Is the remote debugger from VS2010 compatible with VS2008?
That is, can connect from visual studio 2008 to a machine running the remote debugger installed by VS 2010
Is it just me, or does VS 2008 not allow setting a breakpoint just on the setter of an auto-property?
It looks something like this:
public int CurrentFramesize
{
get;
protected set;
}
and if I try to set a breakpoint on the setter line, the whole auto-property turns breakpoint-red.
Does the original data type of the username string in a call to FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(...) make any difference with regards to security or code maintainability?
As I understand it, the cookie is encrypted and used to identify a user on each request. I'm curious whether it should affect the design of the primary key on my Users table in my database, eg. Guid vs int or a unique username string.
I think I encountered something extraordinary strange in VS 2008.
All the array values are 0x00, but why it is displayed 0x00000008 at the start of the variable?
Possible Duplicates:
Public Data members vs Getters, Setters
Purpose of private members in a class
What is the use of getters and setters when you can just make your variables public and avoid the hassle of such lines as A.setVariableX(A.getVariableY())?
If I were to build a newsletter emailing system, I will need to be able to generate reports on how many emails bounced, flagged as spam, unsubscribed, read vs. unread, click through rates etc....
So how do you keep track of user activity after the email has been sent? Am I right in assuming that you CAN NOT embed javascript code into emails to monitor user activity? How else do I gather data for my reports?
I want to know how to do method tracing for Android applications. I mean, a sequence of calls on each object, not a stack trace.
It's very similar to this question (Call trace in java), but on different platforms (jvm-PC vs dvm-Android). I have no control over the start arguments of dalvik, thus I cannot specify a java agent (or am I wrong here?). Is there another way to do method tracing?
Thanks!
I need to develop a geometry library in python, describing points, lines and planes in 3d space, and various geometry operations. Related to my previous question.
The main issue in the design is if these entities should have identity or not. I was wondering if there's a similar library out there (developed in another language) to take inspiration from, what is the chosen design, and in particular the reason for one choice vs. the other.

I cannot get rid of this in my VS 2008 web project when debugging. I've checked that it's in debug mode on the non-web project in question and it's in Active(Debug). Deleted all items in my .NET 2.0 temp folder in Windows. Not sure what else to do here.
I'm using the VS addon called VisualAssistX. Using it for C++ only.
In particular i'm using the feature "rename this entity projectwide", mainly for class names and function names.
My question is: does this use fuzzy heuristics, or does it actually reliably implement C++ semantics so there's no false negatives/false positives?
Has it ever renamed something wrong for you?
I have an Entity Framework model using Table per Type Inheritance, but when I use a VS Data Generation Plan it produces duplicate keys in the child tables, which is a problem for EF. Does anyone know of a way to get this to work, so that the child tables do not have overlapping keys?
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?
Hi,
I would like know how this feature is implemented in VS - I understand it holds some sort of weak-reference to the object in the debugged-application's memory, but how exactly is it accomplished?
I know simply tracking the address (as in native code) wouldn't work, because the GC might move the object about, invalidating the address.
Thanks.
Everytime the IWpfTextView's TextBuffer changes I am trying to get the history's redostack and undostack and simply checking the count. When doing this I am encountering a "Method not supported exception" when trying to access the two stacks.
Am I retrieving the history incorrectly or does VS not want me seeing/editing the contents of the stacks?
I can post the code if necessary...
Thanks,
Nick
How can I write a unit test to test the actualWidth property to a userControl in Silverligh 4?
I hoped that this method would pass, but it fails.
I am using the Silverlight ToolKit april 2010, and VS 2010.
<TestMethod()> _
Public Sub TestAcrtualWidth()
Me.MyUserControl.Width = 100
Me.MyUserControl.UpdateLayout()
Assert.IsTrue(Me.MyUserControl.ActualWidth > 0)
End Sub
I have a complex inheritance structure in my data model. A majority of classes in my model (which is designed in VS 2010 with a DB generated by it after) are derived from 3 basic classes. And only these 3 classes can be found among the context members. How do I use all the derived classes at all?
Since the release of VS 2010 I've seen F# more strongly advertised by Microsoft. What are the core benefits of using this language? What problems does it most naturally lend itself to? What is the learning curve like?
I have a format of pages that I want to perform an A/B comparison on using google website optimizer.
the URLs look as follows - the first page I want to compare...
<mywebsite.com>/request1/([a-zA-Z0-9\-]*)_([0-9]+).htm
vs
<mywebsite.com>/request2/([a-zA-Z0-9\-]*)_([0-9]+).htm
the goal page is
<mywebsite.com>/request-sent.htm
How can I set this up in google website optimizer? If it's not possible, are there alternative solutions available for doing such comparison reports online?
Hi,
I'm not quite sure what field to use when adding more than 30 days to a Java Calendar object. Is there any difference in between Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH and Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR?
Example:
GregorianCalendar d = new GregorianCalendar();
d.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR, 90);
vs
GregorianCalendar d = new GregorianCalendar();
d.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, 90);
Thanks.
We're convincing our Products officer that we want to use JRuby on Rails, and we're having a hard time coming up with some statistics which show that:
Coding time is less using Rails vs. say Struts or Zend Framework or what have you.
Ruby (and JRuby in particular) performance isn't horrible (anymore).
Rails performance isn't bad either.
If you can get us some good stats quickly, we might have a chance!
In general, I want warnings of unsigned vs signed.
However, in this particular case, I want it supressed;
std::vector<Blah> blahs;
for(int i = 0; i < blahs.size(); ++i) { ...
I want to kill this comparison.
Thanks!

C# spec. allows you to call a function
void foo(params int[] x)
with zero parameters. However, I didn't find in C# Lang. Spec. a word on further behaviour -- will foo get empty array or null reference? I checked also MSDN -- nothing.
Where the behaviour is defined?
NOTE: I am not asking how VS behaves, I am asking about design of the language.
Hi,
I like using Visual Basic for C++. I'm a student
I noticed the web development feature in it, and I was wondering if it is any good for web design, maybe if someone has used it or does use it if they can give a few words on weather or not it's worth learning?
I have been using Dreamweaver as my platform for web design.
So pretty much I'm asking Dreamweaver VS Visual Studio for webdesign, pros and cons?
