• Visual Studio Team System Does VSTS support Dynamic data binding ?

  I am facing the problem: How can I bind dynamically generated Product ID to form post parameter from db with condition that this productID was previuoslly generated by company XX Thanks Casik What you'd want to do is create a view in the database that puts all the data for a virtual user on a single row. Each row in the view would then represent a virtual user. Our databinding will pick a different row automatically for each virtual user. Alternatively, you could use standard ADO.NET to read directly from your database and grab the info you need right at the start of your tests. You could do this in a coded web test or by creating a WebTestPlugin. You could add all the data you need to th ...Show All

• .NET Development .NET Framwork 3.0

  After I install .NET Framework 3.0 update from MS site, I am unable to open my McAfee security center. I can’t even uninstall it from Control Panel (nothing happens when click change/remove button). Anyone knows why TX After a series of trials and errors, it is NOT the .NET Framework 3.0 update that causes the problem, it is the Root Certificate update for IE 7 that disables the McAfee Security Center and blocks internet access.

• Visual Studio Team System source control

  does visual studio team system for database professionals incude source control if yes, is the source control at the database level meaning if someone goes into Management Studio will they "see" that a stored procedure is currently checked-out and then they cannot modify that sp. Hi, I do agree with the above strongly (see one of my previous posts "VSTS4DBP could be dangerous"), but I also feel it's also a question and policy of discipline. Assuming that no one want's to intentionally damage the DB the point would be to get VS to the status that for development work it is equally good and fast to use as SSMS. With DataDude we've taken a big step and I assume t ...Show All

• Visual Studio Invoke or BeginInvoke Error if from closed before entire report is generated

  I have an app with a 400 page report. If the user closes the report viewer form (with Close X in upper right of form) before the report has generated all 400 pages, I get an error "Invoke or BeginInvoke cannot be called on a control until the window handle has been created." You can tell how many pages have been generated by watching the upper left where it shows "Page 1 of X" where X is clicking off the pages generated in background. I'm assuming I need some error handling code but not sure what and where to put it! just To add on. i just tested this method. it does work. but dun put the time to wait to 0 Mayb 500 or -1..

• Visual Studio Is there an option to add or remove options from a menu list?

  I am using VS 2005. Recently the programmers in my group went thru a routine that resulted in integrating our computers with other offices in our network. After this was done the apps that were installed on my C drive had to be reinstalled. Aside from the difficulties with the other applications, I've noticed that in Visual Studio 2005, several options are missing from the "Build" menu option. Where before I had "Batch Build", "Build Solution" "Clean" "Publish" "Rebuild ..." and several others, now I can only see "Build" and "Publish". After searching thru the Tools/Options for a way of re-inserting the missing options and searching on the Knowledgebase ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. JIT register allocation and bounds checking

  A few questions for Shawn or one of his buddies: 1/ Does the register allocator used in the XBox JITter use all of the available scalar floating point registers If not, how many can it deal with 2/ Does the XBox VM ever skip array bounds checking, and if so under what conditions 3/ Presumably there are no bounds checks when using unsafe code and pointers 4/ Are the method inlining limitations of the CF VM mentioned here still applicable to the XBox VM - especially the one about not inlining any method with floating point arguments or return values (yikes, that would be all floating point setters and getters!)

• Visual C++ C standard applications in Visual Studio 2005

  Hello. Is it possible to develop Ansi C applications in Visual Studio .Net 2005 using standard libraries like <stdio.h>, <conio.h> etc. If yes, how Thanks'. To elaborate on an earlier post, /Tc is used to force the compiler to compile a file as C code, regardless of its extension. This is rarely used since by default files with the *.c extension are compiled as C code. More info: /Tp tells the compiler to ignore a file's extension and forces C++ compilation. ...Show All
