I have uploaded a new msi package of DeVeDe 3.16.9 Build 2. It has disabled the percentage progress on what I believe is everything and now only has pulsing progress bars. This should alleviate all dead lock issues when running DeVeDe on Windows; at least I hope it does as I hardly ever run into the issue it is hard to tell. Over the coming weeks (months) I am hoping to re-enable the percentage progress bars. I figure it is better to have working program then one that only works partially.

Download from the DeVeDe page http://majorsilence.com/devede.


When you need to free up space on a virtual machine (Windows XP/2003/Vista/7) use sdelete (Zero free space) http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897443.aspx.

Boot the vm. Defrag the drive. Run: sdelete -z c:

Shut down the vm

Using VirtualBox do the following: VBoxManage modifyvdi “/path/to/vmDisk.vdi” –compact

Newer versions: VBoxManage modifyhd “/path/to/vmDisk.vdi” –compact

The path must be the full path.



Sample code for exporting scripts to drop and recreate all user defined Stored Procedures and Functions in a database.

The code uses SQL 2005/2008 Server Management Objects to accomplish this task. It loops through all functions and SPs and writes drop command for each of them then loops through and appends the create scripts for them to the same file. All commands are appended to the “c:\SomePath\SPExport.sql” file.

Update (2010/07/29): Added IronPython example.

I have fixed some bugs to allow zpu to work with the latest ZenPhoto server software again. I have committed the changes to the sourceforge.net svn repository (http://sourceforge.net/projects/zpu/develop) and built a new windows msi package.

The msi package can be downloaded from my site at http://majorsilence.com/zpu.
