I'm trying to get my Javascript documentation in order so that my comments can be used by Intellisense), for example displayResults = function(msg, filterParams) { /// <summary> /// Gathers inputs and refreshes the grid and map /// </summary> /// <param name="msg">JSON data returned by GetConcessions ajax call</param> ...
With the release of Visual Studio 2008, Microsoft implemented code-completion and IntelliSense support for JavaScript. Unfortunately the support for JavaScript is shady at best--one of the major hassles being that when referencing external JavaScript files, the developer has to open and close JavaScript files to force Visual Studio to u...
I've read a number of posts touting the merits of migrating from VS 2005 to 2008. However, I'd love to hear what the various pitfalls are in actually doing the migration. We're about to migrate and I'd prefer knowing what speed bumps to anticipate and plan for instead of discovering them by surprise along the way. Any helpful guidance on...
What steps do I need to take to get HTML documentation automatically building via the build step in Visual Studio? I have all the comments in place and the comments.xml file being generated, and Sandcastle installed. I just need to know what to add to the post-build step in order to generate the docs. ...
OK, so see questions like this one and this one and the question I have is - does one have to use Expression Blend to do Silverlight development or can any of it be done with just Visual Studio? (2008, in this case) I haven't gotten started using Silverlight yet and through my workplace's MSDN I can get Expression Blend without any issu...

I've worked with a couple of Visual C++ compilers (VC97, VC2005, VC2008) and I haven't really found a clearcut way of adding external libraries to my builds. I come from a Java background, and in Java libraries are everything! I understand from compiling open-source projects on my Linux box that all the source code for the library se...
Can I safely download and install .Net framework 3.5 SP1 without requiring my customers to upgrade their .Net Framework distributable? EDIT: And without changing my build script EDIT: I'm currently running 3.5 ...
Just playing around with the now released Silverlight 2.0. I'm trying to put a simple Calendar in a control. However the project doesn't seem to know what I'm talking about:- <UserControl x:Class="MyFirstSL2.Test" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml...
Hello, We're looking at upgrading from Visual Studio 2005 to Visual Studio 2008. I discovered the following disturbing comment: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/6sehtctf.aspx "Beginning with Visual C++ 2008, Visual C++ does not support targeting Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows ME, or Windows NT." Does this mean that if we rebu...
I'm using VisualSVN client and server and one of the requirements for web projects to work as expected is to have the .sln in the same directory (root) as the other files. I thought it was as simple as removing all the extra parent paths ../ and other relative paths and saving it. However when I try to open it just locks up Visual Studi...
I have a project with two silverlight apps (foo1 and foo2) and an ASP.NET web service (foo.web). When I created foo1, I configured it to be hosted in my web app by selecting "Link this Silverlight control into an existing web site" and then choosing foo.web as the site. However when I created foo2, I chose "Automatically generate a tes...
Can you suggest some ways/tips to decrease Resharper memory usage in VS 2008. Working set memory for my VS with 50 projects is around 650mb+ Edit: Now that 4.5 is out, this question is no longer relevant. ...
In VS2008 I have writen a c# service, an installer and created a setup package to install it. The service needs to load an xml file to operate. Where is the best place to put this file in the various filesystem folders offered by the VS setup project, and how do I then refer to these paths from my code? Thanks [I should point out the t...
I'm having some trouble with Visual Studio 2008 on my Windows XP SP2 laptop. What happens is that when I start a program with a few textboxes and stuff like that, the boxes are see-through. I can litteraly see through them and see what's on the underlaying screen. Like if I only have this Form showing and behind that my wallpaper, I can...
How hard would it be to use GCC instead of VC++ from within Visual Studio 2008? Obviously, some of the keywords won't match, and some may not get syntax highlighting (unless you made a new language service). Is this what a 'makefile project' is for, pretty much? ...
Does anyone know how to set the code text editor font style to italics in Visual Studio 2005 or 2008? Note, I'm talking about the code editor not in code itself. ...
I am generating doxygen documentation for my (fairly small) project on each build. I did the following to accomplish this: Added the index.html, which doxygen generates, to the project Specified a Custom Build Step for this file (not the whole project) Command line: doxygen ../doc/Doxyfile Outputs: ..doc/html/index.html Additional Dep...
Hello, I have a problem with Visual C++ 2008. I have installed opencv and I've created a new program and I build it with no errors. However, it complains about not finding MSVCR90D.dll when debugging. In release mode there is no problem at all. I do have MSVCR90D.dll in one of Winsxs folders. Does anyone know a get-around to this prob...
