I was fooling around with the toolbars and noticed the Refactor section. So I made a toolbar with all of the refactor buttons and ... they don't do anything.I don't often customize so maybe I'm missing something.
View 6 RepliesI downloaded and installed Refactor. The install worked fine and Refactor works in VS 2005. However, I also have VS 2008 installed and I cannot get Refactor to appear in that IDE. Is there something I need to do to get Refactor to appear in VS 2005 and VS 2008 on the same machine?

View 13 RepliesI have a sulution consisting of aout 30 projects, where 8 of tehm are deployment projects. Currently, when I want to debug the winforms app, I press "start debugging", and wait for about 15 minutes for the solution to be built, and also the deployment projects to be built and packed. The solution itself is built in about 2 minutes, the rest of the time is for the deployment projects.So, my question, is there a way to make the setup in visual studio so that only the code projects are built and the deployment projects to be built manually when needed?

View 5 RepliesWe have lots of WCF services that are only used by our own code; the code that uses them is mostly in the same solutions files that contains the services.
However they do not use a shared assembly for the contracts, so each time a data contract is change the reference to the service has to be updated by hand in all projects that use the service. (Then the code needs to be fixed up by hand)
So how do I do a simple refactoring like renamed a data item in a data contract?
Is there a way to update all references to services in a single solution with one command, rather then having to click on each reference in each project?
This is a simplified version of a class that I have in my project. Since the Bonus is figured the exact same way in each function I want to remove the obvious code duplication that appears here and make the three different functions into one. However I am not sure how to provide the argument that this new function would require.
For instance I am currently just passing the argument like this from code
lblVolumeBonus.Content = TestClass.VolumeBonusAmountStore(bonus).
I think I have to basically turn this logic around and call it with something like
lblVolumeBonus.Content = TestClass.VolumeBonusAmountStore(BonusTrackerBO.StoreBonus)
but I am not sure of the correct syntax or whether I am on the right track at all.
Public Class TestClass
Public Shared Function StoreBonus(ByVal bonus As BonusTrackerBO.StoreBonus) As Double
[Code]....
Edit: It may not make a difference but I should have made clear that there are other factors in the equation (I was just trying to keep it simple). So is the answer the same when there are other callbacks to the bonus like bonus.MaximumAmount, bonus.MinimumAmount? There are 5 callbacks to the bonus object and the amounts are different depending on whether it is a Store, District or Company asking.
I have the following line of code
Dim a As String = ""
And the Refactor suggests replacing the "" with String.Empty
It is a kind of Refactoring but why? Since I am a newbie in the future declarations of mine should I better use the String.Empty ?
how do I refactor all my instance variable to have all the get and set method? I tried RefactorVB but it seems like it can only refactor 1 by 1.

View 14 RepliesI have created a simply Pizza program (for a summer project not education related) that uses check boxes to determine what the customer wants. Basically a simple pizza ordering program.I was wondering as I have used the If statement over and other again for different parameters and variables, is it possible to use multiply arrays to simply the VB Code...I was advised to use Constructors in VB.Net Or is there a more simpler way to go about creating this program...or a better way of programing?What about decreasing the repetition in the code?
[code]...
Assume you have controls A, B, C, D and E all with a Visibility property. You also have states 1,2,3,4,5 and 6 in which various combinations of your controls would be displayed. Currently this is being handled by switch statements for each state: i.e.
Select Case PageState
case "1"
a.visible = false
b.visible = true
[code]....
As you can imagine, this becomes a pain as every state needs a show/hide statement for each control. How can I refactor this so that adding controls and/or states becomes trivial?My first instinct is to extend the control and add a collection of states that it should display for but this sounds like overkill.
Edit:I was deliberately vague in my question in case this has other implications. In my current instance the "controls" in question are ASP Panels. Does that change anything?

View 3 RepliesHere is something I decided to come up with after backing up my virtual machiens with powershell code.
The software includes:
-dll to handle DB access and shared objects,
-GUI to manage the backup schedule,
-Windows Service to actually turn off the virtual machine, back it up, and power it back on, according to schedule.
It is not finished yet, but the main thing is is that the windows service actually backs up what you specify.
