How to: Execute (another's class) private methods
Is also very useful to loop through the internal controls, for example I use some code to hide the Status bar of the crystal report viewer and to change some values in winforms controls =) of course that nothing of this cant be posible without REFLECTOR. Best Regards

Microsoft go for MONO ? What's the truth behind .NET source release ?
posted by marcos(2779) 4 years, 7 months ago 0
LoL Did you read the page: "If you have looked at Microsoft’s implementation of .NET or their shared source code, you will not be able to contribute to Mono. " How do you think that an OpenSource project can exist without contributors ? Best Regards
I'm glad to hear that =) I just post that story because was the first thing to come to my mind after what ups with TestDriven.Net and the way with MS sue anyone, and thinking in the Balmer words about Linux that breaks all patents, or thinking in the office ribbon. Maybe I'm a bit paranoid, but MS don't help me to be other way until today, so, maybe I will keep thinking in the counterpart. BTW I agree that is a very very cool thing !! we stepping in into .NET frameworks is simply AWESOME !! and maybe some bugs in the framework can be fixed faster with this. Miguel de Icasa has good words for it too and expose some other reasons for that http://tirania.org/blog/archive/2007/Oct-03.html Best Regards
Don't look at the sourcecode of .NET licensed as 'Reference license"
Some other link that talk about the problems of open source whit that @JudahGabriel "But let's be practical here -- has Microsoft ever sued anyone for breaking the EULA by using Reflector? Come on. Likewise, MS isn't going to sue if you create a class that looks a lot like the patented XYZ class." You must be kidding did you read the history of TestDriven.NET ??? Microsoft is killing that project, sued the creator for use "reverse engineer" (aka reflector) http://weblogs.asp.net/nunitaddin/archive/2007/07/06/microsoft-amp-testdriven-net.aspx Tha patents of the Ribbon are a joke too, MS come to an agreement with Novel before sue them and Balmer said all the time that Linux is evil and break all her patents !!! That's the real world, of course that some things are good, but have a lot of consequences, as an Open Source developer, and I feel that is not good at all, every one said that would be great to step into ASP.NET code, thanks to God I don't use ASP.NET for web development and for beginners will be really a pain neck to step into that code, jumping from one method to other. Lets be real, this is useful for advance developers, the beginners will not learn too much from the code, like Frans said, for the companies is better to buy a book to them instead of the productive hours that them will waste watching the MS code. @w3stfa11 Why do you think that we are creating FUD ?? We are simple developers, Frans depends on .NET for their work, this is about to don't believe anything that MS said and don't forget the last legal actions of MS. Best Regards
@crpietschmann About the TestDriven.net problem if you look at these mails http://www.mutantdesign.co.uk/downloads/ExpressEmails1.html Jamie's Mail: ..."Is there any chance you could let me know which specific clause in the licence I was contravening? "... Jason Weber's mail: ..."Since I'm not a lawyer I shouldn't comment on the license. However if you read the Express SKU EULA you'll see verbiage around REVERSE ENGINEERING,"... About to learn from the code, there is today wonderful FREE places to learn from code: CodeProject SourceForge CodePlex all the MONO implementation, ie. I learn with QBasic and VB3 like you =) what a funny days, but I didn't have Internet at that time...at least here in Argentina LoL Ok ok I will stop to talk, maybe it is better for all, to let MS decide from us at any time and for anything. Is funny to see (and I'm not talking about u) that is saying that this is great, later said: why NDoc developer quit, or why NAnt takes too long for .NET 2.0 support, like some in the Frans's post said, maybe WE the .NET are the ones that don't get the OSS idea. I was a lot of time trying to be constructive with MS, I post a lot of suggestions to help open source projects in MS blogs or things like availability of fixes, but when I see something bad I try to said it loud to let others think in the other side. I said all this as OpenSource developer. I used spend hundred and hundred of hours of my life for the community so I have the right to said that. Best Regards Marcos www.filehelpers.com
