QBS TOOLBOX2009Essential companion products for

Microsoft Visual Studio developers

3

When Microsoft first released Visual Basic in the early 90’s, complementary products almost instantly appeared on the scene. Enterprising developers saw an opportunity to meet a need of programmers and built themselves successful businesses out of add-on software for the Microsoft developer toolset.

At that time we at QBS had already established a flourishing business from selling components, so this emerging scenario suited us perfectly. And here we are over 15 years later.

We are proud to serve many thousands of our Visual Studio customers and to offer them many of the wonderful third party products you see in this guide: software that helps to make your job easier, to do your job better and to take user satisfaction to a whole new level!

The idea of the QBS Toolbox is for you to have a reminder of what extra is available out there for you as a Visual Studio developer.

Space prevents us from giving full and comprehensive information on each product, so we have created a page on our website where you can easily link to the pages of all the products in QBS Toolbox:

www.qbssoftware.com/toolbox

I hope you find this handy guide both useful and interesting. Thanks for reading.

Yours in programming,

Skye QuinDirector of SalesQBS Software

The World’s #1 Solution for Windows Software Installations

Are you using Visual Studio to build software installations?

Most developers know that Visual Studio Deployment Projects are okay for projects with minimal installation requirements (like xcopy/shortcut/registry). But what about for more complex, professional installations?

If your software targets Windows, InstallShield 2009 is your solution. It makes it easy to create professional, reliable Windows Installer (MSI) packages and InstallScript installations, keeping your customers happy and your support costs down.

Whether you want to install software on XP or Vista or extend installations to configure database servers, Web services, or mobile devices, InstallShield 2009 is the only tool you need. It does the things Visual Studio Deployment Projects can’t, including:

• Validating MSIs

• Creating customised end-user dialogs

• Building patches and updates

• Supporting custom actions

• Managing components and features

• Supporting databases and IIS configurations

• Translating dialogs into 35 languages

The InstallShield 2009 IDE gives you a powerful array on tools, including the Dialog Editor.

With Studio Enterprise controls in your Visual Studio Toolbox, you can add the most sophisticated and advanced features and functionality to your applications with less code and in less time than ever before. Get your full-featured trial at www.componentone.com/ download.

Divelements made the headlines recently by becoming the first company to offer complex business-grade controls for the new Silverlight platform. Building upon the success of our ribbon and docking products for other platforms, we were able to create a full set of components retaining most of the rich client functionality of WPF and Windows Forms, but for deployment within websites.

SandRibbon is an implementation of the Office 2007 “Fluent” ribbon user interface, providing most of the features used to create applications like Word, Excel and PowerPoint. We offer full dynamic resizing, a custom popup engine, resizable galleries, the quick access toolbar, contextual tabs and live preview.

SandDock provides collapsible dockable windows, tabbed documents and other window management functionality. In WPF and Silverlight you can give your web-based applications rich windowing features that the platform does not provide, and even offer 3D window switching for that extra polished feel. Layout serialization makes it easy to store the state of your window layout between application sessions.

Both products allow application authors to specify custom themes and colour schemes, where fine-grained control over look and feel is required. All this functionality is available on all three development platforms.

A rich internet application deployed within the browser, using these controls.

• Access to the only award-winning Silverlight suite on the market. Studio for Silverlight includes the controls you really need: a full-featured RichTextBox, Chart with support for animations and interactivity, DataGrid with enhanced editor support and built-in data filters, Gauges for creating dashboards that display quantitative data in an appealing and intuitive way.

• 100s of samples with source code. You have access to the best resources with samples covering all platforms and spanning grids, charts, schedules, reports, editors, treeviews.

The Most Intelligent Tool for Visual Studio

Simply put, ReSharper is a must-have productivity tool for .NET developers. It fully integrates with Microsoft Visual Studio to intelligently and powerfully extend the functionality that is native to Visual Studio. ReSharper provides solution-wide error highlighting on the fly, instant solutions for found errors, over 30 advanced code refactorings, superior unit testing tools, handy navigation and search features, single-click code formatting and cleanup, automatic code generation and templates, and a lot more productivity features for C#, VB.NET, ASP.NET, XML, and XAML.

ReSharper 4.5 introduces the greatest performance boost in recent product history. Both performance and memory usage have been revamped. Several major actions such as solution opening, code editing and search and navigation are now performed 30–60% faster than before.

In addition to boosting its agility and responsiveness, the tool brings solution-wide code inspections, support for Visual Basic 9, extended naming style configuration scheme, new and updated refactorings, extended cross-language capabilities, a useful new navigation feature, and smoother framework support.

Solution-Wide Code Inspections

Traditionally, developers have been unable to detect unused non-private members on the fly. To address this challenge, aided by the ever-improving solution-wide analysis, we introduced a set of specialized code inspections that only work when you let ReSharper analyse your whole solution. These inspections help you discover:

• Unused non-private declarations

• Unused return values of non-private methods

• Unaccessed non-private fields

• Unused parameters in non-private members

• Abstract or virtual events that are never invoked

• Unassigned fields

• Members and types that can be made internal instead of public

Look for these inspections in your code and on the Marker Bar, highlighted as warnings or suggestions. In addition, new code annotations are available that you can use to mark certain unused non-private types and members to prevent ReSharper from fussing about them.

Extended Naming Style Configuration

You can now define custom naming style settings for different languages and symbols including types, namespaces, interfaces, parameters, method properties and events, static and instance fields.

Delayed Load

DelayLoad functionality allows you to load huge amounts of data from a data source in a short time. When the control is displayed, only the currently displayed data is loaded. Additional data is loaded as needed.

XML templates

The design and look of the control can be saved into an XML file either using the Visual Studio designer or the Resco designer application. The XML file can be then loaded back into the control at any time (also during run-time). This means the appearance of the control can be changed simply by calling a single LoadXml method.
