Windows Live Writer Stuff

Unable to publish from desktop, but laptop works. I used the below to move the draft to the laptop & publish. (Dec. 9, 2009)

http://labnol.blogspot.com/2007/10/move-draft-posts-written-in-windows.html

Windows Live Writer creates a "My Weblog Posts" folder under "My Documents" which has two sub-folders - Drafts containing all the unpublished posts while Recent Posts has all the posts you have ever published through Windows Live Writer.

FTP / WinSvr08

Adding FTP to a Web Site ... Invisible from dev-t3400

Configuring FTP Firewall Settings Success from WinExpl dev after these commands.

To configure Windows Firewall to allow non-secure FTP traffic, use the following steps:

Open a command prompt: click Start, then All Programs, then Accessories, then Command Prompt.

To open port 21 on the firewall, type the following syntax then hit enter:

netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="FTP (non-SSL)" action=allow protocol=TCP dir=in localport=21

To enable stateful FTP filtering that will dynamically open ports for data connections, type the following syntax then hit enter:

netsh advfirewall set global StatefulFtp enable

... but unable to copy files or create folders remotely. Folder permissions problem?

Changing Users to Full control from Read, Execute & List from:

Works! Expression Web 3 could not create “Learning/01” folder. Created “Learning” in dev/WinExplr and XWeb3 then able to created “01” folder. Successful publish. Added “default.html” to svr IIS Default Document list. “http://t3400-svr-08/learning/01/”

AAR:

Worked on FTP 7.5 in WinSvr 08.
Discovered web videos could be zoomed. Showed MJ. Discovered download works better than streaming in a browser, even with FiOS.
Investigated Camtasia to do similar.
Removed garden fence. Should have gotten photos of pulling posts with bar, chain & fulcrum, and pulling fence out of the grass with woodworking clamp.
Try this blogging for awhile as "Dayfile".

ReSharper Tips

.NET Stuff

Html Agility Pack -- Parses html into XML. "Free" C# source code.
Must Have .NET Developer Tools -- David Hayden.

Awesome... Web Apps as Local Classes -- SteelPrice.Net
ASP.NET Applications without Web Projects -- Fritz Onion
WSCF - Schema-Based Contract-First Web Services -- thinktecture.com

From ms.public.dotnet.languages.csharp thread "Nice exceptions"

I usually create a class, called

EntryPoint.cs

[STAThread]
static void Main(string[] args)
{
try
{

Application.Run(new Form1()); //Whatever your startup form is

}

}
catch (Exception ex)
{
//Notify User
MessageBox.Show( "A (uncaught) exception has occured. MyApp
cannot continue." );
//Shut down application
Application.Exit( );
}
}

This will catch any uncaught exceptions.

But Jon is right.
You catch an general exception, but you're rethrowing it.
Thus something else must catch it, or you'll get the blow-up screen.

You should should google

try catch finally brad abrams

and you can read where

"You should be writing many many more

try/finally
blocks

and not so many
try/catch/finally

blocks.
