I have a TFS build set up to deploy an ASP.net project to a test server.The build works great, and deploys to the test server fine, but instead of putting it into the Website directory that my IIS webserver is configured for, it puts the build into Website_20100511.6
Why is the date suffixed to the directory name? Is there a way to turn that off so I can publish directly to the Website?

This is a database design question. I want to build an invoice web application, an invoice can have many items, and each user can have an inventory list of product items that they can store and choose to add to an invoice item.
My questions are:
1. Should I store all product inventory for all users using my application under one single table? Or have a separate product inventory table created for each user?
2. Is this even possible?
1 table is easier, but what if this single table grows too big, will I have a problem? (primary key INT).
I was looking to build an application with the scenario:
1. The application is a Shared PowerPoint Presentation
2. There would be 2 users for the application, Admin and Client
3. Admin can upload presentations
4. Only Admin can control the flow of presentation and cLient can just see the changes
5. As-In Admin can select next slide or previous slide and correspondingly Client configuration changes
I was thinking of updating current values in Database and using AJAX for updates on Client end. But I want a notification kinda thing that would notify the Client as soon as the Admin changes slides.

I am currently in a dev only phase of development, and am using the VS built-in web server, configured for a fixed port number. I am using the following code, in my MembershipService class, to build an email body with a confirmation link, but obviously this must change when I deploy to our prod host.[URL]How can I build this URL to always reflect the host that the code is running on, e.g. when deployed to prod the URL should be http://our-live-domain.com/Account/..etc.MORE INFO: This URL will is included in an email to a new user busy registering an account, so I cannot use a relative URL.
I'd like to build a dashboard interface for an application I am working on. I want users to logon and get a birds eye view of the status of applications, outstanding issues, etc. I'm wondering if there are some good, pre-made controls rather than writing these from the ground up?
I found the tutorial below to build a chat application for asp.net which fulfilled most of my requirements, i.e. written in vb and made use of database, however the second part is missing. [URL]
I was hoping someone may be able to point me in the direction the original author intended to extend this to cover multi rooms and hopefully multi users?
Can anyone point me to a resource for how to build barcode reading into an ASP.net app? I need to scan a card and have it enter in the database that a person was present at a program that day.
im trying to build my first multi-tenant application, i used a shared database and it is complete now, i want to build the app now, and i tried this approach: all urls in the app have the following form ~/user/page.aspx(user directory is logical) where user is the current user, which is saved in a session after he logs in. when the user requests a page, say ~/user/profile.aspx, he is routed to the real page ~/profile.aspx and then his data are retrieved from the database. i dont think this is how multi tenant applications work, but i couldnt think of another method.
Every time I build my web application, my session variables are lost from before the build. Is there anyway to preserve session variables during the build?
I am trying to build my own custom Membership Provider in an MVC 3 Web Application using C#.
Here is my code:
[Code]....
As you can see, I am just starting with it, and yet I've encountered problems. According to this tutorial when I right click on MembershipProvider, I should get the option to [ Implement Abstract Class ], but I don't get that ! I am using Visual Studio 2010.
I was looking to build a Data Access Layer for my new web based application, I'm using ASP.NET. I'm want to build a framework not only for this application but also want to utilize it for my future projects.
Actually my main aim is to make a framework, from DAC, DAL, BL to GUI. I want suggestions from you guys that what should i adopt, what give me flexibility, which suits for both small and large size applications.
I'm working on resource files in windows application. After i'm adding the resource file in the project if i built the project it creates a separate folder for each language with language code(Spanish->es-ES, French->fr-FR..) and also it has one dll file for corresponding langage inside the folder. Why it is creating like this? Can't we avoid this?
How do I build a web application project from command line using Web Developer Express 2010?
I am using the same command format that I would use with devenv.exe (Visual Studio), so I can evaluate us moving forward to VS2010. However, I am having real trouble building our code. Our solution consists of 4-5 projects, consisting of assemblies. The last assembly is the web site code. The root .sln file is the one which when opening in the IDE can click Rebuild All, and the DLL's of each project are generated and then brought into the website project.
However, when I run vwdexpress.exe from the command line nothing happens and no Dlls are generated. This is not giving me any confidence to run with VS2010.
The in folders of each respective project are empty, but it takes 3-4 seconds for the command to finish, which gives me the impression it did something.
I'm relatively new to actually publishing sites on my own..Anyway, right now I am using VS2008 to build / compile my web application and then publish it to the server. Simple enough, until I want to change several of the code behinds, and don't want to spend 30 minutes re-publishing several thousand documents.
I have been reading that publishing via VS is not the best approach, so I guess I have two questions:
1. Using VS2008, is there a way to build the project and publish only certain parts of the project such as the pre-compiled code or better yet have VS only update the code that has been changed on the server? I suppose I could simply publish it to my local drive and pick apart the files from there / is there a better way?
2. In your opinion what is the best deployment strategy?
i have two models that represent two related tables:
class Article { Guid ID; Guid AuthorID; string Title;[code]...
i need to show this view model in a view:
class ArticleWithAuthor { string ArticleTitle;[code]...
in a controller for Article i need to create a view model for the given article id. i read somewhere that a good way to create a view model is to write a mapper that translates from model to view model.
my question is:since the mapper needs a model to work with, it seems that i need two database requests: one to retrieve my Article model and the other one to get my Person data to merge them in the model view. this seems inefficient. is there a way to combine these requests and still follow this "Entity Translation Pattern"? i know of course that i can create my view model "manually" by writing a custom LINQ expression but i am trying to follow the MVC guidelines.
I'm building an HTML5 application (with ASP.NET back-end) and i want to develop it in such a way that i can run it locally with all my resources (such js and css) not minified (so i can debug it easily). However when i build the final version i want merge and minify the resources. At the same time i want to create several versions of the app targeting different platforms (iPhone, iPad, desktop, etc) by adding appropriate css.
I thought that the final output should be a set of html files (so the get cached nicely). I could use ASPX and just control the output by a query string parameter, but i don't really want to have the form tag on my page.
So the questions are:
What are the pros and cons of using static html pages generated from a template versus a dynamic ASPX page? (apart from being able to run on any web server) If ASPX approach good enough then how can i get rid of the form tag that's required by ASP.NET?
UDPATE
Another factor in favor of static html pages is the fact that the files are served instantly, whereas ASPX may take awhile to load if the app has recycled.
I am currently working on an c# application that minimizes and combines javascript/css asynchronously in the background to load on to the page which completed. Once the combined minimized file(s) are created, they are saved on to disk and all subsequent requests to the page will load this file.
The reason for this is to assist with performance on the page. I have a concern though, what if the combined file is large, eg 200 kb. Would it be better to combine in to 2 files if this was the case and have 2 separate http requests? The file will be gzipped and cached.
I have an application using data from multiple stored procedures in a single database.The dataacess is disconnected one. Entire data is required during loadtime i.e. all calls made at load time. I want to know what is the most optimized way to do it. As the connection is required with only one database,is there a way to create it once and use it for the next times. I am aware of connection pooling but its anyways done by default. kindly suggest some way to optimize the load time. Also the result set from all the procedures cannot be clubbed so multiple stored procedure invoking is compulsory required.
