Is there a way to add custom templates for code cleanup in ReSharper?
For Example, I want to remove using() statement in file in all methods.

Is there a recommended way to suppress style sheets or scripts that are defined in the ResourceManifest of, and required by, another module?
I use a lot of reusable features that I carry over between Orchard projects. Each feature includes its own style sheet and/or script. For performance reasons, I want to bundle all of them before deploying a website. I need to prevent all the individual styles and scripts from loading since my single bundled file already contains all of them. Can I achieve this through my ResourceManifest?
Due to the buggy nature of InstallShield, it is incorrectly modifying my app.config files replacing <clear /> with <clear></clear>
After my app.config file is copied to install path, I want to run a custom action that can scan for all config files and do a standard find and replace.
I don't need code for the find and replace, what I want to know is how / where to put this custom action using Installshield?
Your best bet would be creating a deferred execution custom action and place it near the end of the execution sequence. This will guarantee it would run after the files have been installed.
In the 'Custom Actions and Sequences', Create a new custom action of the appropriate type (depending on your implementation of this replacement action). Set it's In-Script Execution to 'Deferred' and in the Sequence section have add it to the Install Exec Sequence, After ScheduleReboot.
The easiest way to modify config/ini files after deployment of files is the option of INI File Changes or Text File Changes under the System Configuration tab. You can mention the config file location and the replacement changes that you want to perform. Please refer this link.
In Visual Studio 2013/VC++ for a statically linked executable, how do I override a property setting, when it is in bold( not inherited) by using a property sheet? I cannot edit the vcxproj file as it is auto generated and direct edits are lost when it is generated.
Details:
I have a Visual studio solution that contains two projects:
Dependency.vcxproj --> Generates Dependency.lib which is a static library.
MyProg.vcxproj --> Links to Dependency.lib and generates MyProg.exe
Of these, Dependency.vcxproj is auto generated and I do not have control over its generation( It is generated from a build script every time I run it). I see that It has Optimization set to O2 and also has Debug Information Format set to none. ( Both of these are in bold - so I assume they have been explicitly turned off). However, to allow for debug, I want to override these properties and set Optimization Disabled and Debug Information Format to /Zi when I am building it as part of my solution.
I tried overriding it using a .props file for the project, but the values are not overridden - I read somewhere that a property needs to inherit for a props sheet to override.
Is there any way to override such an already modified property without editing the vcxproj file itself?
You need to make sure you lib project is actually using your .props file. Means, it has to be included in the project. If you want to override already defined property with .props, this .props needs to be included after the property is set to override it. Basically .props work similar to text inclusion.
Another option could be to use .user file to override the properties (.user may be already included into generated .vcxproj, with condition "if exists"). But anyways you need to find a way to include your file re-defining the linker properties into the .vcxproj file.
Normally, you use "debug" vs "release" configurations to allow/disallow debugging. Maybe you just need to select "debug" configuration for your solution (this one can be found in the toolbar, a combo box in Visual studio) and then build?
If this is not the case, I would say the easiest way out may be modifying the script you use to generate the project to generate the project you want.
I've exported an orchestration template using Visual Studio 2012, based on one I previously constructed. It generates a .zip with the following .vstemplate file:
<VSTemplate Type="Item" Version="2.0.0"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/vstemplate/2005">
<TemplateData>
<Name>TESTOrchestration</Name>
<Description>Custon Orchestration</Description>
<Icon>Icon.ico</Icon>
<ProjectType>Biztalk</ProjectType>
<DefaultName>TESTOrchestration.odx</DefaultName>
</TemplateData>
<TemplateContent>
<ProjectItem TargetFileName="$fileinputname$.odx" ReplaceParameters="true">Orchestration.odx</ProjectItem>
</TemplateContent>
Using this item template in VS2012 creates an orchestration with the properties shown in the fig. below.
Notice the namespace is that of the original project from which the template was exported.
I want to set the default namespace of this item to include the project name (or even better the path leading to this item within the project). After searching I've yet to find a working example of how to accomplish this in a BizTalk item, namely an .odx.
Thank you for taking the time to read my question. I really hope you will be able to help me with this.
After searching and tinkering around I found out how to accomplish this.
When you export a template from Visual Studio two files are created, a .vstemplate and a template of the exported item, in this case a .odx. In order to alter the namespace, and other attributes, you need to edit this second file and add the information you want.
It is also possible to pass dynamic values by using template parameters in the form of $parameter$, which are documented in Microsoft's library.
So, for example, if you wanted to modify the namespace to include the project name, you would have to edit the exported .odx file and add the parameter $safeprojectname$ or $rootnamespace$ to dynamically set the namespace uppon creation of a new item based on the template.
I know I can add the template in the folder
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio
11.0\Common7\IDE\Extensions\Microsoft\Entity Framework Tools\DBGen
to make it visible in the DDL Generation Template dropdownlist, but then I need to distribute the template to my team members so they can add the template to the same folder.
I was hoping that I could achieve the same result by adding the template to the VS 2012 solution somehow and make it visible in the same dropdownlist
Do you know a way to achieve this?
I'm using VS 2012 and to generate the database I use Model First approach
I played around with this tonight and found it is possible, but it's kind of a hack. You'll have to edit your edmx file by hand, and make sure it is version controlled because you have to edit the designer section of the edmx file (auto-generated). First thing is to copy the t4 template to the root of your project (might actually have to be in the same folder as the edmx, not sure). Then add the t4 template to your project. Now remove the custom tool entry (in properties) so it doesn't try and auto gen the t4 template. finally add the designer property below in the correct location in the edmx file (i included context to find the right place):
<!-- EF Designer content (DO NOT EDIT MANUALLY BELOW HERE) -->
<edmx:Designer xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ado/2009/11/edmx">
<edmx:Options>
<DesignerInfoPropertySet>
<DesignerProperty Name="DDLGenerationTemplate" Value="SSDLToSQLite3.tt" />
I ended up making a custom template to generate datetime2 fields. Although I could not get the template to show in the drop down in the properties box, I was able to add the template to the same folder as my .edmx, include it in the solution, then type the file name of the template directly into the designer's property field replacing the default. The value appears to be retained after generating databases and entities, I didn't need to directly edit the edmx XML, and my custom template is now source controlled right next to where it is used.
