I’m on the way to migrating from NServiceBus v5 to v6, and currently using NServiceBus.Host. As changing everything at the same time would be too much risk, I decided to keep using NServiceBus.Host until the migration to v6 is completed. This post is only relevant if you’re using NServiceBus.Host to host your endpoint. NServiceBus.Host for v6 does not register the NServiceBus interfaces (e.g. IMessageSession) on the dependency injection container anymore. During startup of the...

How do you build your Visual Studio solution, verify your coding guidelines and execute tests? What steps do you take when adding a new project to your Visual Studio solution? Living in the past Let me summarize my past experience. I have tried several different approaches, all of them involved build scripts, and Visual Studio Project Templates or manual editing of *.csproj files. I don’t like any of the approaches. Why?

In my current project I’m working with Aspose.Words for .NET to create documents. Aspose.Words works very well for what I have to do. Though when it comes to debugging it starts being inefficient. It’s just a fact that a Word document has a fairly complex object model that has very deep object hierarchies with all its sections, headers, tables, paragraphs etc. This makes it cumbersome to navigate within the document and understand what the document you are inspecting really looks...

Probably you already know it: The new Windows Store App class libraries prevent proxy generating using frameworks like Castle.Core because System.Reflection.Emit namespace is missing in the limited framework they’re using.
But we still want to do TDD and therefore we need a nice mocking framework, like FakeItEasy, don’t we?
In this blog post I will show you the best way I came up with to develop Windows Store App compatible code with TDD.
