I am a bit confused about the difference between Silverlight and Expression Blend. From my understanding, Silverlight is used to create a better interface, and Blend is used to create animations? Meaning you can use Silverlight without having to use Expression Blend (there is much demand for Silverlight developers, but I from what I know...

I'm trying to evaluate whether to use classic Principal based authorization vs. IdentityModel authorization. It seems like Microsoft is recommending the latter these days, but I haven't seen enough in terms of maturity or support for it. Specifically, I really like the ability to set a PrincipalPermissionAttribute and allow the framework...
I currently have a C# application which makes frequent web requests that have to potentially go through proxy authentication. In this situation, a large PAC file (200kb+) is used to automatically configure the proxy and is stored on a remote server. When initializing the HttpWebRequest I have been setting the default proxy by using 'Web...

MSDN states that you do not need to specify the attribute suffix when using attributes in code Example: You have an attribute named HelpAttribute. You can decorate a property with [Help] (no Attribute suffix) or with [HelpAttribute]; either is allowable. But, does the code run faster when you use the full attribute name rather...

I struggled to write a more appropriate 'title' to this question - I will try and clean it up when I have a better understanding of the solution and the correct terminology. :D There is a pattern that is repeating in the last two projects I've been working on (the projects are both heavily event driven). The pattern is: public interfa...

When thinking about traditional layered application design, I often think in terms of 3 layers: The bottom-most layer which actually talks to the database (let's call this the "data access layer"). It returns objects (in some form) to the next layer. The layer above the bottom-most layer (the middle layer, which I'll term the "data la...
My requirement is to create temp table then exec a store procedure which will insert rows into the temp table then drop the temp table. However if there is an error when doing this, I want to always drop the temp table at the end.

Updated: See end of question for how I implemented the solution. Sorry for the poorly-worded question, but I wasn't sure how best to ask it. I'm not sure how to design a solution that can be re-used where most of the code is the exact same each time it is implemented, but part of the implementation will change every time, but follow si...
