submitted by findmecoolfindmecool(600) 4 years, 6 months ago

Hi, my name is Jim Springfield, and I’m an architect on the Visual C++ team.

As a result, we worked closely with some large ISV customers who were reporting problems with our IDE. These customers typically had solutions with over a hundred projects comprising thousands of files. While I can’t identify them by full name, I read more...

.NET Tip: Converting Strings to Numbers(developer.com)

submitted by scmadminscmadmin(210) 4 years, 7 months ago

First, take a look at the Convert class. The Convert class offers methods to convert to and from every base data type, but for the purpose of this tip I'm only going to use the Convert.ToInt32() method. The method accepts a string parameter and returns an integer. If you pass in a string containing a valid integer value, the method returns an integer as expected. read more...

submitted by scmadminscmadmin(210) 4 years, 7 months ago

A Look At What's Wrong With Objects(codeproject.com)

submitted by scmadminscmadmin(210) 4 years, 7 months ago

When I asked "what's wrong with objects?" I received numerous responses, all of which were excellent and spanned the spectrum of software design from hard core implementation issues to philosophical issues.
