ASP.NET RSS Toolkit

Research: "ASP.Net RSS Toolkit gives ASP.Net applications the ability to consume and publish to RSS feeds.


Features include:
RssDataSource control to consume feeds in ASP.NET applications
Works with ASP.NET data bound controls
Implements schema to generate columns at design time
Supports auto-generation of columns at runtime (via ICustomTypeDescriptor implementation)
Caching of downloaded feeds both in-memory and on-disk (persisted across process restarts)
Generation of strongly typed classes for feeds (including strongly typed channel, items, image, handler) based on a feed URL (the toolkit recognizes RSS, Atom and RDF feeds) or a file containing a sample feed. Allows programmatically download (and creation) of feeds using strongly-typed classes."
