Installing MVC 3 for Visual Studio 2010 on Windows Developer Preview after installing MVC 4

Posted: 26 Oct 2011 05:14 AM PDT

I am playing more with the Windows Developer Preview and simply love the backward compatibility it has for applications that used to work in Windows 7. And one of the applications critical to my day-to-day life is Visual Studio. Visual Studio 2010 with SP1 and ASP.NET MVC 3 Tools is my everyday requirement. Windows Developer Preview when installed from the MSDN Center has two flavors. One with the Developer Tools which I would assume, most of us developers would want and the other one, which is simply the Windows Developer Preview (without the Tools). And the Tools that it ships with has a version of VS11 Developer Preview which is just for building Metro Style applications.

We see quite a few advantages in doing that, but that's a story for another post. Today, I just want to post on that quick and dirty tool that I've built to translate the ScrewTurn Wiki markup into Markdown. It's not a masterpiece in any way, it's not exhaustive, but I thought it may be useful to others, so here it is… https://bitbucket.org/bleroy/screwturn2markdown/src Read More......(read more)

State of .NET Image Resizing: how does imageresizer do?

Posted: 22 Oct 2011 03:18 PM PDT

I've written several times before about image resizing in .NET and how the various built-in solutions (GDI, WPF and WIC) compare in terms of quality, speed and size. I'll put the links to my previous articles at the end of this post for reference. Several readers have since pointed me to the imageresizer library, which is pure .NET and thus has no problems running in medium trust. Medium trust is an issue that has plagued existing options, preventing many people from using the best available approach. I was doubtful though that a purely managed library could come anywhere near the native Windows libraries in terms of performance. The best way to find out, of course, is to run a benchmark. Fortunately, I still had the code for my previous...(read more)
