Using Visual Studio 2008, 2010, 2012, 2013:

 1. Go to the Breakpoint window
 2. New -&gt; Break at Function…
 3. For the `get`, type: `ClassName.get_Counter()`

    For the `set`, type: `ClassName.set_Counter(int)`

You&#39;ll get a *&quot;No Source Available&quot;* when the breakpoint is hit, but you&#39;ll get the calling location in the call stack.

I found this solution [here on MSDN](http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/vsdebug/thread/b1dd0dc3-e9c1-402a-9c79-a5abf7f7286a)

 

On Visual Studio 2017:

Hover over &quot;set&quot; word -&gt; right click -&gt; Breakpoint -&gt; Insert Breakpoint

This question is very old but it is worth noting that it just works in VS 2015.

https://devblogs.microsoft.com/devops/set-breakpoints-on-auto-implemented-properties-with-visual-studio-2015/

    class X {
      public string name {
        set;
        get; // setting a breakpoint here will break in VS 2015!
      }
    }

If I was you, I&#39;d temporarily make the property a standard one backed by an internal field...set your breakpoints, and then you can change it back after.  

Set Breakpoints where you are setting property or getting property, No other way.

you can do this by **Find All References** options

And Since it is only storing values and do not have any code in setter part so what do you  debug?


I have an `ImageButton` and I want to show a text and an image on it. But when I try on emulator:

    &lt;ImageButton 
	    android:text=&quot;OK&quot; 
	    android:id=&quot;@+id/buttonok&quot; 
	    android:src=&quot;@drawable/buttonok&quot;
	    android:layout_width=&quot;match_parent&quot; 
	    android:layout_height=&quot;wrap_content&quot; /&gt;

I get the image but without the text. How can I show the text? Please help me!

A `NSInteger` is 32 bits on 32-bit platforms, and 64 bits on 64-bit platforms. Is there a `NSLog` specifier that always matches the size of `NSInteger`?

Setup

- Xcode 3.2.5
- llvm 1.6 compiler **(this is important; gcc doesn&#39;t do this)**
- `GCC_WARN_TYPECHECK_CALLS_TO_PRINTF` turned on

That&#39;s causing me some grief here:

    #import &lt;Foundation/Foundation.h&gt;

    int main (int argc, const char * argv[]) {
        @autoreleasepool {
            NSInteger i = 0;
            NSLog(@&quot;%d&quot;, i);
        }
        return 0;
    }

For 32 bit code, I need the `%d` specifier. But if I use the `%d` specifier, I get a warning when compiling for 64 bit suggesting I use `%ld` instead.

If I use `%ld` to match the 64 bit size, when compiling for 32 bit code I get a warning suggesting I use `%d` instead.

How do I fix both warnings at once? Is there a specifier I can use that works on either?

This also impacts `[NSString stringWithFormat:]` and `[[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:]`.

I have dozens of unit tests, and I&#39;d like to fix the code I am working on now, but every time I run the tests it takes over 30 seconds to run every unit test (I think reflection is the cause of some of these being especially slow). My current test and many other tests take less than one second to run, but it is annoying to disable and then enable specific unit tests.

Is there a way to say, &quot;For now, run a single, specific test?&quot;

I&#39;m using Visual Studio 2010 with the built-in unit test system. I create tests by right-clicking any code and selecting &quot;create unit test&quot; which creates a project.

I am learning Java these days and I&#39;ve spent a lot of time with .NET so when I want to export or import libraries, they are usually in .dll format which is called assemblies in .NET environment and they are compiled to IL and they can have resources like images, XML, audio and so on, anyways.

I am wondering the same process in Java as well. I&#39;ve read documents but they actually confused me a little bit and to clarify things out I need your help guys.

**Questions:**

1. .NET Assembly is the same thing as Java .jar?
2. .dll contains compiled IL code and .jar contains compiled .class/byte code files?
3. They say resources, what kind of resources we are talking about here? Images, .txt files, etc. or all of them possible?

4. I&#39;ve examined AWS (Amazon Web Service API for java) and I saw three .jar file and they are 
    1. aws-java-sdk-1.1.1.jar
    2. aws-java-sdk-1.1.1-javadoc.jar
    3. aws-java-sdk-1.1.1-sources.jar

and they contain .class files - java documentation in html format and .java files which are still not compiled. So then I&#39;ve realized .jar doesn&#39;t just include compiled byte codes (.class) and also other things.

