Thoughts from a solution architect, technologist and Christian citizen.
Visual SOS is both an executable and extension for Visual Studio that leverages the debugger engine available in Windows in conjunction with SOS debugging extension. It’s similar to having Windbg embedded into Visual Studio but in a much simpler way, because it exposes some of the most commonly used commands just a click away. Visual […]
Continue ReadingHi Community, It’s been almost 3 months since Microsoft announced their “Visual C++ for Linux Development” extension. There is a very concise and clear article here. This extension allows developers to target and deploy to *Nix systems (even to a Raspberry Pi) using Visual C++. Developers can even set breakpoints and debug remote code. In […]
Continue ReadingHi Community, Today’s post is about an IoC library I wrote back in 2013. I called it “LightIoc” because it’s self-contained in a single assembly file. Over the years I have used a few IoC libraries some of them are easy to use, others a bit bulkier or with more dependant assemblies but for this […]
Continue ReadingHi Community, This post is about how to check whether the binary representation of a byte is a palindrome. I’ve recently received an email by a fellow developer requesting some help with this, and after having done a bit of research I couldn’t find any good example written in C#, so I decided to do […]
Continue ReadingHi community, it has been a very busy start of the year for me, but here I am as usual sharing with you information that you might find useful. Today’s post is about the internals of a couple new features available in C# 6. The new version of the language introduces the following features and […]
Continue ReadingNDepend 6.0 was released a few months ago, and due to my workload I have been unable to blog about it until now. This version contains a ton of new features.

Continue ReadingHi Community, I’ve just come back to the office after rolling off from an engagement, so this week while being back to the bench I’ve been practicing and studying some Qt for my upcoming certification, doing a few things around Raspberry Pi + Kinect + OpenKinect on Raspbian but at the same time I also […]
Continue ReadingHi Community, Windows 10 and Visual Studio 2015 were successfully launched a few days ago, and with them a bunch of new features were introduced, being Universal Windows Apps one of the most exciting and expected features; so what I’ve done is to compile a table that contains links to useful resources and even offers […]
Continue ReadingFileSystems are the storage backbone for any computer system, in Today’s operating systems most of them provide a common functionality set like journaling, security and metadata among others. In my humble opinion, metadata is one of the most important ones, reason being is that they can tell users about the contents of the file without […]
Continue ReadingOne of the things I love about unit testing (besides all of the well-known benefits) is the ability to test code without writing a tester or test harness application, but I can pretty much leverage what Microsoft have already built for us. Image below depicts an unit test I’ve written for this JNI .NET bridge or […]
