Taking Ninject to new places
When I started looking at Ninject I was pretty impressed by how nice the code looks and how well the project has been put together. Nate had been profiling the project yesterday and it performs slightly better than its cousin from the Castle framework but that difference is almost negligible.
However I recommend you download the Ninject framework and just look at its codebase because it may teach you some new tricks or give you some new insights. The rest of this post will explain a small MVP f...
Ninject (Part 2): Customizing your infrastructure for logging
Yesterday we had a little introduction to Ninject. Today I'd like to examine what's involved in getting some AOP style logging going for your application. I find that there are only very few places where I'm logging something that steps out of the bounds of being called at the end of the method when things succeed. I'm generally more interested in what happens when things go wrong and that's when I log the exception. In some cases I'll be interested in the actual parameters. The code I'm ...
Ninject: Getting all the stuff you’ll need
I have a new project I started and I could reevaluate my toolset :) I decided to take a closer look at Ninject, Moq and NSpecify. Moq has been talked about enough I think, a really nice way of mocking and I will definitely be using more of it. My original plan was to write one big blog post.. but it is going to be far too long, so I'm breaking it up in smaller bite size pieces. What I did was download the code, have it rest on my pc for about a week, updated again when I really got round ...
Minimal IronRuby/silverlight examples online
I just posted the first post in my series on getting started with Silverlight and IronRuby on the rubydoes.net website You can read more about it here: http://rubydoes.net/2008/04/14/silverlight-minimal-examples/...
Started blogging on rubydoes.net
I just put my first post on http://rubydoes.net I'm starting a series there on using Silverlight and IronRuby to develop applications. This post is an introduction and announcement of my series on the topic. I'm porting the IronPython examples from Michael Foord to IronRuby and will do a new example every day of this week. See you there :) UPDATE: I didn't make it clear but this blog will still be active. Just most of my IronRuby stuff will go on rubydoes.net Technorati Tags: r...
Updated my lightspeed model generator
This week I could start a project that has a database that goes somewhat beyond a blog. This seemed to me like the best way to improve my model generator that I built earlier And as expected I needed to tweak it a little so that it would work properly, and I added a feature. Seen as there are 2 files generated for an entity if you add a private field that exists in the database there then the generator will skip it so that you can add more attributes than the ones this script generates for you...
An IronRuby Digg Client
Scott Guthrie has a series of tutorials on how to consume the Digg API with Silverlight and C#. I wanted to know if I could convert that tutorial to IronRuby. What I came up has the same end result but due to the fact that IronRuby and its Silverlight implementation isn't complete yet I can't mimic the structure of that tutorial yet. I couldn't yet figure out how to load external xaml files so I put all the xaml in one file. I have one C# file that resides in the lib folder, this file is calle...
