• Visual Studio Team System Check Constraints ignored by the data generator

  I am using VSDBPro to generate test data, my table has a check constraint defined in a column such as ( [Field1] = 'A' OR [Field1] = 'C' ), but it was ignored by the data generator and tried to populate some random values and terminated the entire process...

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) The socket connection was aborted.

  Hi. I've created simple wcf service and client. They use netTcpBinding. When connecting to service, client catches exception with message: The socket connection was aborted. This could be caused by an error processing your message or a receive timeout being exceeded by the remote host, or an underlying network resource issue. Local socket timeout was '01:09:59.9687494'. Timeout in above message is client sendTimeout after I increased it to 01:10:00. Service processing takes only 2seconds but as soon as service finish processing client catches that exception. I've tried to increase service receiveTimeout but that did not help either. I've even stepped in service code after OperationContract was called from client code and the ...Show All
