I am using Visual Studio 2013 and tried to do this walk through How To: Enable WIF Tracing. But I did not find Identity and Access under Solution Explorer. So how do I enable WIF tracing in Visual Studio 2013.
I even added the xml in the System.Diagnostics section and created the folder C:\logs\, but did not find anything in that folder after logged in. Can someone please enlighten me as to what am I missing?
The Microsoft example should work. System.IdentityModel is the one for .NET 4.5. Does your app (app pool identity) have access to the c:\logs folder ? The Tracing thing is not WIF related (it works for WCF and othe rbuilt-in .NET stuff as well) so if you copy/pasted the example your should be ready to go...

I am developing a Visual Basic project in Visual Studio 2010 that uses ArcObjects. (I have ArcGIS 10.3 for Desktop.) I am getting the error "'RuntimeManager' is not declared. It may be inaccessible due to its protection level." A previous answer, Esri ArcObjects--Esri.ArcGIS.Version assembly, recommended adding a reference to Esri.ArcGIS.Version by clicking on Project, Add Reference, selecting it under .NET and clicking OK. I have tried to do this, but it's not under .NET. What can I do to make it available?
You should be able to find it if you use the Browse option.
The ESRI.ArcGIS.Version.dll file should be under your DeveloperKit installation folder. For me it is:
C:\Program Files (x86)\ArcGIS\DeveloperKit10.2\DotNet
in a project I am working on, I need to use a java webservice that has been created by another company. Each time I try to reference the "wsdl" of this webservice, in order to import all the information, my Visual Studio crashes. This happens in VS 2010, VS2012, and also adding service reference, or web reference doesn't change anything.
Has this occured to anybody else ?
The reason Visual Studio was crashing, was that the WSDL did contain a circular reference. Once this had been fixed, I managed to import the WSDL correctly.
This webpage might talk about this problem, though it seems quite old.

