• Visual Studio Team System Download FXCop 1.32

  Hi , I want to download FXCop 1.32. Please send me the link. I ahev the link for FXCop 1.35 but I want FXCop 1.32. Thnaks and Regards, ChatanyA Agrawal I too would like to download FxCop 1.32. Because my organization is still running Visual Studio .NET 2003 (lack of funding prevents upgrading), we are also unable to download the .NET Framework 2.0. Whenever we try upgrading to 2.0, Visual Studio starts getting some weird bugs. So I was hoping that you would link to FxCop 1.32 so that I might still be able to use your product. Thanks! ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Applying a texture transformation

  Hi - simple problem here - I've got a cube, to which I apply a texture made from the backbuffer - so far so fairly straightforward. However I want to only use a part of the Texture2D I've created - how do I apply a texture transformation to a Texture2D before mapping it over my cube I assume this is the way to change UV coords. Sorry if this is a chump level question - I'm not quite ready yet for anything that involves writing a custom shader. Cheers, Jubber Wait I just had a flashback of how I was never able to get a texture applied using a BasicEffect even though some things I read suggested it should work. I guess disregard my previous statement, sorry. Here's a document that may help though: ...Show All

• Visual C# Global instance of a class

  I have a class defined in a separate file (general.cs). Where I have 2 declare the instance of this class in order to have a global object I tried 2 declare it in Program.cs or in form1.cs, but I can't see the object in any other form ... because you also have to make them static, the fields/properties/methods of a static class must be static. you only declare private/public (the way you are thinking) when you create an instance of a class :-) ...Show All

• Visual Studio EntLib's ExceptionHandling.Logging.dll doesn't get coupied when TFS building

  Hi all, I have a solution that has a web project that uses version 2.0 of the microsoft exception handling application blocks. When I want an error logged to eventlog I call ExceptionPolicy.HandlerException(ex, "My policy"). On run-time, the application block logic in the Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.ExceptionHandling.dll (haven't looked into what happens internally, it works so I've been treating the application blockls as a black box) instantiates the object responsible for event ogging. This class is in Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.ExceptionHandling.Logging.dll. Note that in this case, the web project contains code that programmatically explicitly calls the ...ExceptionHandling.dll while the declarative ...Show All

• SQL Server NEED COMMENTS: Why SQL Server Allow so

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) LINQ to SQL Feature Request: Automatic generation of temporary Stored Procedures based on LINQ to SQL statements

  Hi,   I would like to see a feature in LINQ to SQL, where we can group a set of LINQ to SQL statements into an object, which could be converted into a code by compiler that creates a temporary stored procedure in the target database. This way we could run a single or set of LINQ to SQL statements as stored procedures and get the benefits of stored procedures like eliminating round tripping to database, pre-compiled queries, etc. At the same time we will not be dealing with permenant stored procedures.   This technique will have all the benefits of writing stored procedures in C# and being executed inside database, which is a perfect world when compared to straight LINQ to SQL queries and TSQL based stored pr ...Show All
