• Visual Studio Team System Performance counters from a Linux server (web/loadtest)

  Hi, I'm running various load tests, testing web services on windows and linux servers (using axis). Adding performance counters from the windows servers works fine, but how could I collect performance data from the java web services running on Linux It would be great if I could add the Linux counters directly in the load test counter sets. That way it would be added to the Load Test Result Store (DB) directly. Is there support for SNMP How could I solve this in any other way If this is not possible, is there an API to insert "custom" performance data into the load test result store (db) without accessing SQL Server directly That way maybe I can "poll" the performance data from the Linux server some other way... ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Triggers on TreeViewItems and escaping the routing

• Visual Studio Team System MS Project 2003 Dates not retrieved from TFS

  When retrieving work items using MS Project, dates are not retrieved correctly. The dates can be viewed using Excel or Team Explorer. Any ideas Smitha, One more thing: I modified other fields in the XML file to be PublishOnly="true" and uploaded the mapping file successfully to the correct project (according to the command-line tool), yet those fields in Project continue to Refresh. Looks like the mapping xml file is not read properly by the system. Any pointers Also, is there logic built in to MS Project to override any hard date values with automatic calculations of the Start and Finish dates based on Remaining Work The only time the dates seem to change is when I modify the Remaining Work field and refresh th ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Question: 2D development for both widescreen and standard on 360

  If you want a 2D game to run on 360 for both widescreen and standard TV sets, would the easiest solution be to 'center' your game to fit a standard TV and have verticle bars on either side for people using widescreen What resolution should you develop your game in so it doesn't end up being stretched when running on a 360 Thank You. I'd say your problem is the 5'th parameter. That is usually set to the ratio between the screen width and the screen height (for PC's this is most of the time 4/3 (800/600, 1024/768)). This is why the stretching appers. ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Is XNA GSE the first console SDK for the masses?

  tried searching, couldnt find anything. but is XNA GSE for the most part, the first SDK for a game console for the masses well, besides way back in the day before NES, but I mean when it came to the N64 and on generation of consoles most consoles require that you void their warranty to mod them to play custom made games, or the $1000+ dev version from the manufacturer. I may be understanding console dev incorrectly, but I read that the Wii dev console is about $1000 or something. even tho XNA GSE isn't allowing you to make fully working xb360 games that can be distributed, it seems like one of the first available to be pushed by the manufacturer to make indie/solo games without the need to illegally mod your xb360... just the $100/ye ...Show All

• Windows Forms Getting Error "The type name 'ClientCaseInfoControl' does not exist in the type 'ClientAdjuster.ClientAdjuster'"

  I have written my first user control in Visual Studio .NET 2005. Because I am not interested in this user control being used in any other application besides the WinForm app I am writing it in, the user control is in the Windows Forms project. In design mode, the VS .NET IDE recognizes it, works with it, etc. However, when I try to compile the app, I get the error message: Error 1 The type name 'ClientCaseInfoControl' does not exist in the type 'ClientAdjuster.ClientAdjuster' D:\AMCI Apps\ClientAdjuster\ClientAdjuster\ClientAdjuster.Designer.cs (the name of my user control is ClientCaseInfoControl , and the name of the project is ClientAdjuster .

• Visual Studio Express Editions open a file in listview control

  Hello all, Part of an application that I'm working on uses a treeview/listview control. My goal is pretty simple, I think... I've created an application that parses HTML files. It allows the user to edit these parsed fields and save their changes over the existing file. I realize that I could use the filebrowser dialog, or simply enter the path of file, but I need the user to be able to select a file in the listview control and have that file load in a textbox. Again, user selects (clicks) a file in the listview. By clicking the file it automatically opens in the textbox. I have no clue as to how to accomplish this seemingly simple task. Any help would be very much appreciated! Thanks, Mike ...Show All
