How to ignore whitespace formatting in merge conflicts in TFS in Visual Studio 2010.
Posted by Brian Seekford in C# on December 2, 2011
Hate when you see all Blue because someone reformatted the code?
Fix it.
In Visual Studio, select Tools / Options / Source Control / Visual Studio Team Foundation System and click the Configure User Tools button.
In the dialog, Add an item with the following settings.
- Extension : .*
- Operation : Compare
- Command : C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\diffmerge.exe
- Arguments : %1 %2 %6 %7 %5 /ignorespace
If you are 64 bit,
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\diffmerge.exe
Happy Coding!
Visual Studio 2010 – Intellisense nonsense
Posted by Brian Seekford in .NET Development on June 6, 2010
I started getting really annoyed with the Intellisense in VS 2010. It doesn’t automatically highlight the best match for what I am typing. It seems to loosely highlight it, but hitting enter or . doesn’t act upon it.
Well, I figured out how to make it work, but requires a small change in workflow. Hit TAB. Start typing, and when the box highlights AROUND, because it doesn’t seem to select it, hit the TAB key.
Easy solution to an annoying feature. I switch between 2008 and 2010 so much I can’t remember if 2010 has always been this way, or I pissed it off.
Annoying Intellisense irritating me

Visual Studio 2010 release date announced – .NET framework 4.0
Posted by Brian Seekford in .NET Development, C# on December 8, 2009
I found a link to the Register that mentions that Visual Studio 2010 will be released on March 22nd of 2010. The beta is currently available for download from Microsoft
I can’t wait for the new Entity Framework with 4.0 ; they fix so many annoyances I have with the current version.
It appears that they will be changing the packages they sell now. I know they are transitioning us folks with Team Developer licenses up to the Ultimate license, which is really cool. They are also giving us full TFS server licenses gratis as well.
Quote from the Register’s site:
Microsoft will chop nine Visual Studio SKUs down to four, with the focus on ALM. Microsoft does not seem to be tampering with the Express editions, which add another five SKUs.
Visual Studio Development Edition, Database Edition, Architect Edition and Test Edition will go. These will give way to Visual Studio 2010 Professional priced $799 and no MSDN subscription option, Professional priced $1,199 for a new MSDN subscription, Premium priced $5,469 for a new MSDN subscription, and the new completely Ultimate Visual Studio SKU that will be priced $11,924 for a new MSDN subscription.
