There is an opportunity to win a personal license for R #

David Ridgway blogging web2asp.net announced a contest called COOL SNIPPETS . The prize is a user license for ReSharper .

What is snippet (I don’t know what to call it normally in Russian)? On Habré there were already informative articles on this subject - What is Visual Studio .NET snippets? Part one. and Part Two . I use only one so - when developing programs on WPF to create DependencyProperty - propdp (I wrote about this once on my blog). Anyone who knows how much code you need to write for each DependencyProperty , understands how much easier this snippet makes life easier. But I never thought about any other snippet and never used any more. And since I already have a license for R # , I don’t feel sorry to talk about this competition;) (in fact, for participants, on the contrary, it’s more useful to talk about this competition in order to increase my chance of winning, which is lower). The main thing is to share snippet'ami that simplify your development, after, of course, how you send it to the competition - with the public :).

Competition (translation)

')
The idea of ​​the contest is simple:

1. Send an email (in English of course) with your snippet to web2asp@gmail.com and write in a letter why this snippet deserves attention, and why it is needed at all. The subject of the letter should be “Cool Code Snippets”.
2. Announce whether you want or not to remain anonymous (David is going to publish some of the most liked snippets on his blog in the future).
3. In the future, David is going to hold other contests, so he asks you to indicate whether you want to receive information about them.
4. The competition lasts from August 19 to October 19, 2009.

As a result, the letter should look like this:

Name: Carl Coder
I want to be anonymous: yes / no
Mail me about future competitions: yes / no
Code snippet: // obviously
var x = new VeryCoolClass ();
Explanation & Why it's cool:
blah blah blah

The number of licenses for the competition will depend on the number of people involved, for every 100 entries there will be one license. David also published the following rules:

1. One record per person (you can’t send the same snippet several times from different mailboxes).
2. The code should be yours, not developed by the company, in general, you should have the rights to this code.
3. Well, by itself - the email address must be valid and valid.
4. License is for personal use only and is not subject to disclosure or transfer.

Winners will be chosen by judges - Dave's Dev Team. Decisions are not contested.
