Sorry I couldn't be there. Had to leave early today so that included not coming to the meeting...
You know how schedules get. :/

Hi Roy,

I saw you and it was a very good lecture.

"With the Regex lecture, start out with a demo of parsing the log file and then dive into the rest of the material"

sounds OK, especially to those who have no idea what regex is.


"The plugin lecture went too deep. THe part about passing EditorContext to the plugin was a bit too much to handle"

I don't think so. I think that the people at the group want to understand what is going on in your code, not just to see something works without understanding it.

p.s.:
I also asked at the lecture:
where can I found a version that runs on framework 1.0 ? I found only version that runs on 1.1

Hi Roy,

I think your lecture was great. Both subject will probably become very helpful for me very soon, and it gave me a good starting point.
I do agree that starting the Regex lecture with a demo might make it easier on people who don't know anything about it (although I didn't feel the need for it, because I had at least some idea of what it is and the basics of how it works).

Keep on the good work!

Ilan

Hi ,
It went very nice and smoothly.
For me I'd like for introducing more advanced using of Regex, but it is my personal wish. Not sure good for me is good for anyone :-)

i am kind'a new in the area of programming, and i must say that
the second part (plug-ins) helped me a lot in covering a few gaps i had
about implementing reflection classes and run time discovery of types.
great job Roy!

there's a config hack you can do to make it run on .net 1.0:
<configuration>

<startup>

<supportedRuntime version="v1.0.3705"/>

</startup>

Hi Roy,

It was a great lecture, and covered useful topics.
Especially the second part about the plugins and custom SDKs which is an area I'm not experienced with at all. You provided me with a good jump start.

Looking forward for your next ones :-)

BTW, I started reading your blog and found it very interesting.
Few weeks ago you wrote about the "Lookout" Outlook search add-in - it is a great tool and highly recommended.

about the "config hack you can do to make it run on .net 1.0":

I tried to add an app.config file, and to add these lines, but it didn't work.
I also checked all the other config and xml file, and I couldn't find where to add thosoe lines.

What should I do ?

Amir: what exactly are you trying to run?

The Regulator.exe file

# re: My talk went very well. You missed out :)

Amir: try downloading this zip file, and put the config file in the directory with the regulator exe.
I hope it works :)

tell me if it does work, and I'll publish it officially.
