Coding Classes and apps
This page collects some code I developed along the years.
Hey, there's some trivial stuff about web services and being not at the top of performance, but it can be used as introductory example for newbies.
Please, let me know about bugs and/or suggestions for further improvement: this is the free spirit of Open Source.

       Delayed command This function delays the command associated to a keyboard event.

As the typing is over, the function is run.
    I'm not sure yet, but this trick could be exported to other situations where a delay is required.

       CFile The work on this class is in progress.
    Help me to improve it, please and we'll get something very useful for everybody.


    I needed something that worked fine, almost like the class CFile of MFC in Visual C++.
    I coded this class which basically does the same, even if not with the same efficiency, due to PHP limitations anyway.
    Developers can read and write data in both text and binary mode, so that they can manage strings, numbers (integer, float, double) and arrays. They can also move the file pointer back and forth for any need.

    The attached examples cover simple file management, reading of file header structures (jpeg and bmp, here). Although they are rather naive, the goal of these examples is just to show the features of this class.
