OpenTK users
Posted Wednesday, 29 April, 2009 - 06:34 by puklaus inI have couple of questions, answer if you dare :)
1* How old, programmer guru, are you?
2* Are you using OpenTK hobbyist or work, both?
3* Do you use opentk branch when you cant find specific method at trunk/ ?
4* Do you (if working with opentk) coding on free time after work, with opetk?
1* 29
2* only hobbyist
3* trunk, no need to go to branches (im thinking that winforms based gamewindow)
4* I program whenever i want (sometimes over 12h/day) and everyday. (unless im too drunk)
(i had couple of better questions but i forgot them)
Yeah this is so offtopic and stupid questions but if you dare to answer, :)

Re: OpenTK users
yeah... very offtopic but not so stupid; it's an interesting way to know each others, I think ;-)
well, my answers:
1. I'm 36 years old and I'm programming for Windows since 15 years (more or less); now I use .Net (VB/C#/Asp.Net) and I have a good knowledge of PowerBuilder and SQL languages oriented: My OpenGL knowledge is really really basic since I've started to study it in a couple of months.
2. Just for hobby; but I have a couple of ideas for a future business...
3. OpenTK it's my window on OpenGL; .Net Framework it's my daily developing field, so it is needful for me to use OpenGL
4. For work, I write code for 9/10 hours a day; I study OpenGL/OpenTK just 4/5 hours a week - or until I'm acceptably mental glossy :-)
That's me :-)
Re: OpenTK users
Here's mine:
1. 29
2. Both
3. Fiddler wants me to test branches in Ubuntu sometimes, that's my only contact with anything but the main OpenTK.zip (I'm a lazy guy). OpenTK so far has been 90% GLControl under WinForms, using Visual Studio 2005/2008. Ubuntu/mono is really mostly for running the end product for me.
4. Work: 8hrs weekdays. At home: depends on inspiration (and how much domestic things there are to take care of. Often my programming urge beats any "have-to-do's", which is kinda hard on the relation to my wife but she's used to it by now ;)

Fiddler:
"The problem with long coding sessions is that you tend to get stumped on stupid bugs ('Why is my lighting all wrong?' Two hours later: 'ah, yes, I forgot to multiply with the modelview matrix.') Better take a long break and come back later."
Yeah, its good when always remembering that, I sometimes hours and more trying find bug and no success. Next day, it splash in my eyes, there it is, and
development continues.
Thanks answering (and more to come, i hope)
My little story:
Im just metal guy, (nc milling (edit: routing I mean, i cant find good english word with that what i mean :) ) programmer by job) but my hobby is programming since salora manager -> basic.
then parents buy pc (8088), then gwbasic and then pascal.
286, borland C (+asm), 386, djgpp (+at&t asm), someday to windows (dont even remember, then i was so dos programmer that windows programming
feels stupid..when i realise it's ok) :)
sdl long time and then OO-language, THE Java and then later C# and (quess what) .... opentk :) and now im trying learn axiom (C# and that I dont
change, I like that, better than java.. hmm D? no, i dont even investigate)
Seems that my whole life is programming, but it's ok :)

1. 29
2. Hobby
3. Avoid branches unless you are curious. They are minefields and for a good reason separated from trunk ;)
4. Depends how you define "coding", does it include reading/design/planning aswell or is it only hands-on-keyboard? Currently I'd measure the first in hours/day the later in hours/week.

1) 37, I am a professional programmer by day.
2) Hobby, I fumble around 3d graphics land at night. Assuming, I can still muster the mental energy.
3) I have a slightly tweaked version of OpenTK that I keep aligned with the published versions.
4) Yes, I spend a considerable amount of my useful free time programming.
Re: OpenTK users
1) 19, Computer Science student.
2) Hobby, whenever I can find some time to play with 3D.
3) I use the stable releases in Visual Studio 2008.
4) I always program in my free time, though I'm using OpenTK for a CG school project now. :)
