ProviderModel.com a Flop?

December 7, 2004 18:37 by matthaw
So back on October 27, 2004, Robert McLaws announced ProviderModel.com. In the announcement, he stated the Interscape USA Provider Model code will be available. So, its now December, and nothing has been done to the site, nor any code released. I ask this, was it a flop? Did Microsoft put their heavy foot down? Is McLaws just too darn busy right now?

I've never really understood all the hype around a simple design pattern that's been around for years.  Why no FactoryPattern.com, or Singleton.net?  Where's the love?

Funny you should comment about this today. Not 30 minutes ago I was cleaning my link collection folder (my desktop) and came across the ProviderModel.com link. Opened it and saw nothing updated since October then deleted the link as another failed attempt at releasing a decent generic framework. I guess for now I'll keep this blog entry's link and see if anyone has a comment about it.

i'd even emailed Robert about it but never heard back... not sure what's going on.



i ended up building my own Provider generic base class/helpers in C# 2.0 anyway...

My life has been rather upended at the moment... just moving into a new place and finishing up a security-related contract... both of which have been eating up my time. I'll release it soon, I promise...



Kirk... why did you build your own base classes in 2.0? They're built into the Framework...
