Absolute URL in ASP bundle

Question

I use a jQuery library for Google Maps, and it depends on the Google scripts to be loaded first. I\'d like to be able to include both in the bundle as such:

If you are using a version of System.Web.Optimization >= 1.1.2, there is a new convenient way of overriding the url's for Styles and Scripts. In the example below, I am grabbing a CdnBaseUrl from web.config to use as the base url for all scripts and stylesheets:

public class BundleConfig
{
    private static readonly string BaseUrl = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["CdnBaseUrl"];

    public static void RegisterBundles(BundleCollection bundles)
    {
        // This is the new hotness!!
        Styles.DefaultTagFormat = "";
        Scripts.DefaultTagFormat = "";

        bundles.Add(new ScriptBundle("~/bundles/js").Include(
            "Your scripts here..."
        ));

        bundles.Add(new StyleBundle("~/bundles/css").Include(
            "Your css files here..."
        ));
    }
}
