Visual studio IDE gives an option to outline the if, for, foreach, while, switch case etc.

Just go to `Visual Studio -&gt; Tools -&gt; Options -&gt; Text Editor -&gt; C\C++- &gt; View` and set `Outline Statement Blocks` to true.

In Visual Studio 2012+, the path is `Visual Studio -&gt; Tools -&gt; Options -&gt; Text Editor -&gt; C\C++- &gt; Formatting`.


I use 2 Extensions:

[C# outline 2013][1]

and

[Indent Guides][2]

select the code you want to collapse and then press ctrl+M,ctrl+H. to disable it, press ctrl+M,ctrl+U, you can also right click on the selection, and there &quot;Plan Mode&quot; ( I&#39;m not sure my VS is french )

You can use `#region` for collapsing if, else, for and other similar clauses.&lt;br&gt;
**Example:**

    #region foreach
    foreach(/*conditions*/) 
    {
        statement 1;
        statement 2;
        ..
        statement n;
    }
    #endregion

Now for collapse all use the shortcut &lt;kbd&gt;ctrl&lt;/kbd&gt;+&lt;kbd&gt;M&lt;/kbd&gt;,&lt;kbd&gt;ctrl&lt;/kbd&gt;+&lt;kbd&gt;O&lt;/kbd&gt;.

Is there a way to require SSL for WebApi? An attribute?

I don&#39;t see an applicable attribute under `System.Web.Http`, something like the `RequireHttps` attribute we have for MVC.  I&#39;m just trying to avoid rolling my own attribute/ message handler if there is a built in solution.

We had previously been referring to our Windows Azure libraries via the SDK and I noticed that they have [NuGet packages for them now][1].  This is obviously way better, so I&#39;m swapping out all of those references for the NuGet packages.  

However, I can&#39;t find a NuGet package for Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ServiceRuntime.dll that contains classes such as [RoleEnvironment][2], etc.  

Are we supposed to be referencing this dll from the SDK installation and not a nuget package?  That seems extremely odd.  Am I just not seeing the package for this assembly?

I&#39;ve now installed all of the &quot;windowsazureofficial&quot; tagged packages (just temporarily) and none of them seem to have the correct reference!

I get stuck sometimes with very long clauses and I am looking for a way that allows me to collapse them, same way as I can collapse classes, methods and namespaces by default.

Is there a Visual Studio extension that does that? neither ReSharper nor JustCode does allow it.

Thank you!

I have some class libraries with a non-trivial amount of existing code. The class libraries currently target .NET 4.0. Is there any guidance on how to convert these libraries to be portable libraries? From looking at the .csproj, it doesn&#39;t appear that there are a lot of differences:

    &lt;Import Project=&quot;$(MSBuildExtensionsPath32)\Microsoft\Portable\$(TargetFrameworkVersion)\Microsoft.Portable.CSharp.targets&quot; /&gt;

and

    &lt;ProjectTypeGuids&gt;{786C830F-07A1-408B-BD7F-6EE04809D6DB};{FAE04EC0-301F-11D3-BF4B-00C04F79EFBC}&lt;/ProjectTypeGuids&gt;

Is it a good or bad idea to try converting an existing class library to be a portable library?

I have a public facing interface that I&#39;m trying to map two different enumerations to each other.  I tried to use the following code:

    Mapper.CreateMap&lt;Contract_1_1_0.ValidationResultType, Common.ValidationResultType&gt;();

When that didn&#39;t work, I tried:

    Mapper.CreateMap&lt;Contract_1_1_0.ValidationResultType, Common.ValidationResultType&gt;().ConvertUsing(x =&gt; (Common.ValidationResultType)((int)x));

But that doesn&#39;t seem to work either.  Is there anyway to get automapper to handle this scenario?

How can I map between two enums using Automapper?

Basic question here - I have many lines of code that look something like:

    var a = (long_expression == null) ? null : long_expression.Method();


Similar lines repeat a lot in this function. `long_expression` is different every time. I am trying to find **a way to avoid repeating `long_expression`, but keeping this compact**. Something like the opposite of `operator ??`. For the moment I&#39;m considering just giving in and putting it on multiple lines like:

    var temp = long_expression;
    var a = (temp == null) ? null : temp.Method();

But I was curious if there is some clever syntax I don&#39;t know about that would make this more concise.



Best syntax for a = (x == null) ? null : x.func()

I am just wondering what a good **reason to use Serializable** as the default Isolationlevel may be when creating a [System.Transactions][1] **TransactionScope**, because I cannot think of any (and it seems that you cannot change the default via `web/app.config` so you always have to set it in your code)

    using(var transaction = TransactionScope()) 
    {
        ... //creates a Transaction with Serializable Level
    }


Instead I always have to write boilerplate code like this:

    var txOptions = new System.Transactions.TransactionOptions();
    txOptions.IsolationLevel = System.Transactions.IsolationLevel.ReadCommitted;
        
    using(var transaction = new TransactionScope(TransactionScopeOption.Required, txOptions)) 
    {
        ...
    }


Any ideas?

