In .NET 3.5, I'd like to create a singleton interface: interface ISingleton <T> { public static T Instance {get;} } Of course that doesn't work but is what I'd like. Any suggestions? EDIT: I just want it to be known that all singeltons will have a static property named Instance of the class type. It is always there. An interface w...

In the MVVM pattern for WPF, handling dialogs is one of the more complex operations. As your view model does not know anything about the view, dialog communication can be interesting. I can expose an ICommand that when the view invokes it, a dialog can appear. Does anyone know of a good way to handle results from dialogs? I am speakin...

I usually do this by passing Customer to a class which knows how to create a Word document, insert bookmarks etc. The problem with this, is that I find myself placing the logic for retrieving and formatting information about the Customer obj...
I've created a .NET winforms MVC. The Controller and View are in the same EXE. Model is in a set of DLLs that get used by several groups. The MVC is very explicit. Model knows nothing of Controller and Controller knows nothing of View. I'm thinking to put the Controller in its own DLL so that it can be unit tested. Highly unlike so...
In .NET 3.5 winforms, I've created an MVC. I'd like to take the controller part and put it into a separate assembly, so that it has no knowledge of the view. My app uses five forms in its view. The controller takes care of initializing the forms at different times, which means the controller has a reference to the view (something I'd ...

I'm currently working on a project which exposes some functions through webservices. Trouble is, some calls should return an array of "Attribute", which is a container class for a database cell. These attributes are, obviously, of different types (int, string, date, timestamp and so on). Nothing really hard, just basic types. By now, th...
In addition to the basic *, ? and [...] patterns, the Bash shell provides extended pattern matching operators like !(pattern-list) ("match all except one of the given patterns"). The extglob shell option needs to be set to use them. An example: ~$ mkdir test ; cd test ; touch file1 file2 file3 ~/test$ echo * file1 file2 file3 ~/test$ sh...
Almost every programmer did it once in his life: setting some flag if a variable's value changed. There's always lots of properties and you want to keep track if something changed in any property in a specific property or in some set of properties I'm interested in different ways to implement the "dirty-flag" functionality for the a...
Say I want to open a new form.. TestForm test = new TestForm(); What is the good way to close it? More precisely, is only calling close() ok? Should I use the using() {} so dispose() is called ? And finally, suppose there is a dialog that should have only one instance of a dialog opened, is there a well "known" pattern? I've got di...

The software I will be building will involve "application" switching between different status a lot. Certain tasks can be done depends on the status an application is at. I was thinking about using enum as the status public class Application { public int Id {get;set;} public Status {get;set;} } public enum Status { [Description("N...
Hi, I develop a collaborative business application on a multi-touch device like Microsoft Surface. However to my mind every collaborative application on a multi-touch device was made to share photos, to draw, to play, or for one person at time. So, I have no reference and I'm having a hard time to imagine how multiple users can work on ...

Hi! I am trying to match column values returned, but values are returned as a result of pattern matching: select app.employees.id, app.employees.name, app.employees.current_bp, app.designation.designation from app.employees, app.designation where app.employees.id like 'khsn?' = app.designation.desig_id like 'khsn?'; As you can see,...
