DotNetRocks! ORM Smackdown


Ted Neward and Oren EiniThe ORM Smackdown!

Carl and Richard have just posted one of the best DNR shows in recent times.

I HIGHLY recommend that you check it out.

Ted Neward and Oren Eini agreed to discuss Object Relational Mapping practices at DevTeach in Montreal, Quebec May 16, 2007. This is a slightly longer show than usual, but we think you'll agree it was worth it.

PWOPAmbassadors :: All PWOP Torrents Feeds in one simple feed...


I'm tired of having to handle a gazillion feeds into uTorrent to capture all the PWOP Torrent feeds that I distribute as part of having the privilege of being a PWOPAmbassador. So, I’ve written this neat little amalgamation of all the PWOP show feeds into one RSS feed.

http://pwopfeeder.davidchristiansen.com/

Just point your small but perfectly formed torrent client with RSS capabilities (namely µTorrent) at this URL, configure a new favourite with a filter of * and stick the downloads in somewhere with a lot of space - these PWOP guys produce a whole stack of quality content.

TFPT Online from the Context Menu


A context menu for Team Foundation Power Tool Online command

The Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Team Foundation Server Power Tool (formerly known as Power Toys) is a set of enhancements, tools and command-line utilities that improve the Team Foundation Server user experience. This release includes two new command-line tools for the developer and three non-command line tools: a process template editor, a set of custom check-in policies, and a test tools build task:

The command i use the most is tfpt online. If your like me, you quite often work on your laptop, not connected to your work network. When in this scenario, you run into a couple of issues when working on a solution bound to TFS source control. Further info here (Buck Hodges) and here (Vertigo Software)

Tired of having to type the path and syntax into a command prompt I have created the following registry settings to launch the Team Foundation Power Tool Online command for the selected directory. It provides a shortcuts to the following arguments

  1. TFPT
  2. TFPT /adds "."
  3. TFPT /adds /deletes "."
