mikedopp.net phase out.

mikedopp.net as you know is my answer to a development blog. Since last week when I was given the chance to start blogging on weblogs.asp.net/mikedopp. I have been debating keeping the site up or moving it over. I have decided it was a good run and I will be moving over to weblogs.asp.net/mikedopp and getting rid of mikedopp.net.

MSSQL 2000 Tip of the day

So I get this email.

I forgot/lost the sa password. What to do?

So I scrub the google database. Looking for an answer:

Forgot or lost your sa password? Don't worry, there is a way out.

Login to the SQL Server computer as the Administrator of that computer. Open Query Analyzer and connect to SQL Server using Windows NT authentication. Run sp_password as show below to reset the sa password:

sp_password @new = 'will_never_forget_again', @loginame = 'sa'

.NET Framework Released Today.

mikedopp — Thu, 17 Jan 2008 16:46:20 GMT

Developers, Developers, Developers! Your source code is now public. At least the .NET framework. Woot! According to Scott Gutherie Microsofts ASP.net Guru.

The Available source code will include:

.NET Base Class Libraries (including System, System.CodeDom, System.Collections, System.ComponentModel, System.Diagnostics, System.Drawing, System.Globalization, System.IO, System.Net, System.Reflection, System.Runtime, System.Security, System.Text, System.Threading, etc).

ASP.NET (System.Web, System.Web.Extensions)

Windows Forms (System.Windows.Forms)

Windows Presentation Foundation (System.Windows)

ADO.NET and XML (System.Data and System.Xml)

VS 2008 will download both the symbols and source files on demand from the MSDN reference servers as you debug throughout the framework code. However the source code will be available for download shortly for you know documentation purposes.

Reference License

The .NET Framework source is being released under a read-only reference license. When we announced that we were releasing the source back in October, some people had concerns about the potential impact of their viewing the source. To help clarify and address these concerns, we made a small change to the license to specifically call out that the license does not apply to users developing software for a non-Windows platform that has “the same or substantially the same features or functionality” as the .NET Framework. If the software you are developing is for Windows platforms, you can look at the code, even if that software has "the same or substantially the same features or functionality" as the .NET Framework.

This is a huge(giant) leap for microsoft as their code or frameworks have all previously been closed source.
