Performancing

Ok, so I found another alternative to BlogJet: Performancing.  This is an extension of FireFox so I have to have that installed.

So far it looks like it is easy to use.  It can't seem to be able to insert an image like Live Writer but I think it will be easier to blog about something I found on the web.

I have a feeling I will keep using Live Writer and only use this on occasion.


powered by performancing firefox  OK I don't like that Performancing does self promoting.  That is a big minus.

Json for jqGrid from ASP.Net MVC

jqGrid takes a specific format for its json (taken from jqGrid documentation): [js]{ total: "xxx",page: "yyy", records: "zzz", rows : [ {id:"1", cell:["cell11", "cell12", "cell13"]}, {id:"2", cell:["cell21", "cell22", "cell23"]}, ... ]}[/js] The tags mean the following: total - Total number of Pages. page - Current page Index. records - Total number of records in the rows group. rows - An array with the data plus an identifier. id - The unique row identifier, needs to be an int from what I have found. cell - An array of the data for the grid.

Remote Controlled RoboTank

This is my version of the ever popular to build RoboTank. It uses an Arduino Mega 2560 with the AdaFruit motor shield and an XBee S1 to communicate to the DFRobot Gamepad. The sketch for the RoboTank makes use of the AFMotor.h to drive the motors and includes a serial parser to read and process the commands coming from the Gamepad.

FileSystemWatcher With the BlockingCollection

While working with the FileSystemWatcher I found that if too many files were created the built in buffer will overflowed and files will be skipped.  After much research I found out about the Producer-Consumer Problem .  Then I found that .Net 4 has the BlockingCollection which helps solve the issue.  But how to use it with the FileSystemWatcher? On StackOverflow I found  Making PLINQ and BlockingCollection work together .  I'm not so interested in the PLINQ issue but this is a great example of using The BlockingCollection with FileSystemWatcher. [csharp] using System; using System.Collections.Concurrent; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.IO; using System.Linq; using System.Threading; namespace ConsoleApplication4 {     public class Program     {         private const string Folder = "C:\\Temp\\InputData";         static void Main(string[] args) {             var cts = new CancellationTokenSource();             foreach (var obj in Input(cts.Token))
