• Visual Studio Team System Howto stop TeamBuild from deploying, if tests fail

  Hi, in TFS B3r a TeamBuild gets deployed, even if tests fail. Since I am also using TB to deploy to our production environment, I would like to let it deploy only, when all tests pass. How can I achieve this Hi Tilli Unfortunately there is no straightway to do this. However you can apply a workaround by editing the Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Build.targets file to get this working. 1. Set the ContinueOnError = " true " flag in the TestToolsTask target to 'false'. 2. However there is a broader impact of this. On setting this flag as 'false' MSBuild process stops as soon as a test fails. Hence you will run into an i ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Newbie question about removing the use of MSDTC

  Forgive the lameness of this question. I am part of a team that has developed a Visual Studio 2005 web application that currently uses MSDTC and Microsoft Enterprise Library. The problem is that my hosting team will not run the MSDTC as a service as they say it opens up too many ports to the database server and this could be dangerous for a web application. Where do I start in rectifying this Is it possible to easily remove where MSDTC is being used and if so what will I lose I can't afford for the use of MSDTC to be a showstopper but the hosting team have told me it is more than their jobs worth to run it. If anyone has advice on the ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista CBaseFilter derived class plays video great, but the audio goes silent after a few seconds...

  Hi all, I have built a filter, derived from CBaseFilter, with two input and two output pins (audio and video IO). The IO pins I derived from CBaseInput and CBaseOutput pins. I have different classes for audio and video pins: i.e. I have 4 types of pin; Audio In, Audio Out, Video In, Video Out. All testing to date has been done in GraphEdit using a webcam & associated mic for input, and default sound & video renderers for output. The Video IO works fine, with the play and stop functionality working too. The Audio IO works for a few seconds before breaking up and going silent. When the Audio pins are connected, the gr ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Multiple Check Out

  Does VS 2005 permit multiple check out of the same file from Visual Source Safe It really seemed like a step backwards from VS6 to VS2003 when only 1 person at a time could check out a project file. Yes, Visual Studio Team Foundation Server supports both shared or exclusive check out. By default, shared/multiple checkout is enabled for source files, text files, etc. and disabled for binaries, images, etc. You can modify these settings by right-clicking on your Team Foundation server in the Team Explorer and selecting Source Control Settings.

• Visual Studio Custom build step for C# files ?

  I would like to define a custom build step to generate C# source code files from a C# interface. The generated files are to be part of another assembly in the same solution. I want the generation to take place whenever the cs file containing the interface has changed. In VC++ it is possible to define a custom build step, with dependencies, in the source file properties page. Not so in VC#. (Using a project pre-build step would mean that the files are generated on every build.) I assume there is some way to do this with MSBuild but I'm having trouble finding information on how. Can anyone point into the documentation for me ...Show All
