• Visual Studio Team System Is there a Release Date for FxCop 1.35?

  I'd like to use the new features but I'm not going to use another beta. When is the release date planned Cheers, Chris Why aren't you going to use the beta Firstly, it's very stable - we've had no problems at all with it. Secondly, seeing as you're using (and hopefully benifitting from using) FxCop, it would be considered good form to try the beta. ...Show All

• Visual Basic Wildcard Replace using the VB.NET Replace function

  I was hoping that one of the new features of .NET 2005 would include the ability to do wildcard replacing using the Replace() function. Is it possible or do i need to find a function or module Something like Replace(str1,"Test*","Test") is what im after. Is there something out there for it Cheers How about regular expressions str1 = system.text.regularexpressions.regex.replace(str1,"Test.*", "Test") Very powerful and therefore complex, check out: http://www.regular-expressions.info/ John. ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Adding Items to a ListView

  Hi, I'm trying to add items to a list view like this: frmList.lstShop.Items.Add(txtProduct.Text) This method gives me an error "Value of type 'Strings' cannot be converted 'System.Windows.Forms.ListViewItem'".

• SQL Server Differences between MSDE and SSE2005

  Good Afternoon, Everyone. I know SSE2005 is built on Sql Server 2005 and MSDE was built on Sql Server 2000 so let's not start a thread discussing that. My question is more about the concurrency governor found in MSDE. I've heard people talking about the concurrency governor in MSDE being removed in SSE2005. Instead, performance is limited by the server configuration; one CPU, 1 GB RAM, and a maximum 4GB database. Can anyone confirm this What happens if the server has 2GB of RAM and/or dual processors Will SSE only utilize 1 GB and/or one of the processors Thanks for the help, Scott You assumptio ...Show All

• Visual Basic DrawRectangle method creates oversize rectangle

  Why does the DrawRectangle method generate rectangles that are 1 pixel too big I'm unsure if this is a bug (which it certainly looks like) but if you draw a rectangle and use the FillRectangle method, it fills correctly, but when you draw it using the DrawRectangle method, it's one pixel out. I know the obvious solution is to reduce the size of the rectangle by 1, but it's most annoying, especially if you use the Rectangle.Inflate method to draw a border around a filled rectangle in a minimal code approach, it doesn't draw correctly. For Example: Private Sub Form1_Paint( ByVal sender As Object , ByVal e As System.Windows ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Recorded WebTest works, generated code then fails

  I have recorded a webtest and bound it to some sample data in a SQLExpress MDF file stored in the project. When I run this test it works perfectly. The problem then occurs when I click the Generate Code button and then try to run the code version of the exact same test. I get the following error "Could not run web test 'ProfileControlTestCoded2' on agent 'VPCR851260C': Could not create instance of class 'ProfileControlTestCoded2' :Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.

• Visual Studio Team System Namespace Administrators ?

  I find the term "Namespace Administrators" confusing.  What is meant by "Namespace" here   Isn't this really "Repository Administrators"   You can call the same web service methods that gssutil.exe uses.  The VSTS extenisibility kit may contain some useful info http://www.vsipdev.com/downloads/ You can also look at the web service soap traffic between gssutil.exe and the server to see what's involved. If you decide to do it, let us know how it goes. Buck ...Show All
