Title: tiDE Team
Post by: SirCmpwn on November 01, 2010, 06:45:06 pm
Who wants in?  You must be proficient in C#, and have Visual Studio 2010 installed.

Post by: MRide on November 01, 2010, 06:52:19 pm
I can't do this, but I'm curious, how different from C++ is C#?
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: SirCmpwn on November 01, 2010, 06:54:43 pm
It's quite a bit different, for one, C# is object oriented.
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: FinaleTI on November 01, 2010, 06:57:25 pm
For the time being, I can't help, but I am planning on learning C# soon, so...
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: SirCmpwn on November 01, 2010, 06:58:01 pm
Let me know when you've learned C#, I'd be happy for you to help.
Title: Re: tiDE Team

how different are java and c#?
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: SirCmpwn on November 01, 2010, 06:59:38 pm
Very similar.  If you know Java, you should be able to easily learn C#.
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: nemo on November 01, 2010, 07:01:14 pm
well i don't have visual studio so, though i'd love to help, i can't :/
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: SirCmpwn on November 01, 2010, 07:03:20 pm
It's free in express edition, but I'm not sure if it has TFS (also required, for the record).

Goody. I'm taking AP Computer Science this year and we're going to be using Java, plus I got a book on C#.

TFS = Team Foundation Server?

I do in fact know Java though.  What is TFS and is it in the free version?
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: SirCmpwn on November 01, 2010, 07:11:51 pm
TFS = Team Foundation Server?
Yep, it's like source control.  Graphmastur, I think it may be.  You'll have to figure it out on your own, though, look around Google. I can only help with the paid version.
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on November 01, 2010, 07:12:23 pm
Sorry if this isn't very on-topic, but at first when I saw TFS it reminded me The F***ing S*** :P

I don't believe the express version has TFS support, but I could be wrong.

Post by: Madskillz on November 01, 2010, 07:15:47 pm
I've had over 3 years of Java programming...and I've been meaning to get into C# for XNA development. I'm rather busy at the moment and am stuck with my dual bootable mac. Maybe once I got a machine dedicated to Windows 7 I could offer more help.
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: SirCmpwn on November 01, 2010, 07:16:42 pm
Madskillz, great.
FinaleTI, Graphmastur, if the free version doesn't, I fully recommend the paid version, it is an amazing IDE even outside the context of working on this project.
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: Deep Toaster on November 01, 2010, 07:17:52 pm
I know Java, and we've got several books on C# (don't know why; it's not like anyone in our family uses it :D). I'm installing Visual Studio right now (it's Visual C# 2010 Express, right?), so I can help...
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: SirCmpwn on November 01, 2010, 07:20:53 pm
Deep Thought, you got the IDE right.  Perhaps you can be our guinea pig for TFS on the free version.
For the record, all of you should be extremely comfortable using C# before actually touching tiDE :)
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: LordConiupiter on November 01, 2010, 07:29:31 pm
I already have 3 years programming experience in c#, and I used VCS Express all the time. It works great! And I don't want to spend such a lot of money to my hobby... I have also recently installed VS 2010, with a trial period of 90 days, from which there are still some 80 days remaining I guess. I would like to help!
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: SirCmpwn on November 01, 2010, 07:33:34 pm
LordConiupiter, I'd love to have you on the team.  However, TFS does not work outside of paid versions of Visual Studio.  If you are still in school, however, you can look into DreamSpark (https://www.dreamspark.com/default.aspx), which can hook you up with Visual Studio 2010 Professional for free (legit, too).
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: SirCmpwn on November 26, 2010, 08:45:21 pm
Yay!  I got the TFS repository merged with subversion, so you can use both to work on tiDE.  That means you can combine TortoiseSVN (http://tortoisesvn.net/) with SharpDevelop 4.0 (http://www.icsharpcode.net/OpenSource/SD/Download/) to work on tiDE.
TortoiseSVN is a subversion client for Windows that integrates with Windows Explorer, and SharpDevelop 4.0 is an open-source .NET IDE similar to Visual Studio, that has support for Visual Studio 2010 project files, and integrates with TortoiseSVN.  This means that you can work on tiDE for free! ^-^
Title: Re: tiDE Team

I know, which saddens me.  I sent him a PM, so if he comes back, he is welcome to help.  Anyone who wants to help can contact me and I'd be happy to get you set up on source control.

