DYNAMIC IN C# II: BASICS

blogs.msdn.com — Last time, we began to dive into dynamic binding in C# and what happens through the pipeline. This time, we'll take a simple scenario and pick apart the details of what happens under the covers, both during compile time and runtime. We can break down what the compiler does into three parts: type and member declarations with dynamics (ie methods that return dynamic), binding and lookup, and emitting. We'll deal now with the binding aspects of dynamic. read more...

DYNAMIC IN C# IV: THE PHANTOM METHOD

blogs.msdn.com — Yes, this does sound like a Star Wars movie, but no, I'm not a Star Wars geek that just likes to pull lines from my favorite movies (though I rather enjoyed Star Wars). This post will deal with what we've coined "the phantom method". It's the method that the static compiler will bind to during the initial binding phase when it recognizes that the invocation its trying to bind needs to be bound dynamically and cannot be resolved statically. read more...

LINQ Reference Documentation

blogs.msdn.com — The LINQ documentation created by Microsoft is available both inside Visual Studio, and for free via the MSDN library found on the WEB. Here are some important pages from that documentation that can help you navigate through the online reference material that Microsoft has prepared for LINQ developers. I would not suggest using these references materials as a primary means of learning LINQ. However, if you have a book or other guide to LINQ development, then this reference material can be a useful addendum to that text. If you understand in a general way how LINQ works, but need answers to detailed questions, the links provided here may sometimes help you find answers to your questions. read more...
