Static code analysis is one of the error detection methodologies. We are glad that this methodology is becoming more and more popular nowadays. Visual Studio which includes static analysis as one of its many features contributes to this process to a large extent. This feature is easy to try and start using regularly. When one understands one likes static code analysis, we are glad to offer a professional analyzer PVS-Studio for the languages C/C++/C++11.

Add standard code outlining and collapsing capabilities for F# in Visual Studio

Makes skeleton C# or VB classes that will serialize to match an XML Schema.

Blacklight is a UX focused code sharing project. Microsoft has released a bunch of technologies that allow designers and developers to work closely together to make beautiful software. This project is a collection of controls, samples, visual assets and ideas that has been put together by User Experience designers and developers to both show you what the technology is capable of (from a UX point of view), and give you code and samples that you can use in your own projects, completely free of charge (see the License tab above).

NDepend v2.10 comes with interactive code dependencies graph ... here's an idea of what it can do (it's really amazing)

Source Analysis is similar in many ways to Microsoft Code Analysis (specifically FxCop), but there are some important distinctions. FxCop performs its analysis on compiled binaries, while Source Analysis analyzes the source code directly.

Sample code for Visual Studio eXtensibility

Doloto analyzes Ajax app workloads and performs code splitting of large Web apps so they can transfer initially only the part of the client-size JavaScript code needed for application initialization...

This article is in french, sorry for that but I could find no relevant group to share this. Briefly it talks about how programmers (those who actually code) are perceived here in France: As guys dwelling the bottom of the hierarchy, whom only ambition *should be* to become lead progr. or better (architect, project lead, ...). i.e. programmer is not really seen as a career.

A brief translation of the intro.: « Yes, being a programmer when you're 30+ yo in France is worst than being a 40+ yo cashier. Most of the people who spend 90% of their time programming will try to be perceived as R&D engineers, project lead, solution architect, consultant, etc.. The best, when you're a poor contractor of an "software engineering company", in mission for a banque, et that you spend you days coding, is telling people that you are Engineer in finance. »

Some examples with doing color-coding based on calculated columns in Sharepoint Lists.

Abstract: In many environments, multi-threaded code is written in a language that was originally designed without thread support (e.g. C), to which a library of threading primitives was subsequently added. [...] We provide specific arguments that a pure library approach, in which the compiler is designed independently of threading issues, cannot guarantee correctness of the resulting code. [...]

Code developers often have a nightmare when their development environment gets corrupted or some other snags stop them from creating and deploying their application. If such a thing happens at the eleventh hour of code delivery, hell breaks lose. At such testing times how badly as a programmer you would have wished for some alternative.

Cloud computing has started proceeding beyond the hype stage and into the beginning of mainstream adoption. Gartner had included cloud computing in their list of Top 10 Strategic Technologies for 2009. In this roundup, we will review some online Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) which are great examples of cloud programming. These solutions can [nearly] replace your desktop IDEs and code editors.

SharpKit enables web development teams to take advantage of C# and Visual Studio benefits such as compile-time syntax verification, code-completion, XML documentation and refactoring. Many developers prefer this managed code environment versus the expensive and error-prone world of JavaScript programming.

We propose a novel user interface metaphor for code understanding and maintanence based on collections of lightweight, editable fragments called bubbles, which form concurrently visible working sets.

One feature of the CLR that is not available in C# or VB.NET are module initializers (or module constructors). A module initializer is simply a global function which is named .cctor and marked with the attributes SpecialName and RTSpecialName. It is run when a module (each .NET assembly is comprised of one or more modules, typically just one) is loaded for the first time, and is guaranteed to run before any other code in the module runs, before any type initializers, static constructors or any other initialization code.

« CodeMirror is a JavaScript library that can be used to create a relatively pleasant editor interface for code-like content ― computer programs, HTML markup, and similar. »

« It gets me to thinking, what makes beautiful code? In HTML, it comes down to craftsmanship. Let's take a look at some markup written they way markup should be written and see how beautiful it can be. » [ + PNG image ]
