[SlimDX] and VS 2010 Beta 2 I've been using SlimDX in beta 2 for a few days now. VizOne is right about supportedRuntime. Specifically, you can add a .config file for your app as follows: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <configuration> <startup u...

Threading: One producer - Many consumers : How to Synchronize ? I suppose it depends somewhat on your scenario. In my case, targetting the 360 with XNA, I chose to attempt a lockless task pool for maximum possible utilization of all the cores. The interface is pretty standard, with the task component expo...

[C#] Creating a debug option "tree"? As others have mentioned, System.Reflection will provide you with the facilities you need to programmatically manipulate arbitrary types at runtime; the hardest part being constructing the actual UI for it on the 360, since XNA provides none out...

.Net read only collections I've been frustrated by this somewhat as well, in that it feels unclean to have exposed methods that modify a collection that really shouldn't be modified, but over time I've accepted ReadOnlyCollection as adequate. For me, it helps to remember th...

BindingMode.OneWayToSource resetting the target value? Coincidentally enough, I've just been confronted with this in my app less than a day after investigating. Unfortunately, in my case, I absolutely have to use OneWayToSource, since the source is not a dependency object. Here's a clevar hack that I...

BindingMode.OneWayToSource resetting the target value? I'm still in the process of learning WPF myself, so I was curious and decided to play around with this. Here's what I think is happening: Before the binding is set, the String dependency property just has a simple backing field for the o2 instance...

Dream Build Play 2009 Quote:Original post by Andrew Russell Reading the rules (and I'm not sure I've ready them correctly - it's an awful legalese TOS-style document), it looks like you can use any game you've made. Providing you've not tried to get it onto Xbo...

Dream Build Play 2009 I'm gonna try for it. The odds are admittedly slim, but I see it as a good motivator, and a solid deadline, which is something that's usually lacking in hobby projects. I'm certainly no artist, so instead I'm gunning more for the technical origina...

Battlestar Galatica finale (spoilers) First the mundane. I was totally stoked about season 4.5 until after 417 (the scene where starbuck remembers watchtower is one of the best scenes I've ever seen in anything ever). I felt it started to stall out before the finale and I was seriou...

Has anyone here use GOLD parser? A couple years back we used GPB to write a javascript grammar for our .NET MSIL to javascript translator/decompiler project; as I recall it worked pretty well. Most of the issues were wrestling with the grammar itself rather than the program....
