What I hate about VS.NET

D&D rox. Too bad MS has made it such a worthless PITA for so many years. The sidebars in InterDev (and now VS.NET) were long overdue...

Alright, that's simple collaboration put into practice, but the task items can easily be unrelated to the actual checkins/checkouts, hence the trouble. That said, it is probably not a concern in small teams. But for 150+ teams, ... aie! aie! aie!

We use the commitinfo script (CVS has some script on the CVSROOT dir that act as "events" or "delegates", and commitinfo is a pre-commit event to validate a commit) to check if the proper Task ID (communication with Exchange is made via simple HTTP) was set on the commit comments, the Task on the Exchange is updated. Again, a simple script solved this problem for us.

Uhm. I'm not using the .NET Framework, but I do C++ programming with VS.NET. Am I the official C++ bastard? :) -- Nicotine free: day 3

For the past 5-6 years I have been editing my files and when the file is checked in I type the first character, it bleeped, threw up the checkout box, I hit enter and typed the rest in. Now, I start typing and all the damn text goes into their checkout edit box, including the CR. I would like to shoot the idiot who thought of that. Its Ok if you realise the file is checked out, but if you have a whole load of files open you cant tell which are checked out and which are not. Why didnt they give any feedback, this is VISUAL Studio, maybe a red LH window border or something so I can at least see that a dialog is going to pop up...
Hell I thought it was funny .....
Yeah I hate when that happens. Specially when you are tyring to fix some sort of a production bug under tremendous pressure and that damn box shows up and hitting enter does nothing. Drives me nuts. I almost always hand code, so don't really miss the old wizards in VS 6.0 and have no clue about the new ones in the .Net IDE. Another thing that drives me nuts and actually has nothing to do with the .Net IDE is that my stupid antivirus software has a script blocker. So I cannot hit help or else the IDE crashes. It also crashes each time I shut down the IDE. Shutting down the script blocker does not seem to help. I have to turn it off, tell it not to start automatically, and then reboot. What a pain. Stupid McAfee......
