I found so far iCode as a code Editor.
Remotedesktop, and mides IDE (PHP).
Goodreader for my dev. Ebooks.
Are there any other must haves for developers?
I have the following code:
SPSiteDataQuery query = new SPSiteDataQuery();
query.ViewFields = "<FieldRef Name=\"UniqueId\" />";
query.Webs = "<Webs Scope=\"SiteCollection\" />";
query.Query = "<Where<Eq><FieldRef Name='MyCustomField' /><Value Type='Boolean'>1</Value></Eq></Where>";
query.Lists = "<Lists BaseType=\"1\" />";
DataTable results = site.RootWeb.GetSiteData(query);
This searches all the Document Libraries in the site collection, but I want to search all the Lists as well. Is there a way to set the Lists property to search both at the same time?
I find that I now often work with code bases that have different amounts of indentation. Some use 2 spaces, some use 4 space, some even use tabs! Once in a while, I have to share code between these codebases, or, sometimes I use an incorrect amount of indentation by mistake. Is there a tool or a text editor feature that will convert between different amounts of indentation?
I used it before, and was reminded of it when someone asked about a tool to strip unsused CSS from a stylsheet.
I went back to the link, but it's gone, what happened to it? Is it gone forever or does anyone know of a backup? Or a similar tool that can still check your CSS against the HTML and strip orphan CSS.
Thanks.

If you are getting a message when you start the Compute Emulator “Systray already running…” from within Visual Studio one fix is to check what the image name is loading is. For some reason, on 2 of my machines the image was loading with the 8.3 format. This caused the logic in the VS tools to not find the process. So, to fix, I just did a little copy/rename magic. C:\Program Files\Windows Azure SDK\v1.3\bin>copy csmonitor.exe csmonitor-a.exe
1 file(s) copied.
C:\Program Files\Windows Azure SDK\v1.3\bin>del csmonitor.exe
C:\Program Files\Windows Azure SDK\v1.3\bin>copy csmonitor-a.exe csmonitor.exe
1 file(s) copied.
If you bring up task manager and see something like CSMON~1.EXE in the Image Name column, you probably have this issue.
Is there a refactoring tool available for SQL (TSQL in particular). Is there any tool that can do automatic simplification of SQL?
I have a set of views where only the top two are used, and I'd like to refactor this into only two views, hence 10+ queries into two queries.
I'm considering how to do automatic bug tracking and as part of that I'm wondering what is available to match source code line numbers (or more accurate numbers mapped from instruction pointers via something like addr2line) in one version of a program to the same line in another. (Assume everything is in some kind of source control and is available to my code)
The simplest approach would be to use a diff tool/lib on the files and do some math on the line number spans, however this has some limitations:
It doesn't handle cross file motion.
It might not play well with lines that get changed
It doesn't look at the information available in the intermediate versions.
It provides no way to manually patch up lines when the diff tool gets things wrong.
It's kinda clunky
Before I start diving into developing something better:
What already exists to do this?
What features do similar system have that I've not thought of?
Using the Team Foundation Server Integration Tools Platform. Versions: ClearCase: 7.1.1.2 Team Foundation Server: 2012 RTM Integration Tools: 2.2.20314.1 OS: Windows 2008 R2 ENT SP1 I was able to do a simple example migration of a few files by using the following approach: Using a dynamic view Creating a view shortcut drive (i.e. Z:\) Running the tools as a UI client (not as a windows service) Running the tools UI in user mode (do not “Run as Administrator”) Using the CC detailed history adapter Selecting the view shortcut drive (i.e. Z) on the Tools UI Connect to CC dialog Selecting the “Detect Changes in CC” option on the Tools UI Connect to CC dialog Changing the DisableTargetAnalysis value to True on the Tools UI configuration view I have yet to perform actual migrations for real projects, but will update this blog as I do.
Is there a tool available that can scan code and check for possible null reference exceptions, i.e. where there is no code to check for null before calling a method / accessing a property?
Art of Test produced a nice UI testing tool for free -- WebAii Framework-- that I've been using to add client-side DOM unit tests to my projects. Recently they merged with Telerik and it's now a commercial product. From free to $1500 is suddenly very expensive. Does anybody know if the community edition is still available, or even the last free version is available for download? At least I can finish off with that.
I noticed a rise in the number of developers (mostly doing web development) using Apple machines.
Does Mac OS offer a better environment for programming or is it because of the hardware?
What are the reasons?
I just came back to C++ Builder after 5 or more years away. I seem to remember a nice tool where I could drag its pointer over the GUI of my running application and get lots of info about what was pointed at - handle, size, text, parent, children, etc
IIRC, if the exe include debug info I could also get the actual variable name as used in the source.
Does anyone know what program I am talking about? Thanks
My multithreaded Java program crashes because it runs out of heap space and I don't think it should. Assuming the culprit is unintentional object retention, what's a good free tool to investigate what objects are being unintentionally retained?
My IDE is Eclipse.

Does anyone know of a stand-alone tool for C# code cleaning/auditing that can run outside of Visual Studio IDE so as to be part of a build. Or if that isn't possible can someone provide some guidance as to how to make Visual Studio part of a build process -- by that I mean it would be nice to run the IDE's Sort and Remove unused using statements on all files as part of the build, but even better would be an exe that can read the .sln, or .csproj and do the job as part of build system.
Thanks,

I am interested in the following features: Code highlighting, Intellisense, Refactorings, Code navigation (Go to Definition etc.).
If this functionality is missing from Visual Studio 2010 maybe Microsoft is planning to add these features in the future or there are community project to develop IronRuby tooling add-in?
Hi!
Is there a tool which allow to convert graphical representation of equestion to that equestion ? (Graphical representation to aproxx. math equestion)
I recently had an incident where the email details of a Sharepoint user were changed in Active Directory. These changes were not transferred into SharePoint and I had a problem in one of my web parts which uses the SPUser object to get the users email address.
Is there a way to configure Sharepoint to synchronise such data automatically?
Vim is my editor of choice, and I feel I am above average in my use of it. I do recognize, though, that the feature list of vim is huge. With this in mind, I was wondering what features you vim users out there use on a regular basis.
I found OWSTIMER consume a lot of memory during create personal sites. (I have to pre-create personal sites for many users)
After googling I found some suggestion to restart OWSTIMER but it’ll grow up again after create several personal sites. So I have to restart OWSTIMER every hour.
Did you know any impact of restart OWSTIMER every hour?
Thank you
What things, methods, workflows, etc. can you not live without today and wish you had learned of a long time ago?
For example, learning some basic Ubuntu and using my debugger properly in the IDE have made a huge difference to me and are together probably the two things that I most wish I had done a long time ago. Using a debugger just seems like common sense now to many of us, but to those that are in a early stage of their career it might not. (I'm a good example of that.)
Hi,
what are the differences between the SQL Server 2008 Management Studio BASIC and SQL Server 2008 Management Studio EXPRESS?
Do they are the same?
THANKS!
