• Visual Studio Team System BuildStatusChangeEvent doesn't work.

  After many tries with BisSubscribe I managed to get BuildCompletionEvent working. BuildStatusChangeEvent still doesn't wotk for me. There is no information about it in tbl_notifications table in TfsIntegration database so I assume it isn't fired. BTW, what is the connection between BuildCompletionEvent name and that from tbl_event_type (which includes spaces) And one more thing.

• Visual Studio Team System Team Foudation Server Scheduled Backup + Disaster Recovery Scenarios

  Hi, We have Team Foundation Server installed in our premises. We arranged with all the people working on TFS to make sure that their connection to TFS is closed before they leave work, so that to enable our SQL Server Full Backup Schedule to work correctly at around 03:00 AM. Our questions are: 1. Do we have to back up the Reporting Services Encryption Key every night as well Or we do that only once in a life time 2. Is there anything else to backing up TFS - in order to gurantee successfull recovery in the case of a hardware crash - other than backing up TFS databases and RPT Service Enc. Key 3. Can we still reuse the files that exist in users' worksapces in the case of a TFS crash I mean after we recover/restore TFS , ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions error connecting to database

  I am using VC# Express and trying to connect to a SQL 2000 database. The error message when I compile the application is as follows: An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) Is there anyway to connect to SQL 2000 with VC# Express or is this a waste of my time. using System; using System.Data; //ADO.NET namespace using System.Data.SqlClient; //Use SQL Server data provider namespace using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Text; namespace Da ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Generic WCF Service Invoker

  Could you please advice if there is any Generic WCF Service Invoker A component that I can use to invoke a WCF service by simply providing Service URL, OperationName, and ParametersCollection. BUT I still want to be able to control and custimize the binding/invocation. My scenario is that I have a bunch of functionally equivalent services that I want to dynamically bind to, at design time I know the service interface but I only know the concerete binding/service provider to use at runtime. Also some service providers sometimes do not comply 100% with the agreed-upon interface so I need to do some in-out transformations before invoking and after receiving the response. Is there any exisiting samples that can guide me on how to do the above ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Missing odbc32.lib

  I have set up VSC++ Express Edition. It works well with exercises from VC++ Programming but when I try debugging a project from another book I get the file not found message on odbc32.lib  I have just spent hours searching the web for a download but The links go up in a puff of smoke. I have SDK and have included and libbed the new folders but the file isnt in those folders either.

It will take a while though as I am using dialup. I hadn't realised that there was a difference between SDK and PSDK. but apparently there ...Show All

  How doi get started in game design What software do i need Please note that game programming is one of the highest steps in the big ole' programming ladder. commercial games today need large group of programmers/designers/artists that work for months and years to finish a single game.

• Visual Studio Team System Can't access TFS through proxy server

  I've been having major problems connecting to TFS through a proxy server. I've enabled the ISAPI filter and configured the site for SSL, and that all works great - until I try to connect from behind a proxy. The error I get in DevStudio is: TF31001: Team Foundation cannot retrieve the list of team projects from Team Foundation Server on domain.net. The Team Foundation Server returned the following error: The remote server returned an error: (407) Proxy Authentication Required..

I am able to connect with no problems at all, so I know the connection isn't being blocked. T ...Show All
