That's like prosecuting Genghis Khan for littering...

Funnily enough, Luton was the one place they chose to rape the livestock and burn down the women.

Only because in Luton it's near impossible to tell the difference...

In high school, someone did that to a series of student lockers right outside my home room (and hence my locker area). They stopped short of the door so as to not be seen... my locker was right outside the door.

I have been developing in Windows since 1996. And loved it.
Last week one of my clients computer crashed.
His application was in ASP.NET, .NET 4.5. A very small application for managing his Gym.
I had to install SQL Server Express 2012. It took all day. First install .NET runtime. Then during SQL install, had to download and install Powershell. Then install IIS7.
This took up my whole day.
Then restore the Database etc. etc.
One of my developers was working on PhP and MySQL on his own. He showed me how easy it was to just copy XAMPP, start Apache and MySQL and copy the PhP application and start work. No installation, nothing.
In MS, you have to install so many things, then as you keep on installing applicaion, even for a test drive, and then uninstall, this slows down windows. SO much garbage accumulates in the registry.
Why can MS produce apps that can only be copied and run, as earlier in Wordperfect, or Wordstar, or presently as XAMPP?
Is there somebody out there who has influence on MS to ask them to do this.
Since I have now started working in PhP, I find it so SUPERFAST and easy and it has so many FREE third party tools that I converted the Gym application to PhP and MySQL in just 2 days which had taken full to weeks to develop in .NET

Well, PHP sucks so I would never prefer it to e.g. ASP.NET MVC. Nevertheless, I agree with you. I hope that some of this changes in the future (at least with Chocolatey we now have a good package manager). The single / copy deploy of ASP.NET MVC vNext seems to be exactly what you are looking for.
|
|
|
|

I do believe he would be in the same or worse position trying to deploy MVC, he still has the runtime and IIS requirement for his clients server + all the different libraries needed to run MVC on the server.
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity

I was talking about ASP.NET MVC vNext, which can also run on a Linux or MacOSX machine without installing IIS or any other web server. Which libraries should be required to run MVC on the server? The libraries, which are not included in the .NET Framework should be deployed with your application in the "bin" directory...

Do you know how to do a system back up in Linux?
You log in as sudo and copy all the files to somewhere.
So do a restore? Yes, you got it.
Oh, and when you do install/uninstall on Linux, sudo apt-get xxxxx, it just works, Every time. Perfectly.

Unless you need a newer version of some software that isn't supported by your package manager yet, then the whole thing starts to become a nightmare.
The only thing that seems to be different about APT and installing an application on windows is the part where you download it yourself, and neither are foolproof.

Try installing Microsoft Exchange! Now that really is horrible.

Sounds more like a deployment issue.

Someone marked this original post as spam.
Why is someone doing this?
This is the lounge and this is a good question / message.
I agree with the original message. I've been developing on Windows since Win 3.0 (around 1994) and I feel the same way. Way too much dependency of Microsoft apps on registry -- like they're trying to tie everything to that so things can't be moved easily to other OSes.
I always try to build my own apps so they can just be copied over and run. Microsoft has talked out of the side of its face on this issue itself. Trying to say you could do
one-click deployment or xcopy deployment.
Yeah, they talked about it, but then never did it themselves or really got behind it.
