I've got a hint from a gentleman here to use the
following syntax.
public static FileInfo[]
GetFilesRegExp( this DirectoryInfo di, string pat)
{
Regex re = new Regex(pat);
return Array.FindAll(
di.GetFiles(),
(f) =re.IsMatch(f.N ame));
}
The problem is that the compiler seems to dislike
"this" in the argument list as well as "goes to"
in the lambda expression.
What's up with that and how do i kill it?

What errors are you getting _exactly_. Writing "the compiler seems to
dislike" doesn't explain your problem at all.
As far as the "this", I expect that either you're not using C# 3.0 or
you're trying to declare the method in a non-static class. But without
knowing the error, it's hard to say for sure which or whether either is
correct.
I don't see anything obviously wrong with the lambda expression, but
again...if you're not using C# 3.0, then it wouldn't work.
Knowing the actual error message would help a _lot_. Frankly, that's
always going to be true if you are asking about help with errors that
occur, either during compilation or execution.

I could argue that i provided just enough information, my
helpful friend. In fact, i was using v2.0, which i wasn't
aware of until you pointed it out. Thanks a million!
(Of course, i agree with you - one should almost always
provide the error messages. In this case, i KNEW it
couldn't be that. However, for future reference, i'll do it.)
Now, i was sure that installing VS 2008 upgraded my
framework to v3.5. Obviously, it didn't... Is the upgrade
to the latest version of the framework free of charge if
i'm already on a paid version of VS2005?

Well, you can argue anything you like. That doesn't mean you'd be right.

C# 2.0? Or .NET 2.0?

If you're using VS 2008, you're using C# 3.0. In VS 2008, projects can
target any specific version of .NET from 2.0 on. The default ought to be
..NET 3.5, but the issues you're asking about are language/compiler issues
so even if you accidently targeted an earlier version of .NET, using VS
2008 should still allow it to compile. Conversely, just having the .NET
3.5 SDK installed isn't sufficient. You need to be using the compiler
that supports C# 3.0 features, which is VS 2008.
In other words, we're back to my previous comment: without knowing the
exact error message, it's impossible to say for sure what the problem is.
_If_ my comments about language version have led you to an actual
solution, then _maybe_ you can try to argue that you've provided enough
information (but I'll just argue I'm a good guesser :) ). But if you
haven't solved the problem yet even with the answer I've given so far,
obviously you haven't provided enough information to answer the question
yet. :)

First of all - thanks for help. It's needed and apreciated!
Secondly, this is the stuation on my computer today.
VS2005, v8.0
DotNet framework v2.0
MS VC# 2005
According to the lis tin the control panel, i have a bunch of frameworks
installed: v1.1, v.2.0, v3.5 and so on.
The error message i perhaps should have provided is as follows.
Error 3 Invalid expression term '>'
C:\dev\dummies\ XMLReading01.cs 36 24 DummySpace
The two lines causing the problems are as follows.
int[] arr = new int[] { 1, 13, 5, 3, 12, 1, -3, 4 };
arr.Average((nu mb) =numb 4);

As I wrote, the .NET version doesn't help. You have to be using the right
compiler, and the 2005 version of the C# compiler isn't the right one. It
only supports C# 2.0.
You can either revert to the older "delegate" syntax (so "(f) =>
re.IsMatch(f.Na me)" becomes "delegate (string f) { return
re.IsMatch(f.Na me); }"), or you can switch to the newer compiler (the most
obvious way would be to just use the 2008 version of VS, either Visual C#
Express 2008 or the retail version of Visual Studio 2008).
As far as the extension method you tried to declare, there is no C# 2.0
equivalent. If you can't or won't upgrade your compiler, you'll just have
to call the static method explicitly, and declare it without the "this" in
the parameter list.

And what are you building with? The command line? Visual Studio? If
you're building with the command line, you need to make sure you're
using one with the correct environment variables set up.

If you've got .NET 3.5 installed, you've got the C# 3.0 compiler
installed - but you can't make VS 2005 use it. So you could build C# 3
code from the command line, but not from VS 2005.
I'll consider it. It'll be like in the good old

Another reason not to stick to fancy syntactic sugar stuff like
"lambda expressions" and to do things the old fashioned (C#2.0) way.
I just reviewed lambda expressions this morning, as well as Action and
Func, and it seems an enormous waste of time, designed to impress
fellow programmers, like the ternary conditional operator ?:, rather
than to get the job done.

Hi,
I'm trying to write a Python function that parses
an expression and builds a function tree from it

During parsing, lambda functions for the the terms
and sub-expressions are constructed on the fly.
Now my problem is lazy evaluation. Or at least I
think it is. :-)

Hi guys,
I'm a little worried about the expected disappearance of lambda in
python3000. I've had my brain badly broken by functional programming
in the past, and I would hate to see things suddenly become harder
than they need to be.
An example of what I mean is a quick script I wrote for doing certain
actions based on a regexp, which I will simlify in this instance to
make the pertanant points more relevent.

During our current discussion of the fate of functional constructs in

He says he's going to dispose of map, filter, reduce and lambda. He's
going to give us product, any and all, though, which is nice of him.

How does the lambda library actually works. How does it know how to
evaluate _1, how does it recognize _1 as a placeholder, how does it
then calculate _1+_2, or _1+2 etc. The source files seem a bit
complicated so any explanation would be appreciated.
