• Nazmul Per App Volume not working for pure MIDI application

  Hi there, I am not sure if this is the correct forum, please direct me to the correct one if it is not. Thanks. My issue here is that I have a MIDI application that uses only midiOut******() API to playback MIDI files, the reason for this is that I need advanced control over the output of the MIDI sound. Thus every NotesOn or NotesOff or etc from MIDI command will be outputed to the Software Synth using midiOutShortMsg(). In this case I've realized that the system does not give me a "per app volume" that my application can play with. Which means that the only way to mute or change the volume of my application is to use the master volume. Is there any solution for this Thanks. Best Regards, ChiaFong. ...Show All

• rwgreene Workflow Designer Rehosting and XAML Workflow

  Hi all, I am new to Windows Workflow. The XAML only workflow consists of custom activity which is defined in the 'test' namespace. The Namespace mapping construct maps Xml Namespace to the clr-namespace. I load this workflow in the workflow runtime. i.e. XAML Activation. This works fine. My problem is: I am trying to load the same XAML workflow in the workflow designer re-hosted using the WorkflowDesignerControl. The xoml is deserialised correctly and the root element 'MyRoot' is identified and added to the designer host. It cannot identify the child activities i.e. WriteLineActivity since it resides in a custom namespace and so the number of children for root element is 0. So only the root element is rendered on the designer and ...Show All

• Jeroen Vos transactions and ExternalDataExchangeService

  I have a state machine workflow that represents my process. At a pre defined time, a bunch of instances get kicked off. Then individual users interact with specific instances to move them through their states. Finally, at another pre defined time, I need to complete all the instances, followed by running a stored proc. To complete the instances I can just iterate through all the active ones and raise my ThingyCompleted event in my ExternalDataExchangeService. The trick is that I want all the event raising and the execution of a single stored proc to all happen in the same transaction. Since the stored proc is basically a rollup and needs to happen after all my workflow instances complete, it has to be run from the host (as opposed to ...Show All

• baswegan Rehosting State Machine Workflow Designer

  Hi, Does anyone has a sample of a State Machine Workflow Designer posted somewhere Hope to hear from anyone as soon as possible. Thanks. Regards, Andrea Hi, The state machine designer is no different than the normal designer. There is a WorkflowMonitor in the WF samples that shows how to do it. Or Jon Flanders has a nice Atlas sample at http://www.masteringbiztalk.com/blogs/jon/PermaLink,guid,5880f478-b448-4c39-9f2e-382d942a7b82.aspx . One extra thing you need to do is use the LoadDesignerLayout function in the WorkflowDesignerLoader subclass OnEndLoad method to load the layout file. Also I just wrote up a simple sample of how to use the designer to generate an image of the workflow at http://ms ...Show All

• Harri Pesonen kbfiltr example in ddk doesn't work?

  I have been using a modified version of the kbfiltr DDK example that I have been using to route data from a HID keyboard MSR up to user level for an OPOS "driver" for some time now on Win2k and XP. It works on 2k and XP but becuase I use IOCTLs it won't run on Vista. As I inderstand, IOCTLs are no longer allowed between user space and kernel space any more Installing it, Vista claims that the driver is not compatible with Vista, I believe this is the reason, but anyway... So I am starting over with the WinSDK/DDK sample "kmdf/kbfiler" This contains an alternate method of user level communication. However, after building the .sys file and the test program, then installing the filter driver on the MSR device, both t ...Show All

• epsilon_ro Listing workflows - performance and design

  Hi All, My application manages and keeps track of some registration process. It stores metadata for documents, and for every document, it starts a new statemachine workflow instance. I store the workflow instance identifier (guid) for each document. What if, I'd like to list all the documents with the current state. I cannot reach the workflow states from SQL, therefore I have to run the query first, then go through the results and ask the workflow runtime for the current state of every row in the result. How fast could it be The other solution, if I store the state for every document in my metadata. It's easier to query, but I have to keep it synchronized with the workflow instance, and I stored the same data twice (in my database and in ...Show All
