I have extended visual studio 2010 beta2 (Isolated shell) to create a custom wpf grpahic designer with c# scription support.
Could anybody help about the scope of this approch in extending VS for this purpose..
Thanks,
Subin.
There must be a way to find out who checked out the file directly in Visual Studio without having to open the VSS client and navigate to the file.
Right?
Can I enable the "Comment out the selected lines" feature for working on text files in Visual Studio 2008 or 2010? I'd like the ability to use that function on files other than normal code related files. When I open a TXT file the comment and un-comment buttons are disabled. Is there a way to change that?
Thanks
In visual studio 2008 you have the navigation bar with Class Name combo box and Method Name combo box.
What is the shortcut to get inside any of these combo boxes from the code window?
Twitter will pop down a message bar at the top of the screen say "Wrong password" and after 10 seconds, it will slide up and disappear. Chrome also shows "Do you want to save the password" message box using such a way.
Does jQuery have a plug in to do that already? Does it also work in IE 6? Because usually, the display of relative to the viewport (using position: fixed) will not work on IE 6. thanks.
One of my (my team's) biggest peeves with VS2008 is the slow speed in which ascx load. It could take up to a couple minutes to do something as simple as a text or style change simply because of the time it takes to load an ascx page into the visual studio text editor. Half the time I'm tempted to check out the file, edit it in notepad, then check it back in.
Is there any trick to speeding this up?
My Visual Studio 2008 freezes under some conditions. First, after a restart it is fine, but once it starts updating IntelliSense and counting down items it stops on the same number (the number slightly changed with further changes in the project). After that I get a sure freeze for:
right-click in the code to get a context-menu
changing from Debug to Release and vice versa
quitting visual studio
After a freeze I have to kill the process. Any idea what is wrong here?
Visual Studio 2008, to be more specific. We're testing out moving to Perforce for source control, so I'd like to install the P4SCC plugin to monkey around with. However, I'd also like to continue using SourceSafe's IDE capabilities for projects that haven't been moved over yet. Can the two co-exist peacefully, or is it one or the other for a specific install of VS?
Is there a way to modify Visual Studio 2008 or 2010 project pre-build events from within your code in C#? Does C# have such preprocessor directives that would allow one to configure what gets run before project compilation and build?
Is it possible to use Visual Studio's testing system with native code? I have no objection to recompiling the code itself under C++/CLI if it's possible the code can be recompiled without changes -- but the production code shipped has to be native code.
The Premium Edition comes with code coverage support which I might be able to get cheaply from my University -- but I can get the Professional Edition for free from DreamSpark -- and that's the only thing I can see that I'd use. (But I'd use it a LOT)
I'd like to know if the express editions allows you to make WCF applications and what is cut from the Express edition in comparison from the full on Visual Studio.
I'm using Visual Studio 2010 RC. Would it be possible that after doing my UML Diagrams, I could then generate classes with method stubs from it?
Thanks
Hello,
I have just installed Visual Studio but it seems to have not installed properly. Here is a picture of the problem:
As you can see, there is no icon for the solution file even though Windows recognizes it correctly as a Visual Studio solution and opens it correctly.
How can I fix this? Thankyou.
I'm trying to install Visual Studio 2010 on Windows 7 64-bit and I keep getting following screen:

I tried to install also Visual Studio 2008 with similar result. I'm starting to think it might be caused by some problems with my Windows Installer. Any idea what could it be?
How do you get a list of all new files added to a visual studio project and checked in to TFS? I've tried using TFS sidekicks and view history, but they only show changesets which you have to open up to see the details. I'm simply after a list of new files in a particular branch. Thanks
I can't seem to install Visual Studio .NET on my Windows 7 machine (64 bit). Do I need Visual Studio 2008 to install?
I'm also looking for a good ASP.NET editor (which supports Intellisense), any recommendations?
There are several hot fixes for VS 2008 sp1, but it's a mess to install them all manually one by one. Is there some kind of Visual Studio Updater, which installs all the necessary hot fixes automatically?
Scott Hanselman suggests using Lucida Console, 14 to 18pt, Bold for the Visual Studio font when presenting. But that's a post from 2003, and I think I remember hearing that there was a better font in VS 2010. Is it Consolas? What font/size should I use when giving a presentation?
How do I set a path for dll's to be searched in Visual Studio for a particular project alone.
Now I am setting it in environment path variable, but I would like better control over this.
As the title asks, what's the difference between "Stop Debugging" and "Terminate All" in Visual Studio (I know those options are available in 2008, but not sure if it's called the same or something different in 2005 or 2010) ?
In the Visual Studio output window, you can double click a line that contains a file path and line number and it automatically takes you to that location. In my program, I need to mimic this behavior and be able to click something (a button for example) and do go to a specific file and line number that I tell it to go to. Any help/suggestions would be appreciated.
I am working in C#.
Is there any tool that will convert a multiline text, to a compatible multiline string for Visual Studio 2008/2005?
For example:
line1
line2
line3
line4
Should become:
"line1" & _
"line2" & _
"line3" & _
"line4"
I have a couple ANTLR-generated code files, and I'm currently happy with how they are working. I'd like to configure my project in Visual Studio (2008) so the debugger skips over methods defined in those files. How can I do this?
