Pop3RT
Today I updated my POP3 client library for use in Windows Runtime.
The work for convert the existing .NET 4.5 code for support WinRT was more easier than I thought. In fact almost the entire code base is the same for .NET4.5 and WinRT, the only that I needed for reuse the code is a little bit of condicional compilation magic, and reimplement the socket layer using new WinRT Socket API.
You can download the library from NuGet, or if you want to browse the code go to GitHub repository.
Enjoy it!
New Address For This Blog
After more than 7 years of publishing my blog at weblogs.shockbyte.com.ar/rodolfof I decided to change the address to shockyte.net and upgrade the platform where it is hosted. I hope this is a new beginning to write more often again.
The migration process was quite successful and all previous addresses, files, and content are still valid (just missed the comments
).
Thank you very much to all who follow me for so many years!
