Thursday, June 26, 2003Did you know that you can nest #regions in VS.NET? You can create hierarchies of regions...seems obvious, but it wasn't to me. Thanks to Rocco for the tip.

We have VS.NET2002 a project that hasn't been updated to VS.NET2003 and logisitically can't for a few weeks. However, we had a need for a post-build file copy. It's a large Online Banking project (since we do eBanking here at Corillian) for a very large Financial Institution, so there's lots of people working on the project at once. Ordinarily the project is built with the increasingly snazzy NAnt so these post-build processes are no biggie. However, sometimes you'd just like to do stuff from VS.NET.
We looked the two obvious ways:
- Custom VS.NET Build Rules Add-In: There's a lovely and simple sample from MSDN in VB.NET with source included. It cleverly (and rightfully) stores it's config info in the .csproj as an extra XML section.
- Use a C++ MakeFile Project and get it to run last with Project Dependancies: This was my first, gut reaction, backed up as at least value by Chris Sell's mention of it. I like it since we wouldn't have to install anything assuming we already had C++ on the box.
So, between a rock and a hard place, we'll use the Custom Add-In for a few months then upgrade and VS2003. It's all good.

Win2K SP4 is up and out. A quote from NTBUGTRAQ:
"Downloads, readmes, etc... all available, not limited to Premier customers, no "Confidentiality" clauses, not June 30th, no broken parts (hmm, have I missed anyone's claim?)"
Go get it...or better yet, get Windows 2003 Server.
