I have Bung

Monday, 1 June 2009 09:51 by tariq

Bing has launched, and I binged a couple of searches and have to say Bing is nice. But I was doing some random searches without considering the relevancy of the search results. Does anyone know any cool searches that demonstrate the features of this search engine. I mean what makes this special?

Whats the past tense of bing anyway's is it binged or bung or bong?

Bing over here.

Bing it on!!! :)

More Asp.net compiler switches

Monday, 1 June 2009 05:48 by tariq

Further to the tip I posted earlier, here is a few more tips.

The asp.net compiler is aspnet_compiler.exe located in %WinDir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727

The compiler takes the following parameters

- p to precompile

^ This is not new, its exactly what Swami said in his post.

But my tip is there are more switches that might be helpful for you

-fixednames generates a separate assembly for each page

-f overwrites the files in the target directory

-u specifies that the precompiled application should be update-able afterwards.

See more at MSDN
