About coding and whatnot
Recently I was asked at work for quick review of small project. It was created (or updated) in newest version of Visual Studio – 2012. I don’t have installed VS 2012.
I could install it, yes, but it would be just waste of time since browsing through code in that project took me only few hours.
So I decided to try to open that in VS 2010. Continue reading “Curious Case of Visual Studio project compatibility.”
While writing an application for my Masters degree diploma, I wrote a simple application that was using COM Matlab server. I have found it hard to use it mainly due to lack of documentation, which is really basic with only few code examples for C#. I guess writing programs that use Matlab for calculating is not encouraged by MathWorks, you would became competition that way 🙂 Nonetheless, I accomplished why I was required to do, so I decided to share this with the rest of the world.

Yesterday I was writing about creating server controls in separate assembly. Today I will cover more complicated example then simple “Hello World!” control. My goal was to create text box that will take handler method to run when validation event will be triggered, and when validation fail will show appropriate message. Text box with builtin validation would be nice, since you always should validate user input, right? But lets start creating our control. Continue reading “Server controls in separete assembly part 2”
In my project I wanted to create text box control with builtin configurable validation. ASP.NET definition in .aspx or .ascx file would get validation function by name. But I do not wanted to create just .ascx file with text box. I could not then reuse that control in other projects and it certainly would be nice, right? Creating such server control from code is not hard, but maintainability of HTML code in C# (it cannot be done other way) is not good. It’s pain really. Why Microsoft would create way to automatically create C# code from .ascx, .aspx files is mystery for me. Continue reading “Server controls in separate assembly”
Yesterday I wrote about issue with Ajax postbacks in application I am working currently. Problem was with buttons that was triggering UpdatePanels to update asynchronously. After adding loading indicator I wanted to add error handling at client side. Continue reading “Handling Ajax errors in ASP.NET”
