Running Web Applications on Windows Vista with Visual Studio 2005

You can use Visual Studio to create and work with ASP.NET Web sites (which are also known as Web applications) in a variety of configurations: local Internet Information Services (IIS) sites, file-system sites, File Transfer Protocol (FTP)–deployed sites, and remote sites. For guidelines to help you decide when to use each type of Web site, see Types of Web Sites in Visual Web Developer.

After installing IIS, you can configure Visual Studio to run and debug local ASP.NET Web sites in IIS instead of the built-in ASP.NET Development Server. When you create a local IIS Web site, the pages and folders for your site are stored in a folder under the default IIS folder for Web sites, which is located at LocalDrive:\Inetpub\Wwwroot. Visual Studio also creates the appropriate IIS configuration so that the Web site is recognized by IIS as an application.

To create and work with ASP.NET Web sites without installing IIS, you can create a file-system Web site. For more information about file-system Web sites, see Types of Web Sites in Visual Web Developer.

events and delegates

some useful thing on events and delegates...

//Declare a delegate (class member)
private delegate void UpdateProgressBar();

//Create an instance of the delegate for us to use (class member)
private UpdateProgressBar updateProgressDelegate;

void StepProgressBar()
{
progressBar.PerformStep();
}

//Method executed on a different thread
DoDatabaseUpdate()
{

//Associate a method to our delegate (defined above)
updateProgressDelegate = new UpdateProgressBar(StepProgressBar);
for (;;) //Some loop
{
//Code for the lengthy operation
...
...
this.Invoke(updateProgressDelegate );//Update the progress bar by calling the delegate
}
}
