RE: TFS Feedaback? Anyone moved away from it?
Hi Les, I have used a few (Source safe / TFS / Borland Starteam / Subversion) in my dealings as a contractor, and have to say I am very happy with TFS. I guess it all depends on what you are after - Just source control or the full ALM? At the office we use TFS 2008 to get bug tracking, reports etc, but for my personal stuff I am using TFS2010 basic on a Windows home server just for source control. Install was a breeze and it just works! I can access everything remotely and It feels like a first class citizen in VS. I wouldn't consider going back myself. That said though, we do have issues with TFS at the office with a team of devs - but almost always it's the developer's actions that cause the problems. Things like changing files outside VS (so TFS doesn't know its changed), or overwriting the server version instead of merging, leaving files exclusively locked, and it has taken a bit of time to educate on good Project structure for source control and the branching and merging strategies, but these are going to be issues with any system. It does help to have the power tools and I also use Team foundation sidekicks to manage the office install. So is it worth the time? - Yes Alastair -Original Message- From: ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com [mailto:ozdotnet-boun...@ozdotnet.com] On Behalf Of Les Hughes Sent: Wednesday, 3 November 2010 8:32 PM To: michaelsli...@gmail.com; ozDotNet Subject: TFS Feedaback?

Math.Round
Hi All, Does anybody know if it is possible to change the default behaviour of the math.round function. Out of the box is does this; Dim number = 98.5 Dim RoundedNumber = Math.Round(number) RoundedNumber = 98 What I want is to change the behaviour to Dim number = 98.5 Dim RoundedNumber = Math.Round(number, MidpointRounding.AwayFromZero) RoundedNumber = 99 I would like my developers to not have to think about adding the Mode. Now to save some of the arguments I KNOW we are going to have; Yes - We could have code reviews to highlight when it is incorrect Yes - FX Cop or similar Yes - There are probably different / better algorithms Yes - There are business reasons for this So My question is can we change the default behaviour from Math.Round(number, MidpointRounding.ToEven) To Math.Round(number, MidpointRounding.AwayFromZero) Alastair Important Notice This email contains information which is confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom it is addressed.
