• SQL Server try to setup membership with ASP.NET configuration

    When I whant the use the new ASP.NET configuration tool (2005) and I want to define a provider I get the following error. You should know that on installation of VS 2005 SQL-Server Express did not install and I installed SQL-Server 2005 (shiped with VS 2005). So now it seems that VS waits for the Express edition. I changed under Tools/Options/Database Tools/Data Connections the SQL Server Instance Name to "MSSQLSERVER" but this does not help, too.   Thank you very much for any help!

• Visual Studio VSS 2005 and VS .NET 2003? (for HTTP support)

  Hi, Apologies if this has been answered, but I can't find any information on this topic. Can we use VSS 2005 (I am especially interested by HTTP support) with VS.NET 2003 I think we cannot but I would like to have a confirmation. (BTW: if it's not I think it's really stupid) Thanks. Cool.  Somehow I had got hold of the idea that the new plug-ins only worked with VS 2005. I assume I just install the VSS 2005 client on the VS 2003 system and the plug-in for VS 2003 is installed too Is the regular SourceSafe plug-in also updated so it can take advantage of the LAN Helper service Will these new plug-ins work for Visual Studio .NEt 20 ...Show All

• Visual C# Old threads!?

  Is there any reason why nobody check and response to threads' posting in depth more than 2 I posted two threads on same problem and in both cases i got a single response (not full / correct / satisfying) then posted my response and then... silence. Nobody looked, checked, responded anymore. If this is the way to post things here i can do it (Copy/Paste still working). Personally I just check the first page. I assume that anything past that are dead threads. If you dont think you have a good answer, rather than reposting your question in a new thread, just respond to your old thread with another message.

• .NET Development loading classes from single project vs. multiple assemblies

  Hey guys, Are the below two cases identical 1. Having a single project with 100+ classes. 2. Separating the project into a bunch of assemblies and dynamically loading the assemblies. Second case involves the use of a lot of reflection and attribute-based programming. I am mostly worried about speed of execution. I am planning on going with approach 2, but am worried that there may be some unknown overhead to reflection or assembly based programming that i may not know about. Any thoughts Thanks guys, Tejus No they are not identical, #1 is likely to be faster and less memory cunsuming (since there's a ...Show All