5. When I want to import java libraries, will I always need to import .jar files?
6. When I want to export my own java libraries, should I need to export in .jar file.

Thanks for help in advance.




Difference between .jar and .dll file

Maybe the question I&#39;ve stated isn&#39;t the right question, cause I already know the short answer is &quot;you can&#39;t&quot;.

&lt;h3&gt;The situation&lt;/h3&gt;
I have a base class with an overloaded constructor that takes two arguments.

    class Building
    {
        public BuildingType BuildingType { get; protected set; }
        public string Address { get; set; }
        public decimal Price { get; set; }

        public Building()
        {
            BuildingType = BuildingType.General;
            Address = &quot;Unknown&quot;;
        }

        public Building(string address, decimal price)
            : this()
        {
            Address = address;
            Price = price;
        }
    }
The class is using an enum

    enum BuildingType { None, General, Office, Apartment }

Now I want to create a child class Office which also has an overloaded constructor. This child class adds another property (Company). In this class, the BuildingType property should off course be set to Office. This is the code.

    class Office : Building
    {
        public string Company { get; set; }

        public Office()
        {
            BuildingType = BuildingType.Office;
        }

        public Office(string address, decimal price, string company)
            : base(address, price)
        {
            Company = company;
            // BuildingType = BuildingType.Office; // Don&#39;t wanna repeat statement
        }
    }

&lt;h3&gt;What I want and why&lt;/h3&gt;
I want the second constructor for the Office class to execute both the `base(address, price)` constructor as well as the default constructor of the Office class. I want to call the `base(address, price)` constructor so I don&#39;t have to repeat assigning all the properties of the base class. I want to call the default constructor of the Office class because it sets the BuildingType property to BuildingType.Office.

Now I know I can&#39;t using something like this.

    public Office(string address, decimal price, string company)
        : base(address, price) this()

&lt;h3&gt;Am I doing something wrong?&lt;/h3&gt;
I&#39;m wondering if there&#39;s something wrong with my design that makes me want to call both base(address, price) and this(). Maybe I shouldn&#39;t be setting the BuildingType in the constructor but somewhere else? I&#39;ve tried to introduce a field for this.

        public BuildingType BuildingType = BuildingType.General;

But then I can&#39;t do the same in the child class. I&#39;d be hiding the BuildingType field in the base class so I&#39;d have to use the `new` operator in the child class. I&#39;ve tried making the BuildingType in the base class `virtual`, but a field can&#39;t be made virtual.

&lt;h3&gt;Creating something in the base constructor&lt;/h3&gt;
In this simple example the default constructors only assign default values to some properties. But the Building constructor could als be creating a Foundation for the building, while the Office default constructor might create a... (can&#39;t think of something, but you get the idea). So then you&#39;d still want to execute both default constructors.

Am I thinking in the wrong direction here?

---
&lt;h3&gt;Update&lt;/h3&gt;
Based on Jon Skeet&#39;s answer and comments, here&#39;s my new code. I&#39;ve changed constructor chaining from least specific to most specific. I&#39;ve also added the `BuildingType` to the constructor of the `Building` class, made that constructor protected, and made the property setter private.

    enum BuildingType { None, General, Office, Apartment }

    class Building
    {
        private const string DefaultAddress = &quot;Unknown&quot;;

        public BuildingType BuildingType { get; private set; }
        public string Address { get; set; }
        public decimal Price { get; set; }

        #region Optional public constructors
        // Only needed if code other than subclass must 
        // be able to create a Building instance.
        // But in that case, the class itself can be abstract
        public Building() : this(DefaultAddress, 0m)
        {}

        public Building(string address, decimal price)
            : this(BuildingType.General, address, price) 
        {}
        #endregion

        protected Building(BuildingType buildingType)
            : this(buildingType, DefaultAddress, 0m) 
        {}

        protected Building(BuildingType buildingType,
            string address, decimal price)
        {
            BuildingType = buildingType;
            Address = address;
            Price = price;
        }
    }

    class Office : Building
    {
        public string Company { get; set; }

        public Office() : this(&quot;Unknown Office&quot;, 0m, null) 
        {}

        public Office(string address, decimal price, string company)
            : base(BuildingType.Office, address, price)
        {
            Company = company;
        }
    }

Can you (Jon Skeet or someone else) please comment on this revised version of the code?

