Re: where I can find Coding Conventions for C#? Tom Archer5-May-02 17:02 Tom Archer 5-May-02 17:02  Actually, the VC++ book is an MFC book. However, I've done enough in Managed Extensions that I would seriously think about combining MFC and Managed Extensions. MFC for the UI simply because I've used it for 10 years and ME for the cool classes .NET has to offer. I'm not saying I would do that, but I'd give it some serious considerations under the right circumstances - especially if time was a major issue.

You can use it or not... but in my opinion programmer should decided what he wants to use (in this case simply language dosn't support it - that's a pity) Tomiga Re: static variables in methods Neil Van Note5-May-02 20:08 Neil Van Note 5-May-02 20:08  The language supports class scope static variables; I don't see any reason why it should go any further. I have yet to see an instance, from an OOP standpoint, where it would beneficial to do otherwise. Regards Re: static variables in methods James T. Johnson5-May-02 14:17 James T.

Yes, while you can fake it by putting static variables in the class; it doesn't do anything for variables you would like to keep localized only to the method. Maybe we can see it in v.next? James Simplicity Rules! Re: static variables in methods Neil Van Note5-May-02 14:58 Neil Van Note 5-May-02 14:58  In C++, static locals are shared among all instances of a class, not very useful for state information of a recursive function. I don't know if a C# incarnation would follow the same pattern. In C++ I have never found a good reason to use the feature unless it was for returning the reference to a static object that required more aggressive initialization than just plain assignment or to defer potentially expensive initialization of such an object until it was actually used (which could be never).

I disagree. You're making the assumption that the class will be instantiated many times.

You're making the assumption that the class will be instantiated many times. In this case, I am. And you are assuming the class is a singleton, this was not noted in the discussion, and I have to assume that it is not and point the fact out. I code very defensively. Tom Archer wrote: One example is how window procs were/are written without MFC What does a local static have to do with the implementation of a class borne window procedure? This can be achieved very easily without it, and prove to be much more reusable. Tom Archer wrote: Another example if when iterating over a chain of entities where each function call works on a given link and a static variable is used to keep track of current position I cannot picture a situation where it would be used this way and prove more elegant than other straight forward solutions.

They're also harder to find when you're looking for such issues. assembly (technical problem) tomiga4-May-02 3:05 tomiga 4-May-02 3:05  I was added an ActiveX control (MSChart) to my C# project and during running an exception is raised: An unhandled exception of type 'System.Resources.MissingManifestResourceException' occurred in mscorlib.dll Additional information: Could not find any resources appropriate for the specified culture (or the neutral culture) in the given assembly.
