I can't tell if you are joking or not... so I'll bite. I think it is just a misplaced hyphen... it should have been co-workers instead of cow-orkers.

I thought that cow-orkers are like co-workers except they like to stand around and chew all day instead of actually working...

...make sure it compiles. I'm okay with the occasional syntax error, but when the entire project has bad/missing references and dependencies, incorrect versioning, syntax errors, etc. it just pisses me off. I just spent 2 hours trying to get a VS.NET solution to compile after getting the latest version from SourceSafe (which I hate, but that's a topic for another thread). A lesson for the rookies... The only step involved in compiling a solution/project after getting it from your favorite source code control system should be clicking on Build | Build Solution. Period. No monkeying around with the references, hunting down dependencies, fixing syntax errors, etc.
I use CVS, not integrated with VS. I frequently forget to check in new files or new projects. I've learned to check everything out in a different location and rebuild it to see what I forgot. Marc MyXaml Advanced Unit Testing YAPO

It's not just rookies that do that. :doh: I keep a "code police" hat and a well sharpened sense of humour to hand for exactly those occasions...;) Anna :rose: Riverblade Ltd - Software Consultancy Services Anna's Place | Tears and Laughter "Be yourself - not what others think you should be" - Marcia Graesch "Anna's just a sexy-looking lesbian tart" - A friend, trying to wind me up.

In WinCVS, sort on status, filter on file extensions, and show toggle between tree mode and flat mode once in a while. Then you'll see/find new files. Toggle "show committable files only", and then you'll see all modified files. -- I got nasty habits. I take tea at three. -- Mick Jagger I blog too now[^]

Now, the question we all want answered is now: Do you get to arrest those who commit crimes against the code? :rolleyes: I wish I could have more control at work. There are several articles in Sweden's laws that prohibit me from doing my work. :sigh: :-D -- I got nasty habits. I take tea at three. -- Mick Jagger I blog too now[^]

Not exactly...I just usually hover over the person responsible and drop decreasingly subtle hints about the level of testing they're doing before checking anything into the database. If they then hurredly check in code without adding a comment about what it is, I'll wind them up about that too. ;) Seriously though, there are occasions when just about all of us does this through one minor oversight or another, so I try not to take it too seriously. If there is a real problem with understanding however, I'll usually try to explain alternative ways of working which would reduce the risk of the problm recurring.
