• Visual Studio Team System Project deletion and Branches

  Hi all, Here is the background of my problem: I have a main Project in TFS where all developpers are working on I created several project, as branches of our main project. After a while, I deleted couple if these test branches (using TFSProjectDelete command). The problem is that if you look at the history of files on the main project, , you can see all branches that have been performed (even the ones that are not existing anymore). I would really need to get these branches to disapear (as they interfere with real branches & confuse people)... Thanks in advance, Steeve. The only wa ...Show All

• Visual Basic Graphics question

  Hi there, I'm not sure where is the best place to post, but here goes anyway... I'm planning to make a graphics program in Visual Basic. Although I used Visual Basic a long time ago, and have somewhat of a knowledge of programming, I am by no means expert (you might say barely past beginner) and have been more of an enthusiast in the past (my real job is design and animation). Recently, I downloaded VB Express and decided to take the plunge again. Before I start cramming all the information that is out there into this tiny brain of mine, I basically have a few questions before I start re-inventing the wheel: 1. Is there a way (s ...Show All

• Visual Basic Assignments within expressions

  Will VB ever allow for assignments within expressions   I've boggled over translating simplistic C# code into VB.NET code many hours since VB doesn't allow this.  Take the following two code pieces for example: while (--n >= 0) {     // do some code }   And while (n-- >= 0) {     // do some code }   This may seem simple to translate at first, but only if the variable n is used inside the loop.  If it is referenced outside the loop, it can be different values, based on whether the '--' is prefix or postfix. This is a simple example, but imagine more complex express ...Show All

• Visual C# move to c#

  Hi, I have been asked to convince the IT director that we should really be moving to c# instead of vb.net Any tips on this particular topic please Thanks Hi! Wrong idea from the start - C# & VB.NET is the same things. Just different syntax (personally I like C# much more). So technically they are the same. Also .NET is environment where C# & VB & C++ & J# programmers can work together, just in separate assemblies. For me, C# is preferrable. Most people in VB or newbies in C# do not know what is behind designers or copy/paste programming, but they believe they can do great stuff. Most professi ...Show All

• Visual C# C# Equivalent To VB 'do events'?

  Is there a C# statement which is equivalent to the VB 'do events' statement   I have a window which does a while loop (while webbrowser.isbusy) and the window will not refresh during this loop.  Is there a way to force or enable the queued-up Windows messsages to fire during this loop TIA, rca Hi, The best approach to that is by creating a seperate thread.

My main issue is getting this to work on Windows2000 Server (Sp4). thanks Arran   ...Show All

• Visual Studio How to add or remove template files in the target (exp) environnement?

  Sorry if this has been answered already, but I have not found any answer to this question. When I run a successfully built model & designer project (like I was a customer of my DSL), I have two files <myLanguage>Report.ReportTemplate and <myLanguage>ReportVB.ReportTemplate. Where do these files come from How can I suppress them how can I create others I don't mean the content of these files (I have seen some docs on T4, and the walkthroughs talk about it as well), just the files itself. The solution is probably obvious but I can't find it Edward has it spot on. We'll support exactly this problem in the d ...Show All

• .NET Development Problem with XHTML entities

  I want to load an XHTML document into an XmlDocument named doc. The data comes from a stream named stream. doc.Load(stream) throws an XmlException: Reference to undeclared entity 'nbsp'. I figured out why. The document uses common html named entities but it has no DTD header. The problem is described here too: http://blogs.pingpoet.com/overflow/archive/2005/07/20/6607.aspx . At the time of writing this URl doesn't work, in short the guy's solution is: he hacked a DTD declaration into an XmlParsingContext, and it worked for him. I also tried to manually place a valid DOCTYPE header into the document itself, and it worked too. The loader fo ...Show All
