How to hide different Viual Studio Projects from each other in one TFS Team Project with areas?

Hi,
at the moment I try to set up a "good" architecture for projects in TFS for our company.
As often mentioned in TFS documentation we try to reduce the number of Team projects in our company which is organized in different business units (BUs).
One great Team project shall contain a number of different Visual Studio projects, each one belonging to a separate BU.
The grouping is as follows:
Global Team project
       Business Unit A
                     Visual Studio Project A1
                     Visual Studio Project A2
       Business Unit B
                     Visual Studio Project B1
                     Visual Studio Project B2
The programmers in business unit A must not see the Visual Studio projects of Business Unit B, but both groups (A an B) use the same process model (that is the reason why we try to group them in on team project).
I try to put all the projects from both BUs in one TFS team project and separate them logically by an Area hierarchy like mentioned above.
But areas only separate work items from each other, not Visual Studio projects.
In Source Control Explorer I can only assign security issues on team project level (Global Team Project), not on business unit level.
So every developer in BU A can see the Visual Studio projects in BU B...
How can I model these dependencies?
Regards and thanks
Lothar

Hi Lothar,
Thanks for your post.
What’s the version of your TFS and VS?
In Source Control Explorer, you can right-click on Business Unit A folder and select
Advanced>>Security… to deny other group(s)’ access permissions on this folder. Then use the same way to set permissions on Business Unit B folder too.

Download a Project file for Visual Studio regarding the Kinect for Windows v2? Getting Started with Kinect Development in Visual Studio

I am currently trying to make an application for Kinect for Windows v2 but I am entirely new to Visual Studio and Kinect development and could use some help getting started. I honestly have no idea where or how to start and I figured the easiest thing would
be to obtain a simple project file and examine how it works myself, but I have been unable to find one. The easiest thing would be if I could obtain a project file for Visual Studio that is an application which overlays the Skeletal model over people in real
time, though similar project files would also be appreciated. The app I am making largely involves things similar to overlaying the skeletal model on bodies so this would get me off to a great start and show me how the code is laid out within visual studio
simultaneously. (I would prefer the code to be in C# if that is possible but other languages also work).
I have checked out some of the guides for kinect development but they all assume you know how visual studio works so I cannot get very far in them. Thus if you know of a good guide to get me started with visual stuido AND the Kinect then I would be glad
to here that as well.
Alternatively, and I know this is not the right place for this, I have Matlab, which I know works for the Kinect v1 but can't find support for it regarding the v2, so if you could point me in the right direction on how to get it to work with the Kinect v2
THAT would also work incredibly well as I am much more familiar with Matlab.
I already have Visual Studio Ultimate 2013 installed, as well as the Kinect SDKv2.0, the physical Kinect for Windows v2, and my laptop meets all of the requirements for development so those are not issues.
Thanks in advance for any advice you can give me!

Hi Jicnon,
Thank you for posting in MSND forum.
Since this forum is discuss: Visual Studio WPF/SL Designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation and Help System, and Visual Studio Editor. About your issue, I think that it is
more related to the Kinect for Windows v2, so I suggest you can post this issue directly to Kinect for Windows v2 SDK forum:https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=kinectv2sdk
,maybe you will get better support.
In addition, I find a similar thread about your issue, maybe you will get some useful message.

How do I make Visual Studio 2013 use my dedicated graphics card instead of integrated graphics on my laptop?

I am using Alienware 13 as a portable workstation. I do game development on Unreal Engine 4 using Visual Studio 2013. The issue I am having is that when I want to debug codes in Visual Studio 2013, it launches Unreal Engine 4 through the debugger and uses
the integrated graphics card rather than my dedicated graphics card, which is an nVida Geforce 860M.
When I wanted to change the settings in the NVidia Control Panel, I see this:
The drop-down menu is grayed out, so I cannot select to change the graphics card to my dedicated card.
What should I do? How do I make it so that Visual Studio uses my dedicated card? Thanks in advance.

