• Visual Studio Team System How to count the diff like line added, line deleted and line modified in TFS.

  In my project , I need to count the line added, deleted and modified between the different Version. I know the Tf.exe and the code churn report, but the TF.exe have no summary, and the code churn count the changement every check in. for example, from version A to version B, we check in two times,the first add 5 line and the 2rd delete 2 line which is in the 5 line add by first time. so the code churn reports line added: 5 and line deleted: 2, but I need the difference between the A and B is Add 3 line . Do you have any idea of this, if you HAVE, please let me know. Your best bet will be to find a 3rd-party diff tool that has this feature.  For example, Araxis Merge can generate reports like this: h ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Multi-threading in the XNA game architecture

  Hi According to previous posts, Update() and Draw() in the game class are called separately. Does this imply that there are 2 threads, calling Update and Draw If so, does this mean that data accessed by both functions have to be made thread safe Thanks JZ Just clarifying, when i said called separately, I meant that they are called at different times. For example, the update is called on a time schedule based on TargetElapsedTime or 60fps if none is specified. However, Draw is called every x number of steps, if vsync is enabled, or however fast it can draw. So, how can the XNA library be doing the 2 things with such a precise time management if there's no threads Thanks ...Show All

The only tool that has a single file compilation option is by callingthe compiler driver itself, cl.exe. Thanks, Ayman Shoukry VC++ Team ...Show All
