I can't see anywhere that this should be the case, but I get an "Invalid declaration syntax" error in the get everytime I declare a static property that does not start with an uppercase letter. E.g: type Foo() = class static member bar with get() = "bar" //Invalid declaration syntax in get end ...
I've been sort of on the fence on this one for a while, but I'd like to know what people think about accessing instance variables directly from within an Objective-C class implementation? Using accessors and mutators makes a lot of things easy, but for simple things, is it bad to access the instance variable directly? Is the best practi...
I've noticed that some of Apple's examples include both a retain and readonly modifier on properties. What's the point of including retain if no setter gets generated when we're using the readonly modifier? Example: @property (retain, readonly) NSString *title; from the AnimatedTableView sample. ...
Sorry I couldn't give a more descriptive title. My question (after looking at the code below) is what statusText is. Is it an IBOutlet or a UILabel? How does "@property (retain,nonatomic) UILabel *statusText" work? Does that statement mean that statusText is a property??? Thanks for answering. If there are any questions, please feel fre...

Is there a special XML element for name/value property pairs like the following, something that I can leverage in C# code? <Properties> <Property> <Name>xyz</Name> <Value>abc</Value> </Property> </Properties> ...
Hi, all. My spaghetti monster consumes XML from several different SOAP services, and the URL for each service is hardcoded into the application. I'm in the process of undoing this hardcoding, and storing the URLs in a properties file. In terms of reading the properties file, I'd like to encompass that logic in a Singleton that can be ...
I ran across this segment of code (in .m implementation file in an IBAction instance method): UIActionSheet *actionSheet = [[UIActionSheet alloc] ...]; ... [actionSheet showInView:self.view]; self refers to the button but I wanted to know where I could find out about this "view" property since I looked up UIButton, UIView, NSObject, b...
XAML: What is the functional difference between the following notations? Is there any reason I shouldn't use the first method for properties? <Setter Property="Shape.Stroke" TargetName="circle" Value="#FF3C7FB1"/> <Setter Property="Shape.Stroke" TargetName="arrow"> <Setter.Value> <SolidColorBrush>#FF222222</SolidColorBrush> <...

In C# do properties need to reference private member variables, or can I just declare the properties and use them directly in the class code? If the former is the best practice, then does that rule out using C# property short-hand? I.e. public string FirstName { get; set; } ...

Hi All, I am using c# & .NET 3.5. A vendor gives us an object that has properties of UserVarNbr1, UserVarData1, UserVarNbr2, UserVarData2,... UserVarNbrN, UserVarDataN.
