• Req: Alternatives to CruiseControl.net for open source CI.

  Hi folks, Are there any open source alternatives to CruiseControl.Net for CI in the dotNet world? I'm quite happy with the idea of using xml for storing configuration data. There's an important proviso here. The API has to be comprehensible. Single word element and attribute names are pretty dire unless there is no room for ambiguity. Expressing programming language constructs such as repetition, iteration or recursion in XML is just dumb. Another ideal requirement would be proper documentation

• Re: You have entered an invalid product key

  Thanks for the reply. I have not yet tried building a new PC from the ground up. It would be interesting to see whether the key remains invalid with a new build - whether it's registered as invalid in my registry or the Microsoft's databases.

• You have entered an invalid product key

  Infinite loop bug - Nasty one. I emailed an enquiry at the Dreamspark website indicating that I was unable to install the software I have downloaded because the key given was invalid. Since I live in the UK they gave me a UK phone number: (+44) 0870 60 10 100 to ring. On ringing it I find that I have a menu of four choices: Activation and activaction problems is choice one. I press 1 on the phone. After about 3 minutes, of being told nonsense [Please enter the first 6 number group now.] because I

• How do I test my database code?

  I want to unit test my database code because unit tests are simpler to maintain than acceptance tests (via the UI). My solution contains web application and data layer projects. Right now each public method in the database classes which accesses the database relies on having two properties present in their base class: ConnectionString and CacheName. These are lazily loaded via Configuration Manager from web.config - which asp.net magically finds (because it's a web application). If I try to test

• Re: I can not dynamically modify HeaderText for a DataGrid Column.

  Apologies to whom it may concern. The thread should really be split in two. The initial question was about the DataGrid then I added another question about the Telerik RadGrid. RadGrid questions are best answered in the telerik forums but I may as well answer the question I asked above. Here is the answer to this problem. http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/aspnet-ajax/grid/how-can-i-modify-headertext-but-keep-ajax-sorting.aspx That event, ItemCreated, doesn't look right to me. I used ItemDataBound

• Re: I can not dynamically modify HeaderText for a DataGrid Column.

  It still does not work. I believe I'm using the right event this time. When I debug it the value of the Header is changed, but when it displays I see "Converted", which is not what I want at all. I've done this using the ItemCreated event [above] but that was no good because it killed the sorting. I need to keep the sorting and dynamically change the value of the header for this column. <telerik:RadGrid ID="GridNews" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False"

• Re: I can not dynamically modify HeaderText for a DataGrid Column.

  Thanks. I shall use the right event next time. It can be done like this though. This worked: protected void Grid_ItemDataBound(object sender, DataGridItemEventArgs e) { if (e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.Header) { e.Item.Cells[ConvertedColumn].Text = GetCurrencyCode(); } } I trawled through about 4 pages of Google hits but didn't find a single clear example of how to do this. Just 40 or so fragments. Too many spam artists out there clogging up the web with their so-called 'SEO'.

• Re: Converting website to a web application breaks in weird ways.

  I did the conversion eventually. I noticed that when one tried to convert the website and it failed to create the Old_App_Code folder then it was pointless trying to convert further. One had to to figure out what had caused the failure and start again from the beginning. Before trying to convert, it's a good idea to make sure every bit of code is in a namespace. I also put all the App_Code stuff in its own namespace. If there are server controls in the website which are causing the conversion

• I can not dynamically modify HeaderText for a DataGrid Column.

  This (below) does not work. It fires and when I can trace through it the "HeaderText" is indeed modified. The trouble is that the DataGrid display is not. protected void Grid_ItemDataBound(object sender, DataGridItemEventArgs e) { if (e.Item.ItemType == ListItemType.Header) { DataGrid dg = sender as DataGrid; DataGridColumn col; for (int index = 0; index < dg.Columns.Count; index++) { if (index == ConvertedColumn) { col = dg.Columns[ConvertedColumn]; col.HeaderText = GetCurrencyCode
