what is all this MOLE v4 business??
-
So glad you like Mole. I've never been to your neck of the woods. Lived in 27 countries, some close to Jordan, but not quite there. Until I started my own blog, I never knew just how connected developers from all over the world really are. Now I have friends from all over the world. I'm hoping to be in London this May and then on to Scotland for the http://developerdayscotland.com/main/Default.aspx[^] Developer Day Scotland conference. Looking forward to actually meeting developer friends from the UK and Scotland. Best to you!

27?!! And I thought I moved alot! The first 17 years of my life were in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada and I'm hoping to move back there once I get my Masters. Possibly do my PhD at the UoA. Then I moved here, then to Kuwait for 2 years after I quit Microsoft, then back here to Jordan, then to the UAE (Dubai) then to Guangzhou, Guangdong, China and now back here again.

I know what you mean! I haven't many friends off of my blog but I keep in touch with almost every friend I made in my travels. 4 of them actually travelled, one all the way from Spain (met him in Dubai) to attend my wedding last May.

I'm most likely going back to England in May for work/business/meeting CPians. Maybe we'll meet.

Just checked out your blog. Cool stuff! Awesome press for Mole too! Hey, I can feel for you and the SQL Server dropped objects at 1:00am! Here ia a link to an entry on my blog about a late night changing of the computer settings that drove me nuts. All of a sudden one night, my computer just starts beeping at me!!!! Read the very short post here. http://karlshifflett.wordpress.com/2007/12/17/my-computer-is-beeping-at-me/[^]

Hope to see you at DevDays in Scotland. I'll do my best to be there (even toying with the idea of doing a talk if people want me).

Sounds good. Won't know until the voting for topics has been completed in late Feb, early Mar. I'll probably get into London on the 3rd of Mar and head to Scotland on the 8th of Mar. On my way home now! Have a great adventure into the heap with Mole!

I know. I'm toying with the idea of submitting a talk about using Linq to Sql without passing the Context around, including how to add extend Linq (just a little bit).

Great! I'll sign up for your class. I'm LINQ challenged. Have not done much with VS2008 but that is about to change next week.

So was I until I tried to get my head around how to use it without binding directly from the UI to the database. It's been a journey and a half getting to the stage where I can use Linq with WCF.

I'll be reading up on this soon. I'm still reading my C# books at the moment. I love WCF too. I'm using it at work in our huge WPF project and the multi-player game I'm working on. So much fun, so little time.

Developers, I uploaded a short 7 minute Mole v4 introductory video on You Tube. If you have not yet tried Mole, go take a look at the video and see what all the fuss is about. OK, this is my first video, I did over lunch, so try not to BBQ me in your comments. :-D 1. Watch Video: Mole v4 You Tube Introductory Video (free) 2. Download Mole from here: Mole v4 Code Project Article 3. Use Mole v4 when working and debugging in Visual Studio. From Team Mole, have a great day and enjoy Mole!

That Karl, is a subject demanding an article. If you ever need an help on anything except graphics, give me a buzz.

Believe me, Seeing the new places and meeting new people is cool. The moving itself is such a hassle.

The game will be released in stores in Q2 2008, so I'm not sure I can write an article on it. I might write one on it's AI or using WCF for communications in a way that does not violoate my agreements. It also does a good bit of run-time animation. What I mean by that, is the animation start and stop points are dynamically determined at run-time, yet WITHOUT using a canvas. Canvas makes this super easy. Without a canvas is a lot more difficult and actually had to come up with this technique on my own. It is orignal and not posted anywhere on the Internet. BTW: The Canvas control exposes LEFT and TOP properites so animation is super easy. When you do not have this, my technique comes into play. Maybe I should write this up, WPF Point To Point Animation Without Using The Canvas. Have a great day,

:doh: Closed Source. I've been meddling around with Open Source stuff for quite some time that I automatically assume that anything mentions will be OS too. I have to be honest, I'm depressed now :(. I've always wanted to break into the gaming industry, I've never had the chance though. Maybe one day. BUT, you mentioned that you're doing this with WPF (something I haven't played around with yet) so, there still hope :)

I have listed some WPF resources in the article. Start with Josh's blog. He has TONS of tutorials. He is Mr. WPF. My humble blog also has a good bit of WPF information. Our blog roles will also get you started with links. If you download my presentations, my applications can teach you a lot and they list resources and how to set your machine up for WPF VS2005. If your using VS2008 then you only need to install VS2008 and begin your programming. BTW: being an ASP.NET developer will be a BIG plus when you dive into WPF. Read this article and you'll see what I mean. http://www.codeproject.com/KB/WPF/WPFProblemSolving.aspx[^]
