Converting Strings to .NET Objects – IParsable and ISpanParsable
A new feature of C# 11 allows abstract static members with interfaces. This makes it possible to define class methods to be used as a contract with a generic class implementation, e.g. using + and – operators. With .NET 7, numeric types implement many new interfaces. This C# 11 feature is not only about math! The new IParsable and ISpanParsable interfaces allow creating objects from strings. As these interfaces can be used with constraints in generic types, parsing strings to create objects is now an easy task with generic implementations. This article shows implementing both the string and the Span version of the parse interfaces and using them with generic types.

Creating a Windows Service with .NET 6
Windows services are programs that are automatically started when the system starts up, or when the user logs in. They run in the background and can run with a different account than the logged-in user. .NET makes it easy to create Windows services or Linux daemons as shown in this article. Continue reading Creating a Windows Service with .NET 6
Upgrading an ASP.NET Core Web API Project to .NET 6
Upgrading an ASP.NET Core 5 application to .NET 6, all what needs to be done is to change the project file for .NET 6, and update the NuGet packages to the new versions, and you’re done and can build and run the application. However, to take advantage of new features, and reduce the number of source code lines, some things can be changed – as shown in this article. Continue reading Upgrading an ASP.NET Core Web API Project to .NET 6
