Code project

1. CodeProject - EfTidyNet: .NET Wrapper for Tidy library

   “Before I go into details, I want you to know what EfTidy actually is. EfTidy is a wrapper component of Tidy library, and if you don't know what Tidy is, here is a little description:

   "TidyLib is an open source utility for tidying up HTML. Tidy is composed from an HTML parser and an HTML pretty printer. The parser goes to considerable lengths to correct common markup errors. It also provides advice on how to make your pages more accessible to people with disabilities, and can be used to convert HTML content into XML as XHTML. Tidy is W3C open source and available free. It has been successfully compiled on a large number of platforms, and is being integrated into many HTML authoring tools."

   - By Mr. Dave Raggett

   This is the .NET version of the EfTidyCom component (also present on The Code Project). Before moving further, this library is dedicated to the memory of my mother Late Mrs. Saroj Gupta, whom I lost recently (29^th January, 2008), just want to say Mummy!, I love you.

PInvok

1. jaredpar's WebLog - Making PInvoke Easy
2. jaredpar's WebLog - PInvoke Interop Assistant now on CodePlex

   “I'm happy to announce that the PInvoke Interop Assistant tool is now available on CodePlex.  This includes the binaries, source code and the dev authored unit tests. 

   It is hosted on the more general CLR Interop Tools page. 

   http://www.codeplex.com/clrinterop

   I will be actively maintaining this tool in the future and (hopefully) adding more features.  There were several features we cut just before release due to QA costing that I would like to add back (including VS integration, wrapper functions).  

   …”

   Nice! I dig it when developers are brave enough to post their source… Especially for their side, personal, “just because I think it’s cool and wanted to code it” projects.
