If VisualStudio 2010 based on WPF, why I cannot open it with reflector?
In other words, devenv.exe seems to be native assembly, so where is the WPF UI code?
Hi!
How can I programmatically refresh VisualStudio Solution Explorer?
I can get a hold of the solution explorer window object, but don't know what to do with it!
var solutionExplorer = (UIHierarchy)DTE.Windows.Item(Constants.vsext_wk_SProjectWindow).Object();
Thanks.
I've been looking all over, but I can't find anything free that will let me simply display math formulas on a window. I found one for Visual C++.net, but no APIs. Are there any out there?
I'm trying to use a WSDL Top Down approach to create a Web Service in VisualStudio 2010.
I used Eclipse's WSDL GUI Editor to generate a WSDL file (CalculatorWSDL.wsdl) which uses the SOAP method for communication.
I also used wsdl.exe to generate a C# file (Calculator.cs).
Now, I'm not sure what to do next. How do I actually use the Calculator.cs on the server and/or client?
Why do programmers consider Visual Basic a bad language?
Putting aside any gripes with Microsoft or with proprietary/non-free software in general, and looking the language itself. Syntax, style, etc.
I have just started using it, and find the syntax rather terrible. But I'm wondering what are the most common specific problems.
What is a "VisualStudio SharePoint Package file" (.package)? I am trying to extract some data and this is the only file that looks large enough to contain what I'm after.
I have written a NUnit test in Visual Web Developer 2008 Express. But when I run the test, it doesn't pause at the breakpoint I had set. It just keeps on running but at the breakpoint, I need a step-by-step view on the test.
Could anyone please tell me how I can use breakpoints with NUnit?
Thanks in advance!
I have developed an application using VisualStudio 2003. I have been told the hosting environment will be of a Windows Server 2008. Does it support my application?
I am using a custom colour scheme in VisualStudio 2008. The annotate bar (that shows who checked each block of code in and when) is rendering in some illegible colours. I can't identify which colours these are within the relevant Options dialog so I cannot change them to something clearer.
Does anybody know how to change these colours?
Sometimes I would like to undock a source file and slide it over to another monitor while editing another file. How do you do this in VisualStudio 2008?
When I create a MVC web application in VisualStudio 2010 it offers also to create a testing project using one of framework from the list.
But I have only VS built-in testing framework in it.
Is it possible to add NUnit there?
We added a SharePoint BDC model project to a solution in VisualStudio 2010. Ever since, whenever the solution is built, instead of showing the Build output in the Output window, it insists on having "SharePoint Tools" selected in the "Show Output from:" drop-down, just to say "Model validation started ... Model validation completed with no errors."
Short of shutting off any SharePoint projects in the build configuration, can this behavior be overridden?
In VisualStudio, two files are created when you create a new Windows Form in your solution (e.g. if you create MyForm.cs, MyForm.Designer.cs and MyForm.resx are also created). These second two files are displayed as a subtree in the Solution Explorer.
Is there any way to add files to the sub-tree or group for a Windows Form class?
Hey. Call me dumb but I can not get amaterasERD working with Aptana Studio under OS X.Is this doable? I have Aptana 2.04. I've installed amaterasERD, GEF, EMF, UML2 and AmaterasUMLExtension. No joy. Am I wasting my time?
Hi folks,
is it possible to have a way to clear the VisualStudio OUTPUT window, programatically? For example, the SysInternal's debugger app called DebugView has the specific command called DBGVIEWCLEAR .. which clears the log window.
Please don't say: right-click, clear window .. with the mouse. I know that, but that's not what i'm after.
cheers :)
Is there a g++ equivalent to VisualStudio's __declspec(novtable) argument?
Basically, in a pure virtual base class the __declspec(novtable) argument can be used to suppress the creation of a vtable for the base class as well as vtable initialization/deinitialization code in the contstructor/destructor respectively. E.g.,
class __declspec(novtable) PureVirtualBaseClass
{
public:
PureVirtualBaseClass(){}
virtual ~PureVirtualBaseClass() = 0;
};
See Paul DiLascia's article for more info. Also see my related question.
Visual Studio 2008 has a Copy Web Site tool that remembers previous FTP locations that files have been copied to. There is a "Connections" drop down where they are listed. I'd like to remove some old listings from that, but I can't find where they're stored.
I've looked at the solution file, and there's nothing there.

Open a file in the VisualStudio binary editor that contains a null byte (0x00), then use the Quick Find feature (Ctrl +F) to find null bytes.
I would have thought I could use a regular expression such as \x00 to match null bytes but it doesn't work. Searching for any other hex value using this method works fine.
Is this a VS bug, 'feature', or am I just missing something? Is there a work around?
Good afternoon
is there anyone who noticed that Find and Replace window each time is getting wider when coding and compiling?
Even when I resize this window in VisualStudio 2010, it gets wider again... :-(
Perhaphs is there a way to fix its size?
A project I'm on requires VisualStudio 2005. One annoyance is that when a website project in the solution, any compile errors from .aspx or .ascx files show up like:
(0,0): warning CS0168: The variable 'ex' is declared but never used
(0,0): warning CS0162: Unreachable code detected
(0,0): warning CS0168: The variable 'ex' is declared but never used
(0,0): warning CS0168: The variable 'ex' is declared but never used
How can I track these down? Is there an option I'm missing that gives me filename and line numbers?
Every so often (at least a couple of times a day), my VS2008 windows are rearranging themselves.
Team/Solution/Server Explorer - They jump from the right sidebar down to the bottom, or suddenly become free-floating.
Same with Errors/Pending Changes/etc. free-floating or suddenly gone, as if they've been closed.
It is very strange behaviour. Has anyone else experienced it? Am I doing something silly that would account for this?
For the longest time I've been curious to code in Intermediate Language just as an academic endeavour and to gain a better understanding of what's "happening under the hood".
Is there any sort of VisualStudio support for this in the form of: project templates, IntelliSense integration, and those kind of RAD features?

Is there a good analysis of why visual programming languages still haven't taken off? We're still coding these days 'linearly' in a 80x25 text window; while the concepts we represent (data structures, algorithms) seem like they can be more intuitively represented visually.

Hi,
a colleague and I are trying pair programming for the first time. We both remote into a development machine; I'm using RemoteDesktop and my colleague is using UltraVNC. This works great except that he can't see the Intellisense dropdown in VisualStudio 2008. According to online posts, this may be something to do with DirectDraw, but I don't see much by way of a workaround.
Has anyone else experienced this?
Thanks,
Andrew
