Building Blocks

So I’ve started some experiments on VS2010 RC1. I plan to post more about them later (MVC.Net 2 things mostly). But I noticed when I was going through the different project types that there is a F# tutorial with VS2010.

I though Great! Really nice idea to have an easy accessible introduction to the programming environment and language available directly in the product.

However I was let back when I started it this weekend. It’s not a tutorial, its not even an introduction. It’s just a cheat sheet for the F# language syntax.

It’s not a bad cheat-sheet. I got mostly everything I needed from it. But I just wish they did more with this. Or just move the cheat sheet online, and reference it. This is just something in between.

I keep forgetting to make this setting when I configure a new development environment.

Visual studio Test results setting

The default setting for this is 25, meaning that visual studio will keep the 25 last test results for the specific test project. With many test-projects and especially if you work in several branches with testing the amount of storage the tests results require can be quite substantial. Especially if you run tests in win-forms applications that have a lot of graphics.
