IDE :: Core Coding Experience Live Meeting The Visual Studio 2010 Team?
May 26, 2009
Code Coring Experience Live Meeting the Visual Studio Team Visual C# and Visual Basic languages continue to evolve towards feature parity, strive to simplify programming and deployment with the Microsoft Office APIs, and allow easy interop to dynamic languages. In the tools space, Visual Studio 2010 offers greater support for Test-Driven Development, where tests are written before product code as an iterative approach to software design. In this interactive session you will get a chance to connect with the two Program Managers DJ Park and Dustin Campbell as they walk through the feature areas they feel will have the greatest impact to you and your development teams.
For those you that joined in, I would like to thank you for joining us last week on the topic of Visual Studio Setup.
This week, we have something even better with the team that has built the new editor: Sean Laberee; Kav Latiolais; Selma Ikizto and Brittany Behrens (whom many of you may have already met on the forums) to do a quick walk through of their new features -and of course gather your feedback for the work of sorting through their Beta2 DCRs.
I'm working on two different projects - both in VB.NET/Visual Studio 2008 (as much as I'd like to move to 2010).
I find I'm confusing the different coding standards that I'm supposed to follow. IE - Project1 wants variables named in a Hungarian-style notation like 'iSomeValue'; the does not want a prefix. One project requires an _ prefix on private class-level variables - etc...etc...
Are there any tools I can integrate with VS 2008 that will let me easily swap between pre-defined styles and format my code for me?
Will i be able to successfully install 2010 beta 2 side by side 2008? because i want to test 2010 features and some development toolkits such as silverlight while i don't want to uninstall my visual studio 2008 professional.
Does anybody know which version of Visual Studio 2010 contains the full set of Visual Basic SharePoint Templates? I am about to embark on a project to create Visual Web Parts to be used in a SharePoint report.
At the moment I am using Visual Studio 2008 and even though the WSPBuilder is installed none of the relevant SharePoint templates are present.Having searched SO and the web, most advise to install the templates via the Visual Studio command prompt: devenv /installvstemplates
Alas the Visual Studio command prompt is also missing from my VS2008 installation.So, the question remains: which version of VS2010 contains what I need for pain-free SharePoint development? There is a rather large price different between VS2010 Professional and VS2010 Premium, so can anyone tell me if the cheaper version (VS2010 Professional) contains all the Sharepoint templates?
I am just wondering how I can add Direct X references to Visual Basic in Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2. I cant find them in the .NET reference list, or the reference list, or anywhere. I downloaded the Direct X SDK for August 2009, but I can not add the .dll files to the reference list. Is there anything I can do to add them? I need the references for programming reasons.
I want to use "OpenGL" in my project. Is it possible to associate it with "Visual Basic" application developed in Visual Studio 2010? If yes then how can we do it.
I have a project in visual basic 2010 and want to convert it to visual studio 2010 so I don't have to chose the "open with" every time. Is there a tutorial on how to do this?
To reproduce the error I'm getting:Create a new Visual Studio 2010 ASP.NET web site in Visual Basic, targeting .NET 2.0Type "Public Property Test As String" Observe "Visual Basic 9.0 does not support auto-implemented properties." error Visual Studio 2010 is happy to use VB 10 against .NET 2.0-targeted Windows Forms applications, this only appears to be an issue with ASP.NET.Is there a way to force Visual Studio 2010 to use VB 10 when targeting .NET 2.0?
have just overlooked something somewhere...I am writing VB.NET stuff in VS2010 on Windows 7 64-bit. It seems to build by default for a 32-bit target, how to I tell it to make a 64-bit executable?
How to find the best way to develop a way to send a meeting request with a .Net application. I'm beginning in .Net development. The thing I'd like : the user has a form where that he can fullfill with the info about the meeting. Then, the server creates a .ics file with those information. I'd like next to suggest the user to send this meeting request. So, is it possible to create a mailto with an attachement that's located on my server? Is it the best way to handle this problem? Ain't there any other possibility to interact between an app and Outlook? I'm developping in VB.Net for a web application using the framework ASP.NET MVC 3.
WebMatrix is a web development and deployment tool by Microsoft so how is this compared to Visual Studio? which Use C# Razor Syntax is that more better coding.
I have to compile projects which was compiled in Visual Studio 6 in Visual Studio 2005. When i compiled i got a set of same error. I opened the project for VS6 by selecting File->open->project/solution and tried to build a solution by Build option but i am getting the following error.
At present I have wrote an application (in-house CRM, vb .net 2010) which allows me to send emails under the selected customer & I categorised these emails.As these are categorised I can return data to display email history in my program by using search criteria:
Dim oMail As Outlook.MAPIFolder = oNS.GetDefaultFolder(Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderSentMail) Dim sSearch As String sSearch = "[Categories] = '" + "[" + tAccount.Text.Trim + "]" + "(" + tShipTo.Text.Trim + ")'" Dim oItems As Outlook.Items = oMail.Items.Restrict(sSearch)
However the limitation to the above is it only looks at sent items & no other folder.My ideal solution would be to display all email correspondence for a certain contact.
