Tod1d's Thought Process

I started looking over Snippet Compiler. For those of you who do not know, it was created by Jeff Key. Here is a list of features as listed on his site:

• Compiles and runs single or multiple C#, VB.NET and ASP.NET snippets.
• Optionally builds WinForm EXEs, console EXEs or DLLs.
• The user can store a library of templates.
• Displays compile errors and warning, including wave lines in editor with error/warning tooltips.
• IntelliSense for static members and method signatures, as well as constructor signatures.
• Imports VS.NET projects.
• Conveniently sits in the notification area waiting to be useful.
• Exports snippets to HTML/RTF.

It seems useful, but I rarely have a small snippet of code that doesn't need a handful of references to test.

I did find the PerfTimer.cs (Performance Tester) template to be handy.

Does anyone want to share how this app is helping you?

This is the first post on my experimental blog. I have been toying with the idea of setting up a blog for months now, but have kept putting it off. I would like to use the .Text blog, but I don't want to fork out the cash for a SQL server account until I am sure I would post regularily. Yes, I know that you can use MSDE, but I don't wanna mess with it.

The primary focus of this blog will be for me to post comments around Microsoft's ASP.NET and C# technology. I occasionally come across a problem that I have a terrible time finding a solution for via the internet. I will be posting those solutions here.

So begins my blogging adventure.