I'm re-writing a console application using Visual Studio 2010. The original application was written using Visual Studio 2008 and works OK, but has no tests associated with it. Hence, the idea of re-writing it with tests.
Both applications are working with a Sharepoint 2007 site.
The project compiles but when I try and run it the code below is throwing errors.
SPSite spsite = null;
SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate() {
spsite = new SPSite("http://sharepointdev");
});
return spsite;
I'm running this on Windows Server 2008. I've set the platform target of the build to be x86 (this is in the properties of my project) and in Security I've checked that this is a full trust application. I'm also running the project as an administrator. I've also set the .NET Framework to be 3.5
Is it just a case that SharePoint 2007 just doesn't want to play with Visual Studio 2010, or is there something else I've not yet considered?
I've tried searching on the web and stackoverflow but all the articles I've seen deal with trying to get Visual Studio 2010 to work with Sharepoint 2010.
The exact error I get is 'Object reference not set to an instant of an object' with the debugger high-lighting the SPSecurity call.
If I just use this code
using(SPSite spsite = new SPSite("http://sharepointdev")){
Then I get a FileNotFoundException, which isn't exactly true! I've got plenty of applications that do find a site using that URL. What I suspect the error message is trying to say is that my 2010 application is not being allowed to access the site, but I've not found any clues as to why that should be.
Any clues, hints or suggestions gratefully accepted.
EDIT
I've lifted the code from my VS 2010 project and dropped it into a new VS 2008 project and it ran straight-away.
FURTHER EDIT
I created a simple little console application in VS 2010. By default it uses .NET Framework 4, I had to set this to .NET Framework 3.5. I also set the platform target to be 'Any CPU' and it works. This makes me wonder if there is an issue with the Test Project associated with my first application?
I re-created the console application but this time without a Test Project associated with it (the test project was a class library and worked with NUnit). It ran with no problems. I guess the problem lies within the test project and something there that the solution doesn't like. Probably there's a build there it doesn't like
TL;DR; answer: Switch to Any CPU build - don't choose x86.
I've run into this problem before with a console utility. I got the same FileNotFound error but it's referring to the DLL, not your SharePoint site. Digging a bit I discovered a deeper error of BadImageFormat and realized it was complaining about a DLL or EXE. I guessed it was due to the linking from x86 to MSIL. There's a lot of things that have to happen to marshal calls between the two and I guess it led to an incompatibility. When I switched it (and verified all my support library projects) built to MSIL/Any CPU the application worked with no problems and no other changes.
I use Visual Studio 2010 to develop for SharePoint 2007 all day for a long time now and the only problems I've encountered aren't related to that combination. More often than not it's a quirk of a 3rd party add-on I'm using. For almost all of my development I start with the WSP Builder templates but they are buggy and have a few quirks you have to work around (some severe enough to take down your SharePoint server) so I don't blame VS 2010 directly.
(I'm running Windows7 and using Visual Studio 2010.)
I'm using ClamAV in a .NET Azure project, and I'm running into side-by-side errors whenever I run clamd.exe, either through my code or by running clamd.exe on it's own.
In Visual Studio 2010 I am getting the error:
Win32Exception was unhandled The application has failed to start
because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the
application event log or use the command-line sxstrace.exe tool for
more detail
And in Event Viewer I get:
Activation context generation failed for
"C:\Users\pconerly\code\AntiVirus_source\WorkerRole\clamav\clamd.exe".
Dependent Assembly
Microsoft.VC80.CRT,processorArchitecture="x86",publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",type="win32",version="8.0.50727.6195"
could not be found. Please use sxstrace.exe for detailed diagnosis.
When I searched for "8.0.50727.6195" it led me to the 2005 redist, so I downloaded it
http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=3387
After a restart I am still getting the side-by-side error. Additionally, I think that the redist installer is not completing it's install-- like it's seeing visual studio 2010 and saying "oh, that's good enough, no need for me to install". I haven't tried uninstalling 2010 and using 2005, because the rest of my Dev team is using VS 2010.
What's the deal? How can this be fixed? I'm ready to pull out my hair.
The link Timores posted is the update for Visual Studio. The actual redistributable package is this:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=26347
The version you mention is actually at found here
Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Service Pack 1 MFC Security Update
Timores is right: the redist should be this one, which is related to this KB entry
As you can see there, msvcr80.dll has been updated to version 8.0.50727.6195.
It is the "security update" of the "SP1" of the 2005 C++ runtime..
Your exe probably requires (through an internal manifest) that specific version.
If it is not found on the system (there's a lot of places searched for) nor in the current folder (with a suitable manifest aside) it won't load the exe since it is not able to "activate the context", that is load the specific DLL required in the manifest.
I had similar issues when my system got updated (windows updates) and the newly compiled EXEs were not working with an old-versioned runtime placed on the same folder.
I had to update msvcr80.dll and its manifest (which I found deep in \windows\winsxs) to make everything work.
Context activation is a tricky matter, anyway :)

I'm using DB4O on a new project I'm playing with and it would help me no end if I was able to use the Object Manager Enterprise utility. I understand it's only available as a VS plugin, so does anyone know whether such a plugin is / will be available for Visual Studio 2010, or is there another way to get the utility?
Currently there's no Object Manager version available for Visual Studio 2010. =(
A few suggestions for alternatives:
When you still have Visual Studio 2008 or 2005 installed, you can use the existing Object Manager for these versions.
You can use LINQPad for db4o as suggested here on SO. However this only works together when you load your domain model into LINQPad
You could use the Object Manager plugin for Eclipse. This version is distributed with the Java-version of db4o. So you need to download Eclipse and the java-db4o distribution. However this version of the Object Manager doesn't fully understand the .NET types, so some object are correctly displayed.
OME will be available for VS2010 when we introduce .Net 4.0 support.
Meanwhile you can try to install the OME that comes with db4o .Net 3.5 package and change the configuration file OMAddin.AddIn from "%mydocuments%\Visual Studio 2008\Addins\" to "%mydocuments%\Visual Studio 2010\Addins\" (if this folder doesn't exist just create it)
Then, open OMAddin.AddIn and change the line:
<Version>9.0</Version>
to
<Version>10.0</Version>
Now after starting VS 2010 OME should work and you should be able to see its toolbar (I have this procedure with VS 2010 beta2 and it worked).
Best
