The Morning Brew

Some technical problems with my ADSL line this morning has resulted in a smaller than usual Morning Brew this morning. Tomorrow’s edition may be larger as a result.

Information

• Challenge: What is wrong with this code – Ayende has posed up a piece of broken code, and is asking for people to guess what si wrong with it. Only a few guesses so far, I look forward to seeing what people come up with.
• Define Recursion – See Recursion – Matthew Podwysocki takes on Scott Hanselman’s Back To Basics theme, and looks at recursion – with examples in C# and F#
• Composite Application Guidance – What is it? – Glenn Block posts up an overview of the Composite Application Guidance (Prism) which gives a good summary of what the project is all about.
• Back to Basics – This is not the object you’re looking…wait, oh, it is the object – Scott Hanselman continues his back to basics series with a look at downcasting and the WebBrowser control.
• How to Programmatically tell if an IIS AppPool is 32-bit or 64-bit – Scott Hanselman shows how you can see which app pools are 32 or 64 bit – very useful when trouble shooting strange IIS COM issues.
• ASP.NET Inline Tags – A nice reminder of the ASP.NET inline tags – I suspect everyone will know the most common, however the ones like the serverside comment are less well known.
• Event Chain – Marc Clifton looks at creating a multicast delegate that can be stop calling event handler delegates at the command of one of the delegates.

Humour

• Array Indices: Start from 0 or 1? – One of the famous debates.
