I love Performance Profiler

March 14, 2010 IDE, Performance 2 comments

Honestly I haven’t used any Performance Profiler, since I did not feel need to use it and also I thought that it could be boring… How was I wrong! It is so easy and intuitive, I’m getting super good reports with highlighting of  expensive code and it keeps highlighting in Visual Studio. So I’m always aware which code is expensive.

Take a look:

I love it.

There is no “Edit WCF Configuration”

March 3, 2010 IDE, WCF, Workaround No comments

If you have no “Edit WCF Configuration” in the context menu on right click on the App.config.

I’m talking about this one:

Go to Tools -> WCF Service Configuration Editor

Open it and then close.
This is funny and strange solution to our issue.

Installation VS2010 RC on Windows XP – Issue: “To help protect your computer, Windows has closed this program. Name: Suite Integration Toolkit Executable”

February 23, 2010 Errors, IDE, VS2010 4 comments

I have found that not only my project has a lot of stupid bugs with more unexpected fixes, but also some well known products like Visual Studio.

Today I tried to install VS2010 RC on the XP system. Before that I had Beta 1 installed, but now it requires Service Pack 3.
So I installed Service Pack 3, deinstalled Beta 1 and was expecting to install VS2010 RC without any pain.

But what happen was interesting:

Installation process runs… and then just dies without explanations.
Playing with it I’ve got this
Error message:
To help protect your computer, Windows has closed this program. Name: Suite Integration Toolkit Executable

I searched over the internet how to fix this. And I found it:
Go to input languages settings and do the next for each input language you have:

I could not imagine that someone is able to guess such strange fix itself. :)

Of course there are explanations here and here.
