I’m a happy fan of Moq. However, it’s sometimes annoying when the parameters do not matter, such as:
mock .Setup(x => x.Method(It.IsAny<Type>(), It.IsAny<AnotherType>(), It.IsAny<YetAnotherType>()) .Return(value);
So I’ve made an extension method so that the parameters will be ignored, so you can write:
mock .SetupIgnoreArgs(x => x.Method(null, null, null) .Return(value);
The code is available at Gist.
I have an idea for 7Pass that I need to put it here so I won’t forget: destruct password. Remember the UK police detained Glenn Greenward and forced him to provide them his passwords? That’s just ridiculous, yet the UK court even later decided that it’s legal for the UK police to do so. This is a clear violation of human rights, but let’s not talk about politics here.
I’d want 7Pass to have a feature to allow user to enter a password that will destroy all databases already registered in 7Pass. The idea is simple: have a special password that if entered by user, 7Pass just pretend that it’s mad and delete the database plus any other preferences, cache, etc… everything. In order for this to not be suspicious, 7Pass certainly will have to have the feature after if user enters a password wrong, let’s say 5 times repeatedly, the database will be removed from the app. The destruct password (configured by user) will simply make 7Pass shows “wrong password too many time, database deleted” immediately. You can always blame the UK police for playing with your phone.
I’m not sure about the capability of file picking in Windows Phone 8.1, but I’d want 7Pass to first overwrite the local cache with random data first, before deleting it, to ensure no recovery attempt is possible, and, if possible, send a file with random data to the source of the database file, to ensure and 3rd party app, or your phone, or the SD card that provided 7Pass with the original database file will also overwrite it with the random data, effectively destroy every possible source for recovery of your passwords.
If my KeePass database is destroyed, I’ll lose almost everything as I never remember any password. KeePass generates my passwords, and you should be that “forgetful” too; otherwise, you’re not using KeePass to its usefulness. UK police can then hack into my brain and not able to find anything, because they toyed with my phone, damn it, don’t touch it.
Hi all,
I’ve had some time this week, partially feeling very exciting about the Mango update.
So far, I’ve managed to implement:
I’ve received repeated issues with 7Pass not able to open the database.
The error descriptions:
My blog have received frequent visits from this thread from PocketPC. Unfortunately, I cannot speak German so I could not sign up for the forums. Chrome was able to machine translate the page though, so I hope that someone will notice this post and have their questions answered here.
You don’t have to type in your database again every time. Whenever your database has changed, no matter it was downloaded from DropBox or your Web server, you can tap and hold on the database, just like how you delete it, and click on update. 7Pass will display a progress bar of the updating progress, and display a download icon when the database is updated. Of course, if the update failed, 7Pass will notify you that the update was not successful, and your database was not updated. When the update fails, the current database is not affected so you can still use your database as normal and update at later time.
When you download your database from DropBox, 7Pass stores the following information about your database:
When you add a new database from your web server, 7Pass stores the following information:
For key file, the download is one time only, since you don’t often update your key file. Updates to the database will not update your keyfile. If you’ve changed your keyfile, please download it again. You don’t have to clear the keyfile before downloading the new keyfile.
So the idea of 7Pass databases handling is that you add the database once, and then the updating will be very simple: tap & hold, then tap on update. That’s all you need to do.
There are some difference between trial and paid version for 7Pass:
The functional of 7Pass is exactly the same between paid and trial version, even bugs. If a trial version has a bug, the paid version have too. Basically, you pay for the app because it doesn’t suck. If it suck, let me know as comments to this blog is not censored or require approval to be displayed. If you’d want to give 7Pass one star rating, let me know first an your issue will be solved much faster than rating it low, as I cannot response to ratings on MartketPlace.
I’d also thank zehlein for introducing 7Pass to others. I hope that 7Pass was useful to him enough that he’ll share it with others.
