Is it possible to create "Empty Solution" with Visual Web Developer 2010 Express? - vwdexpress

s it possible to create an "Empty Solution" with Visual Web Developer 2010 Express? It looks to me like that was possible to do so with VWD 2008 SP1 Express.
Anything to configure to get an empty solution? Or something similar, so that I can get more than one solution for a new application? I've VS2008 professional and I'd like to switch to VWD 2010 Express before I'm able to get VS2010 Professional edition.
Thanks for helping

First, identify a folder location in which you will build solutions.
Then in VWD 2010 Express, create a New Project from the File menu. Select the Windows templates under your preferred language (ie C#) and highlight Class Library. Name your Class (ie, "Domain") and below that you have options to set your base directory for the solution folder, 'Create new solution', and provide a 'Solution name' with the 'Create directory for solution'.
You can then use the File -> Add... menu option to add resources to the your solution.

I came into this problem myself
If I understand you question right this is what you want to do.
Go to File -> New Project -> (under Installed Templates) click and expand desired language (VB or C#) -> click on Web -> and to the right go down to ASP.NET Empty Web Application. That will create the necesary Properties, References, and the Web.config files.
Then just click on File -> New File... -> Click on desired language -> Click on Web -> and select what you want you include. in your case a Web Form.
That is it.

LINQ2SQL installed but LINQ To SQL Classes missing from "Add New Item" list in Class Library Project

I have VS 2017 Solution with Linq2SQL projects (with .dbml) files in them. When I add a new Class Library to the solution, and do an "Add New Item" in that project, the Linq To SQL Classes option is missing. It is present if I click on other projects in the solution. How do I add new LINQ To SQL Classes to my new Class Library project?
So of course just a few minutes after I post this question I'm crawling through raw, unloaded Project files and realize I had added a "Class Library (.NET Standard)" instead of a "Class Library (.NET Framework)". The missing classes are available in (.NET Framework).
It looks like you haven't installed this component yet. It's best to install it this way:
Open Visual Installer and go to:
-> More -> Modify
After appear Modify window click on Individual Components tab. Then in the Code tools category check LINQ to SQL tools and install it.

Microsoft Visual Studio - HTML and CSS export

it may seem as a dumb question, but I started using VS for HTML and CSS coding I can't seem to find how to export my project. I found help on Microsoft Developer Centre or what and I just can't find it. Can you give me a better explaination?
Thanks.
I suggest you use another code editor for html css,like notepad ++ , sublime text and so on, visualstudio focused on .net apps .
Visual Studio doesn't export your code , for .net apps it will debug and build your app with needed files also you can use save all as option from file menu to select where to save your files
For exporting your project in vs Studio you should:
Right click on your project then Select Export Program.
Under Export toolchain, select Visual Studio Code
Click Export, and unpack at a convenient location.

Get SSIS solution from VSS

I have very little idea on SSIS and controlling this using VSS (Visual Source Safe). I have a requirement in my project to go through a few SSIS solutions/Projects. Can someone please help me how can I access this and view as a proper setup. Below is the rough structure of the VSS
Project1
-Project1 : has file.sql, Project1.sln, Project1.vssscc (please help me understand this)
-dbBuild : has db_build.dbp, db_build dbp.vspscc
-dbStaging
and so on.
I would open VSS and navigate to the Project folder. Then I would right-click the Project folder and choose Get Latest Version.
You will be prompted to set the Working folder - I normally create a new folder on the Dev machine's hard drive e.g. C:\Dev\MyProject. I would check the options for Recursive and then Build tree.
This will effectively create a copy of the latest VSS content in the hard drive folder, which you can then open using Visual Studio.

How to set up visual studio to create CSHTML files in (Umbraco) Project

So, i'm developing my razor macroscripts in Visual studio for my Umbraco project.
Everything is working fine, but there are two things really annoying.
If I want to make a new CSHTML file the best solution for this is to duplicate an existing file.
I dont have full razor IntelliSense like e.g. Html.Raw
Is there a way to configure my project to use this features? Didn't find a .cshtml template yet.
You need to have the MVC Framework installed, then when you open the project as a website, you should be able to create and edit cshtml files with syntax highlighting. See my answer to the following post for more details:
Setting up local development environment for Umbraco
If your project is a web site/application then the mvc templates aren't available (they only show up in MVC projects). You can just create a text file and name it with the .cshtml extension though (you could set up your own template for this in VS if you wanted to).
To get intellisense in your Razor files, see Doug Robar's blog post on the subject
As an alternative if you go into the Umbraco admin, go to the 'Developer' section and right click on 'Scripting Files' you can create razor scripts directly (and this will save the new .cshtml directly into your 'macroScripts' folder - although in VS2010 you will need to right click on the new script and choose 'include in project').
Also this will allow you to base your new razor macroscript on one of the pre-built snippets so you may get a bit of core functionality for free.
From Umbraco 6 on it's very convenient to install Umbraco on your local file system with Visual Studio and NuGet. Given that you have the MVC Framework installed and you use Visual Studio 2012 or above, you get full Razor support in Visual studio.
Umbraco Our has a great blogpost about this where they described the steps below in detail (with screenshots!).
Create an Empty Web Application.
Install Umbraco using Manage Nuget Packages ('Umbraco CMS') or the Package manager console (Install-Package UmbracoCms)
NuGet will then download dependencies and will install all of Umbraco's files in your new solution. During this process it will ask if it is allowed to overwrite your web.config file. (Make a back up of your existing web.config if you install Umbraco in an existing project)
Finally, don't forget to run your project hitting F5. You'll see that whenever you try to add or edit a file in your views folder you have razor support and intellisense

How to create HTML 5 project in Aptana Studio?

I installed Aptana Studio 3 on my windows machine.
I created new WEB Project but when I expand my Proj folder I can see only "Connection" tab. Nothing else. What is the prob? what should I do to get all the files?
Forgive me if the following is what you already did but I was not certain what steps you took from your question/post ... I'm going through the standard steps for creating an HTML 5 Web Project with the Boilerplate templates:
Open Aptana ( duh :) )
File -> New -> Web Project
Provide a Project Name and select your directory if you don't want the default used
Press Next
Select the checkbox for 'Create the project using one of the templates'
Select the HTML5 Boilerplate (use the cached one - I can never get the other, networked one to work)
Select Finish
You should now see the new project and all its default files in your App Explorer view in Aptana.
If you followed those steps but it still fails, I would file a bug (or, at the least, check the existing issues with Aptana) at:
http://jira.appcelerator.org/browse/APSTUD (bugs)
