Objective

To enter business relationships that allow me to use my expertise in client/server, GUI and web server development to work independently, involving work in such areas as C++, SQL many varieties , and server-side technologies.

Work Experience/Accomplishment Highlights from Resume. Actual resume available on request

• Created Internet server using winsock for allowing any number of clients to listen to data coming in from a communication port COM port .

  • Also created two GUI clients which listened to two different kinds of data coming in from the port. Utilized Winsock 2.
  • Creating communication port controller application for custom device. Involved GUI, threading issues, call and response simulation, more.
  • Creating barcode reader and printer application. Included GUI, threading issues, print scaling for arbitrary devices from special-purpose label printers to inkjets.
  • Creating data-specification Win32 database and UI application for "smart chips. Required dynamic, runtime creation of database schema, SQL writing to both create and present current database to the user and UI programming. UI mainly includes a complex, multi-step, multi-path wizard, which was done to the Wizard 97 specification. UI includes Tree Views, List Views and many other Common Controls, used with icon presentation similar in feel to the MS

• Writing server- and client-side Perl code to enable what had been a server-side process to be converted into a client-server process.

  • Data communication was done using XML, with all code written by me, including code to convert any perl variable into XML recursively .
  • Creating a new Win32 application to present the user-interface for maintaining process settings as well as seeing viewing run status of the client/server process. This ran as a system tray application in a very similar way to the way Instant Messenger runs.
  • In addition to new code mentioned above, made modifications to existing Perl and SQL Server database code on server as needed to create client/server process.

• Wrote COM object to create bitmaps of web pages from URLs, utilizing the IE page rendering engine.

  • Required among other things creation of custom OLE Control container written entirely by me. Project used ATL for basic COM support but did not use ATL control containment. Other programming areas involved: offscreen device contexts, generation of image files from device contexts, etc.

• Designed and implemented method by which news story feed in XML format was integrated with company s web site.

  • Created conforming XML parser and wrote ODBC code to store data into database. Done in C++, with ODBC Win32 API used directly, not through MFC or similar.
  • Designed and implemented SQL database and wrote the stored procedures that comprised database interface for story data retrieval process.

• Performed treatment of web site to add delayed quote data to home page quote data on page at http://www.somewhere.com.

  • Required:
    1. writing an NT service to do the reliable periodic retrieval of quote data from the quote provider all parameters of the retrieval - interval, etc. - were customizable ;
    2. writing JavaScript support code to access data retrieved by the NT service.
    System has been up and running since June 2000 and has required no maintenance or support by me since initial implementation.
  • Allows any html/asp writer to insert quote data by simply calling one javascript function in their asp code then inserting the value of a server side variable into their html.

• Created scriptable trade import adapter

  • Also created COM object allowing users to write trade import routines in any ActiveX scripting language on the machine e.g. VBScript, JScript, etc.
  • Wrote from the ground up support for Excel-style print scaling in all grids in the company s main application Perspective: Risk . Support included not only all Excel-like features fit to x by y pages, or scale to z percent but also additional features to allow even more control over output. Required direct utilization of Win32 device context scaling mechanisms.
  • Wrote COM Price Adapters for accessing quote data. These were multithreading intensive in several cases and all had multiple configuration dialogs, a variety of which used not only regular dialog controls but also Win32 Common Controls for an up-to-date, modern and very usable GUIs. Data sources: PC Quote, Bloomberg, Interquote, Trading Technology and Townsend Analytics.
  • Created reusable, templated ATL-oriented class for reusing common COM Price Adapter code.
  • Created a class templated on the concrete class of the using code among other things, and in other ways as well behaving similarly to an ATL base class. Eliminated virtually all repetitive coding that had been necessary in the creation of price adapters.
  • Created reusable ODBC Open Database Connectivity wrapper classes which were used in multiple projects. These objects wrapped the native Win32 API and included serialization support.
  • Wrote a Visual Basic for Applications Analysis Template for viewing risk exposure as market conditions change. This was about 50 pages of VBA code involving many aspects of VB/VBA, including forms, use of ActiveX controls, use of common controls, many other user interface issues, general VB programming.

• Development of html-based web trading server.

  • Server app allows customers to trade, see account balances, view holdings, get quotes, view order status and order history. Application is a multithreaded COM server accessed from an ISAPI DLL. System allowed easy co-marketing of products due to page-based nature and custom html parser allowing page creation in a syntax resembling ASP in a generic thread-safe framework for development of similar html-based applications. Flexible caching allows dynamic editing of custom html pages while not compromising production performance at all.
  • Creation of a single code layer that allowed all of the company s primary products to be either ActiveX controls or previously existing DLL-based windows. Non-trivial use of MFC s OLE control framework. Allowed products to be sold to web browser-based IE customers. Full code sharing achieved in creation of new framework that could be applied to all existing products/components.
  • Creation of ASP pages used in automated client registration and security mechanism over the internet.
  • Creation of a mechanism whereby automation interfaces for the ActiveX controls were inheritable. Custom implementation allows common OLE automation properties and methods to be available to all controls, while allowing each to have its own custom properties and methods, but the entire thing becomes visible as one unified default automation interface to the client.
  • Development of web-based installer created for installing complex ActiveX controls. Allows just- in-time and only as needed downloading of components from the internet and control of install via scripts. Scripting language is completely general for installation tasks and could be used anywhere.
  • Development of company s integrated web browser. This was a complete, functional web browser, with a few configuration dialogs, that ran inside the company s main product. It included drag and drop behavior customizations, a complete and very functional GUI including state-based greying of buttons as page loaded stop button only available while page loading, etc. Module of course used embedded IE ActiveX control.
  • Development of thread-safe wrapper for asynchronous use of Wininet library. Used by all ActiveX controls for retrieving URL properties as well as for net installer described above. Note that async use of Wininet is mostly undocumented.
  • Heavily used most areas of commonly needed COM and OLE automation including dual interfaces, enumerations, optional arguments, as well as development of custom COM interfaces i.e. non-OLE automation and use of IDataObject for inter-ActiveX control tick data communication.
  • Conformed to Townsend permissioning process by making the ActiveX framework embrace permissioning state, and make UI changes based on that state. Required massive revision of basic model since previously each DLL was not handling permissioning, yet this was done in such a way that still allowed full sharing of pre-existing code.
  • Utilized Perl to automate generation of files needed for proprietary download described above .
  • Miscellaneous other Win32 projects, some using MFC, some not, including writing of various command-line utilities.
  • Gained experience with winsock.

• Data recovery software for Macintosh HFS volumes completed.

  • The software recovers data from media having software corruption too severe for products like Norton Utilities to handle. 97 data recovery rate for recoveries attempted through present. Covers all software corruption scenarios. Restores files in Finder-aware manner. All C++, 87 classes, 15,419 lines of source.
