Type.GetType in ASP.NET

by Marius Gheorghe 17. July 2006 20:32

  It doesn’t work with the new ASP.NET compilation model (although it might work with Web Application projects). You must use

System.Web.Compilation.BuildManager.GetType() instead.

Enterprise

by Marius Gheorghe 11. July 2006 18:37

   It seems to me that there is a lot of missunderstanding about what “enterprise” really is. People seem to think that “enterprise” is a system/language/framework ability to scale (up). The urban legends say that Java (the platform) is the undisputed “enterprise” language. Unfortunately nothing can be further from the truth.

   Have a look at this . Your regular PHP web application can easily scale up on that hardware. So how come Java is more “enterprise” that PHP ? Well…..enterprise really doesn’t have anything to do with scaling really. You can write scalable systems (both up and out) in pretty much any language. “Enterprise” is really about playing nice with others. Enterprise is really about distributed transactions. If your language/framework of choice supports this, then it can be integrated without problems into the IT infrastructure of any organisation. That is what “enterprise” is really all about.

Site redesign

by Marius Gheorghe 2. July 2006 18:39

I redesign the site in the weekend (everything besides the DataBlock section). I have lost a lot of time due to some CSS problems with Firefox (they worked perfectly in Opera/IE). Sometimes beeing too strict is wrong. Another thing….give Opera 9 a spin. You might be pleasantly surprised.
