Electric Airsoft Rifles use batteries as their power source and they shoot very fast. Some Electric Airsoft Rifles come with semi-automatic fire. That means that when you pull the trigger only 1 BB will come out at a time. Other Electric Airsoft Rifles come with full-automatic fire. This means that when you pull the trigger multiple BBs will come out at a time. The longer you hold the trigger down the more BBs come out. Check the description above to see which kind of gun this is and if it is right for you. Electric Airsoft Rifles don't require any pumping or cocking, just simply point and shoot. This is a High End Electric Airsoft Gun. Please only use .20 gram high quality BBs with this item in order to keep it in proper working order. Using anything else as ammunition for this gun will void the warranty and may cause it to jam. Also, to keep your Electric Airsoft Gun working properly, do not fire the gun when there are no BBs in it as it may cause damage to your gun. You must be 18 years of age or older to purchase this Airsoft gun.

HOFFMAN ESTATES, ILL.: Barrington Broadcasting Group finished the second quarter with a $5.8 million loss on revenues of $24.6 million, less agency commission. Gross revenues were nearly $29 million, down 16 percent from the same quarter a year ago.The decline was attributed to a 35 percent drop in national revenues to $6 million, and a 15 percent decrease in local revenues to $18 million. Political revenues decreased by $500,000 to $100,000.Operating expenses for the quarter ending June 30, 2009, excluding depreciation, amortization and impairment, fell nearly 14 percent to $18.8 million. The difference reflected layoffs, joint sales and service agreements and other renegotiated contracts, Barrington said. Broadcast cash flow fell 21 percent to $7.7 million from $9.8 million a year ago."Although we have seen positive results from both revenue and cost-saving initiatives we put in place earlier in the year, overall revenue continues to be impacted by weakness in the local and national economies," said Jim Yager, Barrington CEO. "However, we will continue to benefit from our bond buybacks that occurred in the first half of the year as our annual interest payments to bondholders have been reduced by approximately $7 million."Barrington finished the quarter with cash and equivalents of $22 million, and long-term debt of $230.7 million.Barrington has 21 TV stations in 15 markets reaching around 3.4 percent of U.S. households.-- Deborah D. McAdamsMore TVB coverage of Barrington:May 13, 2009: "Barrington Revenues Fall 17 Percent"Barrington Broadcasting Group posted 1Q09 revenues of $26 million, down 17 percent from $31.3 million posted a year ago. The drop was attributed to a 14 percent decline in local revenues, to $16.5 million; and a 30 percent decline in national revenues, to $5.8 million. Political was also down from $1.5 million last year to $200,000 for the quarter ending March 31.April 27, 2009: "Barrington Broadcasting Defaults"Barrington was one of five corporations that defaulted last week, The Wall Street Journal said, and one of four that were distressed-debt exchanges. Barrington's sole shareholder, Bob Pittman's Pilot Group LP, injected $16 million into the TV station business Feb. 20. Some of the money was used to buy back 10.5 percent senior notes due 2014 at an 88 percent discount in an effort to renegotiate loan terms.

Houston Man Used Religion to Sucker Woman Into Ponzi Scheme
A Houston man was sent to federal prison recently in a devious scheme to bilk a Mississippi woman out of her divorce settlement money. Samuel Ray Palasota used the word of God to get more than a half-million dollars from the woman, making her think they were partners in a Houston real estate company.
Palasota, 53, set up a church he called The Makers Mercy Church. He ran the so-called real estate company through a branch he called The Maker's Resources, and according to online records he also operated Sammy Palasota Ministries, all had Houston mailing addresses.
Palasota connected with the woman sometime in 2008, offering her religious counseling. A year later the woman agreed to invest her money with him after receiving religious literature and a guarantee of a 40 percent return on her principal annually, according to court records.
Given Houston's real estate market four years ago, there's no wonder she bought into it. But, as court records show, Palasota didn't invest a dime of the woman's money.

Instead he spent it on himself.
Palasota bought luxury items galore, and two cars that were ultimately forfeited by the court. In all, Palasota ran through more than $1 million dollars since he caused the woman to sell her home, in addition to the $650,000 investment she was asked for from the beginning.
