Do you use some kind of code snippet manager?

In: General

30 Dec 2008

Hi guys, and girls. I have a quick one… Does anyone of you use any kind of code snippet manager software. I’m thinking of implementing that philosophy into our team. A lot of code parts has been rewritten from scratch so I would like to speed some thing up. I only have one condition for code snipper management software. I need it to save passwords in a “open” manner, like plain text or XML files or even to database. Basically I would like to make a intranet solution latter based on those code snippets. Any ideas? Please, share some thoughts.

A few months ago I try with some Adobe Aire application. I think that it calls Snippet. My problem was the portability.
For that reason I’m using a mix of options, but the most acceptable is some big email account or some code repository online.

Hi Damian,

Thank you for your input. i just tried Snippet. Looks somewhat cheap with options. As yours, mine concerns are also portability related. Planning to make a switch to Linux on my laptop so…

For what I saw in todays short period of google-ing around is that this is quite neglected area, code snippets.

What’s wrong with creating a library of re-usable classes that encapsulate commonly repeated functionality. In this way your “snippets” can build on-top of and re-use each other. To organize you group them into discrete cohesive packages of classes.
