C# anticelebrities – Part 1 – The ?? operator
I decided to start a new series of posts on the anticelebrities operators / keywords of C#,  being anticelebrity for a keyword / operator means that it’s not widely used by programmers. Some may say that main purpose of the members in the anticelebrity club is to be used in tricky interview questions, I hope that I will give them a push towards celebritness by explaining how to use them, at the worst case you will have some geek trivia questions for your next coffee break.   The ?? operator...

Embedded resources in XSL files
If you ever worked with embedded resources you probably know the required steps for embedding resources: Setting the build action to “Embedded Resource” in the file properties. Adding a web resource attribute with the file (best practice is to add this line in the AssemblyInfo.cs file) the first parameter is the default project namespace + the filename and the second parameter is the mime-type: [assembly: WebResource( "Namespace.Filename.gif" , "image/gif" )] The WebResource attribute...

If the...

SharePoint - Internal field names in Hebrew
A field (sometimes called a column) in SharePoint - represented in the object model by the SPField class, has two main properties which are used to identify it in code, the Title property and the InternalName property, the reason for the duplication is that the Title property can be changed from the GUI or translated into other languages, therefore if we want to write code which can be used without recompiling after every field name change in the GUI or recompiling for different languages we will...

How to create an application in IIS6 using C#
Before the IIS7 era, we had no API for directly manipulating IIS, but we still needed to perform some actions like creating a virtual directory or an application (mostly used in installations). Creating an application using the IIS GUI is done in the following way:   Creating it in code is a more complex task which is dived into 3 parts: 1. Finding the website in the IIS which we want to create the application underneath: /// <summary> /// This function looks for the path of a web site...
