Chocolatey Gallery. RequestReduce - Automatic CSS background image optimization and spriting as well as Javascript and CSS merging and minification. nQuant - Home. A Fast CSV Reader. Introduction One would imagine that parsing CSV files is a straightforward and boring task. I was thinking that too, until I had to parse several CSV files of a couple GB each.

After trying to use the OLEDB JET driver and various Regular Expressions, I still ran into serious performance problems. At this point, I decided I would try the custom class option. App.config transformation with the new MsBuild task XslTransformation in .NET4. I want to have different connection strings, server paths, etc. in my app.config files for different build configurations. MS have solved this in a nice way inVS2010 Web Deployment with web.config transformations but that's regretfully not available in my non web projects.

I'm trying to accomplish something similar to my app.config files by including xslt files in my projects and then have MsBuild execute transformations at build time. I just found that in version 4 of the Microsoft.Build.Tasks (Microsoft.Build.Tasks.v4.0.dll) there is a new task called XslTransformation which is cool, as we no longer have to write our own custom task for this!
