Review - Enterprise Lib / CodeSmith

Enterprise Library3, and 2.

Had issues where Micheal had signed his own assemblies that wrapped EL2, and when I had EL3 installed it all didn't work.

We Used EL3 initally in the HelloWorld 3-Tier app for the :

Database Connection Block

However we could have just used ADO.

Code
[Serializable]
Interfaces
Contracts
[Browsable Attributes]
Reflections

Codesmith / Nettiers
How easy is it to setup and get going?
How simple can you make it?
Looked at config setup and really quite good.

We used custom methods - by putting our own Stored Proc in the Database - GetCurrentQuiz, Codesmith generated the classes we need to wire up.

Subversion
Loved the plug in for Windows explorer

Compared to Visual Source Safe, seems easier to use, and has mergeing.

ASP.NET
So many tutorials (57 in the db section) and videos to watch
and Starter Kits to work through.

To Do
DaveM - build a really simple CodeSmith project
DaveM - setup Subversion live on the net somewhere to host projects
DaveM - asp.net
