In case you don't know of Phoenix, it's a compiler framework from Microsoft that's apparantly going to be the foundation of all their new compilers. It can read in code from CIL, x86, x64, and IA64; and emit code in x86, x64, IA64, or CIL. Can I use it to transform a pure .Net app into a pure native app? By which I mean, it will not hav...
I have created a C# class file by using a XSD-file as an input. One of my properties look like this: private System.DateTime timeField; [System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute(DataType="time")] public System.DateTime Time { get { return this.timeField; } set { this.timeField = value; } } ...

Spring.net seems to depend on different versions of the NHibernate assemblies (maybe it needs 1.2.1.4000 and my NHibernate version is 1.2.0.4000). I solved some problems with the "bindingRedirect" TAG, but now even that stopped working. My Questi...

OK, this might sound a bit confusing and complicated, so bear with me. We've written a framework that allows us to define friendly URLs. If you surf to any arbitrary URL, IIS tries to display a 404 error (or, in some cases, 403;14 or 405). However, IIS is set up so that anything directed to those specific errors is sent to an .aspx file...

My whole department has owned individual copies of ReSharper for about a year, but I find I'm one of only two people that actually use any of its features regularly. I'm trying to get everybody to use it more effectively and would like opinions on the most useful features and their shortcuts so I can share more than just what I use it f...

A lot of contact management programs do this - you type in a name (e.g., "John W. Smith") and it automatically breaks it up internally into: First name: John Middle name: W. Last name: Smith Likewise, it figures out things like "Mrs. Jane W. Smith" and "Dr. John Doe, Jr." correctly as well (assuming you allow for fields like "prefix" a...
