Microsoft has begun to launch a whole suite of changes to how we do web development. I recommend you take 5 minutes of your time and review the upcoming changes. They will solve a ton of issues with Ajax and web development in general.

Im fine with the Euros taking credit for this. It still means that Office 2007, Sharepoint 2007 ( the only one im concerned with) , Server 08 , SQL 08 will have code samples to really take advantage of their services. Sounds interesting nonetheless.

It's all about "full compliance with European law." and making MORE money for the M$ coffers.

The jury is out on how useful those 30K pages will be. I wouldn't expect a lot in the way of tutorials and I wouldn't expect it to be immutable either....

Im next going to really tackle WCF, as after doing a lot of reading on this and trying samples, it looks promising.

http://me.dium.com/

I spoke with a developer over at me.dium. They have some pretty nice web 2.0 software that lets you connect with people as they browse on the internet. It skips security sites ( anything with https or things like gmail) and only shows sites that are in the public view. This is a great tool if you have like 5 friends that you want to surf with or if you are in development and you want to view the page a developer is working ( testing) on. Its also a great tool to discover new friends who look at the sites you do. I was just browsing a blog of one of the developers and the next thing I know, Im talking to him about adding the widget to rainbow.

I have the widget on display at www.ramseur.net

Subject: Microsoft changes resource files.

Eramseur

Offline

Hello All,

Our good friends at microsoft decided to change how resource files are used in .NET 2.0. Miguel and his team discovered this and credit should be directed at them. They ran some test to try to conform the rainbow resx files to the standards but still couldnt compile so they recommend you remove these files if you are going to update your servers with the new patch ( which is given through windows update). As soon as you apply the windows update patch, your portal ( and other applications that use resource files ) will break.

MGFs write up : http://community.rainbowportal.net/forums/permalink/14813/14813/ShowThread.aspx#14813

Devs

Im zipping this up now. I tested it with a SQL Server 2005 express file. As long as you have SQL Express you can just change the name or keep .\SQLExpress. It comes pre-installed but you can install it to other dbs. You might need to compile it on your own environment for best results. Ill also be releasing a binary version that will be even easier to install. I recommend that if you deploy this into production that you run it precompiled. This makes for certain that all your code is without error and is the prod method of choice. This version can "in theory" migrate a 1.6 site if you "in theory" perform the following actions : Copy over your design folders from your 1.6 to the 2.0 design folder, Copy over your portals directory, Copy over any custom modules . This process should work as ONLY the code changed and not the DB so no scripts on your db should need to be ran if your version is at least 1.6.0.1880e. I do not know the what will happen if you try to do it with an 2.0.0.1880f db. We need the users help to find all the nooks and crannies.

Oh btw : http://rainbow.googlecode.com/files/rainbow2.0.0.1880e.7z

Cheers, Ill be starting a blog and a forum entry so we can report issues. We will be getting a subversion up so if we want to version changes on this version as there is a list of known bugs. I placed this in the readme.

Just wanted to share this link with you that allows a good experience around SQL Server . Say youve made your cool test app and tis working on your box. Then you want to post it to the world on shared hosting account. Well its easy to put your app there but the data is always a pain. I read on scotts blog today that there is a new tool that makes a .SQL file and this recreates EVERYTHING in your db to your host provider. You can also give this file to your provider and they can execute it or you can if you have privs.