And if you didn't think this Palasota scummy enough, he kept the woman believing she was making money by cutting her off pieces of her own invested money and giving it back to her. He would cut her checks, mentioned in the federal indictment, of $208.33 one or twice a month through 2009 with a big check of $10,833.31 back in September 2009. The followed that up with three payments of $14,166,64 to finish the year.
By late 2010, the court says Palasota spent everything and his own bank account was in the red. He was convicted on 21 counts of mail fraud and three counts of wire fraud in October. He was sentenced to 71 months in prison last month.

Young Tiger is an all-round talent
Kyle Orchard has had a great season for Central Park-St Brendan's in Cricket Shepparton's junior competition with the bat.HANNAH DRISCOLL March 7, 2014 4:10am
Central Park-St Brendan's youngster Kyle Orchard made a big impact, especially with the bat, this season and took out the batting average in his competition.
If the basketball ring set up in the driveway wasn't enough of a giveaway, Kyle Orchard loves playing sport.
But it's basketball that has been put on the backburner while he concentrates on other pursuits.
One is football, and he will once again pull on the boots for Shepparton United when the junior football season kicks off.
But he also finished a stellar cricket season for Central Park-St Brendan's last month, and there is little hesitation when he is asked what his favourite sport is.
Orchard, 14, made 258 runs in seven innings, including five times not out, in under-16B grade and, including his scores in the under-16 Twenty20 competition, took out the under-16B best batting average award with 286 runs at an average of 143.
He was only dismissed five times out of nine in under-14A last year.
This season Orchard also took six wickets in the under-16B competition, with a best performance of 2-30, and another three wickets from five overs in two under-16 Twenty20 games.
Orchard represented Cricket Shepparton in the under-15 McPherson Shield side last year, and the Junior Country Week under-14 side in the new year where he made 81 runs in four innings.
This included a top score of 44 retired not out against Seymour District Cricket Association and 22 not out in the grand final win against Bendigo District Cricket Association.
But his favourite performance this year was his 44 not out against eventual runner-up Numurkah in the opening round of under-16B.
''I've been happy with my performances this year,'' Orchard said.
''It was the first game against Numurkah. It wasn't my highest score, it was my best quality score.
''Last year I had a good end to the year, and then I had confidence coming into the year.''
Orchard also had his first taste of senior cricket this season with two games in C-grade, where he made six runs in one innings and took a wicket with the seven overs he bowled.
He said he had learned a lot from the Tigers' coach Tim Kelly, with the best advice to keep working hard, and thanked his father Rick for taking him to training.

OLIVER STONEs new film set to open in a few months, features an all star cast. It deals with the coverup of the My Lai Massacre, an event in which several hundred Vietnamese civilians were killed by U.S. soldiers. With Bruce Willis, Michael Pitt, Woody Harrelson, this script is great. I saw some of this last week and I know this will bring back the lost Oliver Stone back to the line. Vmedia

This list can only increase because while IoT services should be intuitive and simple to use, the delivery ecosystem is a myriad of potential problems as IoT explodes complexity.

US seizes $150 million in Hezbollah launder probe
NEW YORK (AP) – U.S. authorities say they've seized $150 million linked to a scheme by the Lebanese Shiite militant group Hezbollah to launder drug money.
Prosecutors in New York City announced on Monday they used a seizure warrant to take the money from an escrow account in Lebanon.
The prosecutors filed a lawsuit last year demanding hundreds of millions of dollars in money laundering penalties from Lebanese financial institutions and other entities.
Authorities had said that since 2007 more than $300 million was wired from Lebanon to the United States to buy used cars for resale in West Africa. Prosecutors said they had evidence Hezbollah used back channels to wire cash from the cars and drug-dealing proceeds back to Lebanon.
Hezbollah has no representative in the U.S. No representative could be contacted overnight in the Middle East.

A huge section of HMS Prince of Wales has arrived in Rosyth as the dockyard prepares for final assembly of the second Queen Elizabeth Class aircraft carrier, shipbuilder BAE systems announced.
