• Visual Studio Team System Creating a Team Project

  Hi, I have problem creating a new Team Project now. After installation of Team System (single-server), I was able to create projects, but now it does not work anymore. The project seems to be partly created, because it can be seen from the Team Explorer, but without any work items, and no source control enabled. The same user is used, as was able to create projects earlier.

• .NET Development Typed datatable does not have public constructor that initializes DataColumn.Expression

  Hi, all! I have typed dataset, that contains (obviously) typed datatable. I've added one custom column that has an expression (concantenation of two other columns). Automatic dataset generator does not create public constructor for the datatable that initializes custom expression. I have to extend the class manually. Is there any way to set up generator to do that Thanks, Nikolay Ryabkov. Hi Nickolay, Did you try entering your custom expression in the property sheet of the typed dataset designer Once you do that it generates the code in the InitExpressions method which is called from InitClass.

• Visual Studio How can I programmatically "<inherit from parent or project defaults>"?

  Hi –   I’m trying to write a C# console application using Visual Studio 2005 that will read the settings of a C++ project file and reset any overridden values back to their default.   (I'm doing this so that I can take advantage of having defaults in common property sheets.)  What I’m trying to do here is pretty much the same thing as selecting <inherit from parent or project defaults> in the C++ Property Pages UI, except I want to do this programmatically.   I can easily get to the relevant classes (such as VCConfiguration and VCCLCompilerTool ) and change property values to whatever I wish, but I don’ ...Show All

• Visual C# Process & WaitForExit & OutputDataReceived

  . Rob, This is from a larger project so I've tried to cut and paste the relevant bits.  This took ages of trial and error to get working. Hope you can make sense of it. Cheers Steve The process is started from a class that also has a Windows form (to show progress).  The sendclip method starts the commandline process which returns as soon as the process is started - as then events take over.  The show dialog displays the form and kind of forces a 'wait'.  I use events to close the form when the process finishes and things carry on this.sendclip(clip, clip.Partialcommandline, Qsyst ...Show All

• Visual Basic Error Msg - "multiple definitions with identical signatures"

  I recently had to recover a hard drive. I was able to get an earlier draft of my program and rewrite most of what I'd lost, but meanwhile had to wipe the drive, load a newer version of XP, etc. I've gotten everything back except now I get this one last error msg and I can't find the source. This wasn't happening earlier when the very same language was running: "Private Sub InitializeComponent() has multiple definitions with identical signatures." This comes up in the designer view of a second form I call from a button click on form1. This should not have been caused by a conversion between Express and 05, so I'm not sur ...Show All

• Windows Forms form generic type inherit problem

  I have a base form frmEditBase<T>, then I can create derive form frmCustomerEdit : frmEditBase<Customer> and frmVendorEdit : frmEditBase<Vendor>, so that I can edit the Customer object or the Vendor object.

But when I open the designer frmCustomerEdit, it get an error: The designer could not be shown for this file because none of the classes within it can be designed. The designer inspec ...Show All

• Visual Studio Unable to Replace Old Files by New ones

  I am working with DSL Tools in VS 2005 Beta 2. In order to compile the Designer, DesignerUI and DomainModel Projects, I have to update all the source code. However, the templating file generators cannot replace the old files. Instead, they keep on generating new files. For example, I expect abc.cs is generated by the text templating file generate but abc4.cs is generated instead. How can the problem be solved On the other hand, after I delete some elements in the domain model (dsldm), I can still find some related things has not yet removed if i use the xml editor to view it.
