Otherwise, moving to a different language requires learning that language, including its strengths, weaknesses, and idioms. If you are going to convert to C#, and will need to maintain that app, you'd better learn C#. Once you do, you might look at the converted code and decide that it isn't optimal. -- Ed Leafe ___ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: https://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: https://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: https://leafe.com/archives This message: https://leafe.com/archives/byMID/e1757384-58be-4001-aa8a-0490e3fa4...@leafe.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.

First, some outlook emails are sent base64 encoded - I have no idea why. You can copy the gibberish text and paste in an online tool like https://toolbox.googleapps.com/apps/encode_decode/ and it will decode it for you. So I did just that, and the email had the following line: Refactor time. đ You should be able to swap out those SEEK function + !FOUND() calls with a single INDEXSEEK call. followed by the complete text of Paul's message, including the full program text. IOW, there were 115 characters of actual new message out of 7792 characters total, which is less that 1.5% of the message.

I wrote the Python SDK for Rackspace (actually, all of OpenStack), and here's
the code for copying one object to another container:
@_handle_container_not_found
def copy_object(self, container, obj, new_container, new_obj_name=None,
content_type=None):
"""
Copies the object to the new container, optionally giving it a new name.
If you copy to the same container, you must supply a different name.
Returns the etag of the newly-copied object.
You can optionally change the content_type of the object by supplying
that in the 'content_type' parameter.
"""
nm = new_obj_name or utils.get_name(obj)
uri = "/%s/%s" % (utils.get_name(new_container), nm)
copy_from = "/%s/%s" % (utils.get_name(container), utils.get_name(obj))
headers = {"X-Copy-From": copy_from,
"Content-Length": "0"}
if content_type:
headers["Content-Type"] = content_type
resp, resp_body = self.api.method_put(uri, headers=headers)
return resp.headers.get("etag")
To translate to English, the URI is the base URI for the service, with
"/new_container/new_name" appended to it. "new_name" defaults to the original
object's name, but if you supply a different name for the copied object, that
one is used instead.
The headers contain an item "X-Copy-From", whose value is
"/original_container/original_name", which tells the API where to copy from.
The operation is a PUT. "COPY" is a non-standard method; I don't know what
idiot wrote the documentation you cited. These are the HTTP methods:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertext_Transfer_Protocol#Request_methods
Hope that makes some sense. If not, please let me know what needs clarifying.

Back around 2001 I was looking to re-do my website, and searched around for recommendations. The name âZopeâ kept popping up, and since it was in my price range (free!), I downloaded it and started playing around. It came with several simple things for making different pages, and seemed to work OK, but if you wanted to do anything more than basic static HTML, you had to write âscriptsâ in this language called âPythonâ. I had never used Python, but after skimming some examples I tried writing a Python script. It worked on the first try. Beginners luck, right? So I tried something a little more complex, and that worked, too! After a few of these I figured that either I had just gotten really smart, or Python fit my brain really well.