The 8,000-metric-ton hull section, known as Lower Block 03, completed the 600-mile journey around the north coast of Scotland last night, after departing BAE Systems in Glasgow on Monday, July 28.
The block weighs more than an entire Type 45 destroyer and forms the mid-section of the aircraft carrier's hull from the keel to the hangar deck.
The first carrier, HMS Queen Elizabeth, was officially named by Her Majesty the Queen in July and has been undocked for the first time, making way for final assembly of HMS Prince of Wales to begin next month.
The aircraft carriers HMS Queen Elizabeth and HMS Prince of Wales are being delivered by the Aircraft Carrier Alliance, a unique partnering relationship between BAE Systems, Thales UK, Babcock and the Ministry of Defense.
The Queen Elizabeth Class will be the centerpiece of Britain's defense capability for the 21st century. Each 65,000-tonne aircraft carrier will provide the armed forces with a four-acre military operating base, which can travel up to 500 miles per day to be deployed anywhere around the world. Operating the Joint Strike Fighter Lightning II jets and a number of types of helicopter, the Queen Elizabeth Class will be versatile enough to be used across the full spectrum of military activity from warfighting to providing humanitarian aid and disaster relief.

We started the first real world project with ASP.NET Core RC2 a month ago and we learned a lot of new stuff around ASP.NET Core
In this post, I'm going to show you how we setup a continuous deployment stuff for a ASP.NET Core 1.0 project, without tackling TypeScript and Angular2. Please Remember: The tooling around .NET Core and ASP.NET Core is still in "preview" and will definitely change until RTM. I'll try to keep this post up-to-date. I wont use the direct deployment to an Azure Web App from a git repository because of some reasons, I mentioned in a previous post.
I will write some more lines about the other learned stuff in one of the next posts.
Building is the easiest part of the entire deployment process. To build a ASP.NET Core 1.0, solution you are able to use MSBuild.exe. Just pass the solution file to MSBuild and it will build all projects in the solution.
The *.xproj files use specific targets, which will wrap and use the dotnet CLI. You are also able to use the dotnet CLI directly. Just call dotnet build for each project, or just simpler: call dotnet build in the solution folder and the tools will recursively go threw all sub-folders, to look for project.json files and build all the projects in the right build order.
dotnet build
Usually I define an output path to build all the projects into a specific folder. This makes it a lot easier for the next step:
Some months ago, I wrote about unit testing DNX libraries (Xunit, NUnit). This didn't really change in .NET Core 1.0. Depending on the Test Framework, a test library could be a console application, which can be called directly. In other cases the test runner is called, which gets the test libraries passed as arguments. We use NUnit to create our unit tests, which doesn't provide a separate runner yet for .NET Core. All of the test libraries are console apps and will build to a .exe file. So we are searching the build output folder for our test libraries and call them one by one. We also pass the test output file name to that libraries, to get detailed test results.
This is pretty much all to run the unit tests.
Deployment was a little more tricky. But we learned how to do it, from the Visual Studio output. If you do a manual publish with Visual Studio, the output window will tell you how the deployment needs to be done. This are just two steps:
###1. publish to a specific folder using the "dotnet publish" command
We are calling dotnet publish with this arguments:
dotnet publish
Shell.Exec("dotnet", "publish \"" + webPath + "\" --framework net461 --output \"" +
publishFolder + "\" --configuration " + buildConf, ".");
###2. use msdeploy.exe to publish the complete publish folder to a remote machine.
The remote machine in our case, is an instance of an Azure Web App, but could also be any other target machine. msdeploy.exe is not a new tool, but is still working, even with ASP.NET Core 1.0.
So we just need to call msdeploy.exe like this:
Shell.Exec(msdeploy, "-source:contentPath=\"" + publishFolder + "\" -dest:contentPath=" +
publishWebName + ",ComputerName=" + computerName + ",UserName=" + username +
",Password=" + publishPassword + ",IncludeAcls='False',AuthType='Basic' -verb:sync -" +
"enablerule:AppOffline -enableRule:DoNotDeleteRule -retryAttempts:20",".")
