Darren,

You could condense those lines into 1:

DateTime myDate = DateTime.Now;

That way you are not creating a DateTime object just to discard it in the
next line.

I have put my users through so much crap with this bug it is an absolute shame. I have a product that reads/writes RSS 2.0 documents, among other things. The RSS 2.0 spec mandates an en-US style of date formatting (RFC 822). I have been using a variation of RFC 1123 (just change the time zone to an offset, i.e. "-0800"). It seems to be writing okay, but it's failing to parse. I've tried changing the regional & language settings in my...

I've got a section of code in my app that keeps track of how much time an employee has accrued, which equals out to 1.33 days of PTO per month. I'm trying to store the time accrued so far in an XML file. I have no problems writing to and reading from the XML file and all my values are correct. The problem I'm having is my calculation never amounts to 1.33, it goes from 1.32999999999997 to 1.3743333333333. on the next run.

This is my first foray into writing a generic method and maybe I've bitten off more than I can chew. My intent is to have a generic method that accepts a value name and that value will be returned from the source. My first attempt was as follows; (please ignore that error handling is not present in this example) public T GetValue<T(string objName) { T results;

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
