This is my very first XNA application, even though it started with a porting from my previous Windows Forms game.
It took me about 2 months to create this XNA game, and there are so many interesting features in it that I think would render 2 articles. But instead, I decide to keep the article as short as possible. Besides, many of the game concepts have been already covered in the other article, so please refer to C# Snooker article if you feel some of the content is missing.... |

The .NET Framework is big. Really big. The System.Web assembly, which contains the guts of ASP.NET, is comprised of nearly 2,000 types, over 23,000 methods, and more than 12,500 properties. And that's not counting any of the functionality added to ASP.NET since version 2.0. ASP.NET AJAX, the ListView control, Dynamic Data, URL routing, and other features add hundreds of new types and thousands of new methods and properties.... |

First, we need to create an instance of the progress control. The progress bar control will be automatically attached to the taskbar. At startup, the program searches for three specific HWnds. These are Shell_TrayWnd, ReBarWindow32 and TrayNotifyWnd. The program tasks, shortcut bar etc.. are all included into this window using the ReBarWindow32 class. ReBarWindow32 is directly placed beside the TrayNotifyWnd window. All we need to do now is to create the progress bar using the method Create but ... |

A few months back, I was developing a desktop application for a client. After completing the requirements, I was enhancing the UI specially the main form. In the previous versions of Microsoft Word (before ver. 2007 ), there are some label which are clickable and reflect the changes to the keyboard (details below) and I wanted to add these features to my applications.... |

I wondered how to change text color of panes on the status bar same as what Visual SourceSafe file difference window does. In this article, I will show how to make status bar panes display their text in different colors. A regular status bar can have many panes. It could be desirable in some cases that each pane's text could be displayed in a different color.... |

First of all, a status bar contains several 'panes'. Each pane is a rectangular area of the status bar that you can use to display information. As you know, many applications display the status of the CAPS, NUM LOCK, and other keys in the rightmost panes. These panes, by default, have a 3-D border around them. The leftmost pane (pane 0), sometimes called the 'message pane', has the BPS_NOBORDERS style, and therefore doesn�t have any border surrounding it. This pane is usually used to disp... |

Many, many moons ago I extended the MFC status bar by creating a version capable of housing almost any type of control. I seem to recall that my code even supported VBX controls. (VBX? yuk!) Anyway, this article presents a simpler version that targets ActiveX controls. The demo program illustrates things by hosting two ActiveX controls on the status bar of an MFC application.... |

The MPCStatusBar class allows you to easily add/remove standard indicators, and/or add/remove controls on the status bar. MPCStatusBarPane and MPCStatusBarPaneControlInfo classes comes with MPCStatusBar. Additionally, there's a "ready to use" class, the MPCLogoPane class, that you can use to add the logo of your firm, or software on the left side of the status bar. Of course, a simple MDI application comes with the source code, where you can see the MPCStatusBar class used in conjunction MPCLogo... |

Most applications have a status bar of some description on their main window, and sometimes other windows. This class, derived from CStatusBar, provides several features missing from the standard class. The features it provides are as follows:
* Auto-fit of text
The panes can be set to resize as new text is set so that the text will always fit exactly.... |

Successfully executing a software project requires a clearly defined plan that all parties understand and endorse. It also requires effective teamwork and people who are willing to put their shoulder against the work everyday. Once a team is ready to execute the work project, the focus needs to be on doing the right things and having systems in place to compensate for inevitable miscommunication and human errors.... |

In my previous 2 articles, I have been discussing quality as a goal and methods to reach that goal. One of the observations that I made is the importance of high quality code. Among my observations related to high quality code was the importance of validating method input parameters. One of the objections that I have heard to this rule is that doing so can adversely affect application performance.... |

In the broadest sense, all the technical and non-technical activities involved in the production of a program is called programming. By non-technical activities, I mean those activities that are talent oriented. In its narrowest sense, however, coding a program is called programming.... |

They have many names. The dictionary calls them boilerplate text, but you'll also find them as stationery, AutoText, templates, canned text or text macros. The idea is always the same: type a text once-use it many times. This article is about why they are useful for software support and how to get the most out of them.... |

Software and web development can be really exciting, after years of development it can reward you a million dollars or you can be in the groove. Many of us only care about just keeping our heads above water. But I think this is not our goal what we had dreamt in school and university. To earn more, most of us search for some additional work and don't bother about anything other than hands down programming. We can't take rest, can't spend more time with our family and friends, we can't do anythin... |

Have you noticed that development schedules are getting shorter while the requirements list is getting longer? Does all your time seem to be crunch time? Does your requirement list seem to be progressively including more sophisticated features? Is your software being used by more and more people? Does it seem that the level of respect for custom software is diminishing? If so, you are not alone. I believe this trend will not only continue but will accelerate. Coping with these issues and ... |

This is a slightly massaged and extended version of a message I posted in the Lounge a couple of days ago. That message was restricted to commenting code, but it has been turned into a more complete article at the behest of a few individuals who responded to the original message. There is no source code and there are no pretty pictures to accompany this text. Finally, keep in mind as you read this that I've never been a department head or a project manager, but I have been a lead programmer and ... |

Have you ever noticed that sometimes a single programmer (or very small team) can accomplish more than a large team? Sometimes it seems that large teams are totally unable to meet deadlines or when they do, they deliver mediocre code. Why is this? I believe that the reason for this is that software development is very different from most other jobs within most companies and most companies do not recognize this. Companies have become very good at mass producing everything from textiles to jet... |