C:\Program Files (x86)\IIS\Microsoft Web Deploy V3\msdeploy.exe
"https://" + publishWebName + ".scm.azurewebsites.net/msdeploy.axd"
I didn't mention all the work that needs to be done to prepare the web app. We also use Angular2 with TypeScript. So we also need to get all the NPM dependencies, we need to move the needed files to the wwwroot folder and we need to bundle and to minify all the JavaScript files. This is also done in our build & deployment chain. But in this post, it should be enough to describe just the basic steps for a usual ASP.NET Core 1.0 app.

In the past there was a study about critical data in GitHub projects. They wrote a crawler to find passwords, user names and other secret stuff in projects on GitHub. And they found a lot of such data in public projects, even in projects of huge companies, which should pretty much care about security.
the most of this credentials are stored in config files. For sure, you need to configure the access to a database somewhere, you also need to configure the credentials to storages, mail servers, ftp, what ever. In many cases this credentials are used for development, with lot more rights than the production credentials.
Fact is: Secret information shouldn't be pushed to any public source code repository. Even better: not pushed to any source code repository.
But what is the solution? How should we tell our app where to get this secret information?
On Azure, you are able to configure your settings directly in the application settings of your web app. This overrides the settings of your config file. It doesn't matter if it's a web.config or an appsettings.json.
But we can't do the same on the local development machine. There is no configuration like this. How and where do we save secret credentials?
With .Core, there is something similar now. There is a SecretManager tool, provided by the .NET Core SDK (Microsoft.Extensions.SecretManager.Tools), which you can access with the dotnet CLI.
This tool stores your secrets locally on your machine. This is not a high secure password manager like keypass. It is not really high secure, but on your development machine, it provides the possibility NOT to store your secrets in a config file inside your project. And this is the important thing here.
To use the SecretManager tool, you need to add that tool in the "Tools" section of your project.json, like this:
"Microsoft.Extensions.SecretManager.Tools": {
"version": "1.0.0-preview2-final",
"imports": "portable-net45+win8+dnxcore50"
Be sure you have a userSecretsId in your project.json. With this ID the SecretManager tool assigns the user secrets to your app:
"userSecretsId": "aspnet-UserSecretDemo-79c563d8-751d-48e5-a5b1-d0ec19e5d2b0",
If you create a new ASP.NET Core project with Visual Studio, the SecretManager tool is already added.
Now you just need to access your secrets inside your app. In a new Visual Studio project, this should also already done and look like this:
public Startup(IHostingEnvironment env)
_hostingEnvironment = env;
var builder = new ConfigurationBuilder()
.AddJsonFile("appsettings.json", optional: true, reloadOnChange: true)
.AddJsonFile($"appsettings.{env.EnvironmentName}.json", optional: true);
if (env.IsDevelopment())
// For more details on using the user secret store see
// http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=532709
// This will push telemetry data through Application
// Insights pipeline faster, allowing you to view results
// immediately.
builder.AddApplicationInsightsSettings(developerMode: true);
Configuration = builder.Build();
If not arr a NuGet reference to Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration.UserSecrets 1.0.0 in your project.json and add builder.AddUserSecrets(); as shown here.
Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration.UserSecrets 1.0.0
The Extension Method AddUserSecrets() loads the secret information of that project into the ConfigurationBuilder. If the keys of the secrets are equal to the keys in the previously defined appsettings.json, the app settings will be overwritten.
If this all is done you are able to use the tool to store new secrets:
dotnet user-secrets set key value
If you create a separate section in your appsettings.config as equal to the existing settings, you need to combine the user secret key with the sections name and the settings name, separated by a colon.
I created settings like this:
"AppSettings": {
"MySecretKey": "Hallo from AppSettings",
"MyTopSecretKey": "Hallo from AppSettings"
To overwrite the keys with the values from the SecretManager tool, I need to create entries like this:
dotnet user-secrets set AppSettings:MySecretKey "Hello from UserSecretStore"
dotnet user-secrets set AppSettings:MyTopSecretKey "Hello from UserSecretStore"
BTW: to override existing keys with new values, just call set the secret again with the same key and the new value.
