Keep it all in .NET. You can easily write a Windows Forms application to display a tray icon and display notifications as and when something happens in the web service (you’d probably need a timer to do the polling). There are plenty of articles around that will show you how to do this. Here’s one … Read more
You can now use nullable reference types to mark strings as optional or required: Enable nullable reference types for your project/solution Mark strings in Dtos as nullable: public class ExampleDto { [StringLength(64, MinimumLength = 4)] public string RequiredString { get; set; } [StringLength(200)] public string? OptionalString { get; set; } } Enable Swagger support in … Read more
Your only supported choice is the func like you did. See [this article][1] for more information. His example: var result = operation switch { “+” => ((Func<int>)(() => { Log(“addition”); return a + b; }))(), “-” => ((Func<int>)(() => { Log(“subtraction”); return a – b; }))(), “/” => ((Func<int>)(() => { Log(“division”); return a / … Read more
If you don’t know the type at compile time, then you can’t unbox because you have nowhere to put it – all you can do is store it in an object, which is: boxed. The same also applies to reference-types like string: you can’t cast it to the right type if you don’t know the … Read more
A starting point is that the CLR has no support for this. It must be implemented by the compiler. Something you can see from a little test program: class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { Test(); Test(42); } static void Test(int value = 42) { } } Which decompiles to: .method private hidebysig static … Read more
You can see the types in the callstack window by looking at the top line which will show the runtime evaluated type. Also want to emphasize for others your suggestion: going to the immediate window and typing ?typeof(T).Name
It sounds like you are confused about what “multi-line” means. A single-line comment ends at the end of the line of source code, and if you want to continue that comment you must put a “///” on the next line. A multi-line comment starts with a “/*” and ends with a “*/” so it can … Read more
Panel and other similar controls have both Margin and Padding properties. Padding determines spacing internal to the control …such as a panel. If Padding is set to 3 (All) in a Panel control, then controls will snap to 3 pixels of padding against internal edges of the control. Margin works the same way, but between … Read more
In languages like C and C++, there is a global variable with the name stdout, which is a pointer to the standard output stream. Thus, stdout has become a commonly used abbreviation for “standard output stream” even outside the context of the C language. Now, what does C# do? Let’s have a look at the … Read more
