Ok, so I have installed a copy of VS2010 Professional but suppose I want to get Ultimate or even Premium. How would I install it such that it upgrades rather than a new program?
I'm a new VS user.
I've received some sample C++ projects working with a 3rd party API. They were saved in VS2012 format, but I have VS 2013. After conversion I find that there is an API specific macro defined in the project properties in the "Linker|General|Additional Library Directories" category.
If I click on 'edit' I can replace the macro…
I have two screens on my VS2012. No problems with title bar on the main screen, on the secondary however, the title bar takes up lots of space - see screenshot attached.
In VS2010, for example, the title bar on secondary screen is a lot thinier. I guess this change was made to address touch interfaces (??) but it is highly inconvenient to waste…

NuGet is a package manager that helps developers to automate the process of installing and upgrading packages in VisualStudio projects. It is free and open source. You can see the project in codeplex from the below link. http://nuget.codeplex.com/ Now days developers needed to work with several packages or libraries from various…
I am trying to make a tree view be async. When the page is rendered, there is default tree items displayed. jsTree tries to reload the root anyway.
I want the page to render (with jsTree init'ed) with default items rendered from browser, not the ajax call. Then we the user tries to go deeper, thats when I want to do do the ajax calls.…
Visual Studio 2010 has no longer uses .vsprops files and instead uses .props files.
To include a .vsprops file in a VisualStudio 2008 project, one could right-click the project icon in the Solution Explorer panel, choose Properties, go to the Configuration Properties | General section, and modify the Inherited Project Property Sheets…

I have a plain text file where indentation is important.
line 1
line 1.1 (indented two spaces)
line 1.2 (indented two spaces)
line 1.2.3 (indented four spaces)
In VisualStudio 2008, when I pressed enter, the next line would also be indented four spaces.
However, in VisualStudio 2010, when I press enter, the…

I have to mount a WebDav location and wait for the operation to be finished before to proceed (it's a script).
So I'm using the library in this way:
location = gio.File("dav://server.bb")
location.mount_enclosing_volume(*args,**kw) # The setup is not much relevant
location.get_path() # Returns None because it's not yet…
This is the twenty-fourth in a series of blog posts I’m doing on the VS 2010 and .NET 4 release. Today’s blog post covers a very small, but still useful, feature of VS 2010 – the ability to “pin” projects and solutions to both the Windows 7 taskbar as well VS 2010 Start Page. This makes it easier to quickly…
Two weeks ago I blogged about a cool new site that allows you to download and customize the VisualStudio code editor background and text colors (for both VS 2008 and VS 2010 version). The site also allows you to submit and share your own VisualStudio color schemes with others. Another new community site has…
One of the initiatives I’m involved with on the ASP.NET and VisualStudio teams is the Tactical Test Team (TTT), which is a group of testers who dedicate a portion of their time to roaming around and testing different parts of the product. What this generally translates to is a day and a bit a week helping…
I can’t wait for a third-party to come out with tools to return some colour to the flat, monochrome look of VisualStudio 11 (beta). What bugs me most are the icons. I feel like a newbie when I have to squint and analyze the shape of icons on the debugging toolbar just to get the one I want. (Fortunately, the…
The Morning Brew is a great news source for developers for many years now. In its most recent post it mentioned an extension for VisualStudio 2010 and 2012 called IntelliCommand that implements something that I had wanted for quite some time: Some kind of dynamic help for hotkeys. IntelliCommand shows a popup…
Hi,
I have a (rather large) application that I have written in C++ and until recently it has been running fine outside of visualstudio from the release build. However, now, whenever I run it it says "Unhandled exception at 0x77cf205b in myprog.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation writing location 0x45000200.",…
What is the proper way to call an Async framework component - wait for an answer and then return the value. AKA contain the entire request/response in a single method.
Example code:
public class Experiment
{
public Experiment()

public string GetSomeString()
{

I recently read a article about c#-5 and new $ nice asynchronous programming. I see it works greate in windows application. The question came to me before is if this feature can increase ASP.Net performance?
consider this code:
public T GetData()
{
var d = GetSomeData();
return d;
}
and

I have a simple web page in ASP.NET / C#. Currently to fully render the data I require calling a block of code that runs on background threads and can take multiple minutes to complete. I've got it to the point (using the async attribute on the page declaration) to execute and return fine with the html…

Every time i open VisualStudio 2008 my Toolbox and Solution explorer is sized to a minimum, so i have to resize them every time i start Visualstudio which is kinda annoying.
So is there anyway to set them to a default size, or set them to have the same size every time i start Visual studio?

How many times you wanted to move 2 lines by cut and pasting them, but the line you cut last is actually a blank line and your actual code is removed from the clipboard? VisualStudio 2010 has an option that keeps cutting blank lines from overwriting the clipboard. Go and uncheck this one: Tools »…
