Going over my daily blog activities I noticed a refferal from a new search engine called Previewseek. So I did some research and decided to post a review on this very interesting site.

I’ve had to design a system that works with unmanaged resources and thus I had several classes that required the implementation of the IDisposable interface.

The MSBuild Team Blog featured a series of posts about integrating MSBuild with Visual Studio.
Here is the summary of these posts:

A graphics engine written in C# and OpenGL which uses Sharp3D.Math can be found at https://www.jordodesigns.com/jpgl.html.

I’ve been trying for hours without success to get my Visual Sourcesafe 2005 to work over the internet so I could access the sources on my home computer from work. This whole VSS internet plug-in thing seems more like a hack than a solution Microsoft actually expects people to use.

After reading this post at Dror’s blog I decided that paying ~5$ a month for 3GB of storage is an awsom deal so I just signed up for a year.
This deal includes a free domain name registration so maybe I’ll register a new domain name in addition to the already existing ekampf.com (I also need to find out how to point ekampf.com to the new host).

Earlier this month Microsoft made a preview release of its design tools for its upcoming Windows Presentation Foundation subsystem (known as Avalon).
This set of tools is known as “Cider” and is set to be part of the next version of Visual Studio (“Orcas”).

Ok so I found out whats the new link for my Google GuestMap.
You can find it in the following link:

Its 4am in the morning and I’m finally about to leave the office.
The Mendocino flow works and we’re ready for the preview.

Well its already all over the news and on several Microsoft blogs (Michael Kiselman, Marc Monplaisir,…) so I thought I should mention this on my blog sooner or later too.
The preview release of project ‘Mendocino’ should be released towards the end of the month which means we’re currently at final stages of development towards the “dev close” date.