Yeah I hope he didn't ditch calc stuff. His HoMM RPG saw no updates since the end of the contest. Then his activity dwindled. Hopefully he returns.

yahooo! And because I'm working with Eeems on oasis which is also a svn. I just don't know if I'll have time, or C# experience. I'll just let this project take it's course. Good luck, SirCmpwn!

I could help, have Visual Studio C#. HOWEVER, I have limited knowledge on C#.

Are you using the Designer for the GUI?

I really wanna help if you need a mediocre programmer of C# in the team :)

EDIT: I'm now opening VS to get more comfortable with it, so I can help you more Sir. YAY AN EXCUSE to get back to C# after 2 months without touching it!

Juju, I would be happy to have you on the team!  Unfortunately, Visual Studio 2008 is incompatible with 2010 project files.  I would recommend SharpDevelop 4.0+Tortoise SVN, which will work fine.

In fact, Juju helped me this day with going from Visual Studio to SharpDev, since SharpDev doesn't make automatic statements for Windows Forms, unlike Visual Sudio (using system; using system.windows.forms;)

I could get Visual Studio 2010 from DreamSpark, but, unfortunately, my school deprecated the usage of Groupwise in favor of some email address-less internal messaging system thingy this year...

(Also, in Quebec, there are one additional level of school between hi school and college: professional school. If you take those classes you can major in something too but it is mostly for manual work, like soldering, or computer help stuff that doesn't involve creation. It's cheaper and usually lasts shorter, but sometimes you have summer school.)

No! Of course not, it was just a matter of time since he's just PM'd me.

If someone were to be kicked, then it would be me, the one with less C# knowledge.

Ah ok I'm glad to hear. Some people ignores PM/e-mails completely, even on purpose, sometimes, or just won't respond at all. That can be bad because it sounds like the person doesn't care.

Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: Juju on December 05, 2010, 05:56:53 pm
I agree, Skype is perfect for this genre of conversations. Phones would be just too expensive for some people and it would be hard to talk to more than 3 persons at the same time. Or maybe even TeamSpeak, if you want to talk like you can join/part IRC.

And yeah, this is the end of the semester, lots of exams and all to prepare, so it will be best to begin after the end of school, which is sometime around next week for me.

Wouldn't holding a convo on Skype/phone/teamspeak/vent be hard with everyone speaking a different language than english as native language, though?

So I officially joined the team yesterday. Today I went to the technical support of my school and they say they won't give out email addresses anymore... So I no longer can sign up to Dreamspark to get Visual Studio 2010... I should ask the technician in charge of the MSDNAA program to see if they have any VS2010 ISOs. They give out VS2005 and 2008 through MSDNAA but not 2010...

Ouch, sorry to hear, I hope you can manage to get a copy in some ways... it would suck if you had to quit the tiDE dev team due to not being able to get a copy of VS2010...
Well, yeah, I could always install SharpDevelop if I can't get VS2010, but the tech guy said he might add copies of VS2010 on the hard drives if it's available (which I'm fairly sure it is, since he would just download it from the Microsoft servers).

And about chatting, I have Skype, Google Chat (never really use it), MSN, Teamspeak, IRC, name it... So it's easy to get in touch with me. Also have a webcam if you want.

I'll do that. But I think it will be not too easy to find a date+time all people are available, since we're all in different time zones...

Hm, seems I have the same timezone as ScoutDavid and am 2 timezones away from SirCmpwn, so that's kinda OK, looks like LordConiupiter makes the problem by actually being in Europe, 6 timezones away. But still, I used to work with Europeans without problem.

I have nothing against religions, only against people who are in religions which require practice and then say they are not practicers. This is wrong.

I'm atheist and I've read the bible from first word to last twice. I know you have to practice. I've also read the Qu'ran, muslims need practice too.

