The three FudgeMsg related projects have been updated. These are mainly testing and bug fixes for Fudge-C and Fudge-Cpp; with additional customisation options (for the generated code) added to SimpleFudgeProto.

More details are available on the respective project and GitHub pages.

Bug fix release for WhizWheel (2011-06-14 19:18:51 vrai)

Version 1.0.4 has been released for WhizWheel; this reverses the increase in the minimum OS version from iOS4.2 to iOS4.3 that was accidentally introduced in version 1.0.3. By restoring the minimum version to iOS4.2 the application can again run on iPhone 3G devices.

SimpleFudgeProto added to site (2011-06-14 18:59:35 vrai)

SimpleFudgeProto is an implementation of a (major) subset of the Fudge Proto specification that targets C++. The idea is to satisfy most of the requirements of Fudge Proto, while producing clean binding code (the C++ target uses FudgeCpp

Like FudgeC and FudgeCpp the project is hosted in a GitHub repository.

Yet another WhizWheel update (2011-04-13 11:45:40 vrai)

WhizWheel version 1.0.3 is now on the iTunes store. Contains a fix for the lack of state saving on shutdown when running on multi-tasking devices.

Version 1.0.1 of WhizWheel is now available on the iTunes store. Adds a couple of minor functionality improvements along with iOS4 support.

Fudge-Cpp added to site (2010-08-16 08:02:03 vrai)

Following on from Fudge-C, Fudge-Cpp is a C++ wrapper around the Fudge-C library. It provides a lightweight, object-oriented implementation of the Fudge message encoding specification.

The Fudge-Cpp project is actually hosted on GitHub, so the project page here is really just a stub. News of version updates and copies of packaged project files will be posted here, but for up to date information the Fudge-Cpp repository should be used.

WhizWheel source code now on GitHub (2010-05-16 18:09:31 vrai)

In preparation for an update and as part of a general move to Git; WhizWheel is now available on GitHub.

Fudge-C added to site (2010-02-25 18:09:08 vrai)

Fudge-C is the C implementation of the Fudge message encoding specification.

The Fudge-C project is actually hosted on GitHub, so the project page here is really just a stub. News of version updates and copies of packaged project files will be posted here, but for up to date information the Fudge-C repository should be used.

GarminTracksToKML released (2009-07-14 11:27:23 vrai)

The initial release of GarminTracksToKML is now available for download. This is a simple Cocoa application that converts GPS tracks, loaded from a GPX file or imported from a Garmin GPS device, in to nicely styled KML. The KML output can then be viewed in applications like Google Earth.

More details are available on the project page.

WhizWheel released (2009-06-15 18:38:15 vrai)

My iPhone pilot's aid WhizWheel is now available for download; in source form from this site and as a free binary from the AppStore. Those with an iPhone Developer's License can download and build the code themselves using the instructions on the project page.

Another RDFParser update (2009-06-11 19:44:47 vrai)

To support the only remaining Freshment feed (the RSS links were removed during the latest redesign), the RDFParser now supports Atom feed files. Files in the new feed format can be used in exactly the same way as the older RSS/RDF files, all the changes to the parser are internal. See the project page for more details.

More photos and an RDFParser update (2009-03-01 13:28:56 vrai)

A couple more photo albums have been added to the site; as well as a change to the album display code that hides all but the five most recent by default. Clicking on the link at the bottom of the album box will toggle between the truncated display and seeing all available albums.

A new RDFParser version has been released. This provides better Unicode support and works around a (fairly major) deficiency in the PHP4 XML parser. More information is available on the project page.

Released torrentinfo 1.0.2 (2009-01-01 16:04:50 vrai)

Another bug fix release for torrentinfo, this time to remove a strange default behaviour bug when "--nocolour" was used. See the project page for more details.

Minor update for BIRT released (2008-11-22 13:28:21 vrai)

As always, the project page contains a more details.

Release BIRT version 2.0.0 (2008-11-11 21:02:13 vrai)

As the original BIRT codebase was showing its age and the Qt3 library on which it was based is approaching end of live, the whole thing has been rewritten to use Qt4.

There are more details on the project page but the new version has a clean UI, more features and is now available as a binary package for OS X and Windows (the source code is still available for Unix/X11 users).

Released torrentinfo 1.0.1 (2008-09-25 19:30:04 vrai)

A minor bug fix release for torrentinfo that allows the script to be run on Windows. See the project page for more details.

Moved to new site (2008-07-28 20:05:46 vrai)

In an attempt to keep everything up to date I've combined my various websites in to one easy to maintain lump of online stuff.

The code used to generate what you're seeing is still new, so don't be surprised if it looks or behaves strangely; this is doubly true if you're using IE as I don't have a Window's machine with which to test.
