Recursive Ruby Script to replace File/Directory Names & File Contents(dannydouglass.com)

submitted by DannyDouglass(1260) 1 year, 3 months ago

Over this past weekend I began templating a project structure that we use at my day/evening/night job to allow developers to simply execute a script and provide a few parameters to initialize a new development project (including build script, fxcop analysis, unit testing, visual studio projects, etc.). I didn’t think this would take that long despite being relatively new to the Ruby world. Oddly enough, I had trouble finding similar examples on the interwebs – even StackOverflow didn’t have the answer! The horror, the horror! No matter, I’m a developer after all and should be, better be capable of handling this simple script. I decided to start simple and just use the directory global searching method to recursively get everything within my project template’s directory: read more...

Regex Hero can now translate a regular expression into English(blog.regexhero.net)

submitted by BucketSoft(324) 1 year, 5 months ago

Regular expressions are one of those things that many programmers dabble with enough to understand the concept, but not enough to memorize the syntax. Code completion is a big step towards making things easier. Beyond that, sometimes an explanation written out in English is just what you need. read more...

Microsoft Visual Studio - From Past to Present(www.ironshay.com)

Recently I‘ve been working at a client site where they are using Visual Studio 2005 for their main project.

Simplify Using Xml Data with AutoMapper and Linq-To-Xml(dannydouglass.com)

submitted by DannyDouglass(1260) 1 year, 6 months ago

I recently ran into a scenario at work that required manually consuming several SOAP web services, which I’m sure you can imagine was rather monotonous. A co-worker (Seth Carney) and I tried a few different approaches, but we finally settled on a solution that simplified consumption of the xml and ultimately made the code more testable. That solution centered around leveraging AutoMapper, an open source object-object mapping tool, to create a link between the XElements returned in the SOAP messages and custom contracts we created – in a reusable manner. I put together a quick demo that shows how you could use the same approach to consume and display the Twitter Public Timeline (using the API’s Xml response type). read more...

A Better Hg Command Line Interface: Console2 + PowerShell + Posh-Hg(dannydouglass.com)

submitted by DannyDouglass(1260) 1 year, 6 months ago

Moving from Subversion to Mercurial was more than a change from a centralized version control system to a distributed solution. I also found myself moving away from the explorer integration provided by the Tortoise products to the command line for the execution of my hg commands. This approach is dramatically faster once you get used to the syntax, which really only takes a hot minute. Certain features in TortoiseHg still provide visual advantages that I find useful, such as the visual repository log. During an Agile.Net Bootcamp with Jimmy Bogard he showed us an collection of tools he utilizes to provide an improved Mercurial command line experience. The final product is a more descriptive prompt that displays branch information, as well as the number and types of changes made since your last commit… read more...
