It is currently possible to check in files that fail the checkin policies of a team project by also checking in files from other team projects at the same time. See http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/726309/custom-checkin-policy-not-being-applied for more details about this currently "by design" "feature".

In Visual Studio we have the possibility to share our settings via a network drive. The only problem is, that if you do not have a home server, you need to synchronize the settings by yourself via i.e. USB Dtick between your work-PC, home-PC and notebook. It would be great, if we'd get a possibility to save the settings on SkyDrive, to allow all VS instances on each computer we use, to use the same settings.

When comparing builds in Microsoft Test Manager to see affected work items, you one can only pick from builds that haven't been deleted by retention policies.
This often leads to an incomplete list of affected work items since, in our case, retention policies only keep the 10 latest builds.
This could be solved by MTM querying the database for builds ignoring the flag for "deleted".

During upgrade to Tfs2011 of a custom project template, importcommonprocessconfig failed with an error indicating that some states on item types were not found while the states were defined and imported without errors

The cause seemed to originate in the fact that the state transitions in the wit type definition referred to user groups that were not available (the server was not in the domain)

After removing the "for" attribute from the transition element the importcommonprocessconfig worked fine.

"Color.Black.ToBrush" as an alternative to "New SolidBrush(Color.Black)"

I hope return value optimization can be optionally turned on/off (or at least turned on) under Debug mode; Currently it is by default enabled under Release but no way to turn it on under Debug with the debug information viewable while debugging...

#include <vector>
std::vector<double> get(){
std::vector<double> a(10);
return a;
}

int main(){
std::vector<double> a = get();
return 0;
}

Actually, there is no easy way to precisely identify the changeset from which a branch has been created.
We can view the hierarchy of course but not the starting point without perform a sql query in the project collection database.

MS SQLServer ,To add facility like Table column affected based on Trigger or Application or Manual

For Example :

Table affected Categories:

Manual ---Update the rows value in New query window

Trigger ---Insert value based on trigger of the Table

Application --Insert value come from Application . Any framework..

Table Name is Employee

Column Names
ID EmpName Salary Tablevalue affected

1 Arun 1000 Manual

2 raja 2000 Trigger

3 kamal 3000 Application

4 Guru 300000 Manual

Expecting silver light debugger, java script debugger and windows mobile 7.5 debugger with visual studio 2011. It should be great help for developers.

there is a big gap in SQL server syntax and .net querying language.
please provide facility in both visual studio and sql server management.

Design view is unavailable for x64 and ARM target platforms when the document contains custom elements (XAML with a user control, for example).

PLease simplify registration for Visual Studio C++ express at this time it is impossible! Just try following the reccomended route and it ends in frustration. You wand students to use your products then why be obstructive!

similar at the method documentation, (using ///), add something else like an alert the user make and other using the class will see like the following.

<alert>This Method will purge all attributes!</alert>
public void DeleteDataObject (int objectId) { }

when ever the method is used the user sees a small icon alarming him of the tricky behaviour of the method, constructor, or getter and setter

Currently Debug->Modules window doesn't allow neither to be filtered (e.g. by name and wildcard) or grouped (e.g. by process),
nor columns to be truly hidden (columns' width is decreased to 0 instead).

There references show for a project in Solution Explorer shows every dll file. If the dll is from a Nuget package, it would be simpler to list the Nuget package instead.

MS Ribbon WPF Control support for Coded UI Testing in VS Premium. the organisaiton i work for has purchased VS premium and used the MS Ribbon expecting the MS Ribbon to be supported.

JSDoc is a power inline documentation.
It support IDE such as:
- Eclipse (WST, DLTK)
- IntelliJ IDEA
- NetBeanse
e.t.c.

IntelliSeanse be more powerful!
