15 Seconds : Creating a Data Access Layer in .NET - Part 2 - 1 views

  • This means the Primary Key will not contain the actual auto-increment from the database until the DataSet is updated. Therefore, the auto-increment value is relative to the DataSet only. For this reason, I have found it wise to set the AutoIncrementSeed to 0 and the AutoIncrementStep to -1.

Microsoft Command Line Standard - 0 views

  • our goal is to present a consistent, composable command line user experience. Achieving that allows a user to learn a core set of concepts (syntax, naming, behaviors, etc) and then be able to translate that knowledge into working with a large set of commands. Those commands should be able to output standardized streams of data in a standardized format to allow easy composition without the burden of parsing streams of output text.

Policy Injection App Block - Behind the Scenes - 0 views

  • We use an interception mechanism to get in the way of calls going to that member, collect a list of policies that apply using a matching rules mechanism, run the chain of handlers specified by those policies in a chain of responsibility and at the other end dispatch the call to the target. Once the target is done - successfully or with exceptions - the stack unwinds, returning through each handler and finally back to the caller.

      So we can only advise "before"
  •  
    Very good read (particularly their evaluation of weaving methods).

    Although as a result their "Policy Injection" application block isn't as powerful as most of the straight-up AOP toolkits out there, it does have a *huge* upside: not only is the code produced by this supportable by Microsoft Product Support, it's now officially part of the Patterns and Practices recommendations!

    The down side is that the only injectable objects are ones created through a "Factory" method (you can't just use the *new* constructor) this brings some performance hits ... but then, you get the ability to separate concerns and apply policies and even business rules after the fact!

altnetconf - Scott Guthrie announces ASP.NET MVC framework at Alt.Net Conf - Jeffrey Pa... - 0 views

  • Provide a hook for other view engines from MonoRail, etc
  • The default URL scheme will look something like this: /<RouteName>/<Action>/<Param1>/<Param2>
  • MonoRail is more than just the MVC part.  I wouldn't be surprised if MonoRail were refactored to take advantage of the ASP.NET MVC HttpHandler just as a means to reduce the codebase a bit.

html2wiki.pm - Convert HTML text to wiki markup - live preview - 0 views

  •  
    A Perl Module to convert HTML to any of the many pseudo-markups in use by wiki's and blogs, including Textile (see "Confluence") and Markdown, MediaWiki, UseMod, SnipSnap, MoinMoin, etc.
  •  
    At first I thought this could be the "back" part of TIM, but after trying it out on even simple example text, I'm a bit dissapointed. The nested lists, images, and URLs seem broken (although the links at least, work in Confluence).

    The worst problems are that it has no sense of %{style} span% or footnotes, and no concept AT ALL of tables.  It would be nice to at least get the {style} -- and therefore the spans -- working.

MIT's Introduction to Algorithms, Lectures 22 and 23: Cache Oblivious Algorithms - good... - 0 views

  • Cache-oblivious algorithms should not be confused with cache-aware algorithms. Cache-aware algorithms and data structures explicitly depend on various hardware configuration parameters, such as the cache size. Cache-oblivious algorithms do not depend on any hardware parameters.
  • An example of cache-aware (not cache-oblivious) data structure is a B-Tree that has the explicit parameter B, the size of a node. The main disadvantage of cache-aware algorithms is that they are based on the knowledge of the memory structure and size, which makes it difficult to move implementations from one architecture to another.
  •  
    « Cache-oblivious algorithms take into account something that has been ignored in all the lectures so far, particularly, the multilevel memory hierarchy of modern computers. Retrieving items from various levels of memory and cache make up a dominant factor of running time, so for speed it is crucial to minimize these costs. The main idea of cache-oblivious algorithms is to achieve optimal use of caches on all levels of a memory hierarchy without knowledge of their size. »

You can always do less [2010-01-14] - (37signals) - 3 views

  • The hardest part about making good software that ships on time is knowing what and when to sacrifice.
  • We mistake what we said we’ll do with what must be done.
  • you can always do less.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • What stops most people from doing less is the fear of failure. The misconception that if you don’t get it all done, the rest is worth nothing at all.
  • For every 1 day estimates of a task, there’s a simpler version of that you can do in 3 hours, and an even simpler still you can do in 30 minutes.

[Q&A] BPMN's advantages over other modeling methods ? - BPM Research Forums, 2006-08-13 - 1 views

  • On the other hand, BPMN has been designed with the aim of being a notation for high-level modeling.
  • BPMN models are not intended to be directly executed. They need to be refined (e.g. into BPEL processes) prior to execution.
  • At the most, BPMN might be used to generate "templates of BPEL code" that developers will have to refine to obtain a running implementation.
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • In fact, one could safely bet that a lot of people will define BPMN models for the pure purpose of documenting business processes, and not for the purpose of developing software. Many BPMN models will never be executed or lead to any piece of software. They'll just be used as part of a methodology for business improvement.
