I'm trying to compile some source code with Visual C++ 2010 Express. The code was written for GCC, and contains attributes like this: struct something { ... } __attribute__((packed)); Since this is not standard C++ syntax, Visual C++ doesn't recognize it.

I have a web solution that contains 5 class libraries and one asp.net web site project. It's an e-commerce solution that is compiled for .NET 3.5 (some class libraries are set to .NET 2). When I got VS 2010 installed I decided to give a try and upgrading it to .NET 4 but that didn't go so well, can't remember why. I reverted the sou...
I'm using Dotfuscator in Visual Studio 2010. I want to run Dotfuscator as a post build event so every time I build a project Dotfuscator will run on the output DLL using a configuration I've created and I'll get a new Dotfuscated DLL without having to manually open Dotfuscator. After it will be obfuscated, I'll resign it (using sn.exe)...

I'm having graphics issues with Visual Studio 2010. When I open a solution only part of the UI renders. Entire sections like the solution explorer will be missing.

I have never spent much time debugging multithreaded .NET apps (or others), and have quite a simple one to solve very quickly. Ideally I would imagined and would lurve to be able to intercept thread creation and use by worker objects, so that nothing unexpected happens while I'm on a breakpoint in my thread.
