Kovan's C# Code for FREE

[kovan]

in this thread I will post functions that i write in c# to help anyone else that might need them
all code will be writen in c#, although some of you are thinking "but i want vb.net code" no fear, there is 2 options

1. I will provide the c# raw functions (copy n paste into yoru app)
2. Provide DLL's that you can use in in c# apps or vb.net apps
(code will still be in c# in the dll but of course it can be used in vb)
3. if someone requests a function to actually want a copy in vb.net code, am sure that wont be a major problem

if you have a function that YOU wrote please post it
(make sure it has a lot of comments for people to undrestand and so on)

so far i have released

1. 2 XML Functions

at the end, they will be compiled into classes
each class containing functions that relate to the class name
like
myFile.cs will contain all the functions related to Files
myDatabase.cs will contain all the functions related to databases and so on

and putting them in a namepsace is not a problem
