WizzardWrx .NET API Core Available on NuGet
-
The core features of the WizardWrx .NET API are now available as a set of NuGet packages. Thanks to the dependency chain, you can get all of them in one go by installing the WizardWrx.Core library, found at https://www.nuget.org/packages/WizardWrx.Core/. Otherwise, search for "WizardWrx" to see the list. Since they rely on the existing library documentation at [WizardWrx .NET API](https://txwizard.github.io/WizardWrx\_NET\_API/api/index.html), the documentation included with the packages is scant. However, each package includes a ReadMe file that points to the real documentation, which is MSDN-style documentation generated by DocFX. The ReadMe opens in Visual Studio when the installation completes, and the package includes a Markdown copy in addition to the text file that displays in Visual Studio. The WizardWrx .NET API is a set of libraries that expose a rich set of general-purpose helper classes for use in projects that target the Microsoft .NET Framework. Among other things, they offer the following. 1) Syntactic sugar, such as the routines that identify the first, last, and next-to-last iteration of a
FORloop, convert subscripts to and from ordinals (zero-based versus one-based subscripts), compute a modulus (remainder), and perform decimal shifts 2) Prse dynamically generated format control strings (used withstring.formatand such), 3) Reduce computing message digests to a single method call 4) Transparently convert Registry values of all types into native types (strings, integers of various sizes, and byte arrays) 5) Parse command line arguments for any program (command line or graphical), 6) Add numerous extension methods tosystem.stringandsystem.IO.FileOnfo7) Simplify working with the match groups returned by the Regular Expression engine 8) Dynamically generate format strings to compactly represent data in tabular format 9) Implement the Singleton design pattern in a way that fully leverages certain guarantees about the behavior of static constructors 10) Format and log exception reports, optionally recording them in a Windows Event Log and efficiently reporting them on the two standard console output streams, taking into account when either or both has been redirected to a file 11) Accurately identify the type of processor on which the code is executing and the Windows subsystem (character mode, graphical, etc.) in -

No idea, but the documentation sure looks fine :thumbsup:

WizardWrx is a business name under which I operated as an independent software engineer for a number of years. My wife suggested it as a way to convey that she sees me as a wizard, in the magician sense, of software engineering. At the time, we also happened to be living in a village called Wizard Wells.

What we really want to know is what the purpose of your library is ! :-\

Thanks, much clearer now :thumbsup: Btw. I'm still using SandCastle but you pointed me to DocFX which looks very interesting !

Several years ago, I considered implementing Sandcastle, but I never became sufficiently motivated to make it happen. By the time I became so motivated, it was evident that the momentum was shifting in favor of DocFX. If you are serious about using it, you might want to read [How To Integrate DocFX API Documentation Into Your GitHub Repository](https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/1260150/How-To-Integrate-DocFX-API-Documentation-Into-Your), which describes the lessons I learned during my implementation. I've been using it long enough now that it "just works."

True, SandCastle has a steep learning curve when you want to customize your pages with MAML. Thanks for the link, although we don't use GitHub but Gitea which allows us to have our own local GIT server, see: https://www.slant.co/topics/425/~best-git-web-interfaces[^]

For what it's worth, since DocFX generates static HTML pages, you can host them anywhere.

What happens if everybody tries to push their "product" here like this?
It does not solve my Problem, but it answers my question
I've made one announcement. Other than answering questions, that's all you'll see from me. BTW, it's also free to all comers. There's already been a minor update since I wrote the original message, which would have gone without mention, had I not wanted to reply to this message.

I think the point he was making was that this forum isn't really intended for posting announcements of software releases or package updates. Instead, have you considered writing an article, tip or blog post to highlight your software and give some background on it and it's usage? As per the forum description at the top of the page:
The Weird and The Wonderful forum is a place to post Coding Horrors, Worst Practices, and the occasional flash of brilliance.

Yep. Point taken, and I've found a more appropriate forum for it.
