Rapidly Evolving Design

Posted: 05 Jan 2010 07:47 AM PST

The problem with using a blog to track a rapidly evolving design, is that blogs don't make for very fluid documents; the unwritten rule is that once posted, you ought not go back and substantially alter a post. Matching Blog Posts to Discussions I do...( read more )...(read more)

Building an Awesome Community Web Site

Posted: 05 Jan 2010 07:49 AM PST

Some time ago I started playing with the idea of organizing an Open Source project to build a CMS. It generated a lot of interest, but the "expectations" seemed overwhelming to me. NETOOP is not dead, I still plan to build it but I intend to build version one myself (On MVC) and release it as FREE source. In the mean time, I'm planning what content to build for 2010 and have decided to do a collection of projects based on building a great community site. I'm going to write the code and record videos detailing the implementation or the parts. I hope YOU will suggest and discuss features with me here on my blog! I will release the code as FREE/MSPL at different milestones. The "design" that I'm starting with is live at www.MMARingside.org It's...(read more)

Make the TreeView control to be MVVM compliant

Posted: 04 Jan 2010 06:52 PM PST

During a recent work I found some trouble working with the TreeView control in a Model-View-ViewModel scenario. As usually happen, the standard controls are designed to work in an event-driven behavior and this non always marries with a correct MVVM implementation...( read more )...(read more)

ASP.NET 4 SEO Improvements (VS 2010 and .NET 4.0 Series)

Posted: 05 Jan 2010 01:08 AM PST

[In addition to blogging, I am also now using Twitter for quick updates and to share links. Follow me at: twitter.com/scottgu ] This is the thirteenth in a series of blog posts I'm doing on the upcoming VS 2010 and .NET 4 release.  Today's post covers some of the improvements being made around Search Engine Optimization (SEO) with ASP.NET 4. Why SEO? Search engine optimization (SEO) is important for any publically facing web-site.  A large percentage of traffic to sites now comes from search engines, and improving the search relevancy of your site will lead to more user traffic to your site from search engine queries (which can directly or indirectly increase the revenue you make through your site). Measuring the SEO of your website...(read more)

T4MVC 2.6.10: fluent route value API, shorter way to refer to action, and more

Posted: 04 Jan 2010 06:45 PM PST

To get the latest build of T4MVC: Go to T4MVC page on CodePlex   I just posted build 2.6.10.  There were also a few builds in between since I last blogged about 2.6, so this post describes some of those changes (full history here ).   Fluent route value API As you probably know, T4MVC uses a pattern where the route values are encapsulated using a pseudo-call to a controller action, e.g. Html.ActionLink("Delete Dinner", MVC.Dinners.Delete(Model.DinnerID)) This adds the controller, the action and the method parameters to the route values in a convenient way with no hard coded strings. But in some situation, you may need to add extra values to the route that don't exist in the action method.  Now you can do it as follows...(read more)

Resolving the “TCP error code 10060: A connection attempt failed…” while consuming a web service

Posted: 04 Jan 2010 09:08 PM PST

Recently, one of the queries I had was on "TCP error code 10060: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond" while consuming a web service over proxy settings. Setting the UseDefaultWebProxy to true didn't help with this error. I had earlier written a post on explicitly setting the proxy in the configuration file for Web Services. The scenario here though was, a WCF Service Client trying to consume the web service. However, the same work around proved helpful. After setting the proxy explicitly, the web service could be consumed by the WCF Client. The proxy setting that you want to add to the config file...(read more)