Hi tom_mai78101,
Thank you for posting in the MSDN forum.
It seems that it is not the correct forum for this issue, since this forum is to discuss Visual Studio WPF/SL Designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation and Help System, and Visual Studio Editor.
As you said that you want to change the setting so that Visual Studio uses your dedicated card in NVidia Control Panel, since this NVidia Control Panel is third-party tool, we are not support it. So please post this issue this issue directly
to this NVidia Control Panel Official website:
http://www.nvidia.com/object/nvidia-communities.html , you will get better support.
Thanks for your understanding.

How do we use Script (batch file with msbuild/msbuild project) to build Cordova Project created with Visual Studio Tools for Apache Cordova?

I use Visual Studio to create Cordova projects. I need to build Cordova projects using msbuild and buildbot via script for my project but I can find only information about how VS combine with Cordova CLI to build multi device hybrid application.

Hi Samseth,
Yes, correct, the only thing we can find on the MSDN is:
Deploy and Run Your App
And that's the reason why Visual Studio Tools for Apache Cordova existing.
I think you may get more detail compile information from here:

The project builds fine in VS 2013 (since its a new project).
It seems that it is not recognizing all the packages. How do I fix this problem?

It doesn't work for me either. It's an MVC 5.2.2.0 project straight out of the Wizard. It's part of a solution with other projects which appear to be working. I tried configuring NuGet to download missing assemblies on the build machine as it suggested on
some other sites. That didn't help. According to the list of installed software on the Hosted Build Controller, I don't see MVC explicitly listed. (getting-started/hosted-build-controller-..) page in the TFS project site.
It definitely doesn't work. I'm trying out Visual Studio Premium 2013 and Team Foundation Service on the 90 day trial offer. I can't find any mention of an MVC restriction. I don't want to have to include the package binaries in source control.
Edit: I tried a standalone MVC 5 project and it worked fine on the Hosted Build Controller. If you add an MVC 5 project using the wizard to an existing solution with other projects, you get the errors below. So it isn't the Hosted Build Controller.
Strange.

It seems that my working stand alone project has the dlls in the packages folder tree added to source control. Whereas in the composite project, only the corresponding .xml files are added to source control. So with the standalone project, the build server
is locating these dlls and using them.

How do I write a Dll to perform a union in visual studio for use in LabVIEW?

Hello,
I'm new to writing dll(s). I'm attempting to write a Dll that will perform a union on a number from LabVIEW and then return the result to LabVIEW for my use. I've been struggling with this for a few days and I'm finally giving in to get some help.
This screenshot is the only description that I have to help me with what I am trying to do. Basically, I'm trying to pass a value that will be different based on a measured partial discharge value. In the screen below, the value used is "1061111989" This number is my reading. I need to pass this value from labVIEW into my dll to perform a union on it.
In my Dll, I need to write MeterReading.IntVal's value and get the MeterReading.FloatVal back.
I have Visual Studio 2012 Full and LabVIEW 2012 Full, I'm LabVIEW CLAD and I've written 17 test floors in the US to date; however, I've never had any need of Visual Studio until now. Can anyone help me out with this?
Thanks in advance, -Chris

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Sometimes, I try to solve simple issues in very complicated ways. What got me so confused here was the solution from the engineer of the device that I am reading from was using a union to get the value. I'm not familiar with unions so I thought that it was some structure that was not creatable in LabVIEW. Anyways, a typecast to single point gave me the proper value. Thank you.

How to create a site column through Visual Studio 2010?

I was trying to create lists, content type and site columns through Visual Studio 2010. But I could not figure out how to add site column? What item do I need to add for this and what kind of coding is to be done?