One (minor) problem that isn&#39;t solved by this is that the default constructor for the Office class still needs to provide a default address (`&quot;Unknown Office&quot;` in the above code). I would still prefer to let the constructor of the base class decide on the address if one isn&#39;t specified. So this code still doesn&#39;t do _exactly_ what I want.

I could probably solve that by not using constructor chaining in the derived class, but in stead have each of it&#39;s constructors directly call the base constructor. That would mean I&#39;d change the default constructor of the `Office` class to

    public Office() : base(BuildingType.Office)

That would work for this simple example, but if there&#39;s some method I&#39;d like to execute on every instantiation of an Office, I&#39;d have to call in in all constructors. That&#39;s why constructor chaining sounds like a better idea to me.

How can I have an overloaded constructor call both the default constructor as well as an overload of the base constructor?

What member should I implement in my arbitrary structure to make the following assignment possible:

    public struct MyStruct {
       String s;
       Int length;
    }
    
    MyStruct myStruct = new MyStruct { s = &quot;Hello&quot;, length = 5 };
    
    // Now, I want the following code to set the &#39;s&#39; to &quot;Lol&quot; and the
    // length to 3 (length of &quot;Lol&quot;). The second part should be done
    // automatically.
    myStruct = &quot;Lol&quot;; // Or myStruct = String(&quot;Lol&quot;);

**How should this be done?**

I&#39;ve got an Excel add-in project that was created a couple years back in Visual Studio 2008. It&#39;s got some changes to be made so I&#39;ve upgraded to Visual Studio 2010 (the only IDE I am able to use). Not sure if this is causing the problem but it&#39;s background information.

When I check out the code and compile it I get the error, &quot;Error 1 Unable to find manifest signing certificate in the certificate store.&quot;

Can anyone tell me what this means and how to fix it?

Task is to form Visual Studio 2010 project so, that during any build or publish some `foo.exe` utility should be copied to output (`bin`) directory.  

Early I have made PostBuildEvent task in .csproj (MSBuild-file):

    &lt;PropertyGroup&gt;
      &lt;PostBuildEvent&gt;
        Copy &quot;$(SolutionDir)Tools\foo.exe&quot; &quot;$(ProjectDir)$(OutDir)foo.exe&quot;
      &lt;/PostBuildEvent&gt;
    &lt;/PropertyGroup&gt;
 

But this is not universal. During publishing (Visual Studio 2010) `foo.exe` appears in `bin` directory, but is not copied to output publish directory. Maybe I do everything completely wrong and there is standard mechanism to include files in projects to be later, during build or publish, copied to `bin`?

I would like to be able to call a closure that I assign to an object&#39;s property directly without reassigning the closure to a variable and then calling it. Is this possible?

In Python, I have the following example class :

    class Foo:
        self._attr = 0

        @property
        def attr(self):
            return self._attr

        @attr.setter
        def attr(self, value):
            self._attr = value

        @attr.deleter
        def attr(self):
            del self._attr

As you can see, I have a simple &quot;private&quot; attribute &quot;_attr&quot; and a property to access it. There is a lot of codes to declare a simple private attribute and I think that it&#39;s not respecting the &quot;KISS&quot; philosophy to declare all attributes like that.

So, why not declare all my attributes as public attributes if I don&#39;t need a particular getter/setter/deleter ?

My answer will be :
Because the principle of encapsulation (OOP) says otherwise!

What is the best way ?

I have declared a readonly property in my interface as such:

     @property (readonly, nonatomic, copy) NSString* eventDomain;

Maybe I&#39;m misunderstanding properties, but I thought that when you declare it as `readonly`, you can use the generated setter inside of the implementation (`.m`) file, but external entities cannot change the value. [This SO question][1] says that&#39;s what should happen. That is the behavior I&#39;m after. However, when attempting to use the standard setter or dot syntax to set `eventDomain` inside of my init method, it gives me an `unrecognized selector sent to instance.` error. Of course I&#39;m `@synthesize`ing the property. Trying to use it like this:

     // inside one of my init methods
     [self setEventDomain:@&quot;someString&quot;]; // unrecognized selector sent to instance error
 
So am I misunderstanding the `readonly` declaration on a property? Or is something else going on?

I&#39;m trying to create an abstract class that defines a property with a getter. I want to leave it up to derived classes to decide if they want to implement a setter for the property or not. Is this possible?

