In our VS Web Application project, we have a post-build task that concatenates and minifies our JavaScript files into a single file name "OurApplication-.js" (where is the version of the website assembly).

Hi, I have a C# dll that implements COM. Is there a way to configure the project to create the SxS manifest for this dll (exposing COM information) and embed it into resources.

I have an application that is supposed to aid my project in terms of pre- and post-build event handling. I'm using ndesk.options for command line argument parsing. Which gave me weird results when my project path contains spaces. I thought this was the fault of ndesk.options but I guess my own application is to blame. I call my applicati...
