• Visual Studio Team System Is there a way to add in a timer ?

  Hi There I am firuing off a couple or requests and all is working nicely however I need to hadd a request and have it wait 15 seconds before it attempts to send the request. How would I accomplish the wait Thanks Gregor Hi Gregor, If i understand you correctly then we can achieve this by adding think time as 15 sec in the previous request.

You can set the think time by select the request Right Click on it Click on property modify the think time (sec ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) this cute propertyChangedCallback is fired more than needed

  Hi, here is some problem to be handled : check out the registratio of an attached property: public static readonly DependencyProperty AnimationStartSourceProperty = DependencyProperty .RegisterAttached( "AnimationStartSource" , typeof ( object ), typeof ( AnimationPanel ), new PropertyMetadata ( AnimationEnabledCallback ) ); I am tracking all the changes to this property through AnimationEnabledCallback.
