Subversion Hosting Websites

Although I initially created this blog as a medium to archive and publish my writings, I am constantly doing research into new (and sometimes not so new) technologies and am faced with the need to go a step further than simply bookmarking a website or a set of multiple websites, finding it more efficient to post pertinent information here for further reference.

This awesome list adapted from the original article at http://subversion.tigris.org/links.html. Personally I'm using assembla.com's free hosting package, and TortoiseSVN as the UI for the repository. Setting up this combination was by far the easiest of many other operations performed this week (setup time being max 30 min.).

Required file 'alink.dll with IAlink3' could not be found

After reinstalling Visual Studio and attempting to open and build a new project on my Vista system, I encountered the following error:

"Required file 'alink.dll with IAlink3' could not be found"

So that time may be saved in the future for the next who encounters this error, the following steps will solve this problem:

1. Explore the Visual Studio installation source and go to the "\WCU\dotNetFramework\dotNetMSP\x86" directory;

2. Install the updates in this order: Windows6.0-KB110806-x86.msu, Windows6.0-KB929300-x86.msu, Windows6.0-kb930264-x86.msu (if the last item is not in the directory as some have noted, it can be downloaded here);

3. Reboot your system and build the affected solution.

It's the little things about software development that make coding a profession only for the patient...

Could not load file or assembly 'System.Data.DataSetExtensions, Version=2.0.0.0

I encountered this error today when compiling a project of mine, and luckily it was one of the more straightforward problems to correct.

All that was required was to change the "2.0.0.0" to "3.5.0.0" in the web.config file and all was well. It look as though Visual Studio 2008 doesn't automatically change a lot of the references during a project upgrade. If only most of the errors I came across were this easy to solve...

Welcome!

This blog will be the stage for my writings, past and present. It's not really addressed to anyone, nor do I expect it to be read. It's just an arena for me to catalog writings that at one time meant a great deal to me, all of them older than six years or more. If you do decide to join in this act of transcription, then please feel welcome and make yourself comfortable. Indeed many things will come to pass.

Having said that...

The issue is, for me, wanting to write when the fever takes over and consumes the pages… I prefer to write when I’m fully aware of what is being written, and really delve deep into the text as if we all were sitting adjacent.

The damned feeling that something great needs to be done hovers right out of arms length.

I guess it lies in the inherent gap in language, where all these enigmatic words/feelings/desires lay waiting patiently by, especially when all of the texts and words slide through the cracks in the floor.

For that we can still talk and be amazed at it all.
