...t on the Roslyn team. CodeDom is a precursor to Roslyn, but is only marginally related. Essentially, CodeDom is a simple and (somewhat) langage agnostic way to generate code that was added in .NET 1.0 to support designers (a la WinForms). Because CodeDom was an attempt at providing a unified model ...

...e on the request/response chain identified by the Request-URI. This method allows the client to determine the options and/or requirements associated with a resource, or the capabilities of a server, without implying a resource action or initiating a resource retrieval. Responses to this method are n...

...memory (and hence a different value for the stackpointer register), and usually different memory access protections. I.e. when executing in user mode, kernel memory (part of which is the kernel stack) will not be accessible even if mapped. Vice versa, without explicitly being requested by the kernel...

... Cache-Control: no-cache has the same meaning for requests but is actually also defined for responses, meaning "If you want to use a cached copy of this in future, you must first check with me that it is up-to-date (i.e. perform revalidation)". – clime Mar...

...ecifics of the database design. Collections (or buckets or however they call it in different DBs) are not the same thing as security schemas in RDBMS despite they behave as container for documents they are useless for applying good tenant separation. I couldn't find NoSQL database that can apply s...

...o there's some security there, but physical access to a phone could potentially allow access to the values. If possible I'd consider modifying the server to use a negotiated token for providing access, something like OAuth. Alternatively you may need to construct some sort of cryptographic store, t...

...ava.io.Serializable but with custom-written mechanisms to perform the marshalling and unmarshalling functions (you need to implement readExternal and writeExternal methods on your class). This gives you the means to get around the reflection performance bottleneck. In recent versions of Java (1.3 ...

...bjects - so the hash code is not necessarily unique. A dictionary is a really cool data structure that trades a higher memory footprint in return for (more or less) constant costs for Add/Remove/Get operations. It is a poor choice for iterating over though. Internally, a dictionary contains an arr...
