Solution Items

Solution Items

In practice, the content you will add most often to a solution is project related. But items

can be added directly to a solution as well. Collectively, the term

solution items refers to

any nonproject file that is attached to a solution. Because we know that solutions can't be

compiled, it stands to reason that files added at the solution level serve no practical

purpose from a compilation perspective. There are various reasons, however, that you may

want to add solution items to your solution. For instance, this is a convenient way to store

documentation that applies to the solution as a whole. Because you can add any type of

file to a solution, this could take the form of documents, notes to other developers, design

specifications, or even source code files from other solutions that may have some impact

or bearing on the work at hand.

By default, Visual Studio supports a few types of solution items that can be created directly

from within the IDE. They are grouped within four categories. Within each category are

various file types that can be generated by Visual Studio. Table 4.1 shows the supported

types.

Powerful .Net Framework 3.5 new features I)

Time Zone Additions—There are two new types that help you work with applications that need to understand multiple time zones. These classes are System.DateTimeOffset and TimeZoneInfo. The DateTimeOffset structure represents an exact point in time. The offset indicates how the time differs from UTC (Universal Coordinated Time). You use this new class when you need precision and date/time arithmetic. The TimeZoneInfo class is a welcome enhancement that represents a date and time in a given time zone. You can use this class to reliably represent the same date and time in any other time zone. In addition, you can use the class to create custom time zones if needed. . Peer-to-Peer Networking Support—The .NET Framework finally has its own peer-to-peer networking support. This can be found in the System.Net.PeerToPeer namespace. With it, you can create an application that works without a server and instead communicates from one client (peer) to another (similar to Microsoft’s Groove applicati...

DataPager control in ASP .NET 3.5

Another new control in 2008 that we’d like to highlight is the DataPager control. This control allows you to manage the paging of data and the UI associated with that paging. You can use this control by itself or embed it as part of another control you create. You can associate other, data-bound controls to a DataPager by using the DataPager’s PagedControlID property (the given control must implement the IPageableItemContainer interface). You have full control over the customization, layout, and behavior of the DataPager. Figure 1.17 shows the DataPager Fields editor (accessed from the control’s Tasks window). Notice that you can set appearance and behavior for all items associated with a given DataPager layout.
