• Visual Studio Team System TF30321: The name you typed is already used for another team project

  I had a project fail part way through creation (sharepoint timed out on creation for some reason) and it also failed to "back out" of creation properly.  Now when I try to create a project with that same name I get error TF30321 "TF30321: The name you typeed is already used for another team project on the Team Foundation Server.  Type a unique name for the new team project." I would have thought this was a big problem, but I had already successfully created a project and have since created another project so it seems to be some intermittent issue or timing problem.  I'll post up on the failure separately.  What I'm more c ...Show All

• Smart Device Development What is App.Config and how can I use it?

  I'm having a problem with .NET CF1.1 SP3. When connecting to a JBOSS web app via webservice, I get a webexception. This appears to be caused by SP3 (this wasn't present when I was running bog standard 1.1). Apparently... through research it looks as though the following is occurring: Q: Why do I receive a strange error message when debugging my Web Services client which talks to an Apache web server A: The problem here is that when using the debugger to connect to a web server then a custom HTTP header named VsDebuggerCausalityData is emitted into the call.

• Visual Basic Shortcut problems

  I created a VS 2003 deployment project and I've set it up the way I want, even with a custom installer class.  At first I had shortcuts on the desktop and in the program files that were working.  Now, the shortcuts will uninstall the program if you double click them.  When looking at where they are pointed, they show the installation folder and not the executable.  I've recreated the shorcuts and changed other things, but nothing helps.  Does anyone have any ideas I figured out how to do this without manually editing the .msi This same question was asked in several different thr ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Let the submitter close the bug/issue only

    In VSTS how its is possible to enforce that only the submitter can close a bug/issue. Which field or work flow definitions have to be changed or added Thanks, Saurabh I'm sorry to say that this feature is not supported in V1. This has been requested frequently though, so it's on the radar for possibly supporting in the next version. The closest thing you can do is create groups of people that do common operations (e.g.: developers group to resolve code-defect bugs, Testers group to close bugs, etc), and add transition security to allow transitions to these groups (e.g. only members of the ...Show All

• Visual Studio How to access the VS project settings (stored in Settings.settings file) from inside a custom editor in runtime?

  Hi! I have implemented a VSIP custom designer/editor used to define some custom objects. The editor is registered for my custom file type “lcd”. Each lcd file inside VS is opened with my editor, which consists of several text boxes, where the user enters data. The user has the option to generate code files based on the data he entered in the editor. He also has the option to choose the path for generated files. Each lcd file is part of a project inside VS. I need to implement a custom setting on the level of the project that will be used to save the path of generated files. The user will set this path for g ...Show All
