wijix | SubForum To Be Designed Using the 960 Grid System
SubForum is an open source discussion forum using the ASP.NET MVC framework. However, we are going to use the 960 Grid System to develop the interface. The 960 Grid System is basically web design for 1024×768 display. Word is 800×600 is dead and 960 pixels is the new gold standard. The current interface was put together using css only. We are not putting any of the styling into the controls or aspx pages. All styling will leverage CSS and will not be embedded into any component, control, or page. ... (more)

SubSonic 3.0 is Released - Rob Conery
At some point you need to stop polishing and let it go already – so I did just that today: SubSonic 3.0 is released. This thing took me just about a year to finish up, and a lot of work has gone into it. So, what’s new? Well…A nice Linq engine which parses IQueryable “stuff” into SQL (thanks to Matt Warren’s excellent work with the IQToolkit, which we stole mercilessly). A templating system which allows you to use ActiveRecord, good old Linq in Lin... (more)

wijix | Simple Tag Cloud Implementation for ASP.NET MVC
I read this post by Mikesdotnetting a few days ago when I was trying to implement a Tag Cloud for our open source forum project SubForum. Although it was a good post and got me started on how to do it, I found it a bit complex for what I needed. One of the complications that I saw was obviously the Entity Framework and the data layer that Mike talked about to build the Tag Cloud. The data I needed was quite simple and didn’t need to be that complex. I decided to implement a simple ASP.NET MVC Tag Cloud ... (more)

wijix | Use Castle Windsor to Read Your Config Files Automatically
I have not updated my code to the latest Castle Windsor. I am still using the the previous version. With it you can setup your .config files to be parsed automatically and stored for you. All you have to do is setup an interface and initialize a class. From that point on if you need to add anything to your storage (app.config or web.config) you just have to update the interface.

wijix | How To Sort From Left To Right with SQL Server 2005 and above
A few months back I wrote a web service that generates lottery numbers for the Texas Lottery. The concept is that the numbers are not truly random; otherwise, there would be a uniform spread for the numbers. Also, some numbers are hot numbers and you are more likely to pick a winner using the hottest numbers. (more)

Recently a bug was submitted that said they could not tab or shift tab through the grid and have it select the next or previous row automatically when the beginning or end of the row is hit. (more)

Regional Conflicts
We have all come to love our IDE features and take them from granted nowadays. Features like intellisense, code-complete, refactoring and code organization and of course the use of Regions. The #region and #endregion keywords basically provide the ability to hide code and collapse it into a short word or phrase provided at the beginning of the block with the IDE showing a plus sign to expand and collapse the region. Eg: #region Public Methods #endregion (more)

wijix | Var Wars – Abuse of the CSharp var
Just because a compiler can infer the type does not mean a human should have to be forced to do it when reading it. If we wrote code just to make compilers happy we should be writing Assembly. Why then use an Object Oriented Language? But since code is written for developers to be able to read and maintain it and not just for compilers to compile it, it should be as descriptive and readable as possible. (more)

$180 off Orasis Mapping Studio... just $69 this month
The guys over at Orasis Software have dropped the price of their Mapping Studio for this month only. It is only $69 dollars for the next month. Normally it is $450. It is their 1 year anniversary and they want some business I guess. I bought my copy the second I learned of it. In case you didn't know their tool VISUALLY generates pure ADO.NET in either C# or VB.NET. They do not force you to reference any third party dlls because it is straight ADO.NET. Your code is your code. Just click and build. (more)

With the type of databases that can be set to nightly or even weekly recovery points, the copy database task is ideal and a quick way to setup you DR services. Many times the copy database task is overlooked for tasks such as disaster/recovery and test or development resources. This task available is very useful for databases that primarily hold meta data or are relatively small in size. The company I am ... (more)

WCF REST Starter Kit: Paste XML as Types - Aaron Skonnard - Pluralsight Blogs

WCF REST Starter Kit: Paste XML as Types - Aaron Skonnard - Pluralsight Blogs
One of the things people often complain about when building REST clients is the lack of proxy generation support. Although to be fair, it's usually only heard from those coming from a SOAP/WSDL background (some would argue it's completely unnecessary). Achieving this typically requires support for a metadata language like WADL or WSDL 2.0, which are not yet widely supported nor considered standards. The WCF REST Starter Kit Preview 2 provides a nice solution to this dilemma for .NET developers. They pr... (more)

Daniel Cazzulino's Blog : Announcing the free ViewModel Tool
If you're doing any kind of WPF development, you probably read at least some of the links in this entry on WPF Patterns. One common theme across all variants of the ViewModel pattern is that it always has to implement the INotifyPropertyChanged interface, which is the core interface driving the whole data-binding infrastructure in both WinForms and WPF. Implementing this interface is quite boring and repetitive, more so if you're using C# 3.5 automatic properties:pub... (more)

A Gotcha Writing Messages - Commonality

A Gotcha Writing Messages - Commonality
System.ServiceModel.Channels.Message objects. These are fairly flexible, though the API can be a bit confusing. One of the things I was doing was making sure I was doing proper streaming of large messages, which in WCF relies on the XmlReader and XmlWriter classes. What is not be very obvious at first is that it is possible to receive a Message object and still do streaming: Basically when the received message is created, it takes an XmlReader that is only consumed when you ask WCF to write the message...
