The text editor in Visual Studio 2008 was very fast over Remote Desktop. The text editor in Visual Studio 2008 SP1 is very slow over Remote Desktop, causing way too much repainting (and resulting flickering). The slower your connection is, the worse the problem is, but it's aggravating enough even when RDPing into a machine on the same ...

My development environment is disconnected from the internet, and it seems that visual studio 2008 is very slow there. My guess is that the slowness is a result of vs2008 timeouts on attempts to perform internet operations, since on a similar PC that is connected to the internet, vs2008 is much faster. Does anyone know how can I speed up...

Hi! I'm constantly using the "Implement interface" shortcut in Visual Studio 2008. My "problem" is that i want Visual Studio to use the String-alias instead of string in every instance. Since i'm forced to use String instead of string this would save me a great ammount of time. For example, i want the following: public Catalogue(Stri...
I have just installed Visual Studio 2008 on a Virtual PC to evaluate it and one of the features I want to try out is the Code Analysis. However I can't seem to find it anywhere, on MSDN it says you can right click on a project and select properties and then simply enable it from there. However I don't see this option anywhere. At fi...
If so, is it a stack? That is, can I: GoToDefinition GoTODefinition GoToDefinition and then pop back up the call stack? None of the Edit.GoTo... commands do what I am looking for. TIA. ...
I have a C++ class I'd like to access from a C# application. I'll need to access the constructor and a single member function. Currently the app accepts data in the form of stl::vectors but I can do some conversion if that's not likely to work? I've found a few articles online which describe how to call C++ DLLs and some others which de...
I'm working on a project that uses the testing tool built into VS 2008. Periodically I will see an error comparable to: Value of type 'AcademyPro.Code.BLL.Appearance' cannot be converted to 'AcademyPro.Code.BLL.Appearance'. Type mismatch could be due to the mixing of a file reference with a project reference to assembly 'AcademyPro'. Tr...

I'm trying to help debug a hang with the VS 2008 debugger. If I double click a thread in the Threads pane, I can see the trace for that thread in the Call Stack pane. My question is: Is there a way to get all the call stacks for all the threads in one shot, without having to select each thread individually? I want to email the trac...
Why running debug doesn't build all selected project in the active configuration? Normally I've got some DLLs which are connected to the main project indirectly (MEF) and when I run in debug (F5) VS.NET doesn't build those DLLs. I have to Build (Ctrl+Shift+B) first, then debug the application to debug the current versions of those DLLs....
In one of my class libraries I use multiple setting files to seperate settings based on components. In the VS project designer you can use automatic ApplicationSettings to store forms data (controls, checkboxes, etc...). If there is only one settings file in the project it will use this, however using multiple settings files confuses the...

I want to write a visual studio addon to do some code modifications for me (like some specific refactoring). I was wondering which one of these tools should I use and why? we have licenses for resharper, the other two are free and this is an internally used software, so we don't need to worry about licensing. ...
