Although the style builder enables you to create and edit in-line styles, there's no way to edit the styles that are inherited from a linked style sheet. The new CSS Properties window provides this capability — it enables you to edit both in-line styles and styles in linked style sheets.
The CSS Properties window is an add-in package to Visual Studio 2005. It does not change the behavior of any feature in Visual Studio 2005; it simply adds additional functionality specific to editing CSS in Design view. | Microsoft |

| DevPartner FaultSimulator (try catch block validator) | A significant portion of a .NET application’s code – often 20-40% – is dedicated to error handling. Yet development and quality assurance teams tend to focus on finding and fixing defects in feature code, not error handling code. This is not surprising, since determining how an application will behave during environmental situations like an unplugged network cable or guessing at potential hacker approaches is time consuming and not productive. But this testing is necessary to build secure applications that perform as planned.
Compuware now offers a solution to this long-standing problem. DevPartner Fault Simulator is a unique tool using fault simulation to emulate real-world application errors. This allows developers and QA analysts alike to work in a predictable, repeatable environment to proactively analyze, debug and test application error-handling code. And because all faults are tested accurately in a simulated environment, you stay confident that your application code remains safe, production ready, and will perform as planned.

| DevPartner Security Checker | | Compuware |
| DevPartner SecurityChecker | Most security solutions for Internet applications are focused on the production environment, checking and controlling security issues after applications are in production. They do little, however, to build security into applications from the start.
Developers now need a security assessment tool that can quickly detect, assess and record security vulnerabilities--and pinpoint their location in source code—in development and QA environments.
DevPartner SecurityChecker is just the solution: a powerful security analysis tool that quickly scans, locates and fixes known and potential security vulnerabilities in ASP.NET applications written in either C# or Visual Basic .NET. DevPartner SecurityChecker automates detection processes through a combination of runtime, compile-time and integrity analyses that pinpoint the exact location of vulnerable source code and hard-to-find security problems. | Compuware |

The Mono runtime is self-contained and can be bundled with applications that require a small .NET runtime (4 megabytes for the VM, plus the core assemblies).
At this point it has a complete implementation of the core libraries, Windows.Forms, System.Drawing, System.DirectoryServices, System.XML, System.Data and the associated data providers and ASP.NET.
Mono includes a cross platform GUI library called Gtk# that works on Windows, Linux and OS/X.
Support for the 2.0 APIs is partially available.
The Mono Migration Analizer tool (Moma) can assist developers in identifying the portability issues that their application would encounter (dependencies on 2.0 APIs that are not completed, special portability issues, and features that are not available in cross-platform applications). | Novell |

To create a best of breed development environment for Unix systems for C# and Mono.
Since its written in Gtk#, and we like Gtk# and we get good support from Gtk#, most likely it will add functionality to improve the Gtk# experience.
Today the IDE is a simple IDE and on Unix does not do GUI design, but we plan on adding a GUI designer.
We want to integrate the tools we have been building so far, so things like MonoDoc, NUnit-Gtk and the debugger should target MonoDevelop. | Community Projekt |

One table is for strings from designer windows - this table contains all strings properties which have the localizable attribute. The other table is for strings from the source code. Select strings in the source code for translation with a simple mouse click. Strings which do not require translation can be marked as hidden. Add new languages with a simple dialog. For each additional language, a column is added to both of the tables to show the text in that language. You can edit texts in all languages directly in the tables, or export them to Excel for offline editing. Future versions may provide support for additional project types. | Softwarebüro Jollans |

| SSW Code Auditor | Keep your code *healthy* with SSW Code Auditor
Are you looking to eradicate bugs and ensure consistency? SSW Code Auditor is a tool that allows developers to take control of your code, ensuring large, complex source code can be simplified, cleaned and maintained. The built-in rules focus on the most popular .NET languages (C#, VB.NET) for both Windows Forms and ASP.NET; however, the flexibility of SSW Code Auditor allows the developer to add their own rules to target any language in any text file.
As a project or company grows, managing code standards throughout your team becomes virtually impossible. Consistent code is crucial to future development and maintenance. SSW Code Auditor lets you take control of your code and automatically review your web apps and projects - giving you more opportunity to spend time where it really matters.
Here at SSW, we face the problem of maintaining our standards across nearly five thousand web pages, over twenty active projects in both Visual Basic (6 and .NET) and C#. There comes a point where a tool to check our work is needed, this tool is SSW Code Auditor.
SSW Code Auditor utilises the power of Regular Expressions to audit your code. This powerful feature permits the user to write their own set of rules and have different rules for different projects.
| SSW |
| SSW Code Auditor | Maintaining consistent quality code across a large team is difficult. Even when standards are in place developers can make mistakes that will slip through QA. SSW SQL Auditor, built in VB .NET, allows a developer to set SQL Server design rules and then check the database for code or design elements that ignores those rules. SSW SQL Auditor not only reports on design flaws, it also generates sample scripts that enable you to fix those flaws | Superior Software for Windows |

