http://blogs.teamb.com/yaminov The long way around Wed, 24 Sep 2008 17:44:51 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en Previously on this blog: we deployed a new search engine and used background jobs to index content. When you run a search query on CDN, you'll see just below your search results line of text that looks something like this: Query processed in 375ms (31.25ms server/network, 343.75ms database) This text ... http://blogs.teamb.com/yaminov/2008/09/24/cdn-search-part-3-search-results/ The previous post in this series described how GetPublished processes content and passes it to the Lucene index. I noted there was a problem with the final steps of the process, which were: GetPublished indexes the content by calling the search web service. GetPublished stores all data in ... http://blogs.teamb.com/yaminov/2008/09/23/cdn-search-part-2-background-jobs/ A few days ago we deployed a new search engine on all major CodeGear sites. At the heart of the engine is the Apache Lucene library, which I highly recommend. We'll be providing more information about our overall implementation in the near future (update: John Kaster published an article about ... http://blogs.teamb.com/yaminov/2008/09/21/cdn-search-part-1-new-search-engine/ One of the problems we had to face when adding event support to CDN was the additional time it takes to check if there are any events scheduled in days displayed in the navigation calendar. To improve client-side performance, I used an UpdatePanel and a Timer to delay loading that ... http://blogs.teamb.com/yaminov/2008/07/30/pagerequestmanagerservererrorexception-in-firefox/ We've just deployed another major feature on CDN - support for events. The Developer Network already had an events system, EventCentral, but it became difficult to maintain and enhance it. In particular, we wanted to add the rich document support and role-based workflow features of GetPublished. By integrating this ... http://blogs.teamb.com/yaminov/2008/07/29/events-on-the-developer-network/ Another feature, another article: Social Bookmarking on CDN We've wanted to support tagging for a long time, but the CDN team is pretty small and a lot of other stuff kept getting in the way. We did support bookmarking on other sites using the "Share This" module, but now ... http://blogs.teamb.com/yaminov/2008/05/30/tagging/ The ASP.NET version of what was then the Borland Developer Network went live two years ago today (actually, it first went online about a week earlier, but some DNS issues forced us to roll back). The original version, called "BDN 2" at the time, replicated almost all of the original ... http://blogs.teamb.com/yaminov/2008/05/24/two-years-old/ A user in the newsgroups asked how to insert live breaks in Delphi's XML documentation comments, used by HelpInsight to display information about types and members. This area has very little documentation, but as it turns out Delphi uses the same syntax as other .NET languages (so it can display ... http://blogs.teamb.com/yaminov/2008/05/24/help-insight/ I just implemented support for client-side caching for the CodeGear sites. Here's how it works: Enabling Client-Side Caching of Generated Content in ASP.NET.Share This | Email this page to a friend http://blogs.teamb.com/yaminov/2008/05/06/add-a-feature-write-an-article/ One of the core elements of GetPublished is the Document Adapter, or DocAdapter. DocAdapter is a set of web services and .NET assemblies for converting rich documents into standard HTML articles that can be displayed on the CodeGear Developer Network sites. By using DocAdapter, we can accept articles in multiple ... http://blogs.teamb.com/yaminov/2008/05/02/document-adapters/
