.NET and destructors!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's (LOSFormatter) pretty interesting thing actually - I need to do more communication between machines and it was rather annoying to create XML for class then manually copy from object data into it,

The only thing that bothers me is that it seems to be part of ASP.NET - something I am not using as I don't want to depend upon IIS - I've written my own mini webserver and it has got some pretty big advantages one of which is portability - works fine on other platforms.

Have you come across with anything similar that is noT ASP.NET related? I think I've seen somewhere possibility to mark classes as serialiseable to save/load them.

Sure you can mark classes as Serializable, then place attributes on properties etc to mark them as Elements, Attributes etc, and implement custom serialisation... example

But, I would think you could use LOSFormatter and ignore IIS and ASP.NET (I dont believe its dependent on IIS being installed - Ive used the ASP.Net Cache object in a Win Forms application simply by referencing the System.Web dll, and then creating an instance of the HTTPContext object. As long as you are simply calling internal methods of System.Web.UI - rather than handling HTTP requests etc - I would think you would be fine.

I wouldnt place a bet though ...

Well managed to get through to the third and final interview stage... really like the feel of the company, very technically oriented, jeans and t-shirts and flexi time but work hard... and then right afterwards I viewed a flat thats a five minute walk away and took it, lovely brand new place and £200 a month less than the one im in now...

A successful day
