  • deployment of c# prject.........
    T The Man from U N C L E

    It depends what you are trying to do. If it is a web project, then you can right click on the project and deploy it to the web server, or add a web deployment project to create an installer package to deploy it to somewhere else. It if is a windows forms or wpf project the your choices are ClickOnce deployment (vs2010 includes a wizard for this), installer package (again vs2010 has a wizard to help you create one), or even just send the user the exe to run as is. In fact for all these vs2010 has a wizard to help you. So... Step one - start up vs2010 and see what you can do. Step two - use the wizards. Step three - when you have tried and got stuck, then ask for advice, showing what you have tried.

    I think someone at MSHQ just got carried away with big team mentality. VS 2010 has a much simpler model where the price scales up with the scope of the install, with a separate track for dedicated testers. It's all about the money really.

  • Stupid Intel!
    T The Man from U N C L E

    I agree. Especially useful for laptops I think, after all you buy the cheap laptop because you don't have the cash, then have to buy a whole new laptop because you just can't upgrade the processor without busting the motherboard. This way you can upgrade the laptop without even opening the box. Desktops are easier to upgrade though.

    Using a phone at all (unless with a hands-free kit) while driving has been illegal since December 2003 in the UK. So voice to text and text to voice apps should have been around since then, but haven't been as far as I know.

  • Choice of .NET Framework version
    T The Man from U N C L E

    I had an issue recently in 2.0 that was fixed in service pack 1. I then found that 2.0 SP1 is bundled as part of 3.5 SP1 so if I was starting a new project I would not bother with anything lower than 3.5 SP1 If you want a widest potential audience for your application, it is probably best to stick to 2.0 however, as it is part of 3.0 and 3.5, and therefore will be on more machines than any other version. The only versions worth upgrading from, and it is an upgrade not just recompile, is from 1.0 and 1.1. Even Microsoft are not supporting them much these days.

    .NET (Core and Framework) csharp dotnet winforms question announcement

  • StyleCop - Aarrgh
    T The Man from U N C L E

    Got some interesting responses out of it though. MS does have some good explanations of the reasoning behind each rule, and clearly you have to chose the set for you as some rules don't sit well together. Customising the rules was the second thing I did. It is however a bit depressing that creating a default windows forms app in VS 2010, with the default auto created main form, will give so many warnings with the default settings. Over a hundred. You would have thought that MS supplied templates would match the MS supplied style rules. Oh well.

  • StyleCop - Aarrgh
    T The Man from U N C L E

    I know, I can disable rules but that rather defeats the point. I started from the point of how can I be expected to match the rules if the Visual Studio generated code itself does not. As to coding and brackets, I prefer, the following, though I know personal preference and all that.

    switch (foo){
    case Bar:
    RunBar();
    break;
    case Foobar:
    RunFoo();
    RunBar();
    break;
    }

    In this example Style cop would prefer the following:

    switch (foo)
    {
    case Bar:
    RunBar();
    break;
    case Foobar:
    RunFoo();
    RunBar();
    break;
    }

    Who can really say which is more readable, though I would use spaces if pasting on CP because it is easier to type in the editor, that does not allow you to type tabs.
