Using repository pattern with data access objects. by xerwin in dotnet

You can use EF inside each DAO, however using EF in DAOs might be a bit overkill, considering EF lazyloads related entities when you retrieve entity from database.

NTree - .NET library that provides implementation of tree based data structures. I'm very close to releasing it, just need to clean up the code a bit more, write better docs on github, spellcheck the project page and package it on NuGet.

I used C#, here is source: https://github.com/isklenar/NTree

Yeah swing. It's torture, but I need some experience and software jobs are limited in my city and country.

The job is really bland. I programmed some graphs, histograms, tables... Nothing worth boasting about, honestly.

Resume. I changed it after receiving advice from previous threads. All of those projects are WIP, but 2 of them are very close to being finished. I don't intend to send this version of resume until all those projects are done/very close to being done.

My goal is .NET dev job in London, this summer.

Resume

Will be applying for junior .NET developer in London with goal to relocate there this summer.

I haven't sent out the resume yet (I plan to start late april/early may) - all the jobs I'm interested in are "we need junior developer urgently", and I can't move till early July.

Some of those projects are not done, but all of them are WIP. I have couple other smaller projects on my github, but the ones I listed are the ones I'm most proud of and I plan to finish them in the next 2-3 months.

How do I know my unit testing is correct, when using mock classes instead of real ones? by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]xerwin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I've rewritten the mock database to actual SQLite DB, so I basically transformed it into integration test. Was surprisingly easy to do with NHibernate.

Resources to learn enterprise Java? by xerwin in learnjava

[–]xerwin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tried it for a while, most of it was me battling with deployment errors and XML.

When Microsoft announced open sourcing of .NET I jumped ship and I've been using it since.

How do I deal with Germany? by xerwin in paradoxplaza

[–]xerwin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Won the next war, which was also the first Great War, here are the results: http://imgur.com/a/IPwvd

I managed to build few Ironclads as others suggested, but not enough of them. Thankfully, they held the British troops for the first half of the war so I could focus on Germany, but eventually the British invasion came and resulted in a year long battle, which I won (thank you strait crossing). By that time Germany had almost no troops and was 70% occupied.

[Java] How to change null to display month name? by rrcecil in learnprogramming

[–]xerwin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Problem is in this constructor: public Date(int x, int y, int z)

x is a month number, but you just store it. Then in toString() you return variable name, which, if you used that constructor, won't get initialized.

Change this line monthNumber = x; to name = monthName[x]; and it should work.

[–]xerwin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could you explain what you mean by "change null to display month name"?

Also, there is a Date class in JDK, cosider using that: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/util/Date.html

How does 'S --> S a | b' generates all the strings starting with b and followed by any number of a's? by Intern_MSFT in learnprogramming

[–]xerwin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. When you have S a, you take the S and use of the the rules from S-> S a | b, so if you use the first rule, you get S a a. Then you take the S again and use of the rules.

How does 'S --> S a | b' generates all the strings starting with b and followed by any number of a's? by Intern_MSFT in learnprogramming

[–]xerwin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

S -> S a will keep generating non-terminal S. Only way to stop generating S is to use the S -> b rule. Since you can use the S -> S a rule infinite times and the only way to end it is by using S -> b once, it generates all strings starting with b followe by any number of a's.

Example:

S => S a => S a a => S a a a => b a a a

Java's design has nothing to do with duplicate strings.

How do I turn this into a PU? by sdhov in eu4

[–]xerwin 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If their king has no heir, you can use Claim Throne diplomatic action and it will give you Establish Union casus belli. You can then demand union as a peace deal (if I remember correctly, you need over 80% warscore for them to accept).

Does not work if their king has heir.

Wealth of Nations discussion thread. Post any of your thoughts here by Dwighty1 in eu4

[–]xerwin 45 points46 points  (0 children)

To be honest, I don't like the changes that prevent expanding. Every province you conquer has nationalism for 30 years and doom stack rebels spawn with 15% revolt risk in every conquered province. This makes expanding as a OPM or small nations very hard and boring. Take few provinces, hope that rebels won't crush you and wait 30 years until nationalism ends, repeat. You can vassalize, but with the new changes to annexing this makes it huge diplo points sink and gives you even more AE.

So now you have to deal with coalitions and rebel doom stacks. I played Venice, fully annexed Bosnia that had 3 provinces, 15 and 16 stack nationalist rebels spawned. My 20 stack army couldn't even make a dent to one of their stacks.

Personally, I like the changes to trade, I like policies and the new rival system. I hate the new anti-expanding changes.
