Super-splitting, family law and QT

The Australian government introduced a scheme to split superannuation as part of divorce settlement. And formulae to determine how this should be done.



Makes for some interesting work.

QT just gets better and better

I always found desktop app development using VC++ 6 and MFC a bit... tedious, especially next to many of the alternatives.

Years and years ago I found VB really easy. Years ago I found Delphi easy. In the last 10 years I've mostly been using Java Swing and I feel I can be very productive without much pain as well.

Well, surprisingly QT is a smooth ride. I never really checked it out until recently but I have to say I really like it.




QT Creator just gets better and better.

Showing/Hiding Maximize/Minimize buttons on QMdiSubWindow

The documentation for both the API and an example usage is great, but I thought I'd post this Blog Entry in any case because when you go Googling for a problem solution the more chances of finding the answer the better.



Update: Some code text for copy and pasting

QMdiSubWindow *win = new QMdiSubWindow;
win ->setWidget(child);
win ->setWindowTitle("Black Scholes");

Qt::WindowFlags flags;
flags = Qt::WindowMinimizeButtonHint;
win->setWindowFlags( flags );

Drupal : Another site up and running - Test Drive the Arts

I'm starting to knock out more and more Drupal work. This one in Drupal 6, with the use of Panels2, Views2 and some Custom Module development. I can't take credit for the graphic design. That was done before I came along.
