Why I love programming?

Image
Extended title:  " Why I love coding/programming, software development, software engineering and everything in this field of work ? " I am a guy who easily gets bored of stuff within short span of time. In this context, I have a brain like that of a 2 years old kid who craves for something and when I get it I abandon it away within no time. But it's exactly the other way round when it comes to anything in computers. I first saw a computer at the age of 15 when my first cousin got one for a post graduate program. I, for that matter anyone of us kids, were not allowed to touch it initially. After a few months of pestering we were allowed to play games and MS Paint. Eventually, not by choice though, got a seat in computers and information science branch for my engineering course and my dad got me my first computer. I am including the spec just to know how much we have progressed since 15 years. - Pentium  III  processor cased inside a cab

Rotate Scale Flip - NSImageView

This is a problem which I have fiddled a lot to solve. Sometimes NSImageView objects seems to behave strangely when you rotate them and try to reposition it inside its superview. The Problem: I had an NSImageView as subview of another NSView. There where slider controls to scale and rotate the subview as and when required. I also had horizontal and vertical flipping options. So when I played around with it, the subview started acting weirdly. I had used [subview setFrameCenterRotation:angle]; to rotate the subview. For flipping NSAffineTransform scaleXBy:yBy: was helpful. Scaling I had set the imageScaling flag, so that I just have to set the frame and NSImageView takes care of it by itself. Now why is this acting weirdly? Seems all fine. All proper apis have been used. After some brain wracking and a little help from OpenGL transformation application, I found out the solution. If you have rotated a image view, before doing any other transformation rotate it back to ze

Tint an NSImage view

I was developing an editor kind of stuff, where there are multiple images placed in a view and lot of custom drawings happen here and there in the custom views. The user gets to select a view and it has to be highlighted. For this I used to dram a boundary line using NSBezierPath in the view's drawRect: method. But this used to hide the edges and corners of the view. Users started to complain they cannot place the views pixel perfect. They demanded for tinting the view. After googling out for some time I found following NSImage extension: @implementation NSImage (Extends) - (NSImage *)imageTintedWithColor:(NSColor *)tint {     if (tint != nil) {         NSSize size = [self size];         NSRect bounds = { NSZeroPoint, size };         NSImage *tintedImage = [[NSImage alloc] initWithSize:size];         [tintedImage lockFocus];         CIFilter *colorGenerator = [CIFilter filterWithName:@"CIConstantColorGenerator"];         CIColor *color = [[[CIColor alloc] in