BTW: to override existing keys with new values, just call set the secret again with the same key and the new value.
This way to handle secret data works pretty fine for me.
The SecretManager tool knows three more commands:
dotnet user-secrets clear
dotnet user-secrets list
dotnet user-secrets remove <key>
Just type dotnet user-secrets --help to see more information about the existing commands.
dotnet user-secrets --help
If you need to handle some more secrets in your project, it possibly makes sense to create a small batch file to add the keys, or to share the settings with build and test environments. But never ever push this file to the source code repository ;)
Our goal: Building, running tests, package NuGet Packages etc.
I already did a couple of MSBuild and FAKE related blogposts, so if you are interested on these topics as well go ahead (some are quite old, there is a high chance that some pieces might not apply anymore):
MSBuild & Web.config Transformations
Ok… now back to CAKE.
I created a pretty simple WPF app and followed these instructions.
My script is a simplified version of this build script:
var target = Argument("target", "Default");
.Does(() =>
.Does(() =>
MSBuild("CakeExampleWithWpf.sln", settings =>
If you know FAKE or MSBuild, this is more or less the same structure. You define tasks, which may depend on other tasks. At the end you invoke one task and the dependency chain will do its work.
The "build.ps1" will invoke "tools/cake.exe" with the input file "build.cake".
"build.ps1" is just a helper.
This Powershell script will download nuget.exe and download the CAKE NuGet-Package and extract it under a /tools folder. If you don't have problems with binary files in your source control, you don't need this Powershell script.
The output is very well formatted and should explain the mechanics behind it good enough:
Time Elapsed 00:00:02.86
Finished executing task: Build
Executing task: Default
Finished executing task: Default
Task Duration
Restore-NuGet-Packages 00:00:00.5192250
Build 00:00:03.1315658
Default 00:00:00.0113019
Total: 00:00:03.6620927
The first steps are pretty easy and it's much easier than MSBuild and feels good if you know C#.
The super simple intro code can be found on GitHub.
The web changed pretty fast within the last 20 years. More and more logic moves from the server side to the client side. More complex JavaScript needs to be written on the client side. And something freaky things happened the last years: JavaScript was moving to the server and Web technology was moving to the desktop. That is nothing new, but who was thinking about that 20 years ago?
The web changed, but also my technology stack. It seems my stack changed back to the roots. 20 years ago, I started with HTML and JavaScript, moving forward to classic ASP using VBScript. In 2001 I started playing around with ASP.NET and VB.NET and used it in in production until the end of 2006. In 2007 I started writing ASP.NET using C#. HTML and JavaScript was still involved, but more or less wrapped in third party controls and jQuery was an alias for JavaScript that time. All about JavaScript was just jQuery. ASP.NET WebForms felled pretty huge and not really flexible, but it worked. Later - in 2010 - I also did many stuff with SilverLight, WinForms, WPF.
ASP.NET MVC came up and the web stuff starts to feel little more naturally again, than ASP.NET WebForms. From an ASP.NET developer perspective, the web changed back to get better, more clean, more flexible, more lightweight and even more naturally.
But there was something new coming up. Things from outside the ASP.NET world. Strong JavaScript libraries, like KnockOut, Backbone and later on Angular and React. The First Single Page Application frameworks (sorry, I don't wanted to mention the crappy ASP.NET Ajax thing...) came up, and the UI logic moves from the server to the client. (Well, we did a pretty cool SPA back in 2005, but we didn't thought about to create a framework out of it.)
NodeJS change the world again, by using JavaScript on the server. You just need two different languages (HTML and JavaScript) to create cool web applications. I didn't really care about NodeJS, except using it in the back, because some tools are based on it. Maybe that was a mistake, who knows... ;)
Now we got ASP.NET Core, which feels a lot more naturally than the classic ASP.NET MVC.
