RE: USD $8 App dev accounts
Also as a FYI if you have a MSDN account you get a free account (check you MSDN Account) From: ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com [mailto:ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com] On Behalf Of Preet Sangha Sent: Wednesday, October 31, 2012 2:22 PM To: ozDotNet Subject: USD $8 App dev accounts According to http://blogs.windows.com/windows_phone/b/wpdev/archive/2012/10/30/announcing-the-new-windows-phone-8-developer-platform.aspx You can get appdev accounts for on USD $8 for the next week. They say that they'll charge 99 in local currency but refund the difference in the next month. My local currency in NZD but they want 70. I wonder if this is a ex rate reversal? What do you guys get for AUD? -- regards, Preet, Overlooking the Ocean, Auckland
RE: [OT] Really bad Telstra phone reception
Over time more people are joining 3g networks with devices that have higher and higher data usages, the longer this progresses the more the towers get flooded and the less bandwidth available to all. My network started off quite well, now its close to unusable (from about 2 years ago) From: ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com [mailto:ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com] On Behalf Of Tony Wright Sent: Monday, 17 September 2012 12:55 PM To: 'ozDotNet' Subject: [OT] Really bad Telstra phone reception Hi all, I am now experiencing really bad Telstra phone signal. It used to be fantastic, but is now appalling. I think they've deliberately downgraded the mobile phone network to make their 4G look better, but those of us that don't feel the need to upgrade our phones just yet are expected to suck it up. Is there anything we can do about it? Regards, Tony
RE: Anyone using structs in C# Business Applications?
I believe everyone in this thread is talking about programmer implemented structs not ones provided by the .Net framework.

All BO's are classes, and I can't think of anything more fine grind than that. Unless I have been missing something, my question is to Business App writers, do you use structs any where for any reasons? In all the usuall VS demos I have not seen structs being used ( graphics demos do not count!) Regards Arjang Tristan Reeves wrote: Hi, To answer your specific question, int, double, bool, DateTime are all structs. I can't see any (even vanilla) business application getting by without them, can you? Regard, Tristan. Int is a struct? And yes, I use structs a fair bit for small things. Sure a struct is pretty much an class without methods/functions/whatevertheterminology, and maybe a class would be neater/better suited/etc but when I am returning a few small things, sometimes I'll hack together something like struct sResult { public bool valid, public string[] errors, public string[] warnings } Just so I can have certain bits and pieces come back nicely to the UI. Any reason why this is a bad idea? -- Les Hughes l...@datarev.com.aumailto:l...@datarev.com.au
