Unexpected error while debugging Windows Phone 7.1

Today I`ve  some strange which occurred before my debugger attached to the Windows Mobile emulator.
Exception message text  was:

"File or assembly name 'System.Windows.debug.resources, Version=2.0.5.0, Culture=en-US, PublicKeyToken=7cec85d7bea7798e', or one of its dependencies, was not found."

As You can see this in not helpful and hard to resolve. But after some investigation I remembered that I changed some exception settings in my Visual Studio.

All thing You need to do, when you get such error is  to turn off any other exception types than 'CLR Exceptions". To change this in Visual Studio go to the Debug->Exceptions.


Thank You.

Persisting Enum in database with Entity Framework

Problem statement We all want to write clean code and follow best coding practices. This all engineers 'North Star' goal which in many cases can not be easily achievable because of many potential difficulties with converting our ideas/good practices into working solutions.  One of an example I recently came across was about using ASP.NET Core and Entity Framework 5 to store Enum values in a relational database (like Azure SQL). Why is this a problem you might ask... and my answer here is that you want to work with Enum types in your code but persist an integer in your databases. You can think about in that way. Why we use data types at all when everything could be just a string which is getting converted into a desirable type when needed. This 'all-string' approach is of course a huge anti-pattern and a bad practice for many reasons with few being: degraded performance, increased storage space, increased code duplication.  Pre-requirements 1. Status enum type definition...

Multithread processing of the SqlDataReader - Producer/Consumer design pattern

In today post I want to describe how to optimize usage of a ADO.NET SqlDataReader class by using multi-threading. To present that lets me introduce a problem that I will try to solve.  Scenario : In a project we decided to move all data from a multiple databases to one data warehouse. It will be a good few terabytes of data or even more. Data transfer will be done by using a custom importer program. Problem : After implementing a database agnostic logic of generating and executing a query I realized that I can retrieve data from source databases faster that I can upload them to big data store through HTTP client -importer program. In other words, data reader is capable of reading data faster then I can process it an upload to my big data lake. Solution : As a solution for solving this problem I would like to propose one of a multi-thread design pattern called Producer/Consumer . In general this pattern consists of a two main classes where: Producer class is res...

Creating common partial class with Entity Framework

When we use the Entity Framework (EF) in multilayer information systems sometimes we want to extend classes generated by EF by adding some common properties or functions. Such operation can`t be conduct on *.edmx data model so we need to make some improvement in our solution. Let`s begin... Lets assumed that in our soulution we have only three layer (three project): Client console application which has reference to the second layer  - ' ConsoleApplication ' project name Class library project with class interfaces only - ' Interfaces ' project name Class library class implementation and data model referenced to 'Interfaces' project - ' Classes ' project name. Picture 1. Solution structure. Now when we have all solution structure we can focus on data model. In the ' Classes ' project we create a new folder named ' Model ' and inside add new item of ADO.NET Entity Data Model named ' Learning.edmx ' - it may be empty ...
