• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) No WPF vista RTM?

  Hi All, I seem this report that vista may not come bundled with wpf, can this be true "The January WinFX CTP will run on Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 but not on any beta or CTP builds of Windows Vista or Longhorn Server. Microsoft's plan remains for WCF, WPF and WF to be integrated into Vista, however, company officials reconfirmed."

• .NET Development MSDiscoCodeGenerator failing to import WebService/Schema, throwing System.Exception

  I am trying to add a web reference to my project, to a webservice that is in the same solution. The web reference page is properly discovering the web service (I see the standard reference web page stuff, including the methods, so I know the service is compiling ok). When I add the reference to the project, I get the folder created, and the Reference.Map and TestService.disco, and TestService.wsdl files created, but I get an Error in the Errir List window saying Custom Tool Error: Unable to import WebService/Schema. Exception of type 'System.Exception' was thrown. If I select one of the above files in the solution explorer, I see &q ...Show All

• Smart Device Development How to get the shared path

  this might sound a bit dodgy but i'm trying to run some tests on WM5.0 emulators and to speed up the process, the emulators share some files with the desktops is there any way i can get hold of the shared path within my CF2.0 application I understand this is not supposed to work because on a real device there is no such thing as a shared directory, but i still hope that someone can come up with a smart hack :) thanks in advance!

• Visual Studio Team System File Attachments NOT opening

  We are running TFS Beta 3 Refresh, Single Server. We can attach files (pictures, txt files etc) to a bug or task but when we try to open an attachment Internet Explorer spawns and just sits there forever trying to access a page. I can only get the attachment to display (and even then it only displays inside Internet Explorer and does not spawn the asssociated program to view the attachment) by pushing the stop button then hitting refresh.  THe attchement then displays inside of IE. I have added our server website to the trusted sites and that did not work.  I have also tried lowering the security settings for each zone and that did ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System IdentifiersShouldHaveCorrectSuffix

  IdentifiersShouldHaveCorrectSuffix On this page linked above, under the section "When to Exclude Messages", it is missing an exclusion instance that I believe should be in place. If I create a collection class and derive it from a base collection class, but want this new collection to also be a base class, then ending the collection's name with Base should be a valid exclusion reason. Example: MyCollectionBase derives from NameObjectCollectionBase. Currently, FxCop would flag MyCollectionBase with the IdentifiersShouldHaveCorrectSuffix error. public class MyCollectionBase : System.Collections.Sp ...Show All

• .NET Development referencing images with full path such as /images/header/left.gif

  Ok, I need to know what is the best standards and practice for the following scenario.   Note -- I've been developing web sites since 1996 and have developed a certain set of workarounds with each environment since VS 2002; however 2005 still exposes the same issue. When creating a web project, VS2002-2003, the default is to create a virtual application root off your existing IIS.  So your are testing your web application, you load URL as follows: http://localhost/AppName/homepage.aspx The problem resides when referencing global images; I have a designer work on a template and since the template can be loaded or used anyw ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Bug fix request

  Hi; There is one bug I hope gets fixed in Office 12. (Fixing it in a service pack for Office 9 - 11 would be really nice too.) Sometimes the menus I add to Word stop calling my event handlers. A very easy way to see this happen is open two instances of Word, close the first instance of Word, then close the document (but not Word itself) of the second instance. The menu objects will now fault if you access the enabled property and they will no longer call the event handlers for the menus. thanks - dave Hi; I'm not disagreeing with you. I was already doing what you suggested . I just want to make sure MS fixes it so there are no exception ...Show All
