Otherwise known as a hard edge, this is a line over which the mouse cannot cross. Useful in games and the like. Currently, I have a function that returns if my mouse cursor is in a polygon drawn on the screen. If it is not, I move my cursor to the last stored point that was in the polygon. if (!PointInPolygon(local, polyGon)) {...

Hi, I have a CVS add-in to Visual Studio. The add-in writes to the output window everything I do (commiting, editing, etc.). I built a macro that takes the output window and uses it to my own purpose. Now I moved to SVN, and I use the VisualSVN as add-in to the Visual Studio. But there is no SVN add-in that writes to the VS' output win...

Somehow, since some time I'm experiencing problems with debugging my ASP.NET website. Every time I try to debug the website ASP.NET shuts down (global.asax_Application_End is called).

I would like to create a few simple programs that don't have the huge .NET framework as a dependency. The obvious choice is C++ under Visual Studio. What's the best book for a programmer that has a reasonable familiarity with the C++ language but is a bit rusty on Win32 arcana? Also, what's the preferred jargon? "Native," "Win32," or "...
Is it possible to have Visual Studio check .aspx pages for errors when compiling? For example, if I have a Web Form with this control: <asp:Button ID="CancelButton" runat="server" OnClick="CancelButton_Click" Text="Cancel" /> If CancelButton_Click does not exist in the code behind, have VS throw an error when compiling the application...
I'm writing a bunch of tests for a class, and frankly I don't want to go to the effort of naming each test intelligently: "Compare2002to2002forLessThanOrEqual" I'm cool with TestMethod1 through TestMethod120 - but I've got to edit each name, and that gets annoying. Is there any plugin that will generate unique names for all the methods...
