Advanced Debugging in Visual Studio - CodeProject®

Image via Wikipedia

Introduction to Article by Pankaj Chamria

Many of us developers do not look beyond the basic F9, F10, F11, F5 and Watch windows while debugging in Visual Studio. Due to this we end up wasting hours debugging an issue or simulating a condition which ideally could have been achieved in a matter of minutes if we utilized the rich debugging features available out of the box in Visual Studio.

Advanced debugging tips are scattered all over the web but I thought that a consolidated list would be very useful for developers to embrace and start using the techniques.

Animations in HTML5 - CodeProject®

Introduction to Article by Florian Rappl

HTML5 is becoming more and more popular. With the increasing popularity of mobile devices such as tablets and smartphones, the need for alternatives to the popular Flash plugin from Adobe has also been growing. Just recently, Adobe announced that Flash will no longer be supported for mobile devices. This means that Adobe itself will focus on HTML5 as a key technology for those devices - and desktop systems sooner or later.
One disadvantage of HTML was the lack of multimedia techniques. In HTML, you could not display a video or draw on the screen. With HTML5, new elements such as  and have been introduced. Those elements give developers the possibility to use multimedia technology in "native" HTML, just by writing some JavaScript in combination with HTML. A basic action that should be provided by multimedia technologies is animation. In HTML5, there are some ways to create such actions.
In this article, I will only compare the new   element with the upcoming CSS3 animation technique. Other possibilities would include the creation and animation of DOM elements or SVG elements. Those possibilities will not be included in this discussion. It should be noted from the beginning that the canvas-technology is supported in the current releases of all major browsers, while CSS3 animations are only possible in the latest editions of Firefox and Chrome. The next IE will also provide CSS3 animations.

Home Automation with Netduino and Kinect - CodeProject®

Introduction to article

Home automation has been an interest of mine for a long time. There is a bunch of bad technology in the marketplace and the products are too expensive so I decided to build my own. I started out with the Arduino microcontroller which was really fun but the code quickly became hard to maintain because it was not object oriented. Additionally it could not do multithreading or real debugging with breakpoints and such. I refactored the code for C# and the .NET Micro Framework. I choose the netduino plus, http://www.netduino.com/netduinoplus/specs.htm, for the microcontroller which has a built in Ethernet adapter for network communication.

File Inventory - A Hybrid Version Control System - CodeProject®

Introduction to Article

Occasionally, I need to know the files in a directory have been added or removed recently. For example, I want to know if an image file has been deleted or added in picture directory. It is similar to the functionalities of Version Control System without the cumbersome of setup, check-in, check-out and separate storage; something simple and easy to use. Window OS does not include such a tool and I can not find anywhere mentioned.
Arms with knowledge of nowadays programming technology and Google Search, it seems not too difficult to write one.
In this article, I will show how I:

• Convert idea into design
• Write an Inventory class to inventory files
• Save persistent data to SQLite database
• Call to a .bat which runs different sql scripts each time
• Discuss some future enhancement and variety to design

Introduction to Article

I made a cute flash movie of an elephant ages ago. Among other things, the eyes of the elephant followed the cursor. Unfortunately subsequent flash security updates broke the functionality (if you want mouse move events outside the flash control, you need special permissions). So, I decided to convert it to HTML5. To see the result in action you need to go to the origonal blog entry.
