• Visual Studio Team System Extendable?

  I am interested in extending FxCop.  Is it extendable at the framework level Can we write event handlers or Services that say – once an error report is created it is sent to a server which displays the report in a list for all to see. Thanks FxCop wasn't designed as a general framework for driving analysis and results. We recommend using the command-line tool in a scripted system for this sort of work. For the next major release, we are looking at componentizing certain aspects of FxCop, such as rules configuration and output, to support a broader range of execution scenarios, but we haven't yet made def ...Show All

• SQL Server SOAP API

  Is there any API available for getting assigned role information For eg: A user xyz has a browser role and other user zzz has a content manager role. Now, I should be able to pass the user credentials and get back the assigned roles. Thanks, No, such an API does not exist. The reason is that the "roles" that a user is assigned to depends on the item in which they are acting on. A given user might have "Content Manager" role on one item in the catalog, but not have any role on some other item in the catalog. In order to determine the roles in which different user groups are in for a particular item in the ca ...Show All

• Visual Basic Overloads in a Module

  Can I not have multiple Overloads in a single Module I'm converting from VB6 to .net and I'm having the issue of trying to use the same sub or function with different forms. I thought the solution might be to use an overloads statement, but it seems to only let me use one. Here is an example: Overloads Sub gp_DisableInputs( ByRef frm As frm1, ByRef DIndx As Short ) Overloads Function gf_Method( ByRef frm As frm2 , ByRef DStructure As DirectStructure) As Boolean The first one seems to work fine, I get the blue line under the second and I can't complie. Any suggestions ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Problems with state persistence and timer services

  Hi, I've experimented with adding the SQL state, timer and tracking services to the Lab1 sample step 4 (the expense report approval workflow). The tracking service works fine, but it seems that the state and timer services get the engine stuck on the ListenForManagerApproval activity. If I disable the state and timer services the workflow unfolds as expected. I use the (really cool) Workflow Monitor sample to view the results, and the progress is evident every time: With the state and/or timer service enabled, the flow gets stuck on ListenForManagerApproval  and then after a while the workflow gets the status "aborted". Any ideas why ...Show All

• Smart Device Development "the new connection uses a data provider that is not supported"

  When attempting to estbalish any form of data connection in my mobile device project I get - "the new connection uses a data provider that is not supported" That's in designers, right (there's no such message in NETCF runtime). Which data base you're trying to connect to NETCF only supports SQL Mobile and SQL Server 2000/2003; you'd need 3rd party provider for other DBs. ...Show All

• Smart Device Development CF doesn't handle new lines as \r\n ??

  I wrote a simple control which used the Graphics.DrawString method to draw some text.  When the text contained a newline "\r\n" it would only display correctly when I ran the app on my desktop, but when I ran it on the Pocket PC emulator it displayed the newline as 2 square boxes. Unfortunately Enviroment.NewLine doesn't exist in the CF and I even tried using the Stringbuilder.AppendLine (it doesn't exist in the CF) or anything that could get me a valid newline. Is it that Graphics.DrawString() method in the compact framework that cannot handle newlines tried that already before, it does not ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Q: How do you Filter system generated cs files(such as class.designer.cs) in FxCop?

  Anyone tried using FxCop that is capable of disregarding system generated code (cs files such as class.designer.cs) You can suppress individual violations within the generated code, however, there is no way to ignore all generated code. Although, Code Analysis in Visual Studio does shutdown noise on members marked with CompilerGeneratedAttribute and GeneratedCodeAttribute. What exact violations are you trying to ignore I ask this, because at the moment we are starting to work with other teams within Microsoft to clean up warnings within generated code.   ...Show All
