Random Technology Ramblings

I just finished a WebCast for Microsoft the topic was Best Practices for .NET Development (you can see it at Previously Recorded Webcasts) there were several interesting question.

Q. How do you release as COM object from you .NET generated COM wrapper?
A. Use the Marshal.ReleaseComObject Method.

Q. Is there any naming conventions or guidelines that Microsoft publish?
A. There are guidelines for component developers (Design Guidelines for Class Library Developers) but no coding conventions or guidelines that I am aware of.

There were more questions (they took 45 minuets to answer) I have forgotten most and most were about where the could get the slides (which will be available on www.interknowlogy.com) so unless I remember another interesting that is all.
