Full Planet Source Code Jumbo Resource CDs

[wqweto]

The guys at Internet Archive have done wonderful job here: https://archive.org/details/PSC-JUMBO_RESOURCE_CDS

Beware that these might possibly contain malware (though highly unlikely), no matter that these CDs contain only awarded best of the month submissions to PSC.

Thanks for the share I check them out latter, they were the days the good old VB Sites were you can easy find what your looking for and loads and loads of snipplets all in one place. pitty now I was looking the other night and most sites I knew are long shame. I was thinking of starting my own little snipplets project with weekly updates just for tips of code but it hard to find people willing to submit there code. but I may start something my self and all some tips and tricks that I found years ago. I remmber going to computer fairs and buying Visual Basic cds packed with source code, I iso all the cds there on a USB stick in my room someone may have to dig it out.

o I also came accross this to

You can extract and publish some excellent modules, source codes and controls here.
It's like looking for a CPU or a graphics card in a pile of junk. There may even be gold. Diamond.

Of course, many of the source code is very good.
It's just that it's too difficult to test one by one.If open a such website 20 years ago, next every source code has tens of thousands of people to download.
Everyone will automatically comment on whether the source code is valuable, the number of downloads, and the number of comments. Percentage of favorable comments.

For example, we are now this website, whether one day its source code will also be open, as well as the download of these source codes and articles.
If ai is used for automatic analysis, the more people reply to each topic, the more valuable it is.After all, this is a purely technical discussion. The more people who need it, the more people who reply.
Can be calculated automatically through some data, take some source code or forum theme articles, more valuable.

Try to collect some of the current source websites for him. Includes data on responses to articles published on each page of the forum. When the time comes, we can realize it completely. A virtual forum. It is static and can not submit information, but it can be queried on the next page. Search.
Mainly, we can view the replies of others on each page of the article.
Now, when we ask him some questions, ai chatgpt answers are always wrong. If we ask him again, he may give us another answer. To put it bluntly, what may be more in line with our needs that he has collected from other gold ingot websites?

So in theory, he also has to analyze how many people responded to the original forum or website article and how many people clicked on the praise.

I've got backups of a number of VB sites .. a few that have since vanished. If someone wants to host them... I've just been posting them or projects from them when people ask about something from a defunct site.

CodeProject isn't VB specific but had tons of good stuff for VB and info generally... it's not looking good right now . Worse, very few urls seem to be on archive.org which is surprising and disappointing for a site that popular... Hopefully someone has that because I don't.

If you can directly convert the source code of VC + + to VB6, then you can also translate them.

It is said that the United States has now asked to stop using VC + + in 2030.Because he used too many pointers to cause all kinds of vulnerabilities and buffer overflows.

But it is based on the message mode, which is close to Vb6.
For example, each Win32 system control has these API operations.The implementation of professional operation is because he is not familiar with this specific usage, of course, this workload is very large, perhaps it is time to completely abandon him.

Web programming is the only way forward.
