startwithmemlimit
At first I couldn’t believe that such tool wasn’t readily available because I’ve seen dozens of posts on different forums asking how to do this, however… I guess nobody felt urged enough to actually write a command line app for this. Well, I did startwithmemlimit is a Win32 application, which can impose a hard limit

Recent locations dialog is an improved version of standard open/save file dialog. It features lists of 100 most recently accessed folders and files for easier navigation among commonly used resources.

Barebone Home Update
I’ve improved Barebone Home a little. The most important change is “Connectivity” menu, which allows for quick switching of APN, WiFi and Bluetooth connetions on/off and also displays stats for /sys/class/net/rmnet0 (APN connection). Additionally – “Recent” filter has been added, which is even more handy than built-in recent activities switcher. “Change wallpaper” and “Settings” shortcuts

I’ve run into problems with QXmlQuery though, because it doesn’t seem to support @Attribute queries either in QXmlQuery::XPath20 or QXmlQuery::XQuery10 mode. I’ve tested it without my custom model and as result got the same

LINQ/C++
LINQ was released as part of .NET Framework 3.5 back in 2007 – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_Integrated_Query. Some attempts were made to mimic its capabilities in C++, most notably the proof of concept code by Hong Jiang: https://github.com/hjiang/linqxx. I’ve written my own, more concise version with similar functionality, which you can see below. Now I’m planning to play

Random thought – QObjectLocker
I figured it _could_ be useful to have my mutexes created automatically for me on a per object basis. QObjectLocker maintains a pool of mutexes assigned to specified addresses (object pointers) in memory. Otherwise it behaves similarly to QMutexLocker. This way I don’t have to extend or pair up existing objects with their respective mutexes,
