Prof-UIS Tips

Compiling Prof-UIS

When compiling with Visual Studio 2010 the order of the projects in the solutions seems to be sorted when the solution is batch compiled. If you get compile errors when batch compiling a complete _1000 solution, usually 21 errors, just build the solution and they will go away. This problem seems to have been fixed in Visual Studio 2012.

Removing Configurations

How can I best remove extra configurations from a project? I have wonder about this for some time and ran into a user's comments on this process.

In the Configuration Manager select "Edit..." in the "Configuration" column for each project that has configurations you want to remove. In the dialog that pops up, mark each unwanted configuration and select "Remove".

Some Indicators are not reset, but when you remove configurations only the ones remaining appear.

NOTE: The preceding paragraph is really a BIG DEAL!

We would really appreciate it if you would share your advice and suggestions about the product and documentation with us.
