When working in a VB.NET project in Visual Studio (2008 specifically, but hopefully the answer applies to any version) is it possible to have intellisense/auto-complete only show the "All" tab instead of the "Common"/"All" tab? Or alternatively, have it default to the "All" tab.

When editing C# code in Visual Studio 2010, the ENTER key makes IntelliSense complete the current suggestion, without adding a new line. In VB.NET, the default IntelliSense behavior for the ENTER key is to add a new line after completing the current suggestion.
How can I configure IntelliSense to change the VB.NET behavior to the C# one?I already know that I could press TAB or SPACE, but out of habit I always end up hitting ENTER (and changing line).
I'm trying to put newlines in my XML Comments in VB.Net. I've read two other posts about C#, XML multiline comments in C# - what am I doing wrong? Adding line breaks to comments for Intellisense But the suggested <para> or <br/> tags don't work. This,
''' <summary>
''' <para>Line one</para><br />
''' <para>Line two</para><br />
''' </summary>

Still appears like this:How can I make this work?
I am using Visual Studio 2010 Prof. In C# I can create my own Enumerator and use it like this:MyEnum value = Now, Intellisense will suggest a value of MyEnum. In VB, when I write:Dim value As MyEnum = I get a huge list of every types. When starting to write my enumerator value (could be a word like "sunny") it filters out some types but I would like to have it like in C#. Anyway I will use the MyEnum type and no "String nor Objecte nor IntPtr...".
View 2 RepliesIn Visual Studio 2005, I can't seem to get the Intellisense menu to pop up at all when I click CTRL+Space. This seems to be limited to VB.NET files. I have tried creating new Visual C# and C# web projects, and it works fine there. There also doesn't seem to be a problem in things like CSS files in VB.NET projects. But when I create a new VB.NET web site, CTRL+Space does nothing. I have tried resetting all the Import and Export setting. That didn't work either.
View 1 RepliesI have defined a class with multiple constructors so that the underlying interfaces are immutable once the object is instantiated. I would like one of the constructors to be the "default" constructor for when a user types the following in Visual Studio:
var obj = new MyClass( Dim obj As New MyClass(
Currently when I go to instantiate the object, the constructors aren't listed (in Visual Studio IntelliSense) in the order I declared them in my class. Is there a way to mark up my constructors so that their methods appear in a particular order during instantiation in Visual Studio IntelliSense?
I'm currently using VS2008 and VB.NET.When I attempt to populate a Queue that has not been instantiated with objects, the program simply hangs without throwing an error.I have run into this issue multiple times in different parts of the program in the past few days.What could be the cause of this?
Here's the code:

I am writing my first class-library in VB.NET. My idea is to distribute this library so others may use it in their applications.However, perhaps due to my lack of experience in writing and structuring the library and the classes therein, I noted that the methods/properties are ALL being shown in the IntelliSense of Visual Studio.
The thing is that many of them are only used within the library itself and should NOT be used by the developers (could create a disaster) when they incorporate my library in their application - only a few should be visibile i.e. the ones which are needed by the developer.Thus, my question is: is there a way to hide certain methods/properties of my library from Visual Studio's IntelliSense? Maybe something similar to REM?
EDIT: as mentioned - this is my first library and I now understand that my question could be intepreted in two ways:
1) how to hide something from IntelliSense
2) how to prevent a developer from using and calling certain methods/properties
Of course, the end-result that I want is that the developer is not able to access AT ALL certain methods/properties i.e. No. 2 above.
Is there a way to have the VB-Intellisense default to the All tab?
When I use the following:
for
It shows BadImageFormatException, when I want For Each
When I have to specify a parameter value which is of an predefined enumeration type, all I want is a list of possible values within this enumeration.
I have a class that uses My.Computer.Network.Ping to get a boolean value on whether a IP address or hostname is reachable.However, when I'm testing that class, I want to disable pinging so that during the test whenever I run the My.Computer.Network.Ping it will always return false or throw some kind of exception.
I have tried the following, but I still get a true returned (meaning, the attempts to disable ping didn't work)
Dim restricited As New System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkInformationPermission(System.Security.Permissions.PermissionState.None)
Dim mySocketPermission1 As New SocketPermission(PermissionState.None)
Dim myWebPermission As New WebPermission(PermissionState.None)
myWebPermission.Demand()'

I have a large solution which contains a mixture of C# and VB.Net projects.If I get compilation errors because a project which several other projects depend upon fails to build, it is very hard to see the actual error(s) because of the number of VB errors in the error list window in Visual Studio. C# errors found in the projects I compiled show in the error list, but all VB errors appear (including in those projects I have not just compiled).Is there any way of turning off this behaviour so that VB errors only appear for projects that I have explicitly compiled?

View 6 RepliesHow can I make it so that these messages don't show up in my output window from running my application inside visual studio (.NET) These stupid error codes flood my output window and I am doing some testing and using debug.print(" ") to print out vital information about potential bugs and now I have to search for the information like a needle in a haystack because of so many of these:
"The thread '<No Name>' (0x1e24) has exited with code 0 (0x0)."
Is there a way to stop just these ^ ones ?
I find that each time there is a new line when enter key is press in VB intellisense is annoying. Although space is ok, but each time it has a new space and I have to press return to remove it, which is also inconvienient for multiple selections.

View 2 RepliesI 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.

View 9 RepliesDoes 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?
