What I'm trying to do is set up the Visual Studio solution so that when they build the solution each projects deployment is handled in the post-build event to that developers virtual machine.
What I'd really like to do is give ownership of those scripts to the individual developer as well so that they own their post build steps and they don't have to be the same for everyone.
A couple of questions:
- Is a post build event the place to execute this type of deployment operation? If not what is the best place to do it?
- What software, tools, or tutorials/blog posts are available to assist in developing an automatic deployment system that supports these scenarios? | visual-studio | build | deployment | team | null | null | open | Best way to do Visual Studio post build deployment in a team environment?

We have about 5 roles in the application with certain roles filling out a specific profile value. Example is the role is store and the profile value is store number. Obviously if you work for headquarters you don't have a store number so I don't care about it. Each store can also have more than 1 employee.
I need to get the users for a specific store number. Meaning I would only want the users that belong to store number 101 to show up that list. The way that we are doing this now is going through all the users and adding the users that fit the criteria into a sorted list. This functions but the problem is when you start passing about 3,000 users or so. It just becomes to slow to be any good.
How would you guys find a different way of doing it? I really don't want to do custom stored procedure or changing the underlying classes because I'm afraid of it all breaking on a later version of .net that they change membership and roles. | .net | membership | and | roles | null | null | open | Grabbing Users with a specific value in their profile

I'd like to display the items in a way that's UI-compatible with Sharepoint (fits in with its surroundings.)
I'm aware of the "DataFormWebPart" but was unable to get one working properly. It requires a valid DataSource and I was unable to build one from the results of a web service call... Part of the problem is that my web service wrappers don't expose the XML return info, rather I have a bunch of deserialized objects. There doesn't seem to be an easy way to turn actual objects into a datasource, or populate a "generic" datasource from object data.
I could use an SPGridView to get the same UI, but the grid control doesn't have much in the way of smarts -and- it forces every field into its own column. I'd prefer to render each list item as a single cell with complex rendering (for instance the way that StackOverflow shows its lists of questions.) I'd also like to get as much of the Sharepoint-standard UI as possible, such as the sorting, filtering, and paging controls.
So, first: Has anyone here written a Sharepoint control that does this, and if so do you have sample code to share? If not: am I overlooking some useful control, whether MS-supplied or available in an external library?
Thanks!

| 2008-08-05 | 4 |
| 2008-08-07 | 23 |
I would like to pad the data to fill in the missing days with zero-count entries.
I slapped together a really awkward (and almost certainly buggy) workaround with an array of days-per-month and some math, but there has to be something more straightforward either on the mysql or perl side.

I have an existing Dynamic Web Application project in Eclipse. When I created the project, I specified 'Default configuration for Apache Tomcat v6' under the 'Configuration' drop down.
It's a month or 2 down the line, and I would now like to change the configuration to Tomcat 'v5.5'. (This will be the version of Tomcat on the production server.)
I have tried the following steps (without success):
- I selected `Targeted Runtimes` under the Project `Properties`
The `Tomcat v5.5` option was disabled and The UI displayed this message:
`If the runtime you want to select is not displayed or is disabled you may need to uninstall one or more of the currently installed project facets.`
- I then clicked on the `Uninstall Facets...` link.
Under the `Runtimes` tab, only `Tomcat 6` displayed.
For `Dynamic Web Module`, I selected version `2.4` in place of `2.5`.
Under the `Runtimes` tab, `Tomcat 5.5` now displayed.
The UI also displayed this message:
`Cannot change version of project facet Dynamic Web Module to 2.4.`
The `Finish` button was disabled - so I reached a dead-end.
I CAN successfully create a NEW Project with a Tomcat v5.5 configuration. For some reason, though, it will not let me downgrade' an existing Project.
As a work-around, I created a new Project and copied the source files from the old Project. Nonetheless, the work-around was fairly painful and somewhat clumsy.
Can anyone explain how I can 'downgrade' the Project configuration from 'Tomcat 6' to 'Tomcat 5'? Or perhaps shed some light on why this happened?
Thanks

Django is a very productive framework for building content-heavy sites; the best I've tried and a breath of fresh air compared to some of the Java monstrosities out there.

I understand that controls have no "lifetime" in ASP.NET, and therefore must be re-initialized on each and every page load. We overcome this by persisting the objects values/parameters to the ViewState.
Many articles I read therefore suggest not using PostBack since this can add considerable overhead to the Page. **I am not looking for how to disable it, I know that.**
What I am looking for is:

If this is true, then using an array within a scenario that requires a lot of element activity is contra-indicated due to memory and cup utilization, correct?
If that is the case, shouldn't you try to avoid using an array as much as possible when you will be adding a lot of elements? Should you use iStringMap instead? If so, what happens if you need more than 2 dimensions AND need to add a lot of element additions do you just take the performance hit or is there something else that should be used?

You can assume I'm competent in C++, and advanced in C (for what good that'll do me). I understand inheritance, polymorphism, etc so OO concepts aren't going to be a huge problem.
Let's say I've been given a task to prototype a quick and dirty program that won't be much different than what I could do in access in a short time.
- It'll have a DB with 5-6 tables (mostly small, a few with have several thousand rows but only 4 or so columns, etc)
- I'll need to have forms generated dynamically from one of the DBs
- The results of the forms will be stored in another table
- The DB isn't multiuser
Basically your run of the mill access app... except without access. I'm sure I can muddle my way through and create horrendously bad code, but I'm equally sure lots of people here can give me a push in the right direction (tutorials, wizards, info, differences and killers moving from C/C++ to C#, etc).
Is there a simple DB I can plug in to get started aside from mdb, or is that the best choice for this particular nail? I'm aiming for a quick and dependency-less install.
Thanks!

To begin with we're going to implement a tic-tac-toe game that searches the entire game tree and as such plays perfectly. Once we finish that I want to apply the same concepts to a game that has too many positions to evaluate every single one, so that we need to implement a heuristic to evaluate intermediate positions.
The best thing I could think of was [Dots and Boxes][1]. It has the advantage that I can set the board size arbitrarily large to stop him from searching the entire tree, and I can make a very basic scoring function be the number of my boxes minus the number of opponent boxes. Unfortunately this means that for most of the beginning of the game every position will be evaluated equivalently with a score of 0, because it takes quite a few moves before players actually start making boxes.
Does anyone have any better ideas for games? (Or a better scoring function for dots and boxes)?

Lets say we have an ILGenerator named "il" and that currently we have a Nullable<int> on top of the stack, if we want to check whether it has a value then we could emit the following:
var local = il.DeclareLocal(typeof(Nullable<int>));
il.Emit(OpCodes.Stloc, local);

The ldind family of instructions looks promising (particularly ldind_ref) but I can't find sufficient documentation to know whether this would cause boxing of the value, which I suspect it might.

The attribute seems to be removed from the Attributes collection, but it is not removed from XmlDocument.OuterXml.
I guess it is because of the special meaning of this attribute.
