• Bernaridho re-running webtests containing viewstate

  Hi, I have recorded a webtest (logging into the portal, inputting some values and getting response and logging out). The input values I give here are the start and end date and time values. When I re-run the webtest, it works perfect, until I change the start and end date values and try to run it again. It fails if I change the input values. The request contains the form post parameters -EVENTTARGET = {{$HIDDEN1._EVENTTARGET}} _EVENTARGUMENT={{$HIDDEN1._EVENTARGUMENT}} _VIEWSTATE={{$HIDDEN1._VIEWSTATE}} and as the last parameter _EVENTVALIDATION={{$HIDDEN1._EVENTVALIDATION}} I have seen some posts suggesting to replace the hidden viewstate value with the name of the variable. I changed the viewstate, the test throws ...Show All

• Mazeno Adding Check In comments to Work Item history

  I would like our work items to automatically get a copy of the check in notes appended at each check in. Whether this is in the "History" tab or on another tab like, "Check In Notes" is immaterial. It just makes sense that this information would filter up to the PM without having to go through each Changeset in the link. Alternatively, you could just use the Comments piece of the changeset link to hold the check in notes. Right now they currently say "Source control changeset 3242" which is a bit obvious from the linktype (Changeset) and description (Changeset 3242).... Can I change the behavior in some way or would this require a new release of TFS Thanks, but the main problem with using a ch ...Show All

  Hi, How can I get Outlook mail body text into a string using active window code in VB2005 express.

I'm looking into Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook, am I on the right track Any help would be appreciated. Kim kimhoskin, It depends on your project. If you are developing with the Office, the Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook will be fine. Just pay more attention there are several methods of this namespace, such as Application, Explorer, Inspector, MAPIFolder, MailItem. However, when you develop your project with System namespace, the track will be System.Web.Mail in .NET 1.1 and System.Net n ...Show All

• Ferener Setup and Deployment

  I have a program that I wrote using Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition, and I need to create self-extracting installer for. MSDN says to use the Setup and Deployment Template, but it is missing from the File-> Add-> New Project area where the rest of the templates are. I have been unable to download a template from Microsoft or anywhere else for that matter, what are my options Okay, Deployment templates aren't available for Visual Studio Express Editon, so you must use a program to do that. HTH The express system does have the ability to deploy programs, you need to use the clickonce methods. If you want to make a seperate msi installer you will have to purchase a third party product or ...Show All

• SPWilkinson can we conduct an Code analysis on a webapplication from CLI

  Hi, Can we perform an code analysis on a web application/project from command line interface using the FXcop. Please suggest me if I can do it or not, are there any other ways I can do other than using the GUI. regards Kishore What do you mean by Web Application/Project If you mean the web site project that ships out of the box with Visual Studio 2005, then you need to first compile the web site using the aspnet_compiler.exe to generate a assembly. You can then pass this assembly to FxCopCmd simply by doing the following (replacing [assembly] with the assembly name): fxcopcmd /f: [assembly] / out :Report.xml Regards David Thank you David, I meant the same Website proj ...Show All

• DINESH CHAUDHARI MoveFileWithProgress

  I dont know where to put it else but ive got a problem with MoveFileWithProgress using the winapi. I'd like to move a folder from a cdrom to my root folder(c). Actually it gives me the error code 5(Access Denied). If I move the folder from my root drive c to another folder on the same volume it works without any problems. Even if I try to move it from another volume to my c drive or vice versa it doesnt work. well actually i cant even copy to other volumes (including harddrivers and thumb drives) No can do... your cd rom is read only and so you can only copy the data, not move it without getting into erasing the disk which gets tricky. ...Show All

• japt Questions

  hello, can anyone suggest some gamming video tutorials I'm am currently relearning c++ since I can't find c# tutorials. I want to learn OpenGL or Directx. OpenGL would be my first choice so I can program on all consoles. Also, When I type the code I'm relearning in C++ express edition 2005 it says the code is out of date and does not work. I think this is because I am probably not typing managed C++. If so, can you give me some web tutorials that could teach me MANAGED C++ Heres a example of the C++ I'm writing: #include <iostream> main() { std::cout << "Hello World\n"; } Thanks a lot for helping me. http://www.gamedev.net/ http://nehe.gam ...Show All

• meho Workspaces opt-in rather than opt-out

  Hi Guys, we have a number of different solutions inside a single TFS Project. We have create a number of team builds designed to build single solutions. Initially we had a performance problem building a solution as the entire source code repository was being retrieved before doing a build. To correct this we have cloaked unnecessary source paths using the workspace.xml (opt-out). While this works the problem going forward is that new solutions are automatically included which means that all of the team builds need to be updated to exclude the new solutions. Is there a way to exclude all solutions and only opt-in Wildcards are definitely forbidden, is there any other way to achieve this Another possible option I have explored is to map to ...Show All

• jschroeder Completely Removing Team Builds from Process Template

  I am creating a new Process Template for our Software Support Team. They have no need at all for Team Builds or Source Control. They don't touch the code or build it. I removed the Plugin, group and tasks from the ProcessTemplate.xml but the Team Builds folder still shows up in the Team explorer when I create a new project based on this template. Is there anyway of getting rid of it completely I have the same question with the Version Control node. But at least when you right click on the Version Control node nothing shows up. Unfortunately, no. ok thanks You can choose not to create a source control branch while creating a team project. This will exclude both the team build and the ...Show All