Oh I meant ScoutDavid said he had something against people who have a religion (like catholics) and believe in something but don't go to church/pray. I think we have the right to freedom, too. Attacking Juju because he doesn't practice was uncalled for. Plus it's hard to go to church on a Sunday when you work all day long anyway. (Unless stores are closed on Sundays in your country)

ANyway, back on topic, this is the second last time Scout does this anyway on Omni. Else if he does it again Sir will have to use e-mail to contact him. Regardless of what happen, good luck setting up a time to discuss together about tiDE, people.

Bad grammar:

I have nothing against religions or people who are religious, I have something against the fact that a lot of people (not against people itself, I respect their opinion, but can't understand it) say they are religious and non-practicant. There are, indeed, religions which do not require practice, but Christiniamism does.

Concerning this, it's not against people itself. It's the 'movement' (I can't say it in English, it's like when lots of people start doing the same thing, a kind of revolution) I don't understand.

It's the same thing with football clubs: In my country people who are from one club say that people who are from other club are ****** and *******. I'm a football fan and I usually say: I have nothing against people who support football club X, only the club itself.

So, I hope you understand my grammar error which meant no harm.
I'm sorry Juju if you couldn't understand what I meant to say (which probably nobody did because the way the post was written is quite wrong).

I have an idea to get over this 'time we are available thing'.

We could make an EXCEL schedule, but it would be better if Sir said:

Who can?
a) day X, hours y
b) day X, hours y
c) day X, hours y
d) day X, hours y
e) day X, hours y

And each of us would say when we can. I think that's the best way of putting terms with this thing.


Once again, I apologize.

I see ScoutDavid, it sounded like you were attacking the person, not the idea. Just remember when you post about something you dislike that people do, you should maybe use "I hate when people do that" instead of "I hate people who do that", when you dislike the action. We tend to say the latter most of the time because it is shorter but it can make some people feel unwelcome or something. Anyway apology accepted, just be careful in the future.

No way. It's so hard to make a schedule that works with you and us due to different timetables.

Screw the call, this isn't going to work across so many timezones.  The basic idea is that your code must reflect that of Codeplexes.  I've been programming under source control for far too long to let something stupid like file conflicts ruin a project.  When you start up your IDE, you will get the latest version from SVN/TFS.  Before you close your IDE, you will commit/check-in your code.  If you make a major change or add a major feature, you should commit/check-in when you finish it, even if you aren't ready to stop working.  This is outrageously important.  Entire projects can become screwed when file conflicts aren't well handled.
If you have any other questions, or would like to talk about the project, please PM me.

Really? I didn't expect M$ to give away those. Does it let you program and stuff?  Or is source control the ability to code? I know they got some softwares that lets you view documents but not edit them, kinda like Adobe with Acrobat Reader.
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: Juju on December 30, 2010, 01:26:28 am
M$ even gives away a Visual Basic .NET and a C# compiler in your installation of the .NET framework. Visual Studio Express just gives out the text editor and the tools to work with those compilers. The Pro version give more fancy and obscure options to test your program and everything to work in teams and all.

Hello everybody! I am just posting to let you know I'll be working again on tiDE for now, my father FINALLY bought me Visual Studio Professional!

I'm so happy! I know it has source control, but still haven't figured out how to use it, in fact, I didn't notice many changes from the Express version...
Cool to hear! :D Good luck with it. :)

Reciting from memory, so forgive me if it's wrong.  You should click Team on the menu bar, and connect to team server.  Enter the information you see on Codeplexes source code page for TFS.

When I open project tiDE in this new program, it immediatly asks me for Username and Password :S
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: SirCmpwn on December 31, 2010, 06:01:49 pm
Use snd\username_cp, where username is your Codeplex username, and use your Codeplex password.

Yeah Sir, in the Source Control page, everything is detailedly explained. I have successfully connected to SVN, it's great!

Sorry for double post, but I can't upload stuff. I mean, I am connected to the server, but can't really upload things, I mean, I don't know how to. Anybody knows how to? I made changes, and would like to upload them.
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: jnesselr on January 01, 2011, 04:44:03 pm
The first error is due to the project not finding the main method.  Your project settings probably don't have it defined.

