• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) How do I utilize standard gzip compression for web services in WCF?

  Hi, I would like to compress the messages sent over a WSHttpBinding to get a better usage of low bandwidth. I'm primarily interested in compressing the response from the server and was thinking about utilizing the standard compression module for IIS 6.0. But this requires that the request has the "Accept-encoding: gzip" in the HTTP header and of course that WCF can decompress the response automatically, which doesn't seems to be standard functionality today. Is there any way to get this kind of functionality with WCF Are there any plans to make this decompression functionality standard in WCF (It is implemented in .NET 2.0 Web Servi ...Show All

  Hello, I have a VB application that has been evolving for several years. I have installed and used it on work stations running win95,98,NT,2000 and XP.

  I've been playing with ItemGroup's Include attribute for a while but still haven't figured how to do it. Basically, all I need is to run NUnit for all nunit assemblies that reside under bin\Debug folder (luckily enough, all our unit tests have "unittest.dll" suffix). Something like the following should do it. (You have to use CreateItem instead of ordinary ItemGroup because ItemGroups are evaluated before any targets are executed, and therefore the dll:s you are building will be missing) <CreateItem Include="$(TargetDir)*unittest.dll"> <Output TaskParameter="Include" ...Show All
