I’m still somehow hoping that somebody can give me a tip that will work around this issue. I blogged about it recently, and there was a reaction in the form of a pointer at link to the MS Connect site. Of course this doesn’t necessarily lead to any solutions soon… Now I found that my problem is really much worse than it seems to be described anywhere. I have no idea why that is. I just went through the following steps, which seem to reproduce it reliably for me (oh, and I was still running in …


I’m done! I had two presentations at NTK in Slovenia this year, on “dynamic” in C# 4.0, and the opposite end about creating dynamic APIs in C# using the DLR integration in .NET 4.0. It went very well — my rooms were not huge, but they were packed for both talks. I have to say that NTK is a fun conference, and I hope I did my part for a good quality level of technical content. If you were there, thank you for attending! Here are the slides and samples from my two talks:

I remember seeing this issue years ago. I think there were two separate cases where it somehow crept up, one around the scenario of configuring several projects in VS to build into the same output directory, the other to do with the “Visual Studio hosting process”. Maybe I’m wrong about the second. Anyway. Now I’m seeing this issue with some regularity in VS 2010 RTM. There doesn’t seem to be a common denominator to the projects that bring this up — I’ve seen it in large-ish Windows Forms apps …


Here’s a quick note, final notification so to speak: if you want to come to my June trainings for DXperience WinForms or the eXpressApp Framework [LINKS REMOVED], you have until tomorrow (April 30, 2010) to sign up if you want the early bird pricing. Save up to 200 Euros!


This time here are downloads of my slides and samples before the conference even takes place. In fact, they are up here although I’m not going to make it to the conference. It’s the ash… my hopes that my travel plans today would work out came to nothing, and unfortunately Croatia is a bit too far away from Scotland to just quickly drive down — especially considering the state of bookings with trains, hotels, ferries etc everywhere else! Meanwhile, the organizers at WinDays are of course extr …

I blogged a while ago about my trouble with that mobile internet connection through my T-Mobile 3G stick. Now I’ve finally found a chance to try things out, and it turns out I got it to work! I installed a driver package I downloaded a while ago from Huawei, called MobileConnectDriver(4.16.00.00).pkg. After that, I had to unplug the stick, and I also had to make sure the device I was using for the connection was the right one. For some reason I had the devices mixed up — there are two made a …

I found a forum post today about binding an XPO datasource to the DevExpress DXGrid control. I had posted about this on my DX blog before, but that is more than a year ago — things are moving along quickly, and this post is very likely going to be outdated again with 2010.1… but that’s life, isn’t it :-)

So, I thought I should have another look and see what changed and what might be easier. So I started recreating the steps I went …
