• Visual Studio Team System DoNotExposeGenericLists - Does this make sense?

  http://www.gotdotnet.com/team/fxcop/Docs/Rules/Design/DoNotExposeGenericLists.html states the cause as: "Cause: A type contains an externally visible member that is a List<T> type...." with the justification being: "List<T> is a generic collection designed for performance not inheritance and, therefore, does not contain any virtual members. The following generic collections are designed for inheritance and should be exposed instead of List<T>." It makes sense that if you were going to inherit from a collection that Collection<T> would make more sense than List<T> because of the virtual ...Show All

• Visual Studio Connection string can't be changed when using OLAP cube

  Hi I am using Crystal Reports XI thru C# and an OLAP cube stored in a SQL Server 2000 DB, there is a report with an OLAP grid which connects to the OLAP cube. It seems that from the C# code, the connection string in this report can't be changed at all, only the userID and password, the report doesn't see the changes in the serverName or the databaseName. Any help or comment about this will be always appreciated. Thanks Unfortunately, the CR .NET SDKs do not allow changing of data source info at runtime for OLAP-based reports.  OLAP-based reports work best when used from Business Objects Enterprise wh ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Viewing unit test output before the unit test has completed

  Is there a way of viewing a unit test's output while the unit test is running I don't want to have to wait until the test is completed before I can view the console output   Andrew Nope, this is not possible :( Sorry! I will, however, add it as a request for the next version. Note: If you attach something to the stream for stdin/out etc you can possibly redirect the output there, to view it that way. THis will happen under the debugger for stderr (for example) ...Show All

• Visual Basic Any way to suppress the printing popup?

  I've developed a small utility program that prints data from a DataSet in a report format. It works great, exactly the way I need it to, but when I print, I always get that small pop-up window that cycles through and counts off the number of pages being sent to the printer.

• Visual Studio Team System DoNotMarkEnumsWithFlags

  Hi, FxCop recommends that I don't decorate my enum with the flags attribute, even though the enumeration contains bit fields. This rule appears to have a regex that looks for hex values.  This regex should be updated for enum declarations like the following: [Flags] public enum ValidationTypes : int { Any = int .MaxValue , Data = 1 << 0 , Model = 1 << 1 }   That's better.  The names idea is a good one and will certainly get across the meaning more clearly.
