The C# variety Show began on Thursday with my trip to GLUG.net in Lansing, (this is a great group of guys and gals, and if your free, I highly recommend you to attend, they even have a user group in Flint now!) and didn't stop until yesterday when I got home from CODODN. At about 6:30 on Friday, Mr. McWherter shows up at my house and the road trip begins. After about 4.5 hours, stopping only for necessities we arrive in Wilmington Ohio around. After checking in at the hotel adjoined to the conference...
So, I may not be entirely up on my un-couth Japanese sayings, but one thing is for sure, IL code, to the average developer (Read: Me) might as well be written in the same Romaji thats in the title. That is, it's hard to make heads or tails of, and since you most likely never, or only rarely look at it, you get very little opportunity to actually study it. I've been the same way for the past few years, acknowledging that IL exists, and just like that ugly friend, I don't actually acknowledge there...
In my travels around .Net land, I've come to know, love and exploit several denizens of the tribe of C#. Some of these have already been written about, such as Yield return and the => operator. But more recently, I've had the opportunity to educate some fellow travelers on two of the most useful, but least used operator. Those being the Comparison Operator (?:) and the Null Coalescing Operator (??). Lets start our adventure by watching the Comparison Operator in it's natural environment. If you...
The link explains it all http://msdn2.microsoft.com/... As a developer, you now have full access to the information about Open Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) and Open Protocols. All Windows client operating system API documentation is now available on this MSDN website. Wow...
Well, that time of the year has come and gone again. By that I mean Code mash. I didn’t get a chance to make it to codemash this year, but waking up to find 76 twitterings on my phone (Over half were most likely Dwitters -Drunken Twittering-) is a clear indication that it was both a fun and exciting time for all who attended. In other news, apparently my blog posts (the most recent one about the '=>' specifically) was the issue of some conversations at code mash. And in the process I managed to...
My friend J. Chapman has a great demonstration of how extension methods can help to further de-couple UI elements from BL. Good stuff. I like the approach. This is a good post that i would say to you "Hand out to all the hethens who preach heresy against the church of C#"
Welcome back to our newest installment of Tech in 5 minutes. Today were going to discuss the age old question that every modern family has to confront: Excellent point...however, not today, I meant this one. Special Huggings...yeah in my world that means: Kid k = mom + dad; OR Kid k = (mom + alcohol) + (dad+ alcohol) So now I will be your doctor of love and teach you to make kids. Not only that, but we can illustrate all the major aspects of life via operator overloading, Like The first job, The...
This might come off a little mean but.... HA HA! All you pretentious mac Zealots out there! This is aimed at all those people who said "Go to apples home page and type 'Windows' in the search bar! Haha, so true so true, Mac's don't get viruses because [Insert why mac pcs are better than windows based pc's]" This means one thing: Apple's day has finally come and Apple users are going to get hit hard. All those unpatched vulnerabilities from years past are going to bite them in the behind. I can sum...
Buddy Jay Wren has an interview on Josh Holmes Channel 9 show "Code to Live". Jay is being interviewed about "BOO: The wrist friendly language for the CLI". When you get a chance, check it out. Josh also has a great challenge and that is "...each of you to investigate a new language..." and I couldn't agree more. So, Get out there and CODE...
And I have'nt made a post? In all honesty, the trip to Japan really knocked the wind out of me. So now it's pressing deadlines and fenagling conference calls. I'm also in the process of learning some Japanese. Its an interesting language, and as a developer, I thik it is constructed in a logical way thats easy to break down. Easier in some ways than English, and harder in others. I'm looking at doing another tech in 5 min soon, but i want to get your feeback first. I'm kicking around these ideas...
