• Visual C++ Greyed out class member functions in wizard bar / Class View goes to .h

  In VS2005 I'm finding that some (C++) class member functions are greyed out in the wizard bar (the horizontal toolbar at the top of the editor window with 2 dropdown lists, classes and class member functions). Also, if I double click on these ones in the Class View (tree control) I go to the declaration in the .h file rather than the definition in the .cpp file. Why is this I can't see anything too odd in my code layout and in VS2003 this wa ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista CallExternalMethod and CorrelationToken

  Hello, I hope Microsoft makes the CorrelationToken Property of the CallExternalMethod Activity bindable. At the moment it is very difficult to create a sequence activity which encapsulates the CallExternalMethod and the HandleExternalEvent Activity and make use of the correlation part. The first problem is that you can do a binding to a CorrelationToken. The OwnerActivityName could only be set at design time.. ..and the OwnerActivityName can ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System ASP.NET source

  Is it possible to analyze ASP.NET source using FXCOP If so, are there any examples out there of how it is done FxCop actually analyzes the compiled binary and not the source. To use FxCop and ASP.NET, we actually recommend using the new aftermarket (free) Web Application Projects . Unlike the Web Site project that comes out of the box with Visual Studio 2005, the Web Application Project produces a single bin ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Initial Impressions from TechEd

  "Data Dude" Team: I attended your sessions this week at TechEd (except the chaulk talk), and even did the Hands On lab.  All-in-all, I am super impressed and can't wait to start using it against some real systems I've been working on.  Great job! One thing in particular that I noticed (or perhaps, didn't notice) was the lack of an 'ERD-like' designer for table / relationship modeling.  I first saw this while going ...Show All

  I've used the sample shipped with Beta2 to build a custom DataGridViewColumn that supports masking.  When editing the columns in a DataGridView my new control shows up as one of the DataGridViewColumn types (kudos!).  However, the problem comes when I try and set some of the custom properties on the column through the Column Editor designer.  The designer sees the properties and I can set the values, but it doesn't write the value ...Show All
