,所以先看看CLR才作最後決定。 題外話:基於jvm的語言除了java之外,沒一隻能夠有大的成功。

一本唔錯的vSphere SDK書

書中是6.0,雖然和6.7有點距離,但不失為一個入門書。 最重的是有一個學習規劃。 以下是一個vSphere programmer應該要懂的topic: managing inventory managing host systems managing virtual machines, snapshots, and vmotion managing clusters and resource pools managing networks managing storage and datastores event and alarms performance monitoring task and scheduled task user and license administration extending VI client scrioting the VI sdk with jython, perl and powershell 必需把以上topic用sdk寫一次!!!

佛教超心理學

禪定引發超自然能力,而最詮譯禪定的就是華人所寫的"釋禪波羅密"和"摩訶止觀",古印度禪定專用書暫時沒發現所以沒法搜獵。係所有心力專注一處嘅時侯思想不再被習氣所影響之下所顯示的那一個真正嘅我,是我還沒遇見的。 究竟是佛教教集體痴Q左線?定係真係有那一個境界,非常想知!

SharePoint "Menu Item Custom Action" - Host VS App

If you are trying to add an menu to SharePoint Online, make sure you chosee "Host Web" instead of "App Web". If you chose wrongly, there is no way to convert it back in Visual Studio. You have to manually edit MenuItemCustomAction1\SharePointProjectItem.spdata , see below. You have to change the line from the top one […]
