• Joe Truman Activities List for a certain user - Prototype

  Hi, I work on a company that wants to start using WWF on our projects and I am developing a small prototype to show them what we gain using it. My prototype is based on a small activity workflow, where I wanted to show the possibility of giving certain activites to certain users, so, everytime a user enters on the application he sees what activities does he have to work on. What's the best approach to do this regarding the part on assigining an activity to a certain logged user Thank you in advance for your answers. Regards, Bruno I'd take a look at one of two options (there may be more): Create a custom activity that assigns tasks to users. This activity could log the details of the task and get its i ...Show All

• Leon Mayne How do you develop WF in distributed environment?

  Hi; I've read two books on MS WFF and some of the articles and still have no clue about the following situtions. Almost all the info relates to the WF being hosted and run within one application, is on one machine, but most of the situations that I'd use WF would be when the WF is split among many users. Suppose an order is taken by user and the accuracy of parts and prices have been verified. Now the orders are transfered to another department for deciding whether the order should be made inhouse or outsource. If inhouse, then the order would go to manufacturing plant and mutiple work orders are created for different parts. Some parts are created in parallel and some are in sequential. Within this sections, parts will ...Show All

• Deeps_123 Can get IP from router, but cannot connect to Internet

  I have installed Winows Vista Ultimate (32-bit) on an HP Pavilion a1610n with the AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200 dual-core CPU. 2 GB RAM, 250 GB HDD. My wireless NIC is a Netgear wg311v3 PCI card, and my wireless router is a Netgear WPNT834 RangeMax 240 (802.11b/g). I am running DHCP and Shared WEP (128-bit) on the router. I can connect to the router and get a dynamic IP address. However, I cannot ping the router and I cannot ping the IP assigned to the NIC. I can ping localhost (127.0.0.1). In Vista network settings, the WLAN shows up as "Unidentified Network", Access is "Local Only", and the network keeps switching to Public, even if I manually switch it to Private. Obviously, I cannot surf the Internet since ...Show All

• Anil_shet How to change File Integrity level using C#

  I found this article that explains how to change the integrity level of a file on windows VISTA using C++ . Does anyone know how to do this in C# (.net 2.0) I think you can use the System.Security.AccessControl namespace but I've never used it before. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/library/en-us/IETechCol/dnwebgen/ProtectedMode.asp Lowering Resource Integrity Generally, it is not a good security practice for higher level processes to accept input or share resources with low integrity processes. There is a risk the low integrity process may attempt malicious behavior. However, there are times when this is required by design. Note Applications that accept input or share resources from lower integrity proce ...Show All

• pjohnsen Directshow Error : Classfactory Cannot Supply Requested Class

  I have created a custom Directshow source filter. This filter works fine in GraphEdt (I can use intelliconnect to render the output pin with no problems at all). But when I try to replicate this inside of a C++ application I get the following error. Error 0x80040111 :Classfactory Cannot Supply Requested Class. I have no problems chaining other custom filters together in the app. and I have tried to explicitly chain the GraphEdt filters together (using DirectConnect) yet I still cannot get the source filter to work in my custom app. Any help on this issue would be greatly appriciated. My immediate guess is that your c++ code is loading the wrong filter. Failing that, try putting a bre ...Show All

• manick312938 Manifest problems with 64 bit Vista.

  I have just installed the new RC1 release of the Vista SDK and there isn't a new mt.exe included in that release. This is concerning since we are so close to gold and there are still so many issues with manifests. Issues: 1. The current released SDK (mt.exe) generates warnings when embeding manifests in .exe files like the following. Our builds do not allow checkins that build with warnings so thats a problem. setup.exe.manifest() : warning manifest authoring warning 81010003: Element "description" in an unrecognized namespace "urn:schemas-microsoft.com:asm.v1". setup.exe.manifest() : warning manifest authoring warning 81010003: Element "trustInfo" in an unrecognized namespace "urn:schemas-micros ...Show All
