  • Friend assemblies and strong names

    Before getting started, I’d like to say that I don’t really use friend assemblies much. However, there are times where using friend assemblies is a must and in those cases, you might end up getting into the problem I had. For starters, you need to use the InternalsVisibleToAttribute to signal a friend...

  • EF first impressions

    In these last 2 days I’ve been reading several documents on the ADO.NET Entity Framework . My main objective here is see if it is ready for being used in projects based on the DDD philosophy. Even though I still haven’t started writing code, it seems evident to me that EF is still a far away from being...

  • Future projects: Portuguese C# book on LINQ

    Ok, I can finally mention this on the open...in the last months I've been working with my friend Paulo on what is supposed to be the 1st Portuguese book on LINQ with C#. We're well on the way to complete the 1st phase of the project and should start the reviewing stages by the end of the month...

  • More C# style trivia

    In one of my last posts , I’ve said that I didn’t like the new recommendation of not using _ to prefix member fields. At the time, we all seem to agree that using hungarian was really a bad thing. So, I’ve searched the web and I’m putting here a link on the use of Hungarian notation by the man himself...

  • Using Postsharp for solving the inexisting multi-inheritance problem

    Well, not really... As you surely know, you cannot have mutiple inheritance in .NET. That really sucks. Yes, I agree that multiple inheritance might bring several problems but when applied correctly, it really helps. Don't believe me? Ok, take a look at WTL . Back to .NET...Since we can't use...

  • .NET 3.5 and VS SP beta1 goodies

    You can get them from here (VS) and here (.NET). I'm reading what's new on Brad Abrams post and I'm really digging the new features:) For instance, having the format option working with JS code is simply cool! Another cool thing: the ScriptManager is able to combine scripts so there's...

  • Path.Combine saves the day...again

    I've already blogged about the cool utility Path class. However, it seems like there still are some people that prefer to do it the hardway :) Here's an example of a question I've received: "How can I return the full path to a file? I mean, I might receive a local path...in that case...

  • Type inference in C# 3.0

    My friend Paulo published a post that talks about type inference and how it might evolve in the next years. Even though type inference's main objective is to support LINQ (in fact, most of the new stuff that C#3.0 introduced is only there to support LINQ), I must say that I've been enjoying it...

  • xUnit.NET RC2 released

    I've just noticed that xUnit.NET RC2 was released a few days ago. It seems like it has several cool things, though there still isn't a runner for R# 4.0 .

  • Are you working with paths?

    I believe that everyone has had to (at least once) write code that needs to work with paths. How many of us have gone into writing something like this: String basePath = "c:\\myPath"; String fileName = "myfile.doc"; String completeFilePath = basePath + "\\" + "myfile...

  • Are you trying to reduce your lock contention?

    Michael Suess has a great blog on parallel programming and concurrency. Even though this post has already got some months, I still recommend it to everyone that wants to improve their knowledge on lock contention reduction.

  • Open Source projects in .NET

    An open letter from D. Starr to Scott G. resulted in a cool discussion about open source projects in the .NET platform. If you have the time, then go read it! [I know this is old, but I'm on vacations:) ]

  • Printing accented words on a Zebra

    Some time ago, I've written a small sample that abstracts some of the details associated with printing to the Zebra. This post explains what you need to do in order to print accented chars to those printers. By default, Zebras use a codepage which don't print accents. Fortunately, setting the codepage...