| Vanatec Open Access | The usual DataSet in .NET applications creates problems for developers who want to use the full power of object-oriented programming to solve their business problems. Using business objects to organize the behavior they are calling on a proven and powerful approach.
However this architectural approach is difficult to reconcile with DataSet’s rigid row and column structure. Instead of DataSet, use Vanatec’s powerful object-relational mapping
to transparently map between your business objects and your relational tables.
Install Vanatec OpenAccess on your machine and you experience that hand-and-glove fit of business objects and relational tables. Plug it into Visual Studio. Turn it on. And you’re ready for anything.
That’s because with Vanatec OpenAccess, you’ll find all of the O/R mapping essentials built right in: transparent persistence, database flexibility and data¬base independence, reverse mapping, disconnected data support. And most importantly, it separates the storage details from your object model, simplifying your code and boosting productivity.
Transparent Persistence
Vanatec OpenAccess is an object-relational mapping persistence framework that offers transparent persistence through post-compilation code enhance¬ment. As such, adding persistence functionality is non-intrusive to the object model. Custom attributes are used to assign attributes to classes. With custom attributes classes can be declared as persistent, and for example indexes can be defined for class fields. With Vanatec OpenAccess, classes do not have to inherit from a specific base class or implement a specific interface to be persis¬tent. Vanatec OpenAccess does not put any restrictions on the object model and supports inheritance, interfaces and .NET Framework collections.
Database Flexibility & Database Independence
You don’t live in a vacuum, and neither will your .NET application. Using Vana¬tec OpenAccess, your application easily runs with various database branches, various table layouts, or even various database technologies. Only one single file needs to be edited. Can life be easier – for both you and the database administrator?
Connecting your .NET application to different databases is easy in part be¬cause Vanatec OpenAccess separates the storage details from your object model. That simplifies your code and boosts productivity on the one hand. On the other, it means more flexibilty: Working with various databases, changes in the table layout or data model don‘t cause changes in the object model. And vice versa.
Reverse Mapping with Legacy Databases
Vanatec OpenAccess detects your existing legacy data model the moment you connect it, creates object models, and even lets you edit the object model exactly how you want it. Meet Vanatec’s Reverse Mapping wizard, your legacy database’s new best friend.
The reverse mapping experience begins the minute you connect your Visual Studio project to the legacy database using the Reverse Mapping wizard. Like magic, Vanatec OpenAccess recognizes the data model and creates an object model. Then you can start developing your new .NET application.
Disconnected Data Support
Whether you’re thinking of mobile devices, web applications, or replications - you need disconnected data management you can count on. Anywhere, any¬time. In these cases, it isn’t possible to maintain a database connection for the duration of a transaction. For this situation, Vanatec OpenAccess offers ObjectContainer. It frees objects from databases and uses optimistic transac¬tions. It tracks which objects have been changed or are new. A callback lets you resolve any conflict.
Tight Integration with Microsoft Visual Studio
Using Vanatec OpenAccess is easy in part because you can continue using the same application you already know - Microsoft Visual Studio. And when it comes to data access, simply choose OpenAccess in the Visual Studio menu. Fully integrated into Visual Studio, Vanatec OpenAccess takes action on the data access and it gives you the programming productivity you need to develop sophisticated applications in no time.

Base Assemblies (*.exe, *.dll), resource files (*.resX, *.resources) and “strong named” assemblies can be localized. Automatic re-use of existing translations reduces the localization effort about 90% after the initial translation.
After the translation of the base assembly the corresponding satellite assembly (*.resources.dll) can be created by a click on one button.
Recurring tasks may be automated via script file. Special import functions enable you to benefit from existing translations. In that way you enhance the quality of your terminology and reduce your localization costs and time-to-market. Other new features in version 6 are
• New Look and Feel for an enhanced simplicity of the handling
• Exchange of Bitmap graphics in binary files
• TMX Import and Export
• Statistic function with calculation of expense for proposal preparation
• Automatic placing of accelerators for dialogues and menus
• Layout-Reset of the position of the sizes of controls and dialogues

| Visual XSD 2.0 | Visual XSD is a Microsoft xsd.exe add-on that offers and visual (windows) interface to Microsoft xsd.exe utility.
xsd.exe, which is a part of Microsoft .NET SDK, is an excellent XML Schema Definition tool, it generates XML schema or common language runtime classes from XDR, XML, and XSD files, or from classes in a runtime assembly. The xsd.exe only offers a command line interface, something that is unnatural for developers used to an IDE.
The purpose of the Visual XSD program is simply to fill this gap, and give developers easier and faster access to the xsd.exe program.
Visual XSD offers
A user-friendly interface to the xsd.exe utility.

| WSCF (Web Services Contract-First) | There has been a lot of buzz around contract-first Web services design & development lately. A number of people think that it is a good thing, and that we finally should reach a state where we all can live and breath it. But most people have been complaining about the lack of tool support for the so called first step of the two-step-approach:
* Design your contracts messages and interface
* Generate code from the contract
Version 0.51, in addition to enhanced code generation from XSD and WSDL, offers a simple yet powerful WSDL Wizard that abstracts away all the nitty-gritty details of WSDL and therefore does not give room for making errors and wrong assumptions just by trying to use and applying everything that can be done stated by the original WSDL specification.
Additionally, we are finally offering a command line interface to the code generation engine (wscf.exe). WSCF can thus be included in your batch scripts and/or build process. | thinktecture |
