When I import a COM assembly (dll) in to a Visual Studio project by adding it as a reference I can use the generated equivalent common language runtime assembly without issue. However if I try and convert the same COM assembly into a common language runtime assembly using tlbimp I run in to all kinds of problems. Is there a way to repl...
After spending some hours reading about Unit Testing and test driven development here on StackOverflow and on other sites posts pointed me to, I know two things: I want to use it I don't know where to start There are lots of good posts here about details, best practices etc, but what I am looking for is a beginners tutorial/introduct...
Hi, I am trying to set up some unit tests for an existing c++ project. Here's the setup: I have chosen Google Mock, which includes Google Test. I have added another project (called Tests) to the Visual Studio Solution. The units to test are in another project called Main. The plan is to add each cpp file that I want to test to the Tes...
I wrote a Nant script that executes MSBUILD.exe to compile a project on my dev machine. On my dev machine, the projects builds its output to bin\x86\Release and my Nant script zips up the contents of that directory. I then commit everything to SVN and let TeamCity run the Nant script that executes MSBUILD.exe to compile the project and z...
Hi, I'm frustrated. I already have a window open with the web site I'm debugging. I don't need VS to launch another one for me every time I need to debug. Is there a way to stop this behavior? Thank you. ...

Hello, Visual Studio refugee here. I've had to switch to Eclipse to write a couple of Java apps and I am really missing all the VS2008 goodness I've come to rely upon. I am new to Eclipse, so I simply might not be finding what I need. With that in mind, how do I replicate the following in Eclipse. Right click on a source code tab, a...
all of the projects in my solution have an output path of "..\Release" for Release builds and "..\Debug" for Debug builds. All of the projects works fine except for one. Whenever I build the problematic project in Release the dll that gets copied to "..\Release" comes from "obj\Debug" instead of "obj\Release". This happens both in VS ...
This may sound a bit provocative but it actually is a real question. Feel free to edit if you don't like the tone. Now, as much as I understand vi from my short experience with it like 10 years ago, it's a primitive text editor with one editable line at the bottom of the screen created before the scrollbars were invented, with some craz...
I came across the following and I am wondering what implications it is going to have on my cygwin/gnu environment should I be using something other than -o to name the output from a compile? Has there been some new standard adopted and do other compilers adhere to it? What would be the motivation for removing -o? DOS PROMPT>type c...
I'm using ASP.NET MVC a lot recently which means using server blocks a bunch. Visual Studio does this strange thing when I type: <% } %> and hit enter, I get this: <% } %> Which is unsightly and generally the most horrible thing I've ever seen. I've customized the Ctrl+K+D behavior pretty heavily and when I do this I ge...
Today I realized that I no longer have a ”Web Content Form” option (where you select a MasterPage) when I add new items to my ASP.NET web application. I know how to manually add a MasterPage to a web form, it’s just such a pain – and I really don’t understand why Web Content Forms suddenly are missing. Visual Studio Team System 2008, SP...
Hi - I have a ASP.Net application which implements a web service. Within the ASP.Net application there's a test script which consumes the web service and it all works etc. I have built a .NET console application and want to 'Add a Web Reference' so that the console app can consume the web service provided by the ASP.NET application.

I need to change the scope of a control from friend to public in my user control - what happened to the Modifiers property of a control? I don't see it in the property sheet.

Curious question. I'm using Microsoft's Sandcastle to generate documentation from the XML comments in my C# code. Several of my classes are implementing interfaces which already have commented methods. I'd rather not duplicate the documentation in both the interface method and the public implemented method. Is there some kind of tag ...
