• Ruurd Boeke Issues using the keydown event

  I am new to visual basic 2005 Express Edition (I learned in Visual Basic 6.0). I have been creating a tetris game for fun to learn the new modifications on the visual basic language. I have run into a problem concerning how to use the key down event to register when the user presses an arrow key. I used the help function and came up with this: Private Sub frmTetris_KeyDown( ByVal sender As Object , ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles Me .KeyDown Select Case e.KeyCode Case keys.right etc etc. End Case End Sub (I left code out) I cannot get it to respond to my keystrokes, and i cannot figure out why. At one point it did respond, but i corrected an error in my ...Show All

• Jade Skaggs Locking a Label

  Hi, I'm searching for the best way to lock a certain label. I would like to realize a code freeze with TFVC. What I mean is that at a certain point of time no one besides the administrators of TFVC can move, delete or set a certain label. On our ClearCase system this is done right at code freeze during a stabilization phase when no one should be able to add any changes to the code marked with the night build label. While no changes are submitted errors can be solved and the version can be stabilized. As soon as the version is stabile the label is free again and can be used again. I hope this draws the picture of what I'm looking for good enough. Pls let me know if not. Tom Hi Tom: Team Foundation Server by def ...Show All

• NJCoughlan Will it be possible to open a DB project created in CTP5 Refresh in CTP6?

  All in the subject. Thanks Jamie Thank you for the reply Dmitriy. -Jamie Just a follow-up question: if I have a CTP5 project linked to Sourcesafe, is there anyway to reattach a CTP6 project I've tried the method of creating a new CTP6 project with the same name and then linking it to Sourcesafe but it creates a new project. Anyone had any luck No, it will not work. As a workaround, you may want to deploy your project with CTP5 , and then Import it into a new CTP6 project. ...Show All

  I was not sent the registration key for Visual Studio Express Edition. Is it possible for one to be sent to my email address The registration key will not be sent to you.

• Paul Tew Ridiculous code coverage results?

  We're getting interesting code coverage results from unit tests. In every class that implements IList<T> and therefore must implement System.Collections.IEnumerable.GetEnumerator(), the code coverage result for GetEnumerator is absurd. These methods are 12 lines long, but code coverage says that 2400 or so lines aren't executed. The results roll up to the class level and then the namespace level, and really skew our results. I fully believe the methods are never exercised, but the coverage counter should be able to figure out how many lines there really are in the source. In addition, when coverage coloring is used in the IDE text editor, files containing GetEnumerator methods are painted randomly, as if the painter is computing a ...Show All
