More Clarion# on tap for May

Published 2008-04-29    Printer-friendly version

May is looking like another Clarion#-intensive month here at the mag. I'd hoped to be revealing some of the web development work I've been doing with Clarion# (on the way to porting the ClarionMag server code from Java) but these things always take longer than planned. I have, however, been doing a bunch of test-driven development (TDD, if you're short on acronyms this week) with NUnit and Clarion#. I've covered NUnit before, but lately I've been using it intensively, and for certain situations I'm finding it an indispensible tool.

I've worked up a series of examples based on some of the web work I've been doing which I think you'll find interesting. And not coincidentally these examples provide a great lead-in to generic types which are a nifty addition to the Clarion language.

Really, I've become addicted to test-drive development and generics. Be careful; it could happen to you.

Besides all the good stuff in May there's the Aussie DevCon at the end of the month, where Bob Z promises to raise the curtain on the new AppGen. I can't personally make it to the conference this year but ClarionMag will have coverage.
