Ok. What does it mean to build a dll locally? Also do you want me to program Parse and Tryparse, If so what do you want them to do? I have learned c++ but i havent had much experience proggramming with it so i don't understand some things.

Numsgil:
Each module spits out compiled binaries to the "bin" directory, and these get checked in.  So in theory you don't have to build any binaries except the ones you're currently modifying.

For the unit testing bug, it's a bug I see only when using the binary that's checked in to the repository.  If I build the UnitTestSharp.dll locally, it works like it should.  So first step for that one would be to verify that you can reproduce it.  I was building Azimuth (the math library) when I first saw it, so just "rebuild" the Azimuth solution and check the output and see if it matches up with what's in that bug report.

For the parsing, see clicky for an example for a float.  It basically converts a string representation to an actual instance of an object.  I just want something similar for Vectors.  There's some methods set up in the code right now, but they just throw exceptions saying they aren't implemented for Vector.  You need to write tests to verify that they work (check out the Scalar class's unit tests for an idea of what to test for and how to set up tests), and then actually make them work (ideally in that order, because it's considered good practice).  It'll make more sense if you look at the code in Azimuth, I think.

I can break this down in to more step-by-step instructions, if you need.  Part of the effort is just understanding Visual Studio and the basic layout of all the modules and how things fit together a bit.  Browse the source a bit and see if it makes any sense or not.

Ok i cant start until friday due to my internet, but then i will look at it.

When you say you built UnitTestSharp.dll locally do you mean on your pc and then if it isnt local you are just useing the version of it that is in the repository online? All im saying is what does it mean when you say you build it locally? Also i have slow internet most of the time (about 20kbps) so when i go to upload a modified version of DB3 would it take a long time?

Numsgil:
You might want to read this to get some background on how repositories work, that sort of thing.

I checked out the Azimuth.dll from the repository, and on my machine it produces the bug.  Recompiling it from source to create a working copy magically fixes the bug.  The source used to build the assembly in both cases is identical, so it's a mystery to me :)
