• s_ruchit Web Services - C++ - VS 2005

  When I add a Web Service in C# - no problem. When I use C++ in VS 2005 I get: _CE_ACTIVEX was not defined because this Windows CE SDK does not have DCOM. _CE_ACTIVEX could be caused to be defined by defining _CE_ALLOW_SINGLE_THREADED_OBJECTS_IN_MTA, but it is recommended that this be done only for single-threaded apps. _ATL_NO_HOSTING was defined because _CE_ACTIVEX was not defined. So I define _CE_ALLOW_SINGLE_THREADED_OBJECTS_IN_MTA My question is - what is different about C# that I don't get the error. If I create and call the Web Service from a thread I create would this be good thing Using C++, creating and calling a web service from any thread, so as the calling thread is always the thread that created it, is fine (i.e ...Show All

• jitendra badkas Will Upgrading Target Platform change anything?

  I've developed a managed application for Pocket PC 2003. The new requirement says that it should work on Pocket PC 2003 and Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC. I've checked it on an emulator so far, and the application compiled for Pocket PC 2003 works fine on WM 5.0. My question is if there would be any benefit if there was a separate compilation for WM 5.0 (I don't want to use anything specific for WM5.0) Thanks, WM 5.0 PPC is backward compatible with PPC 2003, so there's no need for you to do that unless you're planning to use WM 5.0 specific features. Thanks, ...Show All

• levittbl Live ID SDK - Integration

  It is possible ti integrate .NET Framework to a programm. Is it possible to integrate the Live ID SDK too Because if I send a programm that uses the SDk to a friend, he isn't able to run it (because he doesn't have the SDK). With the Alpha release of the SDK, developers are not able to integrate the SDK with the application. If you want your friend to be able to run your application, he will need to download the SDK seperately. The alpha release is controled, but this is functionality that we may provide in later releases. Are you currently working on an application ...Show All
