Stories of daily programming
Some time ago I published some posts about configuring a PHP development environment in a Windows machine. If you are interested, you can find here the first post of the series. Staying on this topic, these days I needed to create a new PHP project with FuelPHP framework, using the environment configured in the posts…
Hello my friends! Today I want to talk about some problems encountered using the property Environment.TickCount, available since the version 1.1 of .NET Framework. In a nutshell, this property tells you how many milliseconds elapsed since system boot. Why did I have to use it? During the development of TDP Robot, that I remind you…
Good morning my friends! I’m happy to announce the release of a new version of TDP Robot, specifically 0.70.1.0. There are no new tasks or events, but only some improvements and bug fixes. Configuration files are compatible with the previous version 0.70.0.0, so you shouldn’t have problems installing this new version. As usual, source code…
Sometimes I like reading about (simple) mathematical problems and today I want to talk to you about a problem I encountered while reading a math book: the Goldbach’s conjecture. I admit that this is a topic that probably won’t be very useful in our life as programmers, but I find it fascinating and curious and…

Whats new in this version? Here is the list:…

Today I want to talk you about a problem I faced in these last days working on a ASP.NET web form project. In this project I used the library “UI for ASP.NET AJAX” from Telerik, and in particular the problem occurred using the RadGrid control. What was the problem? In a nutshell, without an explanation,…
Hi everyone, a new version of TDP Robot has been released. Unfortunately this is a breaking change, so if you created some jobs with the previous version, you cannot use with this one. You can find download links and installation instructions at TDP Robot page. What’s new in this version? Following the list of changes:…
Today I published my latest work: The Dummy Programmer Robot, a Windows software to monitor and automate your PCs and servers in an easy way. You can download the installation package and source code at this page. I hope you like TDP Robot and find it useful. Let me know your opinions!
I’m developing a C# application which uses the library ClosedXML in order to generate XLSX files, and I ran into this error: “Could not load file or assembly ‘DocumentFormat.OpenXml, Version=2.7.2.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=8fb06cb64d019a17’ or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.File name: ‘DocumentFormat.OpenXml, Version=2.7.2.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=8fb06cb64d019a17′”. It’s weird, because in my development…
