JURASOURCE | WEBLOG | |     Like, uh, whatever, I guess       Monday, March 08, 2004       [12:49:25 PM] Being the super geek that I apparently am, I took the opportunity over the weekend to work on some code involving the System.IO.FileSystemWatcher. In the end I created a windows service, that basically monitors a directory for input files. When it finds a new input, it sets some parameters, dynamically load the referenced assembly (which provides an implementation of an interface I defined), kicks off a new thread and sets the whole thing running. I'll post more on the specifics later (I learnt quite a lot so would be good to share). Anyway, this post is about Sofware versus Hardware, at least from a protective point of view. As a developer I am easily more attached to my source code than any machine it might run on, for example you can always buy new hardware, but how do you retrieve a weekend of coding? This all flashed through my mind on the way to work earlier as |     ARCHIVES   November 2003 January 2004 February 2004 March 2004 April 2004 May 2004 June 2004