I know how to implement the non generic IEnumerable, like this:

    using System;
    using System.Collections;
    
    namespace ConsoleApplication33
    {
        class Program
        {
            static void Main(string[] args)
            {
                MyObjects myObjects = new MyObjects();
                myObjects[0] = new MyObject() { Foo = &quot;Hello&quot;, Bar = 1 };
                myObjects[1] = new MyObject() { Foo = &quot;World&quot;, Bar = 2 };
    
                foreach (MyObject x in myObjects)
                {
                    Console.WriteLine(x.Foo);
                    Console.WriteLine(x.Bar);
                }
    
                Console.ReadLine();
            }
        }
    
        class MyObject
        {
            public string Foo { get; set; }
            public int Bar { get; set; }
        }
    
        class MyObjects : IEnumerable
        {
            ArrayList mylist = new ArrayList();
    
            public MyObject this[int index]
            {
                get { return (MyObject)mylist[index]; }
                set { mylist.Insert(index, value); }
            }
    
            IEnumerator IEnumerable.GetEnumerator()
            {
                return mylist.GetEnumerator();
            }
        }
    }

However I also notice that IEnumerable has a generic version, `IEnumerable&lt;T&gt;`, but I can&#39;t figure out how to implement it.

If I add `using System.Collections.Generic;` to my using directives, and then change:

    class MyObjects : IEnumerable

to:

    class MyObjects : IEnumerable&lt;MyObject&gt;

And then right click on `IEnumerable&lt;MyObject&gt;` and select `Implement Interface =&gt; Implement Interface`, Visual Studio helpfully adds the following block of code:

    IEnumerator&lt;MyObject&gt; IEnumerable&lt;MyObject&gt;.GetEnumerator()
    {
        throw new NotImplementedException();
    }

Returning the non generic IEnumerable object from the `GetEnumerator();` method doesn&#39;t work this time, so what do I put here? The CLI now ignores the non generic implementation and heads straight for the generic version when it tries to enumerate through my array during the foreach loop.

How do I implement IEnumerable&lt;T&gt;

I get  a message saying the following:

&gt;  Error	1	Package restore is disabled by default. To give consent, open
&gt; the Visual Studio Options dialog, click on Package Manager node and
&gt; check &#39;Allow NuGet to download missing packages during build.&#39; You can
&gt; also give consent by setting the environment variable
&gt; &#39;EnableNuGetPackageRestore&#39; to &#39;true&#39;.


When I go to Tools -&gt; Options, I do not see Package Manager and underneath I see Package Sources and Recent Packages. I do not see anywhere where I can set Allow Nuget to download missing packages during build though.

Is there a way to perform searches (Find / Find in Files) in visual studio that will exclude matches in comments?  While sometimes it is useful, other times it is the opposite.  For all of the options presented, I figured it would be in there, but I can&#39;t find it if it is.

I am using VS 2010/2012 about equally by the way.

I have a clean, out-of-the-box installation of Visual&amp;nbsp;Studio&amp;nbsp;2012 Web Developer Express and for some reason the support for JavaScript (both jQuery, jQuery UI and other libraries) has disappeared. I believe it worked before and then for &quot;no reason&quot; it stopped.

I&#39;ve browsed the web as supposed to and discovered four discrepancies.

 1. I don&#39;t have the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\11.0\JavaScriptLanguageService\ImplicitReferences in my registry. In fact, I don&#39;t even have JavaScriptLanguageService directory.

 2. I&#39;ve checked that the referred file domWindows.js indeed is where the options point to.

 3. The output window under JavaScriptLanguageService is empty and nothing is being typed there while I develop and run my application.

 4. I&#39;ve referred to the jQuery-file that I&#39;m using through the options but it didn&#39;t produce any changes.

All in all I get the error message saying that:

&gt; &quot;intellisense was unable to determine an accurate completion list for this expression, The provided list contains all identifiers in the file&quot;

Any suggestions would be warmly appreciated.


Intellisense doesn&#39;t work for JavaScript in Visual Studio 2012

I am using Visual Studio Express 2012. Where is the location of the log file? I have searched in the folder where my solution and projects are stored, but cannot find any .log file. 

This is the configuration for logging:

When I debug my project, I get following error:

&gt; &quot;Unable to copy file &quot;obj\Debug\My Dream.exe&quot; to &quot;bin\Debug\My Dream.exe&quot;. The process cannot access the file &#39;bin\Debug\My Dream.exe&#39; because it is being used by another process.&quot;

Using Process Explorer, I see that MyApplication.exe was out but System process still uses it although I stopped debug before.
Whenever I change my code and start debug it is going to happen. If I copy project to USB and debug, it runs OK.

Why? How can I fix this error?

I use Window 7 Professional. With Xp I have never got this error.

Error: Cannot access file bin/Debug/... because it is being used by another process

One of the extensions listed in Visual Studio (2012 for me) is the &quot;Microsoft Advertising SDK for Windows 8.1&quot;. I like to uninstall extensions I don&#39;t need, but this one won&#39;t allow me. if I hover the (enabled!) button it says in a tooltip:

&gt; This product cannot be uninstalled via extensions and updates

It looks like this:

![extensions][1]

On second inspection I see a similar (more helpful) message bottom right:

&gt; You need to use the Programs and Features pane in the Windows Control Panel to remove this extension.

Easy enough, no? But it&#39;s not there!

![uninstalls][2]

Or:

![uninstalls search][3]

&lt;strike&gt;In addition to the instructions on screen I also searched. The only helpful source was [this MSDN page][4] that says basically the same thing.&lt;/strike&gt; *Link is now broken*.

&lt;strike&gt;Commenters mentioned that [the extension web page][5] (see &quot;Reviews&quot; and &quot;Q AND A&quot; tabs) has a few similar complaints. I&#39;ve cross-posted this question there as well.&lt;/strike&gt; *Link is now broken, but if you search others are complaining still on the MSDN forums*.

In any case: is there an easy way to uninstall this extension?
