• Visual Studio Team System Transitioning WorkItems from one TeamServer project to another

  I had an idea this morning and I would like comments to see if it is possible. I want to split issues between the development and software support teams. So basically I thought I would set up a server for Software Support to handling Questions, Suggestions and Bugs from customers. Once they get triaged and Software Support determines that it is a valid WorkItem I would like to automatically create a new WorkItem in a Dev project. One way this could be done is as a process that runs at scheduled intervals which checks a field in the Software Support WorkItem to see if its valid and then create WorkItems in the Dev Project. Does anyone have any other ideas for a better implementation or comments I haven't tried it, however ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Test List group of tests are not executing in the correct order

  I have created 1 manual test called "GER-Setup W2KSP4" I have created 1 ordered test called "W2K SP4 TYPE B+ DD" I then created a test list which contains both this manual and ordered test. I want "GER-Setup W2KSP4" to run first...however when I run this test list it starts with the first test. Any ideas NOTE: that the manual test "GER-Setup W2KSP4" is listed first in my test list. Is there a way to set a priority to tests within a test list Thanks Newbie Hi Mary, I am not sure if you have already looked at this resource.

• Windows Forms How to bind a DataGridViewComboBoxColumn?

  Hi! I'm trying to add a combobox in my datagridview, but i can't show any value. I have two DataTables, A and B. I want that the DataSource of my DataGridView be A, and the DataSource of the DataGridViewComboBoxColumn be B, so i can select any value from B in any value in A.

• Visual Studio Team System Difference between stakeholders and constituents?

  Stakeholders and constituents sound like the same group of people. What's the difference between them Are they interchangeable For example, an end user is a stakeholder to a project, can I say he is also a constituent for that project Thanks in advance. Hopefully what is a "constituent" was sufficiently covered in the thread: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=936639&SiteID=1 A "stakeholder", as defined on page 60 of the MSF Essentials book , is "anyone with a vested interest in the effort...". Therefore, comparing the two: a constituent is someone (or something) being advocated (often indirect influence over project requirements) whereas ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Better to rotate a sprite or animate it?

  Is it better to create an image and then rotate it to achieve an animation (for movement as example), a ball for example, or better to have the image contain all frames that are needed and just select the area of the image that is needed in the frame (again, for movement as an example). I hope that made sense Basically, I want to have a ball roll across my screen, and I am just wondering which technique provides the best options. Thanks for any opinions. Well the answer is, it depends You may get a better image quality if you render each frame and display the approriate frame, but you will probably get smoother movement out of having a single image and rotating it, since you would have to have a lot ...Show All

• Visual Basic Datagrid

  How can I produce a total for values in a datagrid and them display them in a label Where: dgv is the name of your DataGridView contol. "columnName" is the name of the column the total of which you are calculating. lblTotal is the name of the Label control wherein you wish to display the calculated sum. Dim total As Integer Dim c As Integer = dgv.Columns("columnName").Index For r As Integer = 0 To dgv.Rows.Count - 1 total += DirectCast(dgv(c, r).Value, Integer) Next lblTotal.Text = total.ToString() You could of course simply initialize c to the column index yourself but you'd have to remember it if you changed the order of columns later. If you were going to go this route ...Show All

• Visual Studio Enumerating the IVsTextViews

  I'm trying to listen to text changes in all IVsTextViews. I've figured out how to listen for register/unregister events, but if my addin is loaded after VS starts, there may be IVsTextViews that are already registered, and I never get an event for them. I figure enumerating the existing views with IVsTextManager.EnumViews should do the trick, but for some reason I can't seem to get it to work. There are no docs, but the IDL file has the following function definition in IVsTextManager: // Enumerate views. Pass NULL for pBuffer to get all views. HRESULT EnumViews ([in] IVsTextBuffer *pBuffer, [out] IVsEnumTextViews **ppEnum); When I try the following: ServiceProvider sp = new ServiceProvider ((Microsoft.VisualStudio.OLE.Interop.IServiceProvi ...Show All

  Hi, I have seen several posts on the net on the following issue of xml serialization of custom collection classes deriving from CollectionBase.
