In a recent post I pointed out to a tool introduced by Scott. This tool is Code Style Enforcer that is actually a plugin for DxCore and guides you write your codes in standard way. The coding rules in this tool is based on what IDesign has defined. Personally I'm among those programmers which coding standards is so important to them, so this tool seems to be amazing for me but in my first use I found out that many automatic namings that Visual Studio performs for you is not standard!

For example the first alert your will receive from CSE in an ASP.NET code behind source is Page_Load; CSE says that Page_Load has illegal characters and when you fix, it is converted to PageLoad (A Pascal Case name for a protected method).

I think that these naming conventions are same to what Microsoft suggests, so what is the reason of this automatic namings in VS ?

What do you think?

 

Today morning (Tehran local time) Iran's youth volleyball team defeated China and became World Champions. After championship in Asia it's the second honor in a short time for this great team. Read more about this on FIVB site.

 

Scott Hanselman, like past years, introduced a 2007 list of developer and power users tools for Windows. If you are familiar with his cool lists you can enjoy his fresh 2007 version of it and if you didn't hear anything about his list before its time to take a look at it.

In addition to those tools I've ever been using, I downloaded these tools in my first look at list and I will read list exactly later!: Query Express, CollectionGen, Code Style Enforcer, Microsoft BPA, Resource Refactor.

Thanks Scott, you are an angel!

 

Finally a 17 years old guy from Glen Rock, NJ, unlocked Apple iPhone to use in cell phone networks other than AT&T. He wrote full story about his work in his blog. It seems that he is going to make money from this work and try to sell unlocked iPhones to individuals and companies as well. Meanwhile another website called iPhoneSimFree.com claims that they have also unlocked iPhone and this time they say that you can use their unlocked iPhones in any network in any country (Even using a SIM Card)!

I think Apple will officialy react against this issue because they scheduled iPhone to be released outside U.S in 2008 and in current situation you can buy an unlocked iPhone from iPhoneSimFree.com or eBay and use it in your country!

My last blog entry goes back to May 2006!! Yes, I've not updated my blog since then :-( After migrating my SharpLife.NET to new server and upgrading its blog engine (dasBlog) to version 2.0 now I decide to write again.

Many things happened during the past year and talking about all of them is not a good idea and I try to talk about everything in my upcoming posts.

So forgive me for this long absence!
