Okay, first of all. Get Visual Studio 2022, and uninstall Visual Studio 2019. There is a milestone difference between version of 2022 and 2019. 2022 is on another level of improvement.
Aside from Intellisense, it's now has another upgraded version called IntelliCode.

I'm fully aware of Visual Studio 2022. While we will switch to it in due time, it's too early at this point.

You can have both VS 2019 and VS 2022 installed side by side. So able to keep developing with 2019, but can then test drive 2022.
My biggest concern (working in gov't org with hundreds of developers) is that some people will start using some of the new features in C#10, and others will get compile errors running same code in VS 2019. Plus no idea whether our Azure DevOps CI/CD pipelines will work...

lol, speaking of coffee, we had some sort of drive thru coffee shop open near us. Now, I am NOT a coffee connoisseur at all. Give me a large mug of Dunkin Donuts coffee - hot, no sugar and milk (don't get happy with the milk). I like the bitterness, it tells me I'm drinking coffee. Anyway, wife and I decided to stop by and try their ice coffee (I was sucking up to the wife). Two small iced coffees, just cream please.
That will be $7.52 
Yeah, screw that

So this customer's customer asked me if I can send a file to an API instead of through email.
Sure I can, no problem, just send me the API definition.
The API has a few fields of which file is the most important.
The curl example they sent me shows it's form data and the file parameter is a local file path.
I don't know what curl does, so I asked this guy "how do I send the file in .NET? Do you want a byte array, a base64 string, something else? I'm pretty sure sending my local file path won't do."
He replies "I don't know how that works in .NET, but you can read the curl documentation."
"Alright, let me rephrase that. I know how .NET works, but how do you want to receive the file, as a byte array, base64 string, something else?"
Apparently, this is a very difficult question as this guy had to send it to someone else who replies (literally) "You need to tell them that, you need to send through form-data, check the postman screenshot"
The screenshot is literally the curl request, including a local file path
At this point I just want to send them "C:\My Files\My file.pdf" and be done with it 
I'm going to make a wild guess and mimic an HTML input type="file" form upload and see how far that gets me because I don't think I'm ever going to get the answer I'm looking for...

If my experience is anything to go on, there's a good chance the data should be sent packaged up as a literal inside an XML document (the nodenames of which will not be documented anywhere). 
Good luck...

That's my experience too, it's never what you'd expect (even when you expect the unexpected)

Postman will translate a curl to C# code for you. Very handy!

Pretty lucky it wasn't worse. Seems like everyone's a critic.
Unless it was your wife that said it. then you are probably in doo-doo land.

Have you ever set out to design something complicated with no idea how well it will work in the end, and no way to try it without just diving in?
And then you get the first sign of life from the thing, and it's brilliant. It makes it all worth it.
My Reggie rewrite is now generating *proper* T-SQL and proper C# for tokenizing, both table driven and compiled. That's the most complicated code generation involved. It works, and its tokenization passed my initial test for all versions.
It means csppg combined with Reggie's expando based template dispatching is actually working for what I designed it to do to wit, I can describe state machines in a code and platform independent manner and all supported targets can render it to their target language.
If it works with T-SQL it can pretty much work with anything. Something like Scheme would actually be pretty easy, if not efficient.
Anyway, I'm elated. I still have a lot to do, but I was kind of sweating bullets hoping this didn't all fall down on me. It worked at least as well as I expected, if not better.
