• .NET Development c++/cli for anycpu

  I created a test program using c++/cli under safe mode (i.e., entirely managed code) with beta 2 (8.0.50110.28) using the flags cl /clr safe /Ox. The compiler is generating msil code, but it seems that it only runs in 32-bit mode - can't find a way to get an "anycpu" executable like C# allows. Is there a magic chant that I don't know about Or is this not available under C++/CLI karel I'm going to close this thread.  It seems to work fine on the machines that I have.  If the user still has a problem, feel free to email me. Thanks, Kang Su Gatlin Visual C++ Program Manager ...Show All

• Windows Forms DataGridView Columns Changes Lost

  I am having a problem with changes that I make to the DataGridView columns using the Designer being lost. The DataGridView is bound to a binding source object and is not changed and no other changes are made to the data grid. The designer automatically regenerates the code sometime during a recompile and does not keep the changes that were previously made. I have not been able to pinpoint the exact sequence of events to consistently reproduce the problem. This problem is preventing me from relying on the Designer to setup my columns. Has anyone experienced this behavior Thanks in advance Jorge ...Show All

  does anyone have a link or suggestions on how to best optimize a windows XP professional machine for load testing with VSTE Thanks! John If the machine has more than one processor (or 'core'), it can help a lot to enable the server GC.

• Visual Studio Team System Checkout behavior on non-mergeable file types

  I understand that in general TFVC encourages concurrent development by defaulting a checkout to just marking the local version as editable.  However, IMO for non-mergeable files, TFVC should always do a get latest when checking out this type of file.  Since the file is not mergeable, allowing devs to checkout anything but the latest version is setting them up or a *bad* experience. It would also be very nice to have a command line switch on TF CHECKOUT to have it grab the latest first. We're received a lot of feedback on the behavior of not getting files on checkout.  W ...Show All
