Debugging Tip
By hkenuam on 1/18/2008 9:38 AM
Recently one of my colleagues (Dukes) and I were developing a module and he is one of those guys who has memorized every keyboard shortcut for Visual Studio and I noticed him "Attaching to a Process"  (CTRL + ALT + P). Me being a traditional style developer I have always just reloaded the application using the trusty F5.  We were involved in some client specific business logic and I just made a mental note at the time.

Recently, I've started using the Attach to Process (then select aspnet_wp.exe and Attach) as the way to test logic and I have to say that it is much faster than F5 even with cached authentication information and not logging in each time.

If you are like me and you are a habitual F5er, give attach to process a try, old habits are hard to break but this one will save you a significant amount of time over the course of a day, week or your career!

Team System Source Control - Get Latest on Checkout
By hkenuam on 11/12/2007 2:16 PM
While in Vegas I attended a few sessions in the Architect track regards Team System future versions and in one of the sessions I learned that the next version of Team System will include a new configurable setting for Getting Lastest on Checkout. This paradigm was introduced with the first version and developers have in many cases struggled to adjust. Here are some links with more information.

Membership Provider Video - Part I
By hkenuam on 7/11/2007 5:07 AM

In a previous blog I had posted a document to help developers get started implementing their own provider. This video is aimed at helping those who have had trouble getting their environments setup correctly and issues with the web.config file. I am working on a second video that will walk through modifications required in the code. Coming soon!

How many times have you upgraded a 2000 database to find that the Diagramming Feature doesn't work? Worse yet, you get an error that leads you down the yellow brick road to no where....

Using Web Deployment Projects/MSBuild to build private assemblies for DNN
By hkenuam on 1/5/2007 4:17 PM
I recently had to create a private assemblypackage for one of our modules and in doing so I ran into problems that caused me to spend a day of my life that I will never get back. I thought I would share this and possibly save someone the pain that it has caused me.

Deploying ASP.NET 2.0 web services with AJAX
By hkenuam on 6/29/2006 8:22 AM
Here's an interesting thing we discovered when deploying an ASP.Net 2.0 site using AJAX calls (using HTTP POST).   In order to enable HTTP POST's for your web service you have to modify the web.config file to add the following:

<WEBSERVICES>

<PROTOCOLS>

<ADD name="HttpPost" />
