Update: WilsonORMapper v4.2.1.0 (1/24/2006) includes the following:

  • Sql2005 Provider for Efficient Paging with Row_Number
  • More Lookup cases using Outer Join now Supported
  • ObjectQuery has SkipCounts option for Performance
  • Multiple optimizations with the help of Marc Brooks

Marc Brooks also provided the following new features:

  • Auto keyType can be Composite with the last being Auto
  • DefaultNamespace can be defined in each mapping file
  • DateTime provider-specific min/max for db compatibility
  • Bug-Fix: Non-Lazy-Loaded Generic (v2.0) Collections
  • Bug-Fix: Transactions with specified IsolationLevel
  • Bug-Fix: Empty Byte Arrays work with nullValue=”[]“
  • Bug-Fix: A few OPath fixes included by Jeff Lanning

Marc Brooks poi afferma certamente qualcosa di condivisibile:

The best value in source code has been updated once again. Today Paul Wilson released 4.2.0.1 of his most-excellent Wilson ORMapper. At $50 USD, you will not find a better deal in all of the .Net kingdom. It’s good code, and the functionality is just right without the serious overkill that plagues other alternatives.

Sure, it’s not nHibernate, and nHibernate is free; but honestly the complexity of nHibernate is much more of a cost versus the simplicity and obviousness of WORM (and the attendant cost savings). I know it has saved me an hour or two… what is that in today’s consulting rates?

Google tricks

Come fare a “scoprire” quali sono i siti più in voga del momento?

Basta inserire la parola http per i “top 1000 PageRanked sites” e www per vedere come Google “ranks the top 1,000 sites” nel box di ricerca.

Altre tricks:

Manually type the following prefixes and note their utility:

# link:url Shows other pages with links to that url.
# related:url same as “what’s related” on serps.
# site: domain restricts search results to the given domain.
# allinurl: shows only pages with all terms in the url.
# inurl: like allinurl, but only for the next query word.
# allintitle: shows only results with terms in title.
# intitle: similar to allintitle, but only for the next word. “intitle: seoforgoogle google” finds only pages with seoforgoogle in the title, and google anywhere on the page.
# cache:url will show the Google version of the passed url.
# info:url will show a page containing links to related searches, backlinks, and pages containing the url. This is the same as typing the url into the search box.
# spell: will spell check your query and search for it.
# stocks: will lookup the search query in a stock index.
# filetype: will restrict searches to that filetype. “-filetype: pdf” to remove Adobe PDF files.
# daterange: is supported in Julian date format only. 2452384 is an example of a Julian date.
# maps: If you enter a street address, a link to Yahoo Maps and to MapBlast will be presented.
# phone: enter anything that looks like a phone number to have a name and address displayed. Same is true for something that looks like an address (include a name and zip code)
# site:www.somesite.net “+www.somesite.+net” – (tells you how many pages of your site are indexed by google)
# allintext: searches only within text of pages, but not in the links or page title
# allinlinks: searches only within links, not text or title

    Cambiare server di posta come Lotus Notes o Domino non è un’operazione banale, ma se Microsoft ti aiuta rilasciando una serie di tools per la migrazione:

    New Tools Ease Application and Messaging Transition

    Many organizations are looking for assistance in developing and executing on a transition plan for their Lotus Notes/Domino applications. The new and updated Microsoft tools announced today will help customers analyze and address their unique environments. The tools include the following:

    Microsoft Application Analyzer 2006 for Lotus Domino. This tool, available in the first quarter of 2006, will significantly improve the process of analyzing a Notes/Domino application environment and provide a framework for making recommendations to transition those applications to the Microsoft platform.
    Microsoft Data Migrator 2006 for Lotus Domino. This new tool, available in the second quarter of 2006, will allow organizations to migrate data from Lotus Domino template-based applications to Windows SharePoint Services Application Templates.
    Additional Windows SharePoint Services Application Templates. Building on the success of 30 application templates released in August 2005, Microsoft announced three new application templates available today developed for customers using similar Lotus Notes/Domino templates today: Discussion Database, Team Work Site and Document Library.
    Updated Messaging and Coexistence Tools. To assist companies with the transition from Lotus Notes/Domino messaging to Microsoft Exchange Server, Microsoft is providing enhanced functionality and increased stability for Exchange Calendar Connector for Lotus Notes/Domino, Exchange Connector for Lotus Notes/Domino and Migration Wizard for Lotus Notes/Domino.

    Molti di noi lo fanno quotidianamente, rassegnati dalla laconica lentezza nel caricamento di Windows XP (del resto si rifà la macchina proprio per questo: velocizzare la macchina ;-) ).

    In effetti da Windows 2000 a Xp hanno velocizzato il tempo “apparente” di startup, facendo caricare dopo il logon tutti i servizi e applet vari.

    Una soluzione semplice è quella descritta da BrainFuel che consiste nel far partire automaticamente l’utente con un autologon e poi eseguire subito lock della workstation.

    Ingegnoso.

    Google Pack is:
  • Essential: Enjoy safe, useful software for your computer
  • Simple: Download and install everything in just a few clicks
  • Customizable: Choose only the software you want
  • Up to date: Get updates and new software via Google Updater
  • Learn more
  • System Requirements

  • Windows XP with Administrator privileges (What’s this?)
  • Firefox 1.0+ or Internet Explorer 6.0+
  • Un nuovo sistema operativo? Noooo..

    E’ semplicemente una suite di prodotti open source e commerciali in trial per risolvere la vita alle persone e canalizzare l’uso quotidiano di internet su google.

    Se poi la creatività di google svilupperà un nuovo s.o., sarà comunque un successo.. :-/

    Interessante che sia anche un altro esempio di applicazione di Ajax: avete presente l’odiato applet di Windows XP Add/Remove Programs? Sulla pagina di download del pack è possibile scegliere quali componenti della suite da scaricare. Cool!

    Mi sono convertito a WordPress

    Sebbene sia stato scritto con PHP ;-) , ho installato WordPress al primo colpo.

    Il mio caro vecchio blog era stato scritto in un paio di viaggi tra Vicenza e Milano (quindi in circa 4 ore) e soffriva purtroppo di alcune “lacune”, come la mancanza di commenti e i trackbacks. Era comunque un gioiello di di semplicità: tutto i posts sono contenuti in un DataSet salvato sul filesystem come xml e su cui applicavo trasformazioni, come il conteggio dei posts per mese.

    WordPress 2.0 è il software per blog di riferimento ed anche un buon esempio di utilizzo di Ajax.
