DLL Hell. Enough said, well maybe not. Before .NET every installation of a new version of a program or the installation of any program was a gamble. There was always a risk that a necessary component required to run the new version would overwrite a component which is used by another causing the old program […]
Read More →I wanted to create an interface; however one of the methods I wanted to implement in it had a class as a parameter. I thought about it and realized that be doing so I would be tightly binding my interface to a specific class. I didn’t think that was good practice because interfaces need to […]
Read More →There is a pretty basic reason why this error happens. However, until you find the solution, it is a big deal. I was creating a simple base class like the below which I planned on extending in another class. public class TreeViewModel : INotifyPropertyChanged { TreeViewSelector() { } } However, when I tried to […]

I got trolled once because of the way my website looked. I must admit, it did age a bit, but at the time I built it, using ADO.NET, ASP.NET Webforms (ASPX) and Master Pages, it was a pretty cool and sophisticated website for it’s time. Here is a tribute to my old C# blog look […]

Lucene.Net.Store..Directory directory = Lucene.Net.Store.FSDirectory .Open(new DirectoryInfo(textBoxSearchIndex.Text)); Lucene.Net.Analysis.Analyzer analyzer = new Lucene.Net.Analysis.Standard .StandardAnalyzer(LuceneUtil.Version.LUCENE_29); Lucene.Net.Search.Searcher searcher = new Lucene.Net.Search .IndexSearcher(LuceneIndex.IndexReader .Open(directory, true)); Lucene.Net.Search.Query query = new Lucene.Net.QueryParsers .QueryParser(LuceneUtil.Version.LUCENE_29, “contents”, analyzer) .Parse(textBoxSearch.Text); Lucene.Net.Search.Hits hits = […]

On one of my projects I had to provide treeview selection functionality. I searched the internet and pulled everything I could into a this single resource. I wasn’t able to find 1 post that provided all the details and source code to do what I needed. Now there is one and if you find it, […]
Read More →The String class in .Net has many capabilities. Below is a list of some string methods I use frequently in my development projects. Even when I have completed this list, I am sure it will over cover 5% of the capabilities within the String class. After reading this, I suggest you look over the MSDN […]

Because it was there and because I could, well maybe not. It actually wasn’t very difficult because these instructions worked perfectly. Following them worked without a hitch, almost. There are few small hiccups but we made it through without much problem. It was rather time consuming to re-image all those disks for the 8 nodes. […]
