.NET Development Thread safety of instance member Regex.IsMatch()?
I'm using a singleton object which holds a precompiled Regex object: _identityRegex = new Regex( pattern ) In an instance method, that may be unpredictably busy, I make a call to the IsMatch method of the Regex object: bool ok = _identityRegex.IsMatch( input ) Question is: According to the Regex documentation " Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe ". But I need to know whether this particular one is thread safe - or if will I need to put this call inside a lock (monitor), with the potential wait it entails Thanks, Niels Mark is correct.

Visual Studio Team System Reports contain no data (Possible internationalisation error?)
TFS is working fine and our team has started using it in earnest now as we move our first big project over to it. However, the reports, even the Work Items report remains totally blank of data which is puzzling to say the least. I've been following the suggestions on here about checking the last time the cube was updated and I've refreshed that and all seems ok. One observation I do have, is the line on the report which says: "Report Generated: 12/9/2005 2:32:39 PM by <domain account>; Last Warehouse Update: 09/12/2005 14:05:56" You will notice that the two dates are in different formats: Reporting Services is in US form ...Show All

Visual Studio Using msbuild for a .csproj with alternate referenced assembly locations
I'm trying to figure out the best way to use msbuild for building a number of various solutions / projects which all tie together to build a final application. The problem I'm having is that I have .csproj project files which reference assemblies in projects that are in other solutions; and msbuild can't find those assemblies when building in an environment where the absolute solution root(s) and relative directory locations of the various solutions / projects isn't the same as when we build in Visual Studio. 1) The <Reference> element in the .csproj file doesn't seem to be documented anyplace.
