• Eduardo D How to add custom counters to default graph in load test

  Hi, I've a set of counters which I monitor when load tested and this counter set does not change. Is there any way to modify .trx file to show custom counters plotted by default I now see that only UserLoad, Requests/sec and AverageResponseTime are being plotted. Please correct me if I'm wrong.I'm assuming that the default counters to plot has been specified somewhere in the .trx file. I had a glance at the trx file but couldn't find the position to add my counter set. Any idea where can I specify the counters so that they are plotted by default when I open the .trx file Thanks in advance. You should not add them to the .trx. The .trx has the state for a specific run. If you want to add specific counters that are graphe ...Show All

• icewill Changing user while Connecting to Team Foundation Server using Visual Studio 2005

  Hi, I connected to Team Foundation Server usin Visual Studio 2005, with a user name and password. Now whenever I connect to Team Foundation Server, the Studio users that user name and password.

• Carl Daniel Should Tasks map to other Work Items or be their own?

  I have re-defined the Bug workitem to add a number of states and transitions (e.g. Ready for Testing, Test Verified, Ready For QA, etc), and added a work item "ChangeRequest" with the same states and transitions. My question is, should I do the same thing for the Tasks work item (since most of our Tasks are software development tasks) or should I have a Bug or ChangeRequest item defined for each task I can see that some tasks don't need to go through the entire set of states that a sw development item needs, but having one or more ChangeRequest items for each Task item seems to be redundant.

• GG71 Moving On

  Moving on from my last post, where I wanted to draw an ellipse in Picturebox1. I now want to copy the part of the image that is inside the ellipse and move it to picturebox2. I've been looking at Transform and Translate examples but not sure how to adapt them to what I'm after. Most of them just show you how to draw a rectangle and move it 100 pixels to the left. Some pointers please would be helpful.   First of all you should be doing all of the drawing on a bitmap and copying the bitmap into the picturebox. I haven't been following this, but I'm sure it's been shared with you a picture is one of the worse things to draw on, however there's nothing wrong with using a bitmap as a drawing surface ...Show All

• JohnSLG Starting a timer

  I'm trying to start a timer using the timer icon in the toolbox. Once the timer is applied to the form, i manually change its behaviour in the context(enabled = true,Intervall = whatever) and the code is automatically generated. How and where do i start the timer and is there a possibility to trace it while debugging. When i try to enter the timers name like that in main() clock.start(); the compiler says: 1>.\timer tick behavior.cpp(16) : error C2065: 'clock' : undeclared identifier 1>.\timer tick behavior.cpp(16) : error C2228: left of '.Start' must have class/struct/union So what is to do to start the timer correctly Thanks very much, i had no idea the time ...Show All

• stevejebson Bug with WebBrowser control and focus. Any workarounds?

  No matter how hard I try, I can't get the WebBrowser control to truely gain focus. Even after using WebBrowser1.Focus () in my program, when I run my program the WebBrowser control doesn't really get focus until I click on it with the mouse. How do I know this Well, the arrow keys don't work to scroll the web page, nor do PageUp or PageDown, until I click on the WebBrowser control with the mouse. Same goes for moving through the links with the TAB key. Since SP1 for Visual Basic 2005 didn't change things, is there a way I can work around this problem, short of clicking on the control with the mouse Thanks nobugz. I tried your code, but unless I'm pasting it in the wrong place (and I've tried a few pla ...Show All

• NReddy Cannot connect to SQL Server Express for the life of me

  I am pulling my hair out trying to connect to a SQL Server 2005 Express database in Visual C# Express 2005. It seems like it should all be a simple process, but it's amazing to me how frustrating this is. I have a SQL Server 2005 database on my machine, I'm going to Data > Add New Data Source in C# Express, I'm navigating to the Data folder in the SQL Server program files dir and trying to connect to the .mdf file, but I keep getting stuck trying to create the connection. For some reason my instance is MSSQLSERVER rather than SQLEXPRESS, but I already changed my config to reflect that. I've tried doing User Instance on/off, tried windows auth vs sql server auth, tried turning on named pipes and TCP access (with permissions given to 127. ...Show All

• robinjam Can you install the Visual Studio SP1 WITHOUT installing TFS SP1?

  Is it possible to install the Visual Studio SP1 onto the client machines without installing the Team Foundation Server SP1 Because the VS SP1 install takes a long time, we'd like to upgrade the client machines piecemeal when the devs have time. Is it safe to do that, or must we upgrade the server and clients all at the same time You can use Visual Studio SP1 without installing the Team Foundation Server SP1. You can also install the Team Foundation Server SP1 and pre-sp1 vs2005 clients will still be able to connect to the server so you do not have to wait until all your clients have been updated to update the server. Many thanks! ...Show All

• sandsdad Share

  Is there share capabilities in VSTS source control as in VSS If not, how does one deal with files shared between modules Preface: I don't know too much about the inner workings of web projects. Based on quick testing, it doesn't look like the VS2005-style "web site" projects allow you to 'add as link' when adding an external file. I think you'll have to use Web Application Projects for that to work. You could also use TFSLinks, at the cost of some extra space (on the clients). Eric, see if this helps: Managing Dependencies No, TFS doesn’t have sharing. The “correct” way to do things in the TFS world depends on what you were u ...Show All
