A widespread issue developers run into when building applications is grouping and organizing code correctly so that it is easier for other developers to understand and collaborate. Conflicting class names, functions, and other code blocks is an issue for developers, and PHP offers a way to tackle this problem by adding namespaces to the language in PHP 5.3. In this article, you will learn everything you need to know to start using namespaces to organize your code efficiently in PHP.

NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory’s Laboratory for Reliable Software developed a set of code guidelines for developing safety-critical code. The NASA's 10 rules are intended to eliminate C coding practices that make it difficult to review or properly analyze with static analysis tools. Enforce NASA's 10 Rules With Klocwork.

In Kotlin, an enum (short for enumerator) is a special kind of predefined Kotlin data type used to store and represent a fixed set of named constant values, often simply referred to as constants. Each constant is an object, meaning they can have properties and methods, these are enums and are useful for representing elements that are fixed (for example days of the week) and don’t change.

Kevin McGahey - May 28, 2024 It’s been a while since our last update, but while we’ve been AWOL, we most certainly haven’t been AFK. Here’s a brief summary of what we’ve been up to since the last update.

Blog post summary: We have a new, improved way to integrate with GitHub using a GitHub App. It offers a more secure connection and granular control of which repositories Bitrise can access. Full integration with GitHub Checks allows developers to quickly identify if their changes have broken any existing functionality, improving workflow efficiency.

When you run a Java program, the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) needs to load various classes to execute the program. The java.lang.ClassNotFoundException occurs when the JVM tries to load a particular class but doesn’t find it in the classpath. One of the most common reasons for the ClassNotFoundException is missing third-party libraries. Double-checking that all necessary dependencies are included in the classpath and that the classpath is correctly configured can prevent this exception.

Java.lang exceptions are some of the most commonly encountered exceptions in Java programming. As one of the foundational packages in the Java Standard Library, you don't even explicitly import java.lang in your code; it’s automatically imported into every Java program. Thanks to java.lang you get essential classes such as String, Math, and System, among others. You also get a variety of base classes for handling exceptions and errors.
