Xamarin Studio Key bindings for the Xcode user

I was tired of switching machines using Xamarin Studio and having to reset all my keybindings. Because I'm so used to Xcode keybindings, I did my best to make the same similar key bindings for XS, so here you can grab them, make them your own:

Gradient UINavigationBar in Swift

Here's how to make a gradient NavBar in Swift, taken mainly from this <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/494982/uinavigationbar-tintcolor-with-gradient">SO post</a>: First create an extension for CAGradientLayer Here's how to make a gradient NavBar in Swift:
First create an extension for CAGradientLayer (need to add Quartz library)
extension CAGradientLayer { class func gradientLayerForBounds(bounds: CGRect) -> CAGradientLayer { var layer = CAGradientLayer() layer.frame = bounds layer.colors = [UIColor.redColor().CGColor, UIColor.blueColor().CGColor] return layer } } Use whatever colors suit your needs.
Then in your overriden NavController class (so many ways to do this, I chose to set it up in the NavController subclass used everywhere in my app),
private func imageLayerForGradientBackground() -> UIImage { var updatedFrame = self.navigationBar.bounds // take into account the status bar …

Simple Xamarin iOS Keychain code

I had searched and found a few decent examples of KeyChain (iOS) usage in XamarinI had searched and found a few decent examples of KeyChain (iOS) usage in Xamarin but not exactly the code I was happy with.So this is more of a mashup of pieces of the good code I found formed into one utility class.The key essentials are find an existing key, create a new key, delete a previous key. The examples I saw tried to do all of this in one method, it's better to break things up, have one method per responsilibity.using Security; using Foundation; public class KeyChain { public string ValueForKey(string key) { var record = ExistingRecordForKey (key); SecStatusCode resultCode; var match = SecKeyChain.QueryAsRecord(record, out resultCode); if (resultCode == SecStatusCode.Success) return NSString.FromData (match.ValueData, NSStringEncoding.UTF8); else return String.Empty; } public void SetValueForKey(string val…

Simple C# Dependency Resolver, or the beginning of your own IoC container

It's kind of pointless to write your own IoC container in C# seeing that there'sIt's kind of pointless to write your own IoC container in C# seeing that there's probably a 100 out there at this point. With that said, there are occasions like the project I'm in now where you plan on some point pulling in a popular controller, but you need something basic to register and resolve instances of interfaces throughout the existing code base in the mean time.The idea is this:You have viewModels or controllers that need services, clients, other controllers, whatever.You could just not care about clean code and do this:public class MainViewModel() { private readonly IService _service; private readonly IDataSource _source; public MainViewModel() { _service = new Service(); _source = new Source(service); } void go() { _service.CallAPI(); } } No big deal. But you start doing this in multiple controllers, viewModels, and then…
