[IIS] The Tilde

In other web servers, more specifically apache and even non-web servers you
can use the tilde character to specify the root directory, or home. Before
I go reinventing the wheel (by parsing a tilde in the web controls for iis)
is there a setting that allows similar functionality in IIS?

Thanks,
Mythran

hi there, in a lot of user controls we are using "~" in server tags to reference objects like images <img src="~/images/something.gif" runat="server" />. with framework 1.0 the tilde got replaced by "/virtualdir" for example. now in framework 1.1 tilde is replaced with relative paths like "../../" this makes a lot of trouble, especially when you dynamically load user controls to an aspx-page. it seems that this relative "../.."-path...

I have code in a User Control for an image button like this: <asp:ImageButton id="__0" runat="server" text="Delete" ImageUrl="~/Images/ImageLibrary/icon_delete.gif" /> This used to work and it would display the image properly. However, since installing the latest service pack for the .NET Framework 1.1, the tilde seems to be expanding improperly. The code that is expanded to shows this: <input type="image"...

Hi, For a few years, I have been developing each of my clients websites using a seperate web site (unique IP) to solve problems with relative URL's between my local dev station and the production server. Recently, I have needed to collaborate with other developers using Source Safe. But, in order to get source safe working properly, you really need to be working in virtual directories of the default web site.

The web.config points *.html to a HttpHandler of our design. This setup serves over a million page views daily with almost no hassle whatsoever. We have brought a few affiliates onto our system who have URLs still floating in Google, Y! and other search engines from before they...

I have been learning about the AsyncOperation class and came across this code (sorry I got it a few days ago and don't remember the specific link). Anyway, I am wondering what the tilde (~) on line 12 does or what it means. I've been using C# for a while and somehow haven't encountered the tilde yet. Thanks. 1. namespace System.ComponentModel

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
