• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Enum?

• Visual Studio foreach on CodeElement for CodeClass returns physical file, need help

  I'm using VS 2003 I'm doing a loop through the projectitems then a loop through each items codeelements and that is returning only namespaces.  I do get the classes from the projectitems thereselves but they are never Class, only physical files.  The class is marked as a phsical file and is a physical file (i.e. Namespace AccountEntity has a class named Account.  I get the Account.cs as the projectitem with the kind as a vsProjectItemPhysicalFile).  the CodeElements are always namespaces.

• Visual Studio IVsProject3->OpenItem is called for each document having a breakpoint before the debugging starts

  Hi, I have implemented my own debug engine, we are creating a virtual project to enable debugging. All my docs are non file based docs. My problem is that when I start a debugging session I see that OpenItem in IVsProject3 is called for each document that has a breakpoint in it. Iam not sure why it is happening but I observed the same behavior with the MY C sample provided with the sdk. The call comes from the Vsdebug.dll, Is there any way by which I can stop these calls coming as these calls are unnecessarily trying to open documents that may or may not be required, I would still like my breakpoints to be available as otherwise I wou ...Show All

• .NET Development Delete a file from an FTP server

  I have the code to download and upload a file to and from a FTP server fine. What I am not sure of is how to delete a file from an FTP server. I figured I could try to download a file, and if it downloads successfully, then to delete it because the download method would have all of the information needed of what the filename is and where it is located etc... below is the code for my download method in case it matters: public void Download( string downloadUrl, string user, string pswd, string downloadLocation, Boolean multfiles) { if (multfiles == false ) { //write to email transfer number transfer++; errors = err ...Show All

• .NET Development Need an Answer!

  I've looked everywhere on msdn and can't get an answer to the most basic question about jscript. Here is the question: Which development environment in the .net framework allows you to code and debug in jscript! It's NOT Web Developer 2005 -- that one only let's you use VB and C#. Is it ASP.Net There are some very vague references to this, but I can't tell exactly what the environment is. There is much talk about jscript in the MS .NET framework, but let's get very specific--which development environment (code and debug) let's you use jscript. And if, once in that environment, there is some obscure trick to not having it chock every ti ...Show All

• Visual C# Spacing formatting and return statement

  The new spacing options in VS2005 are really cool (Tools/Options/Text Editor/C#/Formatting/Spacing). You can control almost all formatting aspects. "Almost" because I did not find a way to control the spacing after "return". I like to write code like: return(result); instead of: return result; The auto-formatting gives me: return (result); Yes, I can live with that, but you know... old habits, ... Does somebody know if it is possible somewhere to control this kind of spacing Regards Sebastien Some add ins may allow it. OR you could write a macro that does a f ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Disable FSAA for some primitives each frame? (disable it temporarily)

  If I set my device to use 4x FSAA for example, can I temporarily disable it when rendering primitves or somehow make primitives that isn't affected by the FSAA I have a graphical user interface that render text and quads with point filtering, that way making it "pixel perfect". Much like blitting a sprite but I'm using triangles instead. However this method breaks miserably when I add antialiasing, since the pixel precision is lost and it looks horrible. I would like to render the GUI and text triangles without FSAA and terrain / player / whatever else with FSAA enabled... I'm using MDX if that matters. Any help / ideas are appreci ...Show All