As for the second error, make sure you have proper privileges.  If you do have privileges to upload, then there's probably a way to do it inside whatever IDE you are using.

Post by: SirCmpwn on January 01, 2011, 07:20:41 pm
In Visual Studio, open Pending Changes, type a summary of your work, and click check in.
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: Munchor on January 01, 2011, 07:26:17 pm
Yeah, I already figured that out and uploaded :)

No one is to touch tiDE until we can talk about it.  I spent two hours fixing the source tree.  I'm not happy.  I thought I made it clear how important certain things were.

Well, good luck with your project. This is why team stuff is difficult. If you wanted, you could just write a program that ran on their system that force-uploaded/downloaded every hour.
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: SirCmpwn on January 06, 2011, 11:44:56 pm
I could, yes, but won't.  1) It's just wrong and 2) there would be all sorts of conflicts.
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: Juju on January 07, 2011, 01:08:11 am
Yeah, that thing is kinda hard to recover when you screw up, so now we know what to do next time.
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on January 07, 2011, 01:15:05 am
I hope you can manage to get it understood. Some stuff might be harder to understand for some people than others. I hope nothing too bad happens again in the future, though.

I personally don't like team projects much, but mostly for other reasons, such as how hard it can be to keep in touch and also people vanishing off the face of the Earth.
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: SirCmpwn on January 07, 2011, 05:37:50 pm
Okay, here's what needs to happen.  Each team member will follow these steps to fix the current issues.  You only have to do this once:
For Visual Studio 2010 Users:
1. Open Visual Studio.  Connect to Team Foundation Server using the same credentials as always.  If it does not automatically prompt you for your password, you can find this under the Team menu.  Connect to the Codeplex server.
2. Go to Source Control Explorer (this can be found under the View>Other Windows menu)
3. Expand tfs.codeplex.com\TFS14
4. Right click on tidenv, and select "Remove Mapping."  Click "Remove Mapping" in the dialog box that opens.
5. Go to your local copy of tiDE and delete the entire folder.  (For me, it's D:\tidenv).
6. Back in Visual Studio, right click on tidenv, and click "Get Latest Version"
7. In the dialog box that appears, enter D:\tidenv for the folder if you have a D: partition on your hard drive.  If you don't, use C:\tidenv.

This should fix the problems on your local machine.  This is how we will keep these problems from occurring again:
Every time you sit down to work on tiDE, you will follow these steps.  If you do not, we will get another problem like the one that required two hours of my time to fix.
1. Open Visual Studio.
2. Connect to Team Foundation Server, the same way as described above.
3. Open Source Control Explorer.
4. Expand tfs.codeplex.com\TFS14
5. Right click on tidenv and click "Get Latest Version"
6. Expand tidenv, and click on "tiDE"
7. In the right hand panel, double click on tiDE.sln to open the project
8. Code.  Make your changes to tiDE like you would a local project, and Visual Studio will automatically keep track of your changes.  Before you close Visual Studio, you must proceed to step 9.
9. If the Pending Changes panel is not visible to you, open it in the View>Other Windows menu.
10. Add a comment to the text box on top.  You should see a summary of your changes on the bottom panel of this window.  If you don't see this, make sure that the top icon of those on the left is selected.  If you should ever need to revert your changes to the server version, right click the appropriate file and click "Undo."
11. Once you have a comment, ensure that every file is selected, and click on Check-In.  You can quickly select all files by clicking the top file, Shift+Clicking the bottom file, and toggling the check mark on all of them at once.
12. After clicking check-in, your changes will be added to the server at Codeplex.  Even if a feature is unfinished, or you are only partially done working, please do this anyway.  You are now free to close Visual Studio.

I will add instructions for SharpDevelop users once I get them figured out.  I'm not too experienced with SharpDevelop on Source Control.

All of the team has been temporarily revoked write-access to the TFS server.  Once I get confirmation that you understand and will follow these instructions, I will grant write-access again.

tl;dr: This is important.  Read the whole damn thing.
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: Juju on January 08, 2011, 12:31:19 am
Thanks for these clear instructions, Sir.

