• Visual Studio Deployment - I can't find the template

  Hi, I am a DSL - newbie! I just made the walkthrough 'Deploying a Domain-Specific Language'. I tried it several times but after the installation (no errors so far) the template does not appear under Templates in the Visual C# node. Maybe I made a mistake in the InstallerDefinition.dslsetup <installerDefinition xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/dsltools/dslsetup" productUrl="InsertProductUrlHere" defaultDirectoryName="DeploymentTestDesigner" productVersion="1.0.0.0" requiresCSharp="true" requiresVisualBasic="true" productCode="7b0800ad-5105-4b72-b6e9-ffaadb2ddb91&quo ...Show All

• Visual C# Generics and "==" or "!="

  I'm using Beta1 and within a generic class I'm attempting to use the != operator on a couple of variables of type T.  The compiler won't let me.  It says "Error 1  Operator '!=' cannot be applied to operands of type 'T' and 'T'...".  Why not   According to the documentation both the '==' and '!=' operators are implemented for all Objects and value types, (although for Objects the default implementation my not be desirable.)  What do I need to do to make the compiler allow the use of '==' and '!='   I'm thinking I should add something like where T : ...Show All

  Hi, Is there any known issue with enabling code coverage for Generic Classes After I enable code coverage for a Generic Class and run unit tests, the result that shows the code coverage is not displayed properly.

• Visual C++ datagridview refresh problem

  Was hoping someone could help with a refresh problem. I'm running a function to update the colours for the rows on the DataGridView in a tabbed pane based on some value from the dataSource of the DataGridView. However the DataGridView will not refresh the first time round. If I move to another tabbed pane and come back then the DataGridView is properly refreshed. What I think the problem might be is that the dataGridView has a few eventhandlers when a user changes the values. So what I did was to call the EndEdit before I refreshed, which didn't work. I've even refreshed the parent of the DataGridView which didn't work as we ...Show All

• Visual C++ Do I need to install .net FX 2.0 on other computer?

  As I used VS.net 2005 to write a win32 console application, and it turned out that I couldn't execute it on other computer without .NET Framework 2.0. As I know this is not the case with VS.net 2003(which using .NET Framework 1.1) Now I wanna ask "What can I do to make my program run on other computer without installing .NET Framework 2.0 " Or "There ain't any solution " Thx Now trying to do this with Visual C++ 2005 Express, the version of MSVCR80.DLL that ships with the Framework 2.0 installed by Visual 2005 Express is 8.0.50727 and the Linker of Visual 2005 Express generates a manifest that depends on ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Constructing a dynamic query with the 'OR' operator

  I wonder how you could construct dynamically a Dlinq query where you concatenate several Or operators. What I want to do is something like: string query = "SELECT * FROM profiles" ; int i = 0; foreach ( Tag tag in tags) { i++; if (i == 1) query += " WHERE " ; query += "profiles.tagId=" + tag.Id; if (i < tags.Count) query += " OR " ; } I haven't compiled this, so it may not be exactly correct, but you can do what you want with the code like this. Query<Profile> q = ...; ParameterExpre ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions VWD - Question on how to optimize my code

  Hello everyone, I'm trying to port over an application that I created in VB 2005 E to Visual Web Developer 2005 for a web application. I found that it's a little bit different coding for the web, and I'm forced to actually write some code now. Here is some code that I found to take a value from a row of data and store it in a variable. But I know that the way I'm doing it isn't the most effecient. More specically, I've forced myself to only be able to retrieve one colum of data per query. How can I position my cursor on a record, and be able to choose specific columns to store, rather than run two separate query as below Thanks in adv ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums Funny MSN Searches in CodeTalk

  Because of a 10,000 per day limit on MSN searches CodeTalk caches keyword searches so that many more than 10,000 per day can be performed.

  could i work with graphics in c++ console application i tried, but the visual studio dont come with the library nescessary, what can i do and one more question is it with c++ for console application that I can create games A console application is not the place to be writing games.  The console is based on the idea of the system waiting for input, and displaying text in response.  You want to write a windows program, which has a message pump.  In the first instance, you probably want to learn basic C++ a little more, if you were unclear on this point.  As for writing games, you sh ...Show All

• Visual Studio XSLT Debugger in VS2005 Standard?

  I am having trouble telling from the web site.  The product comparison identically lists "Full XML/XSLT" support for both Standard and Professional, but I had heard at one time that Standard did not include the XSLT debugger. Unfortunately, Standard is the only edition without a trial it seems, so it is difficult to check for oneself. If anyone could clarify whether or not Standard does include XSLT debugging, I would appreciate it. No, the Standard SKU does NOT include the XSLT debugger. It is only available in Professional and above. ...Show All

• SQL Server SSIS Requests...

  May be it's too late, but I think this requests could be scheduled at least for a SP1 if it's not possible for the RTM. 1) Execute Task without debugger: it would be very nice to be able to execute a single task without going in debugging mode. Just as you would ask "Start Without Debugging CTRL+F5" but for a single task 2) Customize default properties for task and component: when you drag a task on the package you get a default value for the properties that you could want to change; often I need to change the same property in the same way each time (for example I'd like to set the Batch Size for a OLE DB destination to 1000 instead than 0 ...Show All
