Nick Craver on Twitter: “I see a lot of MyEnum.Member.ToString() in code reviews across various projects – instead you should use: nameof(MyEnum.Member)”

Posted by jpluimers on 2020/06/25

I love nameof (and wish many more languages had a similar feature), but since it got introduced so late in the C# language, there is still a lot of old idiom going around. Luckily most of that are not string literals, but you see the occasional reminder to get rid of that cruft: [WayBack] Nick Craver on Twitter: “I see a lot of MyEnum.Member.ToString() in code reviews across various projects – instead you should use: nameof(MyEnum.Member)”.

Luckily, there is a Roslyn analyser for it: [WayBack] Andy Edinborough on Twitter: “Roslynator: https://t.co/3LDUG9WRvE… “.

[WayBack] GitHub – JosefPihrt/Roslynator: A collection of 190+ analyzers and 190+ refactorings for C#, powered by Roslyn.

[WayBack] Antão Almada on Twitter: “I use Enums.NET https://t.co/YaIZWpYVxJ… “ which is a cool library that I’ve used a lot:

Posted by jpluimers on 2020/06/25

[WayBack] browser – Clearing old browsing data in Chrome instead of newer data – Super User had a few possibilities, but eHistory disappeared from the Chrome store (apparently due to some unknown violation), so the way that works best now is to hack the History database which is a SQLite file as mentioned in

[WayBack] How can I delete all web history that matches a specific query in Google Chrome – Super User: For literal values of “query”…You can even query your Chrome history using SQL. (Firefox too: see below. Of course, the appropriate file path will have to be changed).

If you really want you can hack the history frame chrome://history-frame/: [WayBack] How can I delete all web history that matches a specific query in Google Chrome – Super User
