Visual Studio :: To Submit Bug Reports On BIDS 2008 R2 As VS2010 Bugs?
Jun 14, 2010
I installed VS2010.Since I needed SSAS, SSRS, SSIS proj and I could not tind them fast I installed VSTS2008SP1 and MS SQL Server 2008 R2 (+client tools).How do I create BI projs in VS2010?
MS SQL Server 2008 R2 setup installed BIDS but this link opens VSTS2008SP1.I'd like to submit bug reports on BI proj,they are mostly on GUI, i.e. BIDS2008R2, is it or VSTS2008SP1 in my case?Now, https://connect.microsoft.com/directory/
permits bugs on VS only of version 2010 and .NET 4.0.
But the most recent MSSQLServer2008R2 settup installs BIDS, akaVS2008.Does it install .NET 4.0 (seems like no), or VS2010 as BIDS (seems like no)?Where to report bugs on GUI used for BI (SSRS, SSAS, SSIS) projs, i.e. on BIDS2008R2, i.e. VSTS2008SP1 in my case?
Once more:the most recent MSSQLServer setup installs VS2008 but the bugs are not accepted on it.Also feedback on MSSQLServer2008 does not have category BIDS or VS. Or BIDS/VS is under "Tools(SSMS, Agent, Profiler, Migration, etc.)" there?
On my development box I have VS 2010 Ultimate (64bit), SQL 2008 Express, and SQL 2008 DEV R2 all installed on the same machine. I can access either SQL with Management Studio R2 but I am having problems getting VS to open MDF files in the App_Data folder.It is trying to open them with SQL Express rather than the full version of SQL.I get an error about verion 661 is incompatable with the version installed which is 655.So what I need help with is, I guess, How do I add a program in VS for "open with" to use SQL 2008 R2? The present default for MDF files is "SqlExpress File Bootstrapper (Default)".I can't figure out where to point for it to open.I have considered uninstalling or upgrading the Express edition.
Don't know if this is my machine getting back at me for all the times I've threatened to throw it through the wall, but VWD has a nasty habit of changing code on me. Weirdnees that I have noticed:- It will arbitrarily move the cursor position to a random location when I am typing.- It randomly partially removes a label from my footer div. I usually don't catch this one until I try to open the page.- It has a penchant for adding a random number of line breaks, at random. Right before sending this post it added about 200 line breaks instantly for no apparent reason.- After changing a property value for a text box, it deleted every control from the related view panel in a multiview control.- Changing something in the design view doesn't always change the related code in the source view (such as when adding or deleting controls).
Only the .aspx pages seem to be affected. I've not noticed any shenanigans in the code-behind pages. No one page is more affected than another, and it occurs across projects.I recently upgraded to VWD 2010 from VWD 2008 (that was painful). The 2008 version had some of the same quirks, but not to the extent of 2010. Has anyone else seen this kind of bizarre behaviour?
Im working on Visual Studio 2008 to develop a web application in asp.net. if I add a crystal report file (.rpt) in my project, I see only hexadecimal code.
I wonder how to add a project template called Intelligence Reports, something like that, to Visual studio 2008. I have SQL 2008 installed. Do I need to install some updates to get Intelligence Reports template to Visual studio 2008 ?
I'd like to learn more about MS Business Intelligence Development Studio. I'm doing this on my own, so I'd like to keep my software costs down. It's my understanding that BIDS comes with the download for SQL Server, but is used in Visual Studio (by creatign a BIDS project). Is this accurate? My question is - Is it possible to get a working copy of BIDS by downloading SQL Server Express and Visual Studio Express?
Is there any tool for Visual Studio 2008 which can reformat ASPX code to make it more presentable (eg insert line breaks, format the lines so they wrap when necessary, etc)?
At my old job, i had a report server that was very stable. I was using VS2005, and when i added a crystal report to the website, there was a vb file generated for the report. At my current job, i am using VS2008, and the VB file is no longer generated for the report, and there is no "Run Custom Tool" command when you right click on the report in the solution explorer.I would really just like to test the reports where i can declare the report as a variable and launch the report like i used to, but now i seem to be forced to use the ReportSource control along with the ReportViewer control....and the results are sporadic at best. I get very random "report source invalid", "load report failed", and other undescriptive errors. this is unsatisfactory for these .Is there a configuration thing I am missing, or will I need to go back to VS2005, re-add all the files to a VS2005 project, and start all over, just in order to test and see if maybe it's the reportsource control causing all of my current problems?
