[Mono-list] segusoLand
Hello, I understand I may not be appropriate, but I am writing this free program and wanted to know the opinion of ximian developers. It is a completely new interaction paradigm and, with a bit of courage and foresight, might be a nice addition to the ximian desktop.

In my lurker opinion, 1) it would be an error to release mono 1.0 without full documentation for anything it offers, whatever it is. 2) As for what it should offer... If Windows Forms will not work by 1.0, IMO you'll get a really bad reputation among windows developers. As long as you are before 1.0 you are shielded from that. It would be a good compromise to say window forms works IF you don't hook into the WndProc. (Of course I don't care about windows forms, I would much more prefer to see a working SharpWt.) 3) If you could get generics to work before microsoft does, this would be a killer feature. cheers, Maurizio ___ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list

[Mono-list] Bug in ASP.NET? Please take a look.
Hello,
this seems like a bug in asp.net postback mechanism.
I'm using mono 0.24 from debianplanet packages, and xsp from cvs.
To reproduce the bug:
1. in xsp, start the following aspx page.
2. Select an exam, e.g. calculus.
3. Click view subscriptions. The list of subscription correctly appears.
4. Now click view subscriptions again, _without_ changing the
selection (i.e. leave calculus selected). An error message appears,
complaining that there was no exam selected. But it was!
Am I doing somehting wrong, or is it a mono bug?

[Mono-list] Suggestion: warning member variable not initialized
Hi,
Currently the Microsoft C# compiler gives an error if you forget to
initialize a readonly member variable (this can be done either in the
contructor or in the declaration itself.)
I already posted a wish for mcs about that, but:
What about extending this behavior to non-readonly member-variables?
(Maybe a warning instead of an error?)
RATIONALE:
I cannot think of a case where not initializing a member variable (in
the constructor or at declaration time) makes sense. So we would catch
a frequent semantic error without any drawback...
Someone could reply that there ARE indeed some cases when you don't
know an appropriate value for a member variable when the constructor
is called. Maybe the user must initialize it explicitely, after
construction.
e.g.
class C{
private int member_var;
public C(){
// I don't yet know how to initialize member_var. Only the
// user can do that, via the Init method.
}
public void Init(int m){
member_var=m;
}
}
But, on the other hand, the above is bad design:
If member_var is not always meaningful across the lifetime of class C,
then member_var should NOT have been declared as a member of C, in the
first place. In other words, C is a state machine with two states:
Initialized and NotInitialized, such that member_var only makes sense
in the Initialized state, and not in the other one.
Good design:
class C{
private abstract class State{}
private class Initialized: State{
public int member_var; // this variable only makes sense
// when C is in the Initialized state!
// therefore it is declared here,
// not inside C.
public Initialized(int m){
member_var = m;
}
}
private class NotInitialized: State{}
private int state = new NotInitialized();
public void Init(int m){
state = new Initialized(m);
}
}
In this latter example, member_var DOES NOT EXIST when it does make
sense. This avoid the risk that someone reads/writes it when it makes
no sense!
In the former case, there is a time when member_var exists but does
not make sense (and is not initialized). Error prone.
So by raising an error in the former case we would enforce good
design.
Any comments?
