I was just about to make a post talking about the switch over to dasBlog. I was going to talk about what I liked and didn't like and whatever, but mostly I was going to talk about the work I have been putting in on writing code that will filter out code and format it nicely.
I wrote and tested an HttpModule which loads a Reponse Filter that parses the Html looking for <code> tags and formats the code inside those nicely.
So I go to write my first post, and I am looking for a hyperlink button in the texteditor, but instead I see this icon that look like a C# file. "No, I did not just waste all that time" I thought.
public bool IsTimeWasted(String name){
return true;
}
Public Function IsWasted(ByVal time As TimeSpent) As Boolean
If time IsNot Nothing Then
Return True
Else
Return False
End If
End Function
var s;
s = 'asdf';
document.getElementById("asdf"); /* comment */
SELECT * FROM
ThingsToDo
WHERE
WastedTime <> 1
AND
Task = 'Writing HttpFilter'
0 rows returned
So you can see I basically wasted my time doing all that.
This tool doesn't provide an HTML code type, and I used J# in place of Javascript, but it works ok I guess.
The on thing it is really lacking is that it doesn't maintain indents!?!? I manually restored the indents above, otherwise my vb code would look like this:
Public Function IsWasted(ByVal time As TimeSpent) As Boolean
If time IsNot Nothing Then
Return True
Else
Return False
End If
End Function
Which is weird, b/c it looks fine in the preview window... I will have to look into that.
