One of the pain points in having IronRuby access SharePoint classes is that you'll have to help IronRuby find the appropriate assemblies. IronRuby (at least with the 0.9.0 version) has an IronRuby folder underneath the lib folder in its main directory tree which you can populate with a "shortcut"...

Yesterday I was banging my head against a (virtual) wall because of frustration trying to debug a WF -based workflow for SharePoint when I thought of a cool idea: why not use IronRuby and its REPL console to explore the SharePoint object model ? That would be cool and it would eliminate the need for...

This thing is still such a pain in the %#2. Or maybe I just don't have enough UI designing experience. I had to make the UI flexible enough to fit on different screen resolutions , different font sizes and flexible enough even on form resize . I can't describe how I did it exactly but the major...

Ok, some of you might find it bad that I'm triyng to relate Eclipse with Visual Studio too much, feature to feature. But I can't help it, having used Eclipse for the past 3 years. So I was trying to find a functionality like " Open Resource " (CTRL + SHIFT + R) in Eclipse. I've...

Confessions of an asp.net developer. 1. I’m just as lazy as the next developer, I want to see something up and running in the first 15 minutes of development. I like code snippets. 2. I like using tables. 3. My css tends to be unorganized and messy. I’m still waiting for an editor than will...

I had a lot of things to blog during the past 3 months but I just couldn't get myself to write any of them online. Well, since I've been using the Visual Studio.Net immediate window a lot lately so I thought it would be useful for fellow eclipse users to know that an equivalent tool exist in...

I will be speaking about IronRuby in tomorrow's Community Technology Update event in Singapore. Good thing that IronRuby 0.5.0 was released yesterday ; that gave me enough time to adjust my presentation to take the new version into account. Nothing's worse than speaking about something that's...

I failed to mention in my previous post that db4o also supports LINQ for executing queries against an object database. In order to avail of this feature, a reference should be added to the Db4objects.Db4o.Linq.dll and you need to specify " using Db4objects.Db4o.Linq; " in your code. Our previous...

For the longest time I have been intrigued by object database management systems ( ODBMS ) and I have been wanting to try it out. Of course there are the usual excuses -- I'm busy, I've got no time, I've got so many other projects, etc. Recently, my wife decided to restart her business, this...

I was working on a MsScriptControl based ETL project. One of its requirements is to be able to use vbscript functions in the transformations it performs. It is fairly easy to hard-code functions then register them during start-up all at the expense of maintainability. I guess the better side of me prevailed...
