I'm busy with a small, simple add-in, but the process seems massively complicated and badly documented. Right now, the only event that fires in the add-in is OnConnection. The other two I'm trying to handle just don't seem to exist. private DTE2 applicationObject; private SolutionEvents solutionEvents; public void OnConnecti...

When I create a test using MS Visual Studio's builtin unit test wizard it creates code with lines like the below: double number = 0F; In C# "F" stands for float, case-independent, and "D" for double. Using "F" suffix instead of "D" leads to precision lost. If it's a bug, where can I report it to Microsoft? ...
This seems like a common case, but for whatever reason, I am stymied by EF's weak editor. I have two tables, like so: Table1 ( Column1 int, PK Column2 int, PK ) Table2 ( Column1 int, PK, FK Column2 int, PK, FK Column3 int, PK ) Now, the database (out of our control) does not have foreign key constraints. In this example, Table2 is s...

But now I am testing Visual Studio Code Analysis tool, which is easier to integrate into MSBuild, and I have found that this tools analyses some of the rules of both FxCop and StyleCop.

I'm using Visual Studio C++ 2008 Express to learn a native API for a new project. What I'm wondering is: what productivity features present in the full version that you take for granted are missing from Visual Studio Express? I'm not referring to large "paid" features like MFC support - I'm thinking of small features (sometimes provided...

Hi When I'm adding an image to a .resx resources file in Visual Studio 2008 (C# project), VS always decides to add the file itself to the solution (in a Resources folder) and set its Persistence property to "Linked at compile time". The behaviour I want is for the source image file contents to be added to the .resx file, the Persistenc...

I am creating a sample C# project to demonstrate some patterns. Along with the project, I'd like to include a "Readme.mht" which contains an overview of the sample, some diagrams, and instructions for how to test it.

This seems like it should be a simple thing to do, but I can't figure it out. I have a localized resource that I'm using in two places - one as a col. header in a datagrid, and then as a descriptor beside a field when the user edits a row. The text of the label looks like: Text="<%$Resources:Global,keyName%>" However, I'd like to ad...
