Guys, I opened this question (I hope could help some others) but reading stackoverflow I find some really interesting pearls of information lost in the cloud. What do I mean? For example I was reasearching the Web for the best way to validate parameters in methods. I was breaking my head trying to find a nice, elegant way to do it, then...
I am trying to move a set of fairly complex C++ applications/libraries from building with makefiles and command-line tools to using Visual Studio's MsBuild. The apps/libs reference several hundred database tables, each of which has an object-relational-mapping class that handles reads, updates, etc. Each table is defined in a table def...
My web application depends on a web.config entry being a certain value (like FEATURE_ACTIVATED=true) so how do I test the function that reads this web.config entry? I'd like to avoid copying the web.config entries to an app.config in the unit testing project, as it takes extra effort to synchronize the files. ...

I opened up Business Intelligence Design Studio (BIDS) the other day. Since then my visual studio toolbars and panes have been all screwed up. Commands are missing, panes never stay where I want them, etc. Whenever I install VS, I usually select the Web Developer settings when the first time dialog comes up. I'm pretty happy with the la...
Rephrasing the question to see if I get some views. Following is how you would get the current solution directory from an add-in: _applicationObject = (DTE2)application; // retrieved from OnConnection method string solutionDir = System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(_applicationObject.Solution.FullName); How would you do this via a VSPack...

Itellisense is suddenly missing from Visual Studio 2008 IDE on a project I am working. This was working fine. I rebooted the machine several times but still not working. It's working in other projects. What else could be causing this? ...
To create a website I chose 'create website' in VS2008. I soon discovered that the compile options were not available (or at least I could not find the option) like creating serialization assemblies. So I created a project and made the site into a 'project'. As a web site I could have the page open in a browser, save a change to pag...

I have a WPF VB.NET project in Visual Studio 2008. For some reason, Visual Studio thinks that it needs to add an Imports MS.Internal.Xaml.Builtins to every auto-generated XAML partial class (= the nameOfXamlFile.g.vb files), resulting in the following warning: warning BC40056: Namespace or type specified in the Imports 'MS.Interna...

Hi, Is there a way to tell in the code if you are running in the debugger in VS2008? I need to set up a couple things for us developers differently than when the user is running the click one deployed app?
