The other day I posted about Build ClickOnce deployment packages using MSBuild and Team City, and there were something that I didn’t liked in my way of doing it.

I have multiple ClickOnce deployment packages created using TeamCity and MSBuild but each ClickOnce packages have their own Application Revision due to the usage of TeamCity BUILD_NUMBER server build property.

Migrating our TeamCity server today I got the following error on the new server:

error MSB3147: Could not find required file ‘setup.bin’ in …

Today I am migrating a TeamCity installation from an old server to a new server and discovered that it is really easy to do that!

First I fully re-installed TeamCity using the Windows Setup that JetBrains delivered on the new server.

The other day I was requested to automate our build process to issue different ClickOnce setup for the same application. The main difference was some configuration files pointing to different back end web services.

To start I had to create new build configurations on Team City which used the following settings for the Build Runner:

Today at Innoveo Solutions we had our daily Stand Up meeting using Skype as I am at home. It worked really good ! I can’t wait to experience it on the new plasma TV that we have in our meeting room!

At Innoveo Solutions we are using .NET and WPF for our Innoveo Skye® Editor application. Skye® Editor is a distribution channel editor targeting business people letting them edit and configure their insurance products.

From the beginning we have adopted the Model-View-ViewModel architecture. Having our solution growing we were facing the issue of having our ViewModels dependency growing too. Some ViewModel became too much dependent of others. This was obvious in our unit tests whose complexity to setup were growing too. It was time to find a solution to decouple the ViewModels.

As part of the Jetbrains Academy I am using/testing ReSharper 5 for around a month now. It is quite stable for a pre-release and I have lots of fun using it, and as always a productivity boost. Some of my preferred features are: External Sources, ASP.NET MVC integration, Solution-Wide Warnings and Suggestions, Upgrade-to-LINQ Actions. Till now I wasn’t able to test the Native NUnit Support, but this is definitely something I will test in the near future.

Jetbrains just posted on their blog ReSharper 5.0 Overview, check it out:

I like the Roy Osherove blog: Five Whys, Leadership in software teams.

Follow up on those two posts “How to measure programmer productivity using TDD Katas” or “Be Productive and Go Mouseless”. I would like to share a little keyboard shortcut which save me quite some time on my daily developments.

For some days I had the following issue on my Windows 7 installation: clicking on the start orb then on Devices and Printers would open the window, show a progress bar and then nothing else, a completely empty folder.

I tried a restore that didn’t solved the issue but it reminded me that I installed some days ago a Bluetooth software for a Bluetooth headset I received as a Microsoft MVP gift. This gave me the direction to search for.

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