• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Pixel width "Thickness" for shapes

  Is it possible to draw shapes with a single pixel width I am working on an engineering program in WPF and need to scale drawings.

• Windows Forms DataGridView - when I select an item in a combobox i dont want a new row of comboboxes

  Hi everyone, I've searched the forums far and wide and I cannot find an answer to my question. Basically, I have a form with a number of items on it including a datagridview. I have a sub in this form which initializes the datagridview with a number of combobox columns (all pulled from different datatables), and because I have used raw queries to populate the datatables, all columns are unbound. Whenever I select a value from any combobox, a new ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System TestClass getting instantiated for each TestMethod run?

  It seems as though a new [TestClass()] is instantiated before each [TestMethod()] is run.  If that is the case, then there is no clean way to preserve state within the class between runs of each [TestMethod()] .   This seems like a pretty major "flaw" in either my assumption about how I expected this to work or in the actual implementation. Example: Based on the code sample below, If I have an ordered test tha ...Show All

• SQL Server nvarchar vs char

  Hi, This is a design question but performance and efficiency related so I hope this is the right forum. If I define a table column to be nvarchar(2) would it be more efficient to define it as char(2) I am thinking that for an nvarchar(2) there would be a byte or two of storage used to hold a length of the value held and SQL server would need to do some work to interpret this. I have reference which suggests using char(2) is the ...Show All
