Release Indihiang Tool for x64 Platform

After released version 0.1, I got feedbacks about Indihiang tool for x64 environment. Actually Indihiang tool can run on x64 environment. You just copy all Indihiang files into x64 machine or you install a setup file of Indihiang tool. This can run because it utilizes WOW64 feature. WOW64 is a compatibility environment provided by the operating system that allows a 32-bit application to run on a Windows 64-bit operating system. It works but this tool can’t utilize x64 advantages so I want to port and build for x64 machine.

Porting to .NET Framework 3.5 for 64-Bit.

.NET Framework supports for 64-bit started from version 2.0. Microsoft also provides Visual Studio 2005/2008 tool that we can compile .NET app on specific platform through configuration manager.

Indihiang tool code was written in pure managed code so it’s not difficult to migrate into 64-bit platform. I tested the binary file of Indihiang tool and run well.  After that, I packaged Indihiang tool into a setup project in Visual Studio 2008.  All packaging was success and then I copied into x64 machine ( I used a x64 machine with Windows Server 2008 R2 x64), uppsss… I got an error message while installing as below

This error is due to my custom action (x64 platform target) in setup project still has dependency from 32-bit MSI library. As we know, MSI can run on 32-bit and 64-bit. To solve this, I must force MSI to run 64-bit .NET library to execute my custom action. The best way is to change MSI configuration using ORCA. After I changed MSI configuration I run my MSI on 64-bit platform.

Now, you can download the setup file of Indihiang tool for x64 platform on http://www.codeplex.com/indihiang

Tampilan ASP.NET jadi Ladyboy ketika Dibuka dengan IE8

Minggu lalu gw install IE8 pada notebook Windows Vista 32-bit. Secara fitur memang banyak sekali ditawarkan oleh IE8. Ada bisa melihat para developer blogger memberikan informasi kelebihan dari IE8.

Terlepas pro dan kontro terhadap IE8. Gw sendiri setelah install ada beberapa anomali seperti ketika kita masuk website yang ada flash kadang kalanya IE8 mengalami hang walaupun flash gw sudah di upgrade ke flash 10. kalau anda pakai flash 9 lebih parah hang ketikan memakai browser IE8.

Aplikasi ASP.NET

Setelah gw upgrade browser IE8, gw melanjutkan untuk coding ASP.NET. Gw perhatikan seperti ada anomali yaitu tampilan berubah. Gw oprek sana-sini rupanya tidak berubah sama sekali…oh.shiit..ini apa sih. Gw coba jalanin Virtual OS gw dengan Windows Vista tetapi IE7 dengan gw browse lagi aplikasi ASP.NET, well bagus dan tidak berubah. Haaah, ini kambing merah ada di IE8.

Gw coba google dan masuk diskusi baik eksternal dan internal mengenai IE8, rupanya memang banyak sekali cerita dibalik IE8. So bagi anda yang sudah membangun aplikasi ASP.NET dengan memanfaatkan CSS, menangis anda karena tampilan ASP.NET akan berubah ketika dilihat dengan browser IE8

Solusi tercepat supaya tampilan aplikasi ASP.NET normal pada IE8 maka setiap page dipasang script diantara tag <HEAD> </HEAD>:

   1: <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7" />

kalau page banyak banget dan gak paka masterpage yang sial anda tapi kalau pakai masterpage maka cukup menambahhkan di masterpage saja.

Solusi panjang maka aplikasi mesti revisi CSS sesuai dengan kebaruan pada IE8, cek di URL ini

Alternatif anda bisa menggunakan CSS Adapter, itu info dari komunitas tapi tetap aja masih problem ketika browse melalui IE8