What I have so far:

    public abstract class AbstractClass {
        public abstract string Value { get; }
        public void DoSomething() {
            Console.WriteLine(Value);
        }
    }

    public class ConcreteClass1 : AbstractClass {
        public override string Value { get; set; }
    }

    public class ConcreteClass2 : AbstractClass {
        private string _value;
        public override string Value {
            get { return _value; }
        }
        public string Value {
            set { _value = value; }
        }
    }

    public class ConcreteClass3 : AbstractClass {
        private string _value;
        public override string Value {
            get { return _value; }
        }
        public void set_Value(string value) {
            _value = value;
        }
    }

In `ConcreteClass1`, I get an error on the `set`. It can&#39;t override `set_Value` because no overridable set accessor exists in AbstractClass.

In `ConcreteClass2`, I get an error on both `Value`&#39;s because a member with the same name is already declared.

`ConcreteClass3` doesn&#39;t give an error, but even though Value&#39;s set accessor would be compiled into set_Value, it doesn&#39;t work the other way around. Defining a `set_Value` does not mean that `Value` gets a set accessor. So I can&#39;t assign a value to a ConcreteClass3.Value property. I *can* use ConcreteClass3.set_Value(&quot;value&quot;), but that&#39;s not what I&#39;m trying to achieve here.

Is it possible to have the abstract class demand a public getter, while allowing an optional setter to be defined in a derived class?

_In case you&#39;r wondering, this is just a theoretical question. I don&#39;t have a real situation where something like this is needed. But I can imagine an abstract class that doesn&#39;t care how a property gets set, but that does need to be able to get the property._

Abstract property with public getter, define private setter in concrete class possible?

I am creating my own object:

    gridObject = new Object();

I am then using jquery to pull the contents of list item tags, which themselves are filled with &lt;p&gt; tags that have specific class names:

    &lt;li row=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;department&quot; rowitem=&quot;department&quot;&gt;Photography&lt;/p&gt;...&lt;/li&gt;

I am pulling them using this code:  

    //make object from results
    gridObject = new Object();
			
    //get all the rows
    var rowlist = $(&#39;li[row]&#39;);
			
    for(var r=0; r&lt;rowlist.length; r++) {
				
        //make gridObject row element here
				
        //get the row content
        var thisrow = $(rowlist[r]).html();
	
        //get all the p tags
        var rowitems = $(thisrow + &#39;p.[rowitem]&#39;);
				
        //get field name
        for(var ri=0; ri&lt;rowitems.length; ri++) {
	    if (r &lt; 2) { //this is temporary just for testing
	         var fieldname = $(rowitems[ri]).attr(&#39;rowitem&#39;);
	         var fieldvalue = $(rowitems[ri]).html();
	    }
        }

Ia m getting hung up passing this into my object. Two questions. Can an object property be made with a variable name, like so

    griObject.fieldname = fieldvalue;

and can the objects have parent/child relationships such as:

    gridObject.r.fieldname = fieldvalue; 

in this case both r and fieldname would be variables. Or should I just be working associative arrays to achieve something similar?

This is in answer to a follow up question I posted below: &quot;Is there a `print_r` equivalent in javascript&quot; - you can use iterator, a bit more typing but does the trick:

    //loop through search data
    var it = Iterator(filteritems); 
    for(var pair in it) { 
        console.log(&quot;key:&quot; + pair[0] + &quot;, value:&quot; + pair[1] + &quot;\n&quot;);
    }

How to set break point on one file of a project which has many files with same name?

I have a solution with some projects. There are several break-points in different projects. I want to trace the first thread hit one of these break-points and continue tracing that single thread despite of other threads entering the same code-blocks.

I know this is possible through defining a condition on the break-point, that is, thread name = ... or thread Id = ... but my case is a heavy loaded [ASP.NET][1] application and as soon as I attach to `w3wp.exe` many threads will hit the break-points. I need some thing like a `ThreadLocal&lt;break-point&gt;`.

Is it possible? If so, how?

How to debug a single thread in Visual Studio?

Visual Studio remembers breakpoints from previous debugging sessions, which is awesome.

However, when I&#39;m debugging, and I clear one of these &quot;old&quot; breakpoints by clicking on it, it&#39;s only temporarily deleted. What I mean is the next time I debug, the breakpoint that I thought I removed is back.
