I said it would be easy to build the Output. Following the example of Visual C#, the messages can be filtered by these categories: Build Snippets Debug Refactor I have all the code written for every category. The only thing left is the code that would call it, because so far I only add 2 …

As usual, today I was dealing with one unsolvable problem, namely launching the compiler and capturing the compiler output, because that is where the errors, warnings and messages are. The whole problem was that I should have put the compiler name into ProcessStartInfo.FileName and the arguments into ProcessStartInfo.Arguments, but I merged them together and put …

It did take me a few days of work, which could be broken down like this: Writing my own class for building the compilation commands Testing this class Studying the SharpDevelop command Studying Microsoft.Common.targets The picture shows a program compiled by me..its icon is loaded from EmbeddedResources and the CASD image comes from the default …

..then I can’t work with those files using the classes straight from MS that live in System.Xml..for now I get around it by simply replacing them with the Replace method, but that isn’t 100% reliable, so I should write a method that filters them out before any processing starts..well, I should actually already have such …

The hardest part will be searching within a specific block (a class, a method, a selection), which I’ll have to leave as it is for now, because I don’t have the code yet that would analyze my code and tell me which methods it contains, and so on. …

The program I needed is here. Right after startup it loads the names of all files in the project folder. If you search only in file names, the search is almost instant, because those names are already loaded in memory. If you search in file contents for the first time, all the contents are loaded …

I needed something that would search through my source files and show the results like in the picture – meaning I could sort them asc/desc by number of characters, number of lines, number of empty lines or size in kB. Unfortunately, the program is finished, but even so I will have to make a second …

Yesterday I finished this program for listing folder contents in 3 formats (xhtml, xml, txt). I modeled it on a program called DirLister, which, however, has about half the functionality. I tried to post it here sooner, but I didn’t have the time – yesterday there was Bible study and then youth group, and today …

Slowly, while chatting with other people and feeling half dead, I finally finished that simple converter of just a few lines in 3.5 hours.. The main feature is that you just need to add more conversions and the program can convert from various units to various others (by country, although it still has no way …
