I won’t be using ‘real world’ coding samples here, for obvious reasons, but I’ll lay out a scenario so you can (hopefully!) see how a spot of decompiling/recompiling could come in handy. An issue rolled its way to me that related to a legacy/archaic .Net website utilising a WCF service. First issue, important parts of […]
A staple of TDD (Test Driven Development), although not quite how I’ve implemented it here (as I already have too much code hanging around prior to writing any tests), the humble Unit Test is something I’ve wanted to dedicate a little bit of time to for a while; so here it is. Inclusion of Unit […]
I’m back from my hiatus which encompassed getting married, eating far too much food and drinking wine and beer on the wonderful Adriatic coast. It’s time to get back to some serious coding and perhaps reconsider the longer term plans for this blog. To start us off, I’ve been contemplating pushing a little money into […]
This project has been moving along at a nice, steady pace; here’s a run-down of the progress and first round of decisions I’ve made surrounding the games architecture. I don’t plan on showing every single line of code. Instead, I’ll focus on the core structural work I’ve done and just list out details on a […]
Howdy all, As promised (somewhat belatedly!) I’m going to undertake a small coding project that, hopefully anyway, fits around my current commitments and the incredible weight of jobs I need to do before my impending wedding. The plan, in the long term, will be to revisit Unity 3D as well as to continue the journey […]
An interesting week at work has just been topped off (this was a great little delectable cherry as far as I’m concerned) by a Tech Day, providing developers an opportunity to spend time reviewing content on a myriad of new technologies and coding methodologies. As we all know, the life of a developer can occasionally […]
So with the whole business of getting married, side-line projects, work commitments and the like I’ve not had the time I would have liked to push energy in the blogs direction. Things are, slowly, beginning to fall into place so with any luck I’ll be turning this all around in the near future. I’ve got […]
Working backwards (a little anyway, what developer worth his salt doesn’t wander from task to task in a strange order after all!), and with a view to getting a new FPS project up and running as rubber-stamped in my last post, I decided to head towards something I could achieve. Namely, a tidier NotificationsManager class […]
Good evening all, I hope everyone has been having a super, duper New Year so far. In the process of getting back into the swing of things at work and preparing for my impending big day (well, I say impending, June – Nevertheless I’m sure it’ll come around quickly!) I’ve been spending little pockets of […]
Firstly, for anyone following along, Merry Christmas all! I’m only a handful of posts deep but I can honestly say that I’ve loved doing this. So much so that I, most likely, will plug a bit of money into this in the New Year and try to sort a custom domain/do a few customisations to […]
