I understand the difference, and SO has a number of postings that explain in detail. But my question is just a curiosity: aren't the names backward? I'd like to think that "build" would mean "build as if its the first time" and "Re-build" would mean "build, considering what I built before" . But, not so, it's the other way around. Is anyone with me on this or am I just marching to a different drummer?
Is this just visual studio, or is this the terminology in other environs (e.g, eclipse, NetBeans).
Call me curious.
Actually I see build as just a normal build, if there's something there you use it and build upon it, and if not you build from the ground up, and rebuild as actively paying attention to what is already there and removing it, because you want to build from the ground up.
Then again I might be brain washed, who knows..

We need to setup a continuous integration infrastructure for a C# project. None of us has anything other than a very few user-side experience with these tools at all.
Our requirements would be:
we need a tool which runs on windows, because we want our project to be csc-built. Building with mono is not an option.
we use an SVN server and it's on linux, it needs to be able to get the source from that.
Could anyone of you more experienced collagues recommend a tool like that? :) Thanks in advance!
CruiseControl is a good choice. Have a look here: http://cruisecontrol.sourceforge.net/

Just food for thought:
What features would you consider in an ideal debugging tool?
What about debugging tools for distributed systems?
What do you think is missing from current debugging tools?
Being able to step backwards would make me very happy C person.
I would really like to see some more artificial intelligence in debuggers. Like they should be able to know which bug I was looking for and fix it automatically. Distributed AI would be even better. One day I dream of submitting a README to github and the code would be written for me automatically, 100% bug-free of course.
:-)

I have an iOS project in which there will be >100 targets created from the same code base. The targets have many similar characteristics, but different info.plist, Default.png files, etc...
I'm considering generating (or mutating) the project file programmatically. Since project file formats are versioned, I should be safe in the short term. Longer term this might not be the most ideal solution though. I'm also looking at scripting Xcode with applescript. It seems like there is a robust dictionary with target objects.
I'm looking for some input on a good approach to managing this. Anyone with experience doing this like to make a recommendation?
UPDATE: I ended up using applescript to script Xcode. This worked great, until XC4 broke everything...

I have a presentation due in about three hours and rather than handing in something I drew in pencil, I'd rather turn in something nicer to the client.
Is there something out there that lets me pick and drag common controls to create mockups?

Balsamiq, hands down.
Visio isn't bad if your willing to pay for something. It comes with widgets that resemble actual windows components.

I always seem to have a hard time starting a new Firefox extension. Can anyone recommend a good extension skeleton, scaffold, or code generator? Ideally one that follows all the best practices for FF extensions?
This one works nice: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/developers/tools/builder
Of course googling for "firefox extension generator" is where I found it ;)
Look up this eclipse plugin:
SPKet
It will take care of the skeleton and 50 other things, you will love it.
