With over 500 attendees and 11 tracks to choose from, the Orlando Code Camp was once again a huge success!   Congratulations to all of the volunteers that helped organize this event.

I gave a presentation on an introduction to the Unity Application Block – Understanding Inversion of Control and Dependency Inversion Principles by introducing the Unity Application Block into an existing application.  You can download my presentation slides and code samples here

 

I enjoyed meeting everyone in Orlando,  hope to see you next year.

I have the privilege of giving two presentations at the South Florida Code Camp February 7th in Miramar Florida

 

Visual Studio Team System 2008 Development Edition

This session will cover the advanced tools available in Visual Studio 2008 Professional and Development Editions. We will quickly dive deep into using Code Metrics to facilitate Unit Testing and help improve code quality. Then we’ll dig into the details of Code Coverage, Static Analysis and Profiling to round off the tools at your disposal.

 

Introduction to the Unity Application Block

This session will focus on understanding Inversion of Control and Dependency Inversion Principles by introducing the Unity Application Block into an existing application. We will decompose an application into several loosely coupled components and demonstrate how Unity is used to locate and load your dependencies. Numerous code examples will cover Unity configuration, Unit Tests and object lifetime management. We will also demonstrate how the Unity Application Block helps facilitate the Open-Closed Principle and the Single Responsibility Principle (SRP) using Decorator Chains.

 

You can register for the event HERE.   Hope to see you there.

SFCodeCamp2009

 

The South Florida Code Camp 2009 has opened Speaker Registration for the February 7th Free Code Camp in Miramar Florida.  Code Camps are a great opportunity for local developers to give presentations to their peers. If you’ve ever wanted to give speaking a try, Code Camps provide an excellent environment to do so.
