• Visual C++ Getting bug report support from Microsoft

  I have recently reported a private bug to Microsoft, a "C++ CodeDOM parser error: Internal Error", which blocks my efforts to continue component development for one of my components in C++/CLI. The bug was reported a week ago but has evidently not been reviewed by Microsoft. The bug is detailed at http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=671820&SiteID=1 on this site. Is there a way to contact Microsoft directly so that I can have this bug looked at and so that I can get a workaround or fix which enables me to successfully complete and market my component Also, does anyone know whether file attachments added to public bug reports are downloadable by all users or only by Microsoft I made my bug report private beca ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Load test- username and password

  Hi there, Do I need to create usernames and passwords for each virtual user to be used for executing Load tests That depends completely on the site you're testing. If you want to stress test something like a new user registration process and your db won't allow duplicates, then yes you would have to create usernames and passwords for each virtual user/test iteration. If you don't want to pregenerate all that data, you could use a WebTestPlugin or coded web test and write some code that would auto generate unique user data. It really depends on whether your site is going to require unique data for every test iteration. Josh ...Show All

• SQL Server Change Edition of existing isntance?

  I have a named instance of SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition. I want to install VS Team System Foundation Server on the same box, but this needs a default instance of Standard or Enterprise edition. I installed the Standard version alongside the existing Developer instance but now I can't start SSIS and without it VSTS Foundation Server won't install. I have tried to uninstall SSIS and reisntall it from both the Standard Edition and Developer edition media, but it makes no difference, the service still won't start. Could the SSIS failure be due to having different editions on the same box If so, is it possible to change the edition of the Developer instance to Standard (or to change them both to Enterprise edition) without having to ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. How to deploy on the Xbox at many developpers

  Hello, I'm a student and I'm developping on XNA with my teamates. We have a Xbox 360 and develop on our personnal laptop. When we have tested our project on the Xbox, we can't deploy from each laptops to the Xbox. Does a solution to deploy from several computer exist Thank you for your help. O.C Sharing the key doesn't actually work, because the Xbox and PC negotiate an internal more secure key the first time they connect to each other. That is stored on the PC that did the negotiation, so other PCs will be unable to connect once this has happened. To share an Xbox between multiple PCs, you will have to re-create a new key each time you want to switch from one PC to another. ...Show All

  Hi. I am developing for a system that receives an input from an external modem. The Transaction is split into 2 sections, Section 1 = grants the transaction ID, Section 2 = deliver the transaction Data.
