This repository contains a collection of unrelated utilities usinbg the ShomreiTorah frameworks.

#OmerCreator This simple utility creates a ספירת העומר chart as a Word document, using Word interop. (requires Microsoft Word)

#ShomreiTorah.Backup This utility backs up tables from a SQL database to XML. It is configured in ShomreiTorahConfig.xml and is intended to be run as a scheduled task.

#ShomreiTorah.Singularity.Designer This program generates strongly-typed Singularity DataContext classes.
It stores the table schema and SQL mappings in its own XML format, and generates C# (only) row classes for each table. It does not actually use Singularity at all. It uses DevExpress WinForms UI components.

#ShomreiTorah.UpdatePublisher This utility publishes updates to the ShomreiTorah update system (implemented in ShomreiTorah.Common.dll). It reads the (encrypted) private key from a separate XML file. By default, it looks for the latest (by filename) .private-key file in the Config directory within the source tree. This XML file is generated by the Configurator and should be kept private. Updates are uploaded to the FTP server specified in ShomreiTorahConfig.xml.

#YKLookup This application looks up people in the master directory (connecting to the database from ShomreiTorahConfig.xml), and displays address details as well as a map.
