eric’s extremeboredom

Worked a little bit on QuickThumbs this week and fixed a whole ton of bugs. If you have a few minutes to spare, a directory with a bunch of images/photos on your drive, and mono/xsp/libgdiplus installed (1.1.9 recomended), here’s something to try: cd /path/to/images/or/photos/or/whatever/ svn co https://svn.extremeboredom.net/QuickThumbs/trunk/web . xsp Now open your web browser to [...]

Those of you reading this via monologue (http://go-mono.org/monologue) have no doubt already noticed that the new look is now online! This matches the new http://www.mono-project.org/ website (which I did not have anything to do with) and brings us the talk bubbles from the Planet websites that everyone is used to. If you are listed on [...]

So there seem to have been quite a few misconceptions about the Glade# code generator, both recently and a few months ago, that I want to clear up. New Feature Before I get to that though, I now have (mostly untested) support for both VB.net and Boo: If you use either of these languages please [...]

I wrote a very basic application to generate Glade# code from a glade xml file using CodeDOM. Its a good way for new users to get an idea of how to use Glade#, as well as a way for everyone else to save time. This tool generates stub classes (one class per top-level widget) that [...]

Preveously if you wanted to traverse all the rows in a ListStore (used for TreeView, ComboBox, etc.) you would have to do something like: [...]

Hi everyone, I put up a nice website for the Seattle Mono User’s Group (SMUG) today: http://www.mono-seattle.org/ The site is powered by Cuyahoga, a very nice (free) asp.net content management system that runs on mono. And as Chris mentioned, don’t forget that theres a meeting this weekend. Details here.

So we had a very impressive turnout of three people last night. I guess everyone around here that uses .NET works at Microsoft, huh? Anyway we still had a good time, Chris was working on implementing a version control system into monodevelop, Andrew was working on refactoring the information management application he is developing, and [...]

Just a reminder that the next seattle mono user’s group meeting is today at 4:00. Anyone interested in C#, Mono, or .NET in general is invited to come (but if we see you boot windows on your laptop we might chase you out of the room =). The location and any other comments are on [...]