Naturally in this case means, it feels almost the same as writing classic ASP. It means using the stateless web and working with the stateless web, instead of trying to fix it. Working with the Request and Response more directly, than with the classic ASP.NET MVC and even more than in ASP.NET WebForms. It doesn't mean to write the same unstructured, crappy shit than with classic ASP. ;)

It doesn't mean to write the same unstructured, crappy shit than with classic ASP. ;)
Since we got the pretty cool client side JavaScript frameworks and simplified, minimalistic server side frameworks, the server part was reduced to just serve static files and to serve data over RESTish services.
This is the time where it makes sense to have a deeper look into TypeScript. Until now it didn't makes sense to me. I was writing JavaScript for around 20 years, more and less complex scripts, but I never wrote so much JavaScript within a single project, than as I started using AngularJS last years. Angular2 also was the reason to have a deep look into TypeScript, 'cause now it is completely written in Typescript. And it makes absolutely sense to use it.
A few weeks ago I started the first real NodeJS project. A desktop application which uses NodeJS to provide a high flexible scripting run-time for the users. NodeJS provides the functionality and the UI to the users. All written in TypeScript, instead of plain JavaScript. Why? Because TypeScript has a lot of unexpected benefits:
This is why TypeScript got a great benefit to me. Sure a typed language is also useful in many cases, but - working with JS for 20 years - I also like the flexibility of the implicit typed JavaScript and I'm pretty familiar with it. that means, from my perspective the Good thing about TypeScript is, I am still able to write implicit typed code in TypeScript and to use the flexibility of JavaScript. This is why I wrote "You are still able to write JavaScript"
The web technology changed, my technology stack changed and the tooling changed. All the stuff goes more lightweight, even the tools. The console comes back and the IDEs changed back to the roots: Just being text editors with some benefits like syntax highlighting and IntelliSense. Currently I prefer to use the "Swiss army knife" Visual Studio Code or Adobe Brackets, depending on the type of project. Both are starting pretty fast and include nice features.
Using that light weight IDEs is pure fun. Everything is fast, because the machines resource could be used by the apps I need to develop, instead by the IDE I need to use to develop the apps. This makes development a lot faster.
Starting the IDE today means, starting cmder (my favorite console on windows). changing to the project folder, starting a console command to watch the typescript files, to compile after save. Starting another console to use the tools like NPM, gulp, typings, dotnet CLI, NodeJS, and so on. Starting my favorite light weight editor to write some code. :)
When reading the first time about unitys co-routine concept I thought by myself: How can this be useful?
In the meantime I found out that co-routines are one of the most interesting features of unity 3d.
For my actual game project I use them for several purposes; the most useful is to control interactive level tutorials.
The game contains an advisor avatar:
It guides the player through the level and automatically appears when a milestone is reached and the next hint is needed.
Co-routines are the perfect tool to manage this kind of tutorial.
Here is an example how such a tutorial code could look like:
protected IEnumerator HintPlayback(int moneyToAdd, int itemsToBuy)
yield return new WaitForSeconds(4);
ShowMessage("Please look at the pending tasks.");
while (!this.tasks.AreOpen) yield return null;
ShowMessage(string.Format("Please add some money - at least {0}$.", moneyToAdd));
while (!this.money < moneyToAdd) yield return null;
ShowMessage(string.Format("Perfect. Now please buy at least {0} items.", itemsToBuy));
while (!this.items.count < itemsToBuy) yield return null;
ShowMessage("You have completed the tutorial.");
yield break;
You can also skip one ore more hints if milestones are skipped: just check for both conditions (for milestone 1 and 2) in the WHILE loop of milestone 1.
Until yet I wrote more than 30 blog posts with Pretzel and it works pretty well. From my current perspective it was a good decision, to do this huge change, to move to that pretty cool and lightweight system.
I'm using MarkdownPad 2 to write the posts. Writing goes much easier. The process is now simplified and publishing is almost automated. I also added my blog CSS to that editor to have a nice preview.
The process of writing and publishing new posts goes like this:
This process allows me to write offline in the train, while traveling to the Office in Basel. This is the most important thing to me.
The other big change, was switching to English. I now get more readers and feedback from around the world. Now the most readers are from the US, UK, India and Russia. But also from the other European countries, Australia, Middle East (and Cluj in Romania).
