We are using TFS and the added .ruleset files now participates in the check-in process. However, does not make sense to check-in those files. Just ignore the file on the source control does not solve the problem because those files are added in the csproj structure as well. Is there a plan to keep those files in a folder outside the project structure? Why, when connected to the SonarQube server, the plugin just download those files at the analysis time?
Thanks
There is no way to keep .ruleset files outside the project structure, as the rule set is to meet specific project needs associated with code analysis. It sits in a project properties.

I am using Visual Studio 2017 to write some stuff in C. When I open a new project, I have some default filters and in "add" option for the project there's only filter and no folder/directory.
I want my project to have a folder structure, but can't add folders to the project in Visual Studio. Looking online I can only find solutions for adding an existing folder to a project and not adding a new one.
How can I add new folders to a Visual Studio C project?
How can I disable filters?
The way that I think of Visual Studio 2017 (earlier versions of the IDE as well) and its presentation of files in File View is as a kind of virtual file organizing system. File View allows you to logically organize files, presenting the actual file system in a more helpful manner.
The icons that look like folders in the File View are not really folders but are instead labels, called filters, which allow you to group your files however you like regardless of how they are physically stored in your persistent storage area such as a hard drive.
Filters are more flexible by not corresponding to the physical file folder hierarchy as they allow you to organize files that are all in a single folder into logical groups. Filters allow this to be done at a finer grain than is typically used by grouping files in folders. Filters also allow you to group files that are in multiple folders together into a single logical folder within File View.
However filters can be confusing because most of us are so accustomed to file folder hierarchies that the filter methodology can disconnect the logical file as represented in a Filter from the physical file location located in a folder.
My typical methods of adding files
Typically what I do is to create the physical folders through Windows or doing a clone of an existing Git or Subversion or VS Team Services source tree. With something new I may use the New Solution or New Project wizard to create my initial starting point and then organize and add files and folders physically through Windows and then go into the Visual Studio IDE to create the Filters and then Add existing files to the Filters. In some cases I will create sub-filters within a Filter in order to better organize the files within a physical Folder.
For new files I will just use the Add New Item menu option to add the item to the proper project. If you right click on a filter name, the new file will automatically be added to the filter. In some cases when I have added additional filters to the project to organize files, I will drag the newly created item to the proper filter and drop it there.
This drag and drop is not changing the physical location of the file but is changing its logical position by moving it from one filter to another. To move the file physically from one folder to another, I will usually do that with Windows. Just remember that if you do physically move a file with Windows you must also modify the file's entry in the Visual Studio 2017 filter to which it has been assigned, I usually do a Remove on the file followed by Add Existing Item and browse to its new location.
It appears you can not have the same file in multiple filters within the same project.
In some cases when I Add New item, I will change from the suggested folder displayed in the Add New Item dialog to a different folder using the Browse button. And if I need a different extension to the file then I will make that change as well, a common action when adding a new C source file to a project which requires changing the .cpp extension to .c.
You can also use the Browse button to navigate to a folder where you can then create a new folder if you like using the right click menu that displays when you do a right click in the displayed list of files and folders.
Unfortunately, the Add New Item dialog always wants to put a file into the project directory with all the other files. The Add Class wizard doesn't give you the opportunity to specify anything other than the default project folder. I have in some cases created C++ classes using the Visual Studio IDE, removed them from the project, moved the physical files to where I want them to be and then added them back to the project.
The filter approach seems to work well because the total solution is divided up into multiple projects and each project has its own physical folder. The multiple projects may correspond to particular DLLs or static libraries or other components that are used by the solution.

Example screenshots of folder and filters
Here is a Windows folder view of a small project of the resources being used:
And this is how I have the filters set up. Normally the list of resource files can be quite long however I have created two sub-filters to logically separate out bitmap files from icon files though they both share the same physical resource folder.
Also the filter named PepIncludes corresponds with an actual physical folder named the same while the filters named "Header Files" and "Source Files" are groups of files that all reside in the same physical folder which is named the same as the project folder.
The following screen shot shows how filters can provide flexibility. I have a folder with include files, PepIncludes, and I have the same collection of files in two different projects within this Visual Studio 2017 solution. In a solution with 30 or 40 projects, this can make it a lot easier to manage files. For instance you can see that after modifying the file "ECR.h" the fact that it has been modified shows in both of the filter file listings (the small red check mark next to the name).
I have a web-app(browser based) which needs to access a folder full of icons that resides outside the web folder.
This folder MUST be outside the web folder, and would ideally exist outside the project folder all together
however, when specifying the path to the folder neither "../" or making use of a symlink will work
when the page attempts to load the image I always get
"[web] GET /Project|web/icons/img.png => Could not find asset Project|web/icons/img.png."
however I set the image source to "../icons/img.png"
how can i get dart to access this file properly
PS: I attempted a symlink to another part of the filesystem (where the images would be kept ideally) however this did not work either.
