If you want to know the version of currently executing managed assembly, you can use Reflection.Assembly.
Here is code snippet which can be used to do get managed assembly version.
private string GetVersion()
{
return Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().Version.ToString();
}
This code snippet demonstrates how to replace string in file using perl. This perl script takes in an input file, replaces the all string foo with bar.
my $file = $ARGV[0];
my $filetmp = "$ARGV[0].tmp";
open (INPUT, "< $file") or die("Unable to open $file");
open (TMP, "> $filetmp") or die("Unable to open $filetmp");
while(<INPUT>) {
if(/foo/) {
s/foo/bar/; # replace foo with bar
}
print TMP $_;
}
close(INPUT);
close(TMP);
rename $filetmp, $file;
There is an easier way to get last element on a split operation, save split result to an array and use $array[-1] and this will access last element of the arrays.
$strings=”foo,bar,test”;
my @fields = split(/,/, $strings);
print $fields[-1] ; # the last str in $strings
This note is for a trick to use Q and E to escape characters for regular expression. You will find it very useful when you do string substitution and your pattern contains characters like slashes or backslashes .

Say you have a directory d:bin and you want to add it to path environment at the beginning of your Perl script. Following code will do the trick.
my $dir="d:\bin";
$ENV{PATH}.=";$dir";
Then $dir will be included in new $ENV{PATH}
In Perl, you can execute external commands using system() or ``. However, system and `` does not redirect command output to console and this results people who runs your perl script can't see it. This also make debug much harder. Perl does not have a build in switch that equals to batch scripts’ "@echo on", however this can be worked around by creating a ExecuteCommand subroutine.
sub ExecuteCommand {
my $cmd= $_;
my @cmdoutput = `$cmd`;
for $line (@cmdoutput) {
print $line;
}
Now just change your code from system($command) or `$command` to ExecuteCommand($command) and you will see all command output are redirected to console. Continue reading
I searched google for how to validate URL in C# and most results say using a regular expression. Eventually I found Uri.TryCreate which is a built in method in C# to check if a string is a valid URL
Uri uri = null;
if (!Uri.TryCreate(url, UriKind.Absolute, out uri) || null == uri)
{
//Invalid URL
return false;
}

Tired of code like this?
public string Foo
{
get { return foo; }
set
{
if (value == null)
value = String.Empty;
foo = value;
}
}
public string Bar
{
get { return bar; }
set
{
if (value == null)
value = String.Empty;
bar = value;
}
}
