Installing Application Center Test... and nothing else

giuliov — Thu, 07 Jul 2005 12:59:00 GMT

Can't believe. It worked at first try: installed Application Center Test without all other stuff in Visual Studio.NET 2003. Type

D:\ENGLISH\VS.NET2003\setup\setup.exe /NO_BSLN_CHECK

Then unselect everything but ACT [:O].

ASP.NET 1.1 debugging

Using the Visual Studio .NET 2003 Debugger with ASP.NET Applications

I saw something similar two or three years ago in some internal FAQ, but this is very well written and complete. In the past you had a bunch of KB articles (e.g. 306172), useful but in some cases you had to go back and forth before resolving your own issue.

Please, rate it well.

Upcoming notes

giuliov — Tue, 19 Apr 2005 11:14:00 GMT

This blog is taking a shape: the notes here are solutions and tips found in my daily job, solving real‑life customer projects. So I was thinking at some old arguments I discussed in other places, and now I have a (sort of) ‘editorial plan’ that includes some recent experiences:

Some practical advice on Unicode and encoding
Session locking in ASP.NET
Auto-refresh and post-back in ASP.NET
Web hourglass
UI navigation design
Cookie resetting

Script for network configuration

giuliov — Thu, 07 Apr 2005 09:46:00 GMT

This is a simple batch to force a static IP address on my machines.

ECHO interface ip > "%temp%\z.netsh"
ECHO set address "Local Area Connection" static 192.168.100.173 255.255.255.0 192.168.100.1 3 >> "%temp%\z.netsh"
ECHO set dns "Local Area Connection" static 151.99.125.1 >> "%temp%\z.netsh"
ECHO add dns "Local Area Connection" 151.99.0.100 >> "%temp%\z.netsh"

netsh -f "%temp%\z.netsh"

pause

Useful when you have to change network often... and there is no DHCP server.

VPC Tip

giuliov — Fri, 25 Mar 2005 02:20:00 GMT

You can redirect the My Virtual Machines folder (usually in My Documents) by setting the environment variable myvirtualmachines to the desired path.

HOWTO: Using IE proxy settings (including credentials!)

giuliov — Wed, 23 Mar 2005 11:40:00 GMT

Very easy but hard to find.

System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol proxy = ...
System.Net.WebProxy ieProxy = System.Net.WebProxy.GetDefaultProxy();
if (ieProxy != null && ieProxy.Address != null)
{
   ieProxy.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
   proxy.Proxy = ieProxy;
}
proxy.PreAuthenticate = true;