Maybe I lost some readers from the German speaking Area (Germany, Switzerland and Austria) who liked to read my posts in German (I need to find a good translation service to integrate) and I got some more from around the world.
Writing feels good in both, English and in the MarkdownPad :) From my perspective it was a good decision to change the blog system and even the language.
to learn more about Pretzel, have look into my previous post about using pretzel.
In this post, I'm going to show you how we setup a continuous deployment stuff for a ASP.NET Core 1.0 project, without tackling TypeScript and Angular2. Please Remember: The tooling around .NET Core and ASP.NET Core is still in "preview" and will definitely change until RTM. I'll try to keep this post up-to-date. I wont use the direct deployment to an Azure Web App from a git repository because of some reasons, I [mentioned in a previous post] .
Finally we get .NET Core 1.0 RTM and ASP.NET Core 1.0 RTM. Yesterday Microsoft announces the release of .NET Core 1.0 and ASP.NET Core 1.0.
Scott Hanselman posted a great summery about it: .NET Core 1.0 is now released! You'll find more detailed information about .NET Core 1.0 on the .NET Blog in the Post "Announcing .NET Core 1.0" and pretty much detailed information about ASP.NET Core 1.0 in the .NET Web Development and Tools Blog in the post "Announcing ASP.NET Core 1.0"
Updating exiting .NET Core RC applications to the RTM, needs some attention. (Not as much as from RC1 to RC2, but there is a little bit to do). First of all: The Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 is needed, as pretty much mentioned in all of the Blog posts. To learn more about the need things to do, Rick Strahl posted a great and pretty detailed post about updating an existing application: Upgrading to ASP.NET Core RTM from RC2
This is a follow-up to my other FAKE posts:
The most obvious difference is that the output is a bunch of dlls and content files. Additionally you might have a web.debug.config or web.release.config in your source folder.
Both files are important, because they are used during a Visual-Studio build as a Web.Config Transformation.
With a normal build the transformation will not kick in, so we need a way to trigger the transformation "manually".
The sample project consists of one ASP.NET project and the .fsx file.
The "released" web.config should cover this 3 main transformation parts:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration xmlns:xdt="http://schemas.microsoft.com/XML-Document-Transform">
<add name="DefaultConnection"
xdt:Transform="SetAttributes" xdt:Locator="Match(name)"/>
<add key="developmentMode" value="true" xdt:Transform="SetAttributes"
<compilation xdt:Transform="RemoveAttributes(debug)" />
We reuse the MSBuild-Helper from FAKE and inject a couple of "Publish"-related stuff, which will trigger the transformation.
A few remarks: In the "normal" WebDeploy-World you would have a PublishProfile and it would end up with a .zip-file and a couple of other files that fill in parameters like the ConnectionString. With this MSBuild command I mimik a part of this behavior and use the temporary output as our main artifact. In my most apps I use web.config transformations only for "easy" stuff (e.g. remove the debug attribute) - if you are doing fancy stuff and the output is not what you want, please let me know.
This MSBuild command should apply all your web.config transformations.
Publish a ASP.NET project

A friend told me that his transformed web.config contained "$(ReplaceableToken_…)" strings. It seems that "connectionStrings" are treated specially. If you have a connectionString in your web.config and don't set "AutoParameterizationWebConfigConnectionStrings=False" you will get something like that:
<!-- Not the result we are looking for :-/ -->
<add name="DefaultConnection" connectionString="$(ReplacableToken_DefaultConnection-Web.config Connection String_0)" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
I would say this is not the result you are expecting. With the "AutoParameterizationWebConfigConnectionStrings=False" parameter it should either do a transformation or leave the default-connectionString value in the result.
Thanks to Timur Zanagar! I completely missed this issue.
This build will produce two artifacts - the build-folder just contains the normal build output, but without a web.config transformation.
The other folder contains a ready to deploy web application, with the web.release.config applied.
<add name="DefaultConnection" connectionString="ReleaseSQLServer" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
<add key="developmentMode" value="true" />
You can find the complete sample & build script on GitHub.
