One way to organise threads so that they co-operate without tripping over each other is to use a messaging mechanism to communicate between them. John Rivett-Carnac looks at one such implementation of internal application messaging. http://www.developerfusion.com/article/145371/an-internal-application-message-bus-in-vbnet/ http://www.developerfusion.com/article/145371/an-internal-application-message-bus-in-vbnet/ Tue, 31 Jul 2012 08:27:00 GMT John Rivett-Carnac Dan Mohl introduces FSharpx, a community-driven, open source set of extensions for the F# language http://www.developerfusion.com/article/136179/an-introduction-to-fsharpx/ http://www.developerfusion.com/article/136179/an-introduction-to-fsharpx/ Tue, 10 Jan 2012 22:41:00 GMT Dan Mohl Providing both leading-edge functional programming and familiar object-oriented capabilities, F# gives the developer more power to solve problems -- all in fewer lines of code, thanks to succinct syntax. http://www.developerfusion.com/article/122079/intro-to-f/ http://www.developerfusion.com/article/122079/intro-to-f/ Tue, 12 Jul 2011 11:18:00 GMT Ted Neward and Jessica Kerr Windows 7 brings new salvation for .NET developers, and it comes in the form of the Windows 7 API Code Pack for the.NET Framework. http://www.developerfusion.com/article/70531/enhancing-your-applications-for-windows-7/ http://www.developerfusion.com/article/70531/enhancing-your-applications-for-windows-7/ Tue, 17 Nov 2009 14:30:00 GMT Kevin Griffin Is C# in danger of too much change?

There are a ton of new features and enhancements in this release that make it almost a no-brainer to upgrade - I thought I’d take a moment and list my top ten favorites in no particular order. http://www.developerfusion.com/article/7633/introducing-visual-studio-net-2008-top-10-features/ http://www.developerfusion.com/article/7633/introducing-visual-studio-net-2008-top-10-features/ Wed, 26 Mar 2008 20:59:00 GMT Mark Smith We look at the rise of 'patterns' in the developer community, and how they've evolved to help communication between developers and understanding more clearly the intent of a given piece of code. http://www.developerfusion.com/article/7609/why-patterns/ http://www.developerfusion.com/article/7609/why-patterns/ Wed, 19 Mar 2008 20:42:00 GMT Andy Clymer Granville gets down with the CLR, and takes a look at CIL/MSIL - the intermediate language that every .NET language gets compiled to, and has full access to the capabilities of the CLR. http://www.developerfusion.com/article/7112/common-intermediate-language/ http://www.developerfusion.com/article/7112/common-intermediate-language/ Thu, 27 Sep 2007 20:17:00 GMT Granville Barnettt What is the one activity or phase that improves the quality of your application? The answer is an easy one: Testing, and plenty of it. Traditionally, testing is a phase somewhere towards the expected end of the project - when the cost of any code or requirement changes is known to be much higher. Craig looks at how TDD can address this by adopting a more agile approach. http://www.developerfusion.com/article/6875/improving-application-quality-using-testdriven-development-tdd/ http://www.developerfusion.com/article/6875/improving-application-quality-using-testdriven-development-tdd/ Mon, 02 Jul 2007 21:29:00 GMT Craig Murphy In this second part of a two-part series, you will learn about application security issues related to authentication and authorization, as well as five vulnerabilities commonly found in ASP.NET web-based applications. Additionally, find out how to keep configuration files from being unintentionally modified by uninformed programmers or administrators, as well as why it is critical to never rely on default setting values. http://www.developerfusion.com/article/6745/top-10-application-security-vulnerabilities-in-webconfig-files-part-two/ http://www.developerfusion.com/article/6745/top-10-application-security-vulnerabilities-in-webconfig-files-part-two/ Sun, 10 Jun 2007 11:43:00 GMT Bryan Sullivan In part one of this two part article, you will learn about five of the top ten “worst offenders” of misconfigurations of application security that can cause overall problems for ASP.NET Web-based applications.
