Using dual monitors is one way to tackle this problem. If you happen to be running on a terminal server machine there's an even better way to do this. Create a terminal server session to your own machine and start the exe in the terminal server window...

The environment for all virtual hosting plans at uplinkearth is considered to be "production". We expect that your code has been debugged prior to uploading to your virtual server. While we recognize that matching our server environment to your development environment may not be 100% possible, we do expect that most of your code is already production quality and does not require low level debugging facilities.

No. The value of this property is not stored in the project files. It is stored in extra files created by the IDE when a solution is loaded (VS .NET 2003 uses a hidden .suo file next to the .sln solution file). The format of these files is not known to CMake and cannot be generated. In some versions of VS the files are binary and not human readable. The path to the SDK libs (user32.

When filing bugs, it is often necessary to get a trace (generally +relay, but specific DLLs have their own debug channels). To retrieve a trace, run: Then ATTACH /tmp/output.txt to the bug. If the resulting file is larger than 1 MB, compress it with 'bzip2 -9' or 'rzip -9' before attaching.

This is possible if the same listener was added more than once to the Listeners list in Trace. This is possible even if an assembly that you linked to makes an additional entry for the same listener. Perform a check like this before adding a listener...

Use our Mono Migration Analysis tool to check if everything that your application uses has been implemented in Mono or if there are special considerations to keep in mind. The Mono API today is somewhere in between .NET 1.1 and .NET 2.0, see our Roadmap for details about what is implemented.

The service has been tested with a C# client auto-generated from WSDL by the wsdl.exe tool. It should work fine from any .NET language.

I have code snippets that I use often. How can I manage them so I can easily used them? In Visual Studio, you can store commonly used code snippets on a tab (other than the Clipboard ring) in your Toolbox. You use drag and drop techniques to move the...

Use the Tracer. In tkeclipse, choose "Tracer" from the Tools menu. See the chapter on "Debugging" in the User Manual; and the worked example in chapter 5 of the ECLiPSe Tutorial.

Yes. In order to do this you will need to buy Visual Studio Team Foundation Server and a Client Access License for proper communication with the server. Team Explorer, which is included with Team Foundation Server, is a stand alone client that uses the Visual Studio 2005 shell providing a UI for source control, work item tracking and all the other features. For more information on licensing Visual Studio Team System (including Team Foundation Server) see the Team System Licensing White Paper.

No, but for non-Java programs it helps. The suggested compromise is to build it with debug, develop your traces, then strip the debug information when shipping the product. This is fully discussed in Chapter 6 of RootCause for C++ User's Guide, "Building a Traceable Application".

Documentation looks the same. Use Debug class for debug builds, use Trace class for both debug and release builds.
