• Visual Studio Team System Creation of Non-Source / Empty Projects

  Our company has traditionally used Visual SourceSafe for both code projects and document management. I'm evaluating the possibility of migrating to TFS Source Control. I understand how to create a development / code project. However, I have been unsuccessful in creating a non-source project. Let me clarify by saying that I'm not talking about adding non-source files to a development project, I'm talking about an entire "project" and/o ...Show All

• Visual C++ Why SetViewportOrg can not work for Memory DC?

  The following is a simple code. The class CSrlBufBarView derived from CScrollView. If we delete the line dcMem.SetViewportOrg(ptImgPos + dcMem.GetViewportOrg()); - just don't call SetViewportOrg for Memory DC, it's OK.

• .NET Development Permissions required to Use System.Diagnostiscs namespace

  Hi, In ASP.NET 1.1, we have developed a module which includes a call to GetProcessById() function of System.Diagnostics.Process. This works fine if the ASP.NET is running under System context or if the ASPNET user is an administrator. The problem is, in the user's machine, the user context under which the ASP.NET is going to run should not have adminstrative privileges. At that time, this shows an exception with the ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Server Express Security?

  We are releasing an application built on SQL Server Express in the next few months.  Our clients are mostly small companies with little technical knowledge, and they will be using our application on desktop computers where everyone likely logs in as the same user.  As such, my thinking is that we setup SQL Server Express as in SQL Server Authentication mode.  This way they could select an Administrator password upon first installa ...Show All

• Visual Studio Running Assembly-based tests with build server.

  Sorry if this is a repeat - I couldn't find anything though. We have what I thought would be a pretty common scenario - we have a couple of projects containing our automated unit tests and we want to run these as part of the build. In normal unit testing behavior, we don't want to maintain any lists of the tests, we just want to say "run the tests in this assembly". On the desktop, that's very straight foward, we just throw out a ca ...Show All
