There's a couple of new articles up on The O'Reilly
Network today. The
first is about one of the coolest and frankly the most powerful data binding
controls in ASP.NET: The Repeater.
The author does a great job breaking down the different templates and how they
are used. He also gives a breif example of how to add a button to the item
template. IMHO, the beauty of the Repeater lies in it's ability for an data item
to be represented by basically any form of content the developer chooses. An
HTML table is the obvious choice, but it could be any possible text
format that you need to emit.
The
second article is Sam's
second on MC++. In this part, he covers the mixing of managed and unmanaged
code. He covers topics such as IJW, pinning pointers and using managed code from
unmanaged code. He promises a more in depth look at IJW in his next
part.