Well I used the Visual Studio 2010 installer to install my application and I want it to be able to change the version displayed in the in the Add/ Remove Programs (in the Control Panel). How can I do this without going through the install wizard again?
I'm working on a project started in VB9 (VS 2008) and now I've migrated to VS2010 (VB10) but on the production server the IDE is still VS 2008. On my developement enviroment the code compiles fine, but sometimes, - let's say - I forget an _ at the end of the line which causes the VB9 compiler to throw an error.So the question is, how could I build a project with the VS 2010 IDE but VB9 compiler? Or to force the VB10 compiler into VB9 mode?
I have to develop an application using MS Visual Studio 2005 or above with the following objective:
* The application should allow users to create as many new forms as they want and each form should behave like a MS Visual Studio WinForm. By saying that it should be a container for drag and drop of controls from the toolbox that I will develop....
* Once the user design's each screen to his taste by placing various controls on the form, he should be able to save the form as a screen. Of course I have to provide functionality for each of the controls such as if he drags a button on to the form, he should be able to specify what action it has to perfom when clicked when the application is put into run mode. Quite similar to regular windows form button.
* My application should have two modes: a DESIGN MODE, where user can drag, drop controls and specify what they should do when put into RUN MODE. This is quite similar to MS Visual Studio designer.
* Last but not least is to be able to access the application via the browser with the same look and feel his desktop version.

Now I'm at the end of the first part of my project and now i need to print a voucher with few pre-printing words and 7 fields that comes from a dataset.I try to use *rdlc file on which i made all the necesary layout very good, and the link was very good as well But print NO I did something in *.xaml file very dificult to put controls and make the links.But lets say i will do it, for the moment i have a picture and a label with few words, and I'm trying to print it with the following lines
Dim myPrintDialog As PrintPreviewDialog = New PrintPreviewDialog Dim myDocument As New PrintDocument myPrintDialog.Document = myDocument myPrintDialog.Document.DocumentName = "OrderVoucher.xaml" myPrintDialog.ShowDialog()
But in the dialog I see only a blank page.Of course I have a mistake in my mentality of building my code but I don't know where is that.I also need to admit that is the first time in my life which I'm trying to print from Visual Studio 2010.Now Please I need the best assistance you can give me.For the moment i want to print in my default Laser printer.But in the final stage i will have to print in an Olivetti PR2 (Bank printer) which will be connected in the com: port.That will be the day if I succeed :)
After installing VS 2010 SP1 I noticed that ByVal keyword doesn't automatically appear after declaring Function or Sub parameters. Is it new feature or bug?
I am using visual basic and when I try to hide Navigation bar, I am not able to, it is disabled.Ok I tried to turned it off going to "all languages", althought I unchecked the setting. It didnt dissapear.
I restarted visua studio, closed all open classes.Ps, It is just visual basic, when i try with c# i can hide and show it.i dont understand what is the difference. I have to remove it because it makes coding too slow
Each time i type codes in the Visual Basic 2010 IDE (Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate Edition) and compile it to run, i keep getting this nasty error report below
Error 1 The "GenerateResource" task failed unexpectedly.
System.DllNotFoundException: Unable to load DLL 'FileTracker.dll': A dynamic link library (DLL) initialization routine failed. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007045A) at Microsoft.Build.Shared.NativeMethodsShared.InprocTracking.StartTrackingContextWithRoot(String intermediateDirectory, String taskName, String rootMarker)
I'm trying to make an app using visual studio 2010?I have this excel formula that will calculate a 6 Digit code from a 11 digit serial number.The excel is pretty old and it consts of math operations such as RIGHT, LEFT, MID and POWER I managed to "translate" that to Microsoft.VisualBasic.Right, Microsoft.VisualBasic.Left, Microsoft.VisualBasic.Mid and Math.Pow but i'm not sure if i did it right, since is not giving me the result i'm looking for, instead of a 6 digit number is giving me something like this: 9.9E+52?
I have a problem regarding solutions that I have to develop. I work in a company which has a standard of NET Framework 3.5.Also the company has bought Visual Studio 2010 Premium for me.I need to develop an application in which I have to insert som Charts. Previosly in Visual Studio 2008 Express was very simple because I have installed MSChart Addon from Microsoft.The problem with VS2010 Premium is that I cannot create aplication with charts in NET Framework 3.5, only in .NET 4 but I cannot develop solutions in NET Framework 4.0 because, like I have said, the company standard installation is NET Framework
