Do you REALLY believe this could be possible?
|
|
|
|
|
But I prefer to get paid to code.
|
|
|
|
|
But for cool beer I might make an exception
Press F1 for help or google it.

I can code but only if .NET provide me Fridge API, that I can refereed in my solution and use it like
using Friege;
using (clsFridge objFr = new clsFridge())
{
objFr.Restore();
}

The only reason people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory.

Whether I think I can, or think I can't, I am always bloody right!

Yeah...it should be the Refrigerator namespace. It's in the WhiteGoods.DLL assembly, so he may have to add a reference as well.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Is objFr.Close() included in the dispose method? Otherwise you should call it explicitly.
|

As long as Close doesn't also Dispose the fridge he'll be fine!

The Fridge has an API so 33% feel compelled to use it??
You need to get out more.

Not really. I am a bit of an efficiency enthusiast. I already have a home automation solution in the works, and the ability to collect data from electronics and control them so that they waste less energy is a good thing in my mind.
Find out when the fridge uses the most electricity. Does it have some way to track its contents? Send me an email alert when the water filter is about a month from expiration. If it is dark outside, but no-one is out there, turn it off. If it comes on at night, take a picture with the security camera.
After 8PM? Auto-turn down the TV to keep the living room a little quieter. Track the time and channels that are being watched, maybe they can be pruned from the cable bill.
Turn off lights in rooms I don't use. Turn off the air when no-one has been there for 20 minutes. Only turn on lights at 20% of full brightness when after midnight until 6:00 AM. Alert me when someone drives up in the drive-way.
By automating the house, there are energy savings to be made, security to be increased, and a lot of menial tasks that can be taken off your plate. I count this blog as being my initial inspiration to get into home automation: http://blog.abodit.com/[^].

Well, I kind of knew it. But as I clicked on this survey I thought I knew what the answer would be and a resounding one at that. Wrong!

So a completely static beer fridge is ok with you?
I want to add legs onto mine, and program it follow me about the place!
|
|
|
|
|
Ha ha, good one . Honda might snatch this idea and work on this after they are done with ASIMO...
|
|
|
|
|
if (Fridge.Contains(beer))
Fridge.temp = Fridge.DefaultTemp - 5;
else
ErrorMessage("No Beer left in fridge!!!!!")
|
|
|
|
|
OMG... Then you could trigger an order to Asda (Walmart) !!!!
All the best

You forgot the fun on closing the fridge when my wife arrives. Then opens. Then closes.
Finally she will run in fear to... me !

Programming and fridge here... and nobody has still said BACON!?
Imagine a Fridge with a CListCtrl and filled of Bacon!

I've gotten pretty good at using light switches over the years. If making a grocery list, punching buttons on a microwave, or changing the thermostat is such a chore that you need to bring an API into it, what kind of life are you leading?
|

Quite.
I saw this washing machine in John Lewis pushing £2k recently which comes with an app for your smartphone. For the love of God, why??
