I am pleased to announce that I was invited to join JetBrains Development Academy and accepted the invitation.

First you need to un-install the Silverlight 2.0 Beta 1 SDK from the build server! Then you can download the Microsoft Silverlight Tools Beta 2 for Visual Studio 2008 and extract it on the server, there you will find the file silverlight_sdk.msi, that will allow you to install Silverlight 2.0 Beta 2 SDK.

Now if you followed my post MSBuild and Silverlight 2.0 Beta 1 running in Team City, then you know about the issue:

After one comment of Chris Walquist on one of my last post about Team City integration of NCover here is the way I run NCover through MSBuild in Team City.

First I need to import the Task of NCover.

In my effort to bring a good development environment for the next version of Tech Head Brothers portal, in which we should be (at the moment) three to develop, I went on with the integration of NDepend, the wonderful tool of Patrick Smacchia, with the just as well JetBrains Team City build management server.

As said in my last post I have defined three builds type

I finally found some time this evening to re-configure Team City and adapt my MSBuild script to be able to achieve the following build configuration for Tech Head Brothers portal:

I finally managed to integrate those two wonderful tools Team City and NDepend as you can see on the following picture:

I go crazy with a stupid error!

I try to have my web deployment project use the property MSBuildProjectDirectory like this:

For the development of the next version of Tech Head Brothers I wanted to have a continuous integration server running for our small team. I used for that Team City 3 from JetBrains.

Continuous integration is very nice and works very good. Then I discovered another nice feature directly built in Team City: Duplicate Finder. Ok you might use other tools to do that, but it is there so just use it in two clicks.

Starting the development of the new Tech Head Brothers in a remote multi developers environment I wanted to have some tooling to ease our work. For sure we have:

1. A code repository: Subversion installed using VisualSVN server Continue reading

When I started to work on the new version of Tech Head Brothers I decided to use the new version of the unit testing framework from Microsoft. Before making this decision I read that it was much better and faster in several places. As I also wanted to get code coverage I thought it was a good idea.

I also had to setup a version control system and decided to use subversion with the facility of the free VisualSVN Server. Very simple way to setup in less than 10 min (including download time) a subversion repository on a Windows server. I highly recommend it ! I am also now, for some months, using VisualSVN that provides a seamless integration between subversion and Visual Studio 2005 and 2008. VisualSVN Limited offered a license of VisualSVN to me and my brother. Thanks a lot, really appreciated! And now at innoveo solutions, my company, we are also using it.