The web server integrated into DartEditor or pub serve only serves directories that are added as folders to the files view. When you add the folder to DartEditor you should be able to access the files. This is just for development.
You have also to find a solution for when you deploy your server app. It would be a hazardous security issue when you could access files outside the project directory. Where should the server draw the line? If this would be possible your entire server would be accessible to the world.
Like #Robert asked, I also have a hard time imaging why the files must not be in the project folder.
If you want to reuse the icons/images between different projects you could create a resource package that contains only those images and add them as a dependency to your project.
If you want a better answer you need to provide more information about your requirements.
If you wrote your own server (by using the HttpServer class) it may be possible to use the VirtualDirectory to server your external files.
Looking at look the dartiverse_search example may give you some ideas.
You could put them in the lib directory and refer to them via /packages/Project/...
Or in another package, in which case they would be in a different place in the file system. But as other people have said, your requirement seems odd.
I have 2 source folders in my project:
src/main/resources/sql/oracle
src/main/resources/sql/sqlserver
They both have a file called mh1.sql.
The project I'm working on used to support only oracle database, so it just use ClassPathResource("mh1.sql") to load the sql file directly, now I need to support different kinds of database, and switch to the correct sql file according to the database type we're using. So, is there any good way to go? without any big impact on the old project. any rough ideas?
BTW, I find that after compilation, I can only find one mh1.sql under bin folder, I'm a new guy in using Eclipse, and I'm curious to know if it's possible to output these 2 folder oracle and sqlserver to the bin folder and each contains its own mh1.sql file?
As for your second question without knowing your exact Eclipse project settings it's of course close to impossible to tell why you're not seeing the oracle and sqlserver subfolders in your bin folder. However, it should be obvious that this being fixed is a prerequisite for your first problem.
Have a look at the ClassPathResource docs, they tell you that you can/should provide a path to your resource rather than just the name. Hence, you can use ClassPathResource("sql/oracle/mh1.sql").
Having said all that you might also just dump the two files in src/main/resources/sql/ (omitting the subfolders) and give them unique names: ora-mh1.sql and mssql-mh1.sql.
Is there a recommended way to initialize the data in Isolated Storage for Windows Phone 7 application before it is run for the first time? Right now the best solution I can think of is putting a flag in IsolatedStorageSettings and checking for its presence on in the application Launching event. If the flag is not present I initialize several objects in code and save them to Isolated Storage and set the flag so they are not set the next time the application is run. Is there a better way to do this? Should I add the objects in serialized state as some kind of resource or it is acceptable to initialize them in code? I expect that they would require like a thousand lines of code.
Well if you can create your files and add them to the project. And if you are sure that you will not be editing your files than just keep them like that. The files will go into your installation folder.
Or if you think that you are going to edit them and want to keep the changes saved, than copy them from the installation folder to the application storage folder.
Here is a link in which a database which was added as a reference to the project is copied from installation folder to storage folder of the app.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh286411(v=vs.92).aspx
Do the same for your files and everything will be fine.
The second part of your question. Well after this just check for one file/folder in the app storage folder and if it says yes it is there than do not copy your files from installation folder to application storage folder.
And if you are trying to make the files when the application launches than just add a check before the creation code is run. Where you will search for a file/folder existence. And if it exists do not run the file creation code.
I'm wondering if it is possible to create project-specific files in Clearcase. What I want to do is create files in one project, use Clearcase to source control the files, but I don't want those files to leave that porject because they don't have applicability in any other project.
For example:
I want to manage database changes in Clearcase. I plan on having 3 folders in each project (projects are created for each release of the software). The folders are "install", "update", and "backout". The install folder contains the scripts needed to build a database from scratch for the stream that I'm working in, let's say the stream is in project "13.03". The "update" and "backout" folders contain scripts needed to update and backout the changes to bring the database from 13.02 to 13.03, and vice versa.
In the 13.04 project, I'll have the same folder structure, but I don't want the contents of the "update" and "backout" folders in my 13.04 because I'll have other files that will bring the database from 13.03 to 13.04.
So what I'm looking to do is essentially create "project-specific" files/folders in Clearcase.
I'd gladly take any other recommendation for managing database changes in Clearcase. Keep in mind that the 13.03 and 13.04 (for example) baselines could be being developed at the same time.
It seems you are referring to the same project, with different versions (13.02, 13.03, ...).
If that is the case:
simply update your 3 folder according to the current version
put a baseline (if we are talking about ClearCase UCM) on the component representing your project
if evolutions needs to be done on any file of a specific version, make a child Stream called, for instance, "13.03", and update your "13.03" folders there. They will evolve in complete isolation in their own dedicated "13.03" branch.
If you have to create a new directory for each project version (which means you don't need a source control system at all, just a simple backup system), then you have no choice but to recreate each of those folders with their appropriate files in them, making new "add to source control".
