Yes indeed it is:

 - Right Click project
 - Select Properties
 - Select Configuration Properties
 - General
 - Platform Toolset

When you get to Platform Toolset, click on the `v110` value which will be in the right column.  You will see a drop down appear which will allow you to select `v90`, `v100`, or `inherit`.  Of course, `v100` is the correct answer.  Once `v100` is selected, I don&#39;t believe you can back to `v110` from within VS 2010.  You would have to once again open in in VS 2012 to move it back to `v110`.

Which is the best ORM tool available for Android? 

I am seeing ORMlite and ActiveAndroid are the most discussed across and a friend of mine suggested me to use GreenDAO. So looking for some knowledge resource which can help me in Decision Making?

Features I am looking to judge are freely available (open source), good documentation, active forums, stable version available, etc, which ever required for developer.




Green DAO vs ORM lite vs Active Android

I want to set the minimum date the user can choose in a DatePicker to the current date. I&#39;ve tried this:

    DatePicker datePicker = (DatePicker) findViewById(R.id.event_date);
    datePicker.setMinDate(System.currentTimeMillis());

That gives me the following exception:

    12-01 12:23:31.226: E/AndroidRuntime(10311): Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: fromDate: Sat Dec 01 12:23:31 EST 2012 does not precede toDate: Sat Dec 01 12:23:31 EST 2012

How do I do this?


How to set minimum DatePicker date to current date

I have a solution initially created using VS2010. When I opened it using VS 2012, it asked me to do some conversion, which I agreed. Now I&#39;m using VS 2010 to open the solution again, and when I tried to build it gave an error:

&gt;error MSB8008: Specified platform toolset (v110) is not installed or invalid. Please make sure that a supported PlatformToolset value is selected

How can I fix it? For example, is there a way to change the `platform toolset` to v100 again?

I use a color theme with a very dark background, which works great except that VS2010 uses the default insertion point mouse cursor when the mouse is over the editor pane, and that cursor is black&amp;nbsp;&amp;mdash; making it nearly impossible to see (literally impossible if the background is actually black as opposed to just very dark).

Is there a straightforward way to tell VS2010 to use a light version of the insertion point mouse cursor instead?

Things I&#39;ve tried so far:

1. I installed the [Visual Studio Color Theme Editor][1] (which enables theming of the rest of the UI, as opposed to just the editor) in hopes that it would do this automatically if I used one of its dark themes, but no such luck.

2. I tried using different mouse pointers in Control Panel, but even though the cursor changed in some cases (for instance, if I picked one of the &quot;very large&quot; schemes), it was still black and so nearly invisible.

Make insertion mouse cursor visible in dark Visual Studio editor

I have about a dozen Visual Studio 2010 projects I&#39;ve been working on that are versioned in a TFS repository. Recently I went on a vacation and upgraded my computer&#39;s OS to Windows 7 64 bit.

I&#39;ve reinstalled Visual Studio, and I can connect to my Team Foundation Server and see my projects...only my bindings aren&#39;t working correctly. Most of the time none of my files seem to be under source control, but in a couple of projects my source control bindings are OK in the root folder, but not working in subfolders off the project root.

I&#39;ve tried undoing the binding, opening from source control, and deleting the folder and doing a get latest version. None of these has fixed the problem.

Any thoughts on restoring my bindings?

**UPDATE**

After poking around I can see there seems to be an extra folder in the path of my &quot;invalid&quot; projects...I&#39;ve got no idea how it got in there, but this seems to be throwing off my mappings.

Re-establish TFS source control bindings

I&#39;m using time.h in C++ to measure the timing of a function. 

    clock_t t = clock();
    someFunction();
    printf(&quot;\nTime taken: %.4fs\n&quot;, (float)(clock() - t)/CLOCKS_PER_SEC);

however, I&#39;m always getting the time taken as 0.0000. clock() and t when printed separately, have the same value. I would like to know if there is way to measure the time precisely (maybe in the order of nanoseconds) in C++ . I&#39;m using VS2010.

Instead of [SetUp] and [TearDown] in Nunit what is the alternative in Visual Studio Ultimate 2010 Unit Testing. In Nunit you can imagine setup and teardown methods are as constructors and destructors for the tests in our class.

I would prefer to have Emacs keybindings in MSVS. In MSVS 2008, this was natively supported, and in MSVS2010 there was an extension to achieve this

http://blogs.msdn.com/b/visualstudio/archive/2010/09/01/emacs-emulation-extension-now-available.aspx

Can i install this extension in MSVS 2012? (I have thus far been unsuccessful...) Is there another way to achieve Emacs keybindings?


Emacs Keybindings in Visual Studio 2012 or 2013

I have been having issues with Intellisense in Microsoft [Visual Studio 2012][1]. I will be working in a project, editing code and whatnot (after a period of time, anywhere from 5&amp;nbsp;minutes to over an hour) and all of a sudden, no more code suggestions or intellisense. Both seem to stop working completely at the same time.

The only solution that I have tried is to reset all my settings, close out of Visual Studio completely and reopen the project again. Is there a better solution or an update that will fix this?

Why does intellisense and code suggestion stop working when Visual Studio is open?

I am finding it really hard to code using the **black theme** given in the `visual studio 2012` IDE. Is there anyway i could get back the older grey theme or is there anyway i could make it look a bit more whiter ?

Microsoft Visual Studio Change Default Theme

In Visual Studio, if I have a code file open, I can press &lt;kbd&gt;CTRL&lt;/kbd&gt; + &lt;kbd&gt;M&lt;/kbd&gt; or &lt;kbd&gt;CTRL&lt;/kbd&gt; + &lt;kbd&gt;M&lt;/kbd&gt; + &lt;kbd&gt;O&lt;/kbd&gt; to collapse all code blocks, regions, namespaces, etc.

How to I do the opposite and expand everything?

I have Googled this, but cannot seem to find a shortcut that works!

I maintain a large WPF application which I inherited from another developer. I use ClickOnce to publish it. Suddenly, today I got an error message:
Error	2	Cannot publish because a project failed to build.		1	1	
Error	3	An error occurred while signing: Failed to sign bin\Debug\app.publish\\setup.exe. SignTool Error: No certificates were found that met all the given criteria.	

I do have a file called SomeName.snk, which is referred in project settings, Signing tab. I have no idea what happened today that caused the problem.
I use VS 2012.
