 Hey everybody, it's Brian and I have not recorded a video in a very long time. I'm hoping that will change It is Wow, what is it January 2nd 2014? That's right all these nice beautiful pictures I couldn't really pick one, but happy new year everybody so What have I been doing? Where have I been? Well, I switched jobs. I Worked at a casino, which if you've ever worked at a casino knows just it devours your soul I spent almost every waking minute doing nothing but work to save my Sanity and my relationship. I changed jobs. I now work for a company called CNSI But with switching jobs comes the new job headache where you work a lot of hours, etc, etc So it's been kind of a rough year So I've been kind of reflecting on my channel and what I want to do and As far as coding goes what I've really been working on is this plug-in service It was my first Kickstarter project the project did not get funding, but you know what it's not really about the money for me So I'm just gonna go ahead and do it anyways I've really spent over a year on this project in 2013 I really just put my nose to the grindstone and I've actually got the website done it looks much better than that and I've got the let me see if I can bring it up here. Yeah, I've got the actual testbed application here and It will talk about more of this in the coming year But I wanted to get back into doing tutorials because well, I kind of miss doing it So this year I want to really focus in on the yee framework for PHP Yee is an acronym stands for yes, it is and I think I've actually made a video where I've said You know, I'm going to do more tutorials, but I really mean it this time now that my life isn't so crazy Also want to get back into doing cute because well, I love cute Cute's undergone quite a bit of change lately They just released version what is it 5.2 and Also during the year it got sold to a company called digia. Nokia actually sold it which I Don't know. I didn't like the direction. Nokia was taking it So I think it was actually a good thing But there's a split where there is the commercial version available by digia and the open source version Available by the cute project work Nine times out of ten. We're going to visit cute project because well open source is just awesome Of course, I say that and you see Windows browser in case you're wondering why I'm on Windows Well, that's why I'm currently patching and if you're on steam and you're a gamer my acronyms root shell Do they call it an acronym anymore? My handle is root shell So you can always find me out there Some things that have gone on in the cute world cute 5.2 introduced some very interesting features They now have official support for iOS so you can actually compile and put your applications on an iPhone and an iPad I believe I haven't tested that yet. He also full support for Android and a whole bunch of other goodies And this year I really want to dig into cute because there's a whole lot of stuff that well, we just haven't learned so Not going to write any code. I was just saying hi and happy New Year's and just letting you guys know where I've been but um Also, I kind of want to start getting into more structured programs like you see these PRI files This is probably a mystery to some of you out there. What do these things do? Well, you can actually well, maybe we will write a little code here You can actually take your project file and then include These PRI files and these PRIs are just project implementation files So you see how where I have a baster That's where the code for this is at a build directory, which is where I'm building the actual code and An include dirt and that's where the actual code is being included. So my actual program is just this Headers and source, but I'm including these PRI files, which are just directories See like here's the message Project and that's the PRI file for it Which just has the include path which just includes the include dirt and blah blah blah I got a little crazy about this, but I wanted to make it so I could easily add Different project implementation files in here. So it's all about encapsulation You know, I want the message section to be different than the plug-in manager section So see how each one has its own headers and sources things like that I mean, we should really talk about these because I get pinged with a lot of questions of you know How do I use headers? How do I include files? How do I do this? How do I do that? And well, there's one of me and about 400 million of you. So there you go. Anyways Happy New Year's Been a long time since I've done a video. I look forward to doing a lot more So if you have any ideas, let me know it's gonna be slow going at first. Like I said, I'm still in the new job mode But I really like this new job. It got some really good and talented people that work there Anyways, this is Brian. Happy New Year's and I'll see you soon