Will do as soon as possible.
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: SirCmpwn on January 08, 2011, 02:04:59 am
Thanks for the response.  Just let me know when you have completed the first part and understand the second, and I'll grant you access.
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: LordConiupiter on January 08, 2011, 07:55:04 am
ok thanks! Last time I tried connecting to codeplex, I couldn't find the tide source control folder at all, but I hope that will be fixed now...
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: Munchor on January 08, 2011, 08:10:56 am
That's exactly what I did when I first uploaded changes. However, I used a build that was not correct, but everything was fixed now.

I also need to save it in D:\tidenv, since I have it Documents\Scout David\C#\tiDE. Thanks.

Post by: SirCmpwn on January 08, 2011, 10:58:05 am
Sounds good, guys.
Just let me know when you have completed the first part and understand the second, and I'll grant you access.
I need you guys to explicitly say that you have completed the first set of instructions to recover, and that you understand and will follow the second set of instructions.

Oh right. I did what you said there this week and somehow, it glitched somewhere...

There's nothing appearing in the Team Server tab after I connect, not even the server, but tidenv is checked when I click on new server...

Sure, go make a Codeplex (http://www.codeplex.com) account and apply for the team at the tiDE site (http://tidenv.codeplex.com).
Title: Re: tiDE Team

Ok, made an account and requested

Alright, I'll add you.  Please read this (http://ourl.ca/7710/161630) post and tell me that you fully understand it before starting work.
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: qazz42 on January 16, 2011, 08:33:55 pm
I do not know how how to connect to the server, other than that I understand what to do
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: SirCmpwn on January 16, 2011, 08:34:57 pm
Use Visual Studio, and go to Team>Connect to Team Foundation Server, then follow the instructions on the Codeplex Source Code page.
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: qazz42 on January 16, 2011, 10:22:24 pm
ok, I cannot find the "remove mapping" thing step four. I have not touched any of the code yet, I just "got" the files onto C:\tidenv
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: SirCmpwn on January 16, 2011, 10:24:44 pm
Yeah, those instructions are for users who have already gotten it, to fix the previous problems.  You should be able to just move on to the second set of instructions.
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: qazz42 on January 16, 2011, 10:27:18 pm
oh, ok, Got it. So just to be sure, now that I got the files and stuff, I can just close out of Visual Studio now that I am done?
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: SirCmpwn on January 16, 2011, 10:28:37 pm
Yes, you can, assuming you made no changes.
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: qazz42 on January 16, 2011, 10:30:26 pm
I did not even touch the code.

one more thing, just to be sure, the copy of the files on my computer are free for me to change/f**k up as much as I want and iti s only with the files on the server I should be careful with? (sorry if there are to many questions, I just dont wanna screw anything up x.x)
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: SirCmpwn on January 16, 2011, 10:34:12 pm
You can modify them if you wish, and if you don't want the changes to show up, you have to undo them via the Pending Changes window in Visual Studio.  If you want to change them, and want to keep your changes without reflecting them on the server, download the source code directly (outside of TFS) and modify it there.
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: qazz42 on January 16, 2011, 10:39:05 pm
so wait, the local files on my computer are linked to the files on the server?
Title: Re: tiDE Team
Post by: SirCmpwn on January 16, 2011, 11:05:15 pm
Yes, in a manner of speaking.  Copy them somewhere else if you want to edit them outside of "official" work on tiDE.

There is somthing I need to say: next 4 weeks I'll be ery busy for school, since I've got to read 8 books for my dutch lirature exam, and besides that also have another project in c# for school, which has to be finished 20th Feb. or so, and many many things more... after that I'll be back, but in the mean time I will keep up with the project, i.e. look what's done and how it's done, and perhaps code a little, but within a month I'll start coding (again). I'm sorry that I wrote so little code until now. :( I wished I had more time! But I'm not the only one I guess... :P

Download the latest source code at http://tidenv.codeplex.com (http://tidenv.codeplex.com) and use #D to open tiDE.sln.  You can hit F5 to build and run it.
