Thanks I was wasn't aware of this. This was really helpful!
However, i want to write a professional document (not a lengthy one--where you could quickly look at and get a good understading of the process) that would explain the entire process of this application. What to do if known errors occur? Which tables and stored procedures are involved, etc.
What you told me would help me to exactly pinpoint which class i need to modify.
I've seen ppl who will write apps and then few months later they might forget the details of the process. unless they look at the code and try to figure out the process and what to do if a process fails, etc, which is time consuming.
I hope I am clear..

So you have no documentation but you have a finished product?  So you never documented the analysis or even worse never did the analysis? So how did you know what the software is supposed to do?

I assume he used what my old project manager called the JFDI methodology (or Just errmm Flipping Do It).

Yeah, that's also known as the Software Rocks Development Process.

I'm guessing this is the correct forum for this question, but if I guessed wrong I appologise in advance.
I'm looking for somebody who is willing to help me draw a few simple animations. I'm currently coding a tile based game, the board consists of 300 or so tiles with the object being to eliminate all tiles until the board is clear. Each tile is a simple 30x30 sprite. When a tile is eliminated, rather than just have it dissapear, I would like it to dissapear in a puff of smoke. All of my attempts so far have been plain ugly.
If anybody is willing to help with this I would be forever grateful.

WalderMort - sorry, but this board is for application design and architecture, and not graphics design. For graphics, you may want to consider contacting a local designer (and pay them I'm afraid).

It doesn't matter. After hours of begging google, she finaly handed me an animated gif that was close to what I wanted. A few tweaks here and there and I have it complete.
On another note, perhaps this particular board should accomodate graphic design aswell as application design. All develeopers will use graphics in one form or another, whether it be an icon or a company logo. I would also bet that many developers, like myself, need a nudge in the right direction when these graphics come into play.

Excellent.

Be fair - I think you should say that a lot of developers are rubbish when it comes to graphics. Ironically, when you consider my deep interest in 3D animation packages and painting, I outsource all of my graphic development to qualified designers.
But - excellent suggestion for the graphics - perhaps there should be a dedicated forum. One for the suggestions board I think.

Hi Folks,
can anyone suggest me which is the best book for learning design patterns?
i am a intermediete developer in C# , .Net technologies,
please guide me.

C# Design Patterns by James W. Cooper
ISBN: 0-201-84453-2
|
|
|
|
|
Design Patterns
of Gamma, Helm, Johnson, Vlissidea
I don't know if it is the best, but it's certainly authoritative.
Design patterns are very well explained, but, unfortunately, samples are given using only C++ and Smalltalk.
Hope that helps.

The book I posted above is pretty much the same as the GoF book but with C# code examples

That's good. Anyway it seems not highly appreciated by customers [^]

Interesting, while I agree with the comments made on Amazon I still hold that book in pretty high regard. I ignored the first 100 pages as I was already very well versed in C# when I got it and so I simply use it sometimes as a reference book when using Design Patterns in my code.

Yeah, 'case the pretty things are the patterns themselves not the languages used.

I think you must already have a good knowledge of at least one of the languages used, because you have to clearly understand the samples in order to fully appreciate the pattern itself.

try the book "head first design pattern"...

Definately head first design patterns, quick and easy to pick up and learn from. Great prequel to more comprehensive books. Beware though, they prefer java as language of choice.

I've read a portion of the book and it has been great so far. Many fellow developers in my office rave about it too. All examples are in Java but that hasn't bothered any of us.
We are a purely MS shop that focuses almost exclusively on C# development (.Net 2003 and 2005) with some older code in C++ and some pourly written apps in VB6.

Hello,
I'm developing an application to capture and copy POP3 email then send
it to an email server. I need to do this before the traffic gets to the
user's email client application. In my investigation so far, it looks like my
options are to do this at the Winsock layer (with potential performance
implications), or in a kernel mode NDIS driver. I'm leaning to the latter
solution (perhaps by utilizing WinPcap).
Any advice or pointers to other resources would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Ken....

Ken,
This type of application would have to sit before or on the PoP3 Server in question to work as you may be aware of.
If PoP3 is using any type of encryption between other hops, then you may not be able to see anything but the IP header of any of the packets. This also goes for what type of encoding is being used on the data packets from the headers.
Definately using a NDIS driver will do the trick. Or a simplified way is to proxy the PoP3 Server if you have admin access to that server.
An example would be to change the port of the PoP3 server to 111. Your program would listen on port 110. This would allow you to do any pre-processing on any of the information coming in, then connect to the PoP3 on 111 and handoff what you need to passthrough.
You can readup on the Pop3 protocol at the W3C (World Wide Web Consorium).
If you cannot get access to the server, then accomplishing this can only be done at the packet level.
Hope this helps!

Thanks for the response. What I ended up doing was basically writing an email client to read the email from the server, instead of capturing the email as it goes up the stack to the user's email client. This approach solved alot of issues, including some you mentioned.