Try this
1. Create a Empty project in Visual studio.
2.The Empty SharePoint Project template does not include any Features in the Features folder. To add a new Feature to this project, right -click the Features folder, and click Add Feature. This adds a new Feature component to the folder; double – click the
Feature1 icon in Solution Explorer to modify the Feature ’ s
metadata using the Feature designer. The Title and Description values appear on the Features pages in Site settings. It is a good idea to make these values
descriptive so that administrators will know what they are adding to the site when they activate the feature.
The feature ’ s scope determines where the feature can be activated within SharePoint. Please Note – Certain components, such as site columns, content types, Master pages, and Page Layouts, are installed at the site collection level and made available to all
sites within the collection. These components require that the scope for the feature be set to “ Site. ”
3. Next, add a new item to the project (Right – click project name ➪ Add ➪ New Item) and select the Empty Element template from the Add New Item dialog box.
The Empty Element template is an XML fi le where you can enter CAML Field definitions.
Following is what you will add in your elements.xml file –
< Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/" >
< Field ID="{76C140E1-D827-433B-AD38-257F9594B846}"
Name="CustomCol"
DisplayName="My Custom Site Column"
Group="Custom group"
Type="Text"
Required="FALSE"/ >
< Field ID="{5F516D92-969C-4661-81B9-C9210E2A2FDC}"
Name="Choice Type"
DisplayName="My Choice Type"
Group="Custom group"
Type="Choice"
Required="FALSE" >
< CHOICES >
< CHOICE > Medical < /CHOICE >
< CHOICE > Dental < /CHOICE >
< CHOICE > Vision < /CHOICE >
< CHOICE > Insurance < /CHOICE >
< /CHOICES >
< /Field >
< /Elements >
4. To deploy the Site Columns defined in the Elements file, right – click the project name in the Visual Studio Solution Explorer, and select Deploy. This will deploy the solution file to the solution store and activate the Feature in the targeted site collection.

How do I debug designer code in visual studio 2013

VS crashes whenever I try and add my custom control to a form. How do I debug this situation.

Hi trogan，
If you add a simple custom control, how about the result?
Actually it is hard for us to find the real solution directly for the VS crashed issue, but we could provide some suggestions to narrow down this issue.
Like this case I met before:
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/75a1c5d1-6baf-4b92-8fc8-7d87be09cbe1/visual-studio-2008-designer-crashes-when-dragging-a-usercontrol-from-toolbox-onto-a-form?forum=visualstudiogeneral
If possible, you could refer to it even if it is about the VS2008 crash. At least, we would make sure that whether it is your VS or the specific project issue or others.

Problems adding a custom SSRS (PolygonsCRI demo project) control to Visual Studio 2012 toolbox

I've been trying to create a custom control in SSRS using the PolygonsCRI example. I've finally got the solution to compile in Dot Net 4.5 under Visual Studio 2012 targeting x86 architecture. (x86 seems to be the only way to compile without complaints
about architecture mismatch involving some of the key reporting DLLs.) I'm running VS2012 Premium, version 11.0.61030.00 Update 4.
I still can't use it in the Polygons demo reporting project.
I can add the DLL to the toolbox but all I get is a red rectangle and the message 'The custom report item type PolygonsDesigner is not installed'.
Suggestions? I'm out of ideas at this point.

Hello,
You have "add DLL to Toolbox"?
See Jazz Up Your Data Using Custom Report Items In SQL Server Reporting Services => Deploying CRI: You have to Register you CRI in "RSReportDesigner.config" file.

How do I fix this error in Visual Studio: The specified command ID does not exist

The entire error message is:
Error occurred in deployment step 'Retract Solution': The specified command ID 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.SharePoint.Commands.DoesSolutionWithIdExist' does not match any available SharePoint remote commands.
Parameter name: commandId
I'm developing an app for SharePoint Online using Visual Studio 2012. This error started after I created a developer site with "Spanish" as the language. Then I add "Spanish" to the "Supported Locale" in the appmanifest.xml
and tried to debug on the Spanish developer site.

Hi,
Based on the error message, it seems the specific command ID not exists in the “Microsoft.VisualStudio.SharePoint.Commands” namespace.
For a better troubleshooting, I suggest you do as the followings:
1. Add languages to Supported Locales in AppManifest.xml.
2. Try to debug you app project to see if there are something wrong in your code.
Here are some detailed articles for your reference:
