Your mission, should yoo choose to accept it...
The other day I posted a piece about a problem I had consuming an assembly in ASP.NET Version 1 that had been built with Version 1.1. I also offered some links to information that explained how to solve the problem.
Anyways, I'd like everyone to have the chance to witness the problem for themselves and to try and solve it - it's worthwhile if you don't currently know how to do it; I learnt a heck of a lot that afternoon :-)
Here's what seems like a simple little puzzle :-) If you get time you might like to have a go at it. If you do, please drop me a line to let me know how you got on.
You will find an assembly named ConeOfSilence at the following address:
Grab the assembly and import it into a project. Consume the assembly in a webpage to spit out the "secret" message, here's some sample code for doing that:
Dim cone As New ConeOfSilence.Silence()
Literal1.Text = cone.GetSecretMessage()
There's no real trickery going on, for example, there's no WSE or encryption... it's all just good fun.
