Login dialog when using the Team Foundation Server API

Suresh Behera — Fri, 06 Feb 2009 21:22:51 GMT

nwc = new NetworkCredential(tfsuid, TFSPass, TFSDomain);
tfs = new TeamFoundationServer(TFSServerUrl, new UICredentialsProvider());

tfs.EnsureAuthenticated();

EnsureAuthenticated does not work for web,You need to have customize dialog box to accept uid and password.

Few use full links for above topic…

TFS Basic programming Step.

Suresh Behera — Wed, 04 Feb 2009 23:16:00 GMT

I was looking at some tfs programming c# and was confused what is the basic step to connect or check in checkout.
here is the basic step

        // Connect to TFS Source Control
        
        // Create a Workspace
        
        // Get Files

        // Create a New Directory/File
        
        // Append Files and checkout/check in

Find more or post comment if you have any nice idea or simple step.

Coding Best Practices Using DateTime in the .NET Framework

Suresh Behera — Wed, 15 Oct 2008 21:55:34 GMT

The Rules

Calculations and comparisons of DateTime instances are only meaningful when the instances being compared or used are representations of points in time from the same time-zone perspective.

A developer is responsible for keeping track of time-zone information associated with a DateTime value via some external mechanism. Typically this is accomplished by defining another field or variable that you use to record time-zone information when you store a DateTime value type. This approach (storing the time-zone sense alongside the DateTime value) is the most accurate and allows different developers at different points in a program's lifecycle to always have a clear understanding of the meaning of a DateTime value. Another common approach is to make it a "rule" in your design that all time values are stored in a specific time-zone context. This approach does not require additional storage to save a user's view of the time-zone context, but introduces the risk that a time value will be misinterpreted or stored incorrectly down the road by a developer that isn't aware of the rule.

Performing date and time calculations on values that represent machine local time may not always yield the correct result. When performing calculations on time values in time-zone contexts that practice daylight savings time, you should convert values to universal time representations before performing date arithmetic calculations. For a specific list of operations and proper time-zone contexts, see the table in the Sorting out DateTime Methods section.

A calculation on an instance of a DateTime value does not modify the value of the instance, thus a call to MyDateTime.ToLocalTime() does not modify the value of the instance of the DateTime. The methods associated with the Date (in Visual Basic®) and DateTime (in the .NET CLR) classes return new instances that represent the result of a calculation or operation.

When using the .NET Framework version 1.0 and 1.1, DO NOT send a DateTime value that represents UCT time thru System.XML.Serialization. This goes for Date, Time and DateTime values. For Web services and other forms of serialization to XML involving System.DateTime, always make sure that the value in the DateTime value represents current machine local time. The serializer will properly decode an XML Schema-defined DateTime value that is encoded in GMT (offset value = 0), but it will decode it to the local machine time viewpoint.

In general, if you are dealing with absolute elapsed time, such as measuring a timeout, performing arithmetic, or doing comparisons of different DateTime values, you should try and use a Universal time value if possible so that you get the best possible accuracy without effects of time zone and/or daylight savings having an impact.

When dealing with high-level, user-facing concepts such as scheduling, and you can safely assume that each day has 24 hours from a user's perspective, it may be okay to counter Rule #6 by performing arithmetic, et cetera, on local times.

ValidatorCalloutExtender does not kick flyout after first submit click

Suresh Behera — Thu, 13 Mar 2008 14:08:00 GMT

If you have multiple validation control and using ValidatorCalloutExtender,You might have exprience that it does not kick fly out all the time after your first submit click. Well, this sounds like bug and does not have straight fix on it.

Solution:
The funny part is you can solve this problem by simple by using "SetFocusOnError=True" on your respective RequiredFieldValidator. This is little bit tricky but it does solve your problem.
