Hello,

I am trying to evaluate your demo version of Code Complete 3. I am running it on Vista Home Premium SP1 64bit addition. I have created a very simple project using the Northwind access database. I am usuing only 3 of the tables. All other settings are default. When I generate the project I get the following error message:

Error 16 Name 'ConnectionStrings' is not declared. C:\Tutorials\NorthWindCC\NorthwindDemoWin\Common Classes\ConnectionManager.Designer.vb 59 16 NorthwindDemoWin

It is generated by the following code snippet:

Public Shared Function GetConnectionString() As String
Return ConnectionStrings("Northwind").ConnectionString
End Function


Also:
Language: VB.NET
Framework: CSLA3.5
Data Access: ADO.NET
Solution: Windows Application

Can you help?

Thanks,
William

Hi William,

When you generate a windows application, a reference to the System.Configuration.dll is required. For multi-tier application is required in the DL project. Use the Add reference dialog in the Project Settings screen to add it or just add it to the project after you have generated the solution.

Hi Philip,

Thanks for the response. Your suggestion corrected the problem. The Solution generated works fine.

There is another issue which does not affect the program that is created but is of curiosity to me. There are numerous warnings generated. They are the same warning but for different areas of the code:

Warning 1 Only one XML comment block is allowed per language element. C:\Tutorials\CodeComplete\Test1\BL Classes\BLTable1Info.Designer.vb 125 7 Test1


'''<summary>
'''Constructor
'''</summary>
'''<param name="Id" ></param>
'''<param name="FullName" ></param>
'''<param name="Phone" ></param>




Why is Code Complete generating this? Is it correctable?

Thanks, William

Hi William

We will be ironing these warnings in the next release. You can remove them by just cleaning up the XML.

Philip
