Three Approaches To Coding Avalon Applications Rob Relyea just posted up a little piece that details the three different approaches developers can take to code their Avalon applications. I’m not sure if he was working on it prior to this, but there was a question in the Avalon NG earlier today about how a Delphi person can code Avalon applications and this answers that perfectly.

Build PDB Information For Release Builds Using An Upgraded nAnt Solution Task I’m sure we all know the advantages of having PDB information for our release builds by now, right? Well nAnt’s <solution> task doesn’t support this today because it only supports the same features as VS.NET which only use the compiler’s /debug switch with the +|- options. The .NET 1.1 version of the managed code compilers […] Share this:FacebookTwitterLinkedInMoreRedditWhatsAppSkypeEmail
Tip for Building Unicode QueryString’s From JavaScript Here’s a tidbit of info that will hopefully help some people out. It took me a couple stabs at Google keyword combinations to find the answer. Basically the problem was that we’re taking user input in an HTML page which can include Unicode characters and need to pass that on the query string to an […] Share this:FacebookTwitterLinkedInMoreRedditWhatsAppSkypeEmail
Last Developer… In Canada Anyway This is a great idea and I’m definitely interested in entering, but unfortunately it’s only open to Canadian contestants. When’s the North American version coming? Share this:FacebookTwitterLinkedInMoreRedditWhatsAppSkypeEmail
Thoughts on VS.NET 2005 Class Designer’s Code-Formatting I came across this post and figured I’d offer up my own opinions as well… The default formatting would honestly keep me from using the class designer for anything but reverse engineering and visualizing the code I have already hand written. Even though everyone has a different way of doing it, the structure of the code […] Share this:FacebookTwitterLinkedInMoreRedditWhatsAppSkypeEmail

You Know VS.NET 2003 Is Going To Blow Up When…. You know VS.NET 2003 is going to blow up when you look at the process with cordbg and see way too many “Compilation Domains”: PID=0x910 (2320) Name=C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio .NET 2003Common7IDE ID=113 AppDomainName=Compilation Domain ID=112 AppDomainName=Compilation Domain ID=111 AppDomainName=Compilation Domain ID=110 AppDomainName=Compilation Domain ID=109 AppDomainName=Compilation Domain ID=108 AppDomainName=Compilation Domain ID=107 AppDomainName=Compilation Domain ID=106 AppDomainName=Compilation […] Share this:FacebookTwitterLinkedInMoreRedditWhatsAppSkypeEmail
A Rebuttal Of Mr. Grimes’ Avalon -> Win32 Ties Accusation I’m sure we’ve all seen Richard’s commentary on the state of .NET as well as Dan Fernandez’s rebuttal. If not, go read those first. Since the subject has already been talked to death from the .NET framework perspective, the only thing that I wanted to address is the assertion that Richard makes in his follow up comment […] Share this:FacebookTwitterLinkedInMoreRedditWhatsAppSkypeEmail
Shipping Apples Vs. Oranges Ok, so I was reading /.’s coverage of Mark Lucovsky jumping ship from MS to Google. Naturally I expected the typical anti-MS spin and of course it was there, but in the form of link to an entry on Mark’s blog about Microsoft not being very good at shipping software. In this entry Mark analyzes the way […] Share this:FacebookTwitterLinkedInMoreRedditWhatsAppSkypeEmail
JScript[.NET] Support for E4X? This post goes out to whoever in Microsoft might be able to shed some light on the subject: When, if at all, can we expect to see support for E4X in JScript[.NET]? My main reason for asking is because Mozilla recently added support for it to their ECMAScript implementation and I can already see the same […] Share this:FacebookTwitterLinkedInMoreRedditWhatsAppSkypeEmail
