Some Assembly required...

All off topic discussions go here. Everything from the funny thing your cat did to your favorite tv shows. Non-programming computer questions are ok too.

Some Assembly required...

Post by NickG »

Hey, whats up, its Nick G!
My topic is does anyone that reads this post know assembly, and have you done any programming with any other language, like c/c++, Visual c#, visual basic?Or like linux kernel developing, file system developing, and stuff like that

As you can see me and my friend, XinSystems, Are trying to make an OS, called XOS(Xin Operating System)
He had no luck on all his posts, as they put him down and stuff like that, so if you know anyone of the above, please consider Joining the xinOS (XOS) Team.

And Another thing to mention is, What OS are you using now??If it is windows and mac, Thats what we are making one like, only with a revolutionary Wheel GUI, there will be a wheel in the middle, and you click it and it expands with all the files and programs, So post something, thanks

Ok, so who has experience with kernel developing, which is a sudden change of direction, but Assembly fits in well in kernel developing.

I would think all OS developers here have exp in C, assembly language, and system programming. I am sure they dont want to be the ones doing all of the work though (ie, what are you going to be doing?)

Start on the project first and then come back to request help much later. This is what I personally recommend anyways as it sounds like neither of you have any knowledge at all in the field. Whatever you choose, I wish you luck on your project.

It would be nice to know what you plan to do in the OS (more than Wheel GUI) and what language you actually plan on using (C OR C++ OR C#). It sounds like you would be better off writing a desktop environment for Linux since the GUI is your main concern.

GUI isnt my concern, That is the other dudes, Mine is The kernel developing, And i will be developing in c, assembly, and c#
c#For the applications
But, anyway, Do you want to help me dev. a simple little DOS like OS??
It will have lots of applications
Or would you rather Be the gui developer, either way Is cool

I know assembly. In fact, my OS, which is in C, is about 80% C and 20% assembly.

...
Some of my "C"-files (specifically mm.c) are almost as much assembler as C.

now who says C and assembly dont mix, to me i have seen the combination used so many times in os development that all i can say is C is one of the best languages to use with assembly in operating system development, but i am just one person, with an opinion, not a fact, the fact is that there are many more great languages, even the ones you could possibly make :D
btw, you can promote your team by putting your os name in your signature, other than spamming (against the rules, even if it isnt, dont do it) it is a better idea and you can't get comments you dont like. if i were you, i would stop with these threads, even if he is your friend, it is good your trying to help, but on here helping that way isnt a good idea. we dont need to see any account deaths in any topic wars today

I don't want to be either and I'm tired of these stupid topics. No, wait, oh they are not topics. They are rather screaming little bits of spam saying "join our wheel GUI team with a dos kernel, it'll be revolutionary"

1st post: ok, your a noob.
2nd post: well maybe your a stupid noob. (the first two were deleted actually)
3rd post: mods, ready your banhammer button.

@OP:
Congratulations! You've just had yet another thread locked.

Before you go and post another thread and have it also get locked, please read the forum rules. So far, you've broken rules 2, 3, and 7. You've also committed several beginner mistakes.

@earlz: I really don't think the moderators need to be told to "ready the banhammer". As the forum rules state, "trolls should live underground..." Feeding them only makes them come above ground more often. Please, don't feed the trolls.
