• .NET Development TabControl differences to CF?

  I started a thread in the compact framework forum, but am not getting feedback.  I thought I'd post a link here hoping for some cross over thoughts. http://forums.microsoft.com/msdn/ShowPost.aspx PostID=55315 The idea is that i'm seeing the TabControl working differently from full .Net framework to the compact frameworks, and I'm hoping for some insight.  This looks like a runtime bug in the compact framework, but I hope it's simply developer error. Thank you for any help. Mike, you've got the best place for your question in the CF forum. Ping me if you don't get a response this week and we can ch ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System FxCop not reporting naming errors

  I am trying FxCop for the first time on a test project. I don’t think it is seeing naming errors. I have intentionally put in violations but the tool is not flagging them. For instance: private void junk (int ThiIsNotCAmelCase ) { int a = ThiIsNotCAmelCase; } int thisisalongvar = 1; are not flagged. What am I doing wrong jcp Jcp, For a lot of rules, such as the naming rules, FxCop will only analyze code that is public to the consumer of your assembly. This means that code (such as your method above) that is private or int ...Show All

• SQL Server Raise an error in the dataflow

  HI, I have a lookup that find a specific row. If that row does not exist, I need to create a new one. If it exists, I need to raise an error and trap it with the "on_error" event of the dataflow in order to log it. Is there a way to raise an error and specify the error message from the dataflow I was thinking using the conditional split and verify if the value returned from the lookup (by set the error config to ignore the error) is not or not. But how can I raise an error when the value is not null Thank you, Ccote You'll need a script component in order to do this. The syntax is: Com ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Ignoring certain DependentRequests return codes..

  Hi all, I am having an issue parsing dependent links that I think has been mostly covered by a few other posts but a solution was not suggested at that point. In post 62544: How to Ignore Web Test Errors there was a suggestion to turn off ParseLinks. This seems a little extreme in my case as I have a request that pulls in about 30 links. One of these links is to an ad server which is called with a URL and no page at the end.. Because there is no html or the like it tries to parse the directory and receives a "403 Forbidden". I would like to just ignore this link in the list of dependent links. I have generated code for the tests but am un ...Show All
