• Visual Studio Team System How to simulate a button click in a web test

  Some of my web tests are failing to simulate certain button clicks. This happens after I fix ViewState issues in the generated code (by removing the hard coded viewstate and replacing it with Context[ "$HIDDEN1.__VIEWSTATE" ]). I need to know how to simulate the button click in a C# coded web test. Thanks. That link doesn't make sense. As you pointed out, the FindText rule, with regex grid:_ctl will find occurences of this string. The index field can be used to get the nth occurence of the string. However, in this case you do not know how many there are. Do you want to randomly click on a button In o ...Show All

• SQL Server Transferring LogonUser authentication cookie

  This is my first post request you to please help.... BackGround: The requirements for my project demanded SSRS 2005 to be configured to use custom security extension instead of its default windows authentication. I customized the FormsAuthentication sample that is installed with SQL Server 2005, to make this working. Therefore, in the present state of my SSRS, a login page is open whenever a user reaches Report Server or Report Manager url. The Report Server/Manager open only when correct credentials are entered and submitted by the user. Now I will tell you something about the project. The project is to create Reporting module for ...Show All

• .NET Development int on a 64-Bit machine

  Hi! If I declare a variable of type int in C# it will normally map to System.Int32. If I run the same application on a 64-Bit machine will it then map to System.Int64 Please note that some information in this thread is not correct. In unmanaged Visual C++ sizeof(int) == sizeof(long) == 4 on both 32- and 64-bit machines. Thanks, Eugene ...Show All

• Visual C++ Unmanaged void* to .Net System::Array

• Software Development for Windows Vista How to get an IMoniker from an already instantiated IBaseFilter

  Hi, does anybody know how to get an IMoniker from an already instantiated IBaseFilter Or, alternatively, how to get the DevicePath property of a WDM capture filter of which I "only" have the instantiation in the form of an IBaseFilter Thanks for any hints. Regards, Thomas I don't know how you might get it from an IBaseFilter, but you can use GraphEdit to view the moniker display names in the insert filter dialog. Just drill down into a filter and you will see the display name as the first line in the filter's information. If you are trying to persist a graph, I think the best you ca ...Show All

• Visual Studio VS 2005 Integration with MSBuild

  Let me ask the question and then provide some background... How much can we customize an initially VS 2005 generated .csproj msbuild project file without "breaking" the VS 2005 <-> MSBuild integration Background... Forgive me if this this overly general question has been answered elsewhere, but I didn't see anything.  I have just recently begun investigations related to migrating our existing NAnt build scripts to MSBuild for when we move to .NET 2.0.  In our current system, we ask developers to maintain the .csproj files and the nant build files.  However, only the nant build files are really important.  Our bu ...Show All
