I have two VS2008 C++ projects. One builds a static library (.lib). The other uses that library and builds an executable. I would like to profile the .exe, but am primarily interested in the profile of the code inside the library. When I run the profiler in the .exe project, I only get stats on functions in that project, and the library ...
For some reason in Visual Studio when I build my application it wants to validate my CSS and show those up as build errors in the error list.

This is a two part question. Background: We moved our C# application from VS2005 to VS2008 and in the process moved the application from .net 2.0 to .net 3.5.

Thanks in advance, Bharath K. ...

I've followed a blog post by Scott Hanselman for managing configuration with PreBuild Events and have it working fine. I now want to split up my configuration into a couple of different files, so need to exectue the command again before the build.

I have a database I'd like to create an entity from, and then generate RESTful output. My objective is to add a property to one of the tables once it becomes an entity. The data for that property would be one I'd come up with through calculations done on a few different fields in the table. From there, the code generator would create ...
