Visual Studio 2008 (
RSS)
Now this got me puzzled today for some time. I started up Visual Studio 2008 and opened a solution I had been working on for some time. But when trying to debug the application, it threw an error on Unity and the SerivceLocator trying to get an instance...
I got sick of manually attaching to the webserver (either aspnet_wp.exe on WinXP or w3wp.exe on Win2003 or later). You can have a macro for that, incl. a shortcut key. I got this from somewhere on the web, but forgot where. If I find out, I’ll of course...
I regularly forget, after re-installing my desktop or laptop, what settings I had configured in Visual Studio. Today I was looking for another one and decided to blog about it, for a personal reference. More will probably come to my mind or I get some...
I’m doing some work with TypeMock and I start to love it more and more. For example, how about removing your database completely from your continuous tests? Sure you can do some database testing during the nightly build, but please keep the tests as fast...
A little snippet that I use from time to time when I need information on how long something takes. Type ‘sw’ (without the quotes) and tab-tab . Installation is easy, just create a file called “sw.snippet” in your %Documents%\Visual Studio 2008\Code Snippets...
This has taken us some time; depending on which environment you are, telling Visual Studio 2008 for Database Professionals Edition (or simply DataDude) what user it should use to deploy the SQL scripts, during an automated build. We're working with...
UPDATE : CopySourceAsHtml can be obtained from CodePlex . I was looking for CopySourceAsHtml for Visual Studio 2008, but for some reason it's not on the 'official' page so I had to search for it. There are multiple versions, but on Guy Burstein's...
In Visual Studio 2008 you can right-click a project and choose for "Add service reference" to create a proxy class for your web service. WCF preferred, of course. But for some reason, the Visual Studio team disabled it when you're in debug...
When people want start learning about .NET in general or a specific subject like Silverlight or security, can be send to the "How Do I?" videos. I do this myself a lot of times, because a lot of videos aren't 60+ minutes. Just as a reminder...
David , Alex and me just needed to get a load of data from some Excel sheets and work with the data. What's better than to load the data into a DataSet using OleDB and process it using LINQ to DataSets? Make sure you know what the format of your columns...
I blogged about new Unit Testing features in Visual Studio 2008 , but missed the following features back then. I thought it's still cool to share these with you. Short cut keys to run tests I used to use TestDriven.NET in the past for executing my...
For those that are still curious after my previous post about using C# 3.0 features in .NET 2.0 . You can compile any .NET Framework 3.5 project and run it in a .NET Framework 2.0 environment (read, no .NET Framework 3.5 installed) without any problems...
Yesterday I wrote an article on the property snippet in Visual Studio 2008 and that it had changed from Visual Studio 2005. Only a few hours later, I questioned myself if even a few people might be interested in this. Not because of the snippet, but because...
In .NET Framework 3.5, we've gained automatic properties. Automatic properties are really simple to understand. Instead of writing a full getter and setter with a private field (called a backing field, because it belongs to the property) you just...
I got an e-mail with the question how to turn off automatic checking for updates, when you're doing a manual check for updates with ClickOnce . Strangely enough I forgot to mention this in my previous article. The above dialog window can be obtained...
