I have been reading throughout the day and i thought i could share all of them along with some more of my archived links and give it as a package ! Here's what i put together and other things that have interested me recently ! Enjoy reading :)
- Thanks to Julia Lerman for pointing out the compilation of UI Articles at Infragistics Development center.
- The interviews(1, 2, 3, 4) with Anders Hejlsberg, the C# lead architect has been amazing .. Some hardcore information source about certain features of the language and why they were implemented the way they are implemented ! Here's a cool excerpt.
- Bruce Eckel: You are the benevolent dictator for C#?
- Anders Hejlsberg: I'm the tie breaker. Once we've gone around an issue enough, and it is time to just make a decision one way or the other, I make it. But in most cases the decision is obvious.
- Bruce Eckel: Is that similar to how Turbo Pascal and Delphi were designed?
- Anders Hejlsberg: Those were less formal. I designed Turbo Pascal mostly by myself. I designed Delphi with Chuck Jazdzewski and Gary Whizin, but the group was small enough that we didn't really need a formal process. For C#, on the other hand, it has worked really well to formalize: every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 1:00 to 3:00, we have a regularly scheduled meeting. We have a living agenda. Issues bubble to the top, and we knock them off. We have a wiki now on the internal web with the issues list, resolutions for them, and so on.