I'm struggling with this problem about 2 weeks and still cannot find the resolution.I was developed a .Net application with visual studio 2008 and using crystal report to generate report.It is working fine in my local machine. However, after I deployed the application to web server with microsoft server 2003 64bits server. The report cannot open and I get this error The type initialize or 'crystaldecisions.crystalreports.engine.reportdocument' threw an exception. I try to install the redistribution package from C:Program FilesMicrosoft SDKsWindowsv6.0ABootstrapperPackagesCrystalReports10_5 but it doesn't work.
Before you start using VS2010 RC, knowing that the RC version was launched with a serious bug as reported on the link below.The bug is related to the use of controls within containers in an ASP.Net application, and like almost every ASP.Net application has any container, it is impossible to migrate an application VS 2008 to VS 2010.Before you start any work or migrate to the IDE of VS2010 RC, you know this bug.
I know for those who dont use it may think this is minor, but it appears that VS2010 has done away with the "Brief" style editor. Brief style editing makes me way more productive since I am one that tends to spend most of my time in the code. Does anyone know how to turn on Brief style editing in VS 2010 or are there any plans to add it in?
if i add the SQL Database to the solution (in APP_Data folder) what are the enhancments provided by the VS2010 for it?is there any mechanism to synchronize this DB with the SQL Server DB? or can i use the SQL SERVER DB in my project which remains physically in the APP_DATA folder and SQL SERVER as well?
can Visual Studio 2008 be All-In-One tool to integrate source code continuously from team members, build, unit test?
Having used Visual Studio Team Edition 2005, unit testing each method within VS itself. I strongly believe that it is feasible to add-on tools. Example ankhsvn tool to use SVN from Visual studio [URL]
In my investigating i have come across number of tools(shown below) to use with Visual Studio 2008 professional
Development tool:- Visual Studio 2008 professional using Subversion as source control tool. Continuous Integration:- Hudson or Cruise control Build tool:- NAnt Testing:- NUnit, Selinium As Visual Studio 2008 can be used for unit testing I think NUnit is out of consideration.
In the same way i would like to have any other tools/add-ons to Visual studio to implement continuous integration, building and unit testing. This process should be automated such a way source code between team members is continuously integrated, built and unit testing is done as configured.
Objective is to use few number of tools as add-on to Visual Studio or achieve most from Visual studio itself (example unit testing). Visual Studio should be all in one tool.
I am aware that Team Foundation Server best suits my requirement, but it is out of scope due to its cost.
I have VS 2008 Professional Edition.....I want to test a function like this:
public int getIdByName(string name) { var item=from x in DATAB where x.name=name select x.id; . . return idValue; }
now I test end I have:
[TestMethod()] public getIdByNameTest() { string name="Bob" int expected = 1; int actual; actual = ClassGET.getIdByName(name); Assert.AreEqual(expected, actual); Assert.Inconclusive("Verify the correctness of this test method."); }
The error in "test run" is:
Failed ......[Class]....... Test method threw exception: System.ArgumentException: The specified named connection is either not found in the configuration that is not for use with the EntityClient provider or thought is invalid
How can I ensure that web application converted from 2003 visual studio to 2008 visual studio
to have two files as it is when create a web file in visual studio 2008.The web application is in Chsarp. I have converted these filesfrom 2003 to 2008 but they still have three files each.
can someone recommend me of an online source(version) control integrated with visual studio 2010(free if there is or chargable), something like Microsoft visual source safe hosted in a static IP.
I'm trying to publish my mvc3 project to a web host server, I right clicked my project and selected publish, there i entered the ftp information, VS2010 uploaded the files to the ftp, but when i try to surf to the remote site i get an error "Directory Listing Denied". all guides I found requierd an installation on the web host side, is there no way to just upload the site like in classic asp?
I am trying to figure out how to use the web deploy feature in VS2010.I installed the web deploy on a 2k8 server, started the services and went to try a deploy. VS2010 is tellingh me the remote certificate is invalid according to the validation process.
I am trying this on a local VM i made so I could see if it works or not.
i have been trying the new VS2010, but i am having trouble to add to the dropdown list of frameworks the .net framework 2.0, i have installed the .net framework 2.0 and also the SDK, but nothing seems to make it to appear in the VS2010 multitargeting dropdown list. Can somebody give me the reason of this, what do i need to do?
