Delegates

Ever tried to make a delegate that accepts a void* parameter? Since it's type-safe, you'd want/need to support multiple datatypes and ranks (if there's arrays involved) so you end up have to do Foo1, Foo2, Foo3 because you can't overload a delegate based on just parameter types, you actually have to explicitly change the method's name. Any methods that accept the delegate, you have to provide an overload for each of the additional delegates... multiply that by a delegate that accepts 2 or 3 void* params.. you get the picture.

Orilogic - Data Layer Codes Generator

Looks like Orilogic released Code Generator 2.0 today. The new additions allow you to return data as a DataReader or a DataSet and dynamically bind data layers using .NET Metadata and Reflection using DBBase. To download the tool, you have to go through a quick register process... there is an online demo available here.

SDL.NET New Forum

I'm thinking of downloading SDL.NET and trying to get it play nicely with the Tao library. Randy Ridge, one of the CsGL developers, has done an incredible job with the library, and I actually believe the SDL.NET project at one time (before merges, etc...) was part of CsGL... so surely it can't be too hard...
