WiX is great if you want to target Windows Installer as your installer platform. That's generally a good idea since WI supports things like GPO-based...
... You shouldn't say things like that. Especially not when the arse is falling out of the global economy, and conflicts are sprouting up around the world....
so found in our code base we use a lot of regex.compiled options. i had to use a regex the other day in a loop (albeit small) and decided to dig around to see...
I don't have any opinion on whether it's worth it for you, but it is possible to pre-compile regexes into a permanent assembly and then use that from your...
FWIW, In Jeff Friedl's "Mastering Regular Expressions" book [1] he actually did some measurement of perf stuff for compiled vs. interpreted .NET regex and...

Well, the most obvious is: once you have the OS installed to your liking, back it up, and start with the restore next time. ... Well, the most obvious is: once...
Hi Brad, It’s a partial solution. It could reduce the frequency of having to reset all the permissions. I might come round to it but somehow I don’t like...
If your data files are all in a centralized location, then right click Properties on the root folder and propagate the changes down into all children. If...

... I strongly suspect that your old SID is not granting rights specifically to the files, rather it's granted to the OWNER of the files. So all you really...
Yes – I thought that too. In fact I *thought* that creator/Owner always had full control over an object. However: I made myself an administrator temporarily...
Hi, I haven't used it, but SetACL[1] seems to be your friend, found when trying to recall the name of another tool I used to use to add permissions recursively...
I have a little .exe that creates a text file (some ASCII art). In a pre-build event on VS 2008, I want to run the exe, get the text it creates, and update a...
Hi Steve, Is the const a hard requirement, or could you use a resource? If so, just link the ASCII file as an embedded resource, and have a pre-build step...
You might want to consider creating a custom tool for VS instead of a pre-build step. Then your ascii art generator would work like the resource compiler etc. ...

It might not apply, but I think you can use SVN (and perhaps other SCMs?) to add a "check out" hook to update the files. /Patrik On Tue, Dec 9, 2008 at 6:57...

Is there a way to create a stable ram disk in Vista Ultimate 64? I've seen a few apps here and there, but don't trust any I've seen so far. I'd like to create...
