Umm..title says it all, Larkware linkis here, download link here
Another of my fairly simple functions (actually written by a colleague of mine, Jonny Anderson) - this time just a simple way to validate a Guid - in this implementation you pass in a Guid as an 'out' parameter along with the string you want to test - it then…
New release of the Data Access Application Block (funny, I thought version 2 had already been released...). Got this from Michael Swanson's blog.
Notice Darrellhas just created a new workspace for his 'Default Buttons' thing - nice! I posted the original version previously...
I love this sort of stuff...(oh, and do check out the comments Chris A. has some really 'interesting' views :-)). It does remind me a lot of some summer jobs I had - I used to work with people with dementia / schzophrenia, the arguments I've read recently…
I forget where I shamelessly ripped this off from...but I did - if it was you, please leave a comment berating me in some way...Anyway, a new version of Ghengis , the excellent .NET Windows Forms control toolkit has been released...if you haven't checked this…
Just realised how few people use these (quick office poll on the use of Windows-D to minimise all windows...) So, have a look at this shortcut key list
It never ceases to amaze me the lengths to which Spammers go to get you to read their dumb emails... Some however are just deeply dumb and to be gullible enough to read them would put you into a category of stupidity which would automatically (or should)…
Looks like the FeedValidator people have finally fixed their tool...my feed now validates: I believe this should apply to any .TEXT users.
If you have an office like this in Scotland - I WILL come and work for you...I've said it before, but would you really want to bet against Joel Spolsky for anything - I mean, this guy has some of the best ideas on the planet...Microsoft, how did you let this…
http://rss.com.com/2010-7345_3-5079603.html?part=rss&tag=feed&subj=news Gotta love this quote... "Unlike J2EE middleware, .Net doesn't do much beyond connecting information to the Windows desktop. Companies have moved beyond merely connecting applications but…
Linked to the other 3, here's part 4 , very interesting stuff about Virtual methods in C# This is really interesting stuff (well, I think it is!)...here's a section on 'contracts' and virtual methods...the Java bit is SO true! Bill Venners: What do you mean by…
Though I'd point to an excellent article on Indexed Views. For those who don't know what these are, well, if you have a fairly complex database schema, you can gain a great deal of performance benefits by aggregating the output of common queries into indexed…
Okay, I realise that probably everyone and his / her mother knows this already, but if you want to log ALL errors in an ASP.NET application, the simplest way I've found to do it is in the Global.asax.cs (or whatever codebehind)...simply do this: protected void…
Just discovered this, a collection of links to amazingly interesting C# projects. I love the idea of SourceFTP which essentially gives you 'SourceSafe - like' access to FTP - so you can share stuff stored on an FTP server with a form of versioning (and looking…
Sorry...don't have much to post about right now...I'll get back to it soon enough.
I love my little Mini-ITX server (you're using it right now :-)) but this is just insane...a Nano-ITX board! Wonder how long before someone comes up with a consumer version of an array of these things...could sort out the heat problems of bigger chips...just…
I Just thought this was a great article for anyone interested in developing WinForms in C# (or indeed and .NET language)
The Amiga has a special place in my heart...so, reading this news is fantastic - you will (soonish) be able to get an Amiga ONE (kind of a 'super' amiga) in Mini-ITX form...I am SO getting one when they come out...wonder if MONO will work on it - they have a…
How did I miss this - a whole lovely article on blogs in ASP.NET in the October 2003 edition of MSDN magazine. As usual, you can download a CHM of it here. But MSDN will you PLEASE RELEASE A MS READER VERSION - would it really be that hard...?!
