Anders Hejlsberg's ObjectDumper.cs version

In order to write a good book I spent a lot of time seeing PDC 05 conference sessions and new webcasts from LINQ Project team members. In this webcast Anders Hejlsberg uses the ObjectDumper assembly to easily produce query results. The ObjectDumper class uses Reflection to automatically find columns specified in the query and to produce a pretty good output with the associated records.

When I tried to replicate the examples shown by Anders in that webcast I received a different output. The version included with the May 2006 CTP release is different from the one used by Anders for his demos. I contacted him and he sent me his ObjectDumpers release.

Here what he said:
Yes, I modified the ObjectDumper slightly to do colorization of the results. Just thought it looked a little better in the demos. I have attached the source in case you're interested.


You can download the source code of the Anders's ObjectDumper class here.
