Guidance Automation Extensions and Guidance Automation Toolkit 2010

The Guidance Automation Extensions + Guidance Automation Toolkit 2010 were released last week.

The Guidance Automation Extensions (GAX) 2010 enables Visual Studio 2010 to run guidance packages, such as those included in Software Factories or third-party tools. You can use the Guidance Automation Toolkit (GAT) 2010 to create or customize guidance packages.

The Guidance Automation Toolkit (GAT) 2010 is an extension to Visual Studio 2010 that allows developers to create rich, integrated developer environments that incorporate reusable assets such as frameworks, components, and patterns. The resulting guidance packages are composed of templates, wizards, and recipes that help developers build solutions in a way that is consistent with the architecture guidance.

When we took a look through Podman Desktop, we noticed that Podman had stopped running and returned the following error message: Error: Command execution failed with exit code 125 Here are the steps we tried to fix the issue: We started by running podman info to get some extra details on what could be wrong: >podman info OS: windows/amd64 provider: wsl version: 5.3.1 Cannot connect to Podman. Please verify your connection to the Linux system using `podman system connection list`, or try `podman machine init` and `podman machine start` to manage a new Linux VM Error: unable to connect to Podman socket: failed to connect: dial tcp 127.0.0.1:2655: connectex: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. That makes sense as the podman VM was not running. Let’s check the VM: >podman machine list NAME         ...

Cleaner switch expressions with pattern matching in C#

Ever find yourself mapping multiple string values to the same result? Being a C# developer for a long time, I sometimes forget that the C# has evolved so I still dare to chain case labels or reach for a dictionary. Of course with pattern matching this is no longer necessary. With pattern matching, you can express things inline, declaratively, and with zero repetition. A small example I was working on a small script that should invoke different actions depending on the environment. As our developers were using different variations for the same environment e.g.  "tst" alongside "test" , "prd" alongside "prod" .  We asked to streamline this a long time ago, but as these things happen, we still see variations in the wild. This brought me to the following code that is a perfect example for pattern matching: The or keyword here is a logical pattern combinator , not a boolean operator. It matches if either of the specified pattern...
