My girlfriend asked me if there was a tool (actually, an IDE) that would let her create her GUI visually and edit functions associated with GUI-related events with little effort. For example, she wants to double-click a button she just created and immediately see (and edit) the code associated with that button's on-click event. I believ...

Examples of startup data: a table that lists all the countries in the world or a table that lists a bunch of colors that will be used to populate a color palette. I've been using a system where ...

Currently I use GDI++ that smoothes the display fonts making them look very similar to text rendered in Safari browser for Windows (as fa...

I just discovered the beauty of Visual Studio's automatic XSD schema generation.* Is there an easy way to have VS automatically attach files with particular names to existing XSD schema? So if I have myconfig.xml files scattered throughout a project (or several projects) I would want them to always validate against myconfig.xsd, rather...

If I ...
