• Visual Studio Team System How to test java scripts?

  Our web pages are using java scripts.how can i test them If some customization I have to do pls provide the scripy for that. Thanks Golu The web tests in VSTS do not test client side java script. They test at the http layer. So basically, they simulate the requests which are sent to the server but do not simulate the java script code on the browser. If your java script is sending requests to the server that the web test recorder does not record properly, then you will need to insert those requests into the web test after recording is complete.

• Visual C++ How do I get an Environment Variable?

    I have 35 years of experience. I have mostly avoided the C world. when I've had to write in it, I've done OK in VS6. VS2005 C++ is so cantankerous. I'm writing a program that must run standalone  so it's very lean and doesn't rely on high level code. I am in need of a routine that returns the value of the %windir% environment variable in string format. My project is set for a unicode build. Thank you Hi Renee, Umm, if we're talking about C#, maybe it is possible to use: System.Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("windir") Which'll return a string with the value of the env variable in t ...Show All

• Smart Device Development What is App.Config and how can I use it?

  I'm having a problem with .NET CF1.1 SP3. When connecting to a JBOSS web app via webservice, I get a webexception. This appears to be caused by SP3 (this wasn't present when I was running bog standard 1.1). Apparently... through research it looks as though the following is occurring: Q: Why do I receive a strange error message when debugging my Web Services client which talks to an Apache web server A: The problem here is that when using the debugger to connect to a web server then a custom HTTP header named VsDebuggerCausalityData is emitted into the call.

• Windows Forms Datagridview Columns Order

  Does anyone know how to iterate through a rows cells in the order they appear in the bound datagridview For example, when I start the program I have ColumnA as the first column, I then move that column out of the first position, to 2nd position or 10th position doesnt matter where, I than  do a simple check like so  "me.text = datagridview.columns(0).Name"  and even tho it is no longer in the first position, ColumnA is still considered first in the collection, therefore the result of the simple check remains ColumnA.
