I spent the past week teaching a Programming with C# course in at our Raleigh, NC office. It was a pretty intense course but and based on the evaluations people were pretty fried at the end from the work load of reading and homework assignments not to mention the continued demands of their day-to-day work. As one attendee put it in the suggestions for improvement section, "Issue SA 2000 Crash Helmets!"
A selection of the tools and registry files that were discussed are available here. Note that I will be updating these as new versions are released.
Note to attendees:
- I posted up the realtime demos here.
- I made some minor changes to the ResourceManagment project so that the tests demonstrated that cleanup was in deed occurring correctly. I was a little concerned because during the demo there didn't seem to be an even match between calls to the constructor and calls to the finalizer.
- The refactoring tool I mentioned was available for Visual Studio.NET can be found at http://www.xtreme-simplicity.net/ (note that this tool is not freeware).
