• doonm Checking a CoreField's Availability on its WorkItem's DisplayForm

  I have some code that sets certain CoreFields' values no matter the Project or WorkItemType. One of these fields is the Description field, which is defined in the CoreField enum in the WorkItemTracking.Client assembly. The problem is, there does not seem to be a truly reliable way to check if this field is visible on the DisplayForm in CMMI Projects (and perhaps all projects, but I have only come across this problem in CMMI ones). The Des ...Show All

• Devart Blake xslt for VS test and coverage results

  Does anyone know whether there is an xslt tranformation schema available to make the VS test and coverage results more suitable for consulting E.g. to HTML or so.

• Mike Anderson Possible bug with profiler

  Hi. I searched and searched, and could not find the solution to this problem. I have a feeling it may be an obscure bug. We've been trying to write programs to be small and fast, but we've only just started optimizing them due to loadtest problems from our partners. We've been profiling them using the Team Edition profiler through command prompt. The major problem is that there are times when it will return 0.0% time for func + child for the _ma ...Show All
