• R1ZWAN Interested to develop a logging framework based on custom attributes?

  Hi all, I wonder if someone is interested to start with me a project that would allow to log a program execution using custom attributes. The idea would be to just have to apply a custom attribute to the methods you want to trace (using widlcards to match many methods). The AOP weaver would be PostSharp , whose I am the principal author. I have already written a very naive sample but it is not aimed for production use. I am open to many technical solutions for logging: Writing everything from scratch Probably not. Log4Net, Enterprise Library Why not. I am also open to the project hosting (CodePlex, SourceForge, ...) and to the license. This will be discussed between contributors. If you are interested to contribute, ple ...Show All

• Gh0st in the shell Using Vista?

  Good idea Joe! Okay, I'll go first.  I'm using Vista RC1 full time now.  The computer seems quieter--doesn't take so many trips to the hard disk for VM paging.  I find going back to XP an unpleasantry, so I think Microsoft is succeeding here. Glass is nice.  I think the performance is what I expected it to be on an Intel Advanced Graphics card (Dell Dimension 9100).  Office 2007 is also pleasant to use, but they stil have some cleanup work to do on their UI. Who else is using Vista   Brian Is Vista noticeably slower than Windows XP SP2 Is it faster, for the matter I would never recommend installing over Windows XP until Vista RTMs. You should install on a ...Show All

• mammoo CAN SOMEONE HELP PLEASE? WDS STILL NOT WORKING

  Hi Everybody, It's getting very frustrating that WDS Beta 2 is still not working for me. It only works from within Outlook 2007 beta 2 technical refresh 2, but i always get " NOTHING FOUND " from the normal Search Deskbar.This while i basically went through all possible settings 100 times and installed, deinstalled and reinstalled the product multiple times, the last two weeks.

• Ccm1st How to calculate the mailbox hash to construct URL path

  Hello, It seems WDS is using some hash number in MAPI url to locate items. For example, the text in red : mapi://LocalHost/default/Mailbox - Wang, George ( $d3f5 )/ Is it possible to expose the hashing routine so that we can construct the URL from mailbox ENTRYID Here is a doc about something similiar, http://blogs.msdn.com/stephen_griffin/archive/2006/05/10/594641.aspx , search for "ComputeStoreHash", not sure if they are related somehow Thanks!

• Ilja S. IE7 Vulnerability discovered.

  Hi. A vulnerability has been discovered in Internet Explorer, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose potentially sensitive information. http://secunia.com/Internet_Explorer_Arbitrary_Content_Disclosure_Vulnerability_Test/ What do yo think about this Regards. It's the final version, not RC, i think that was released today. Regards. oh really wow...let's have a look :-) Still however, I stand by my opinion ;-) You can't expect everything to be bang on target and it doesn't help when people constantly criticise and dont help, it's like a record playing over and over and over and over.... I guess it depends on the severeness and depending on it it may be put up on Windows Update as a download as a sec ...Show All

• Hacker Boy JavaScript - same image, over and over...

  Hey All... I'm implementing a custom treecontrol in JavaScript. Nodes are added dynamically via ajax returns. When this happens, certain images that are displayed on each node arent being displayed. Upon further investigation, I see that as the same image is being used on node after node, we're going back to the server each time to get the same image over and over again... For each node, I'm including an <img src=images/...jpg /> tag in the innerHtml property of an appropriate element. As I say, I keep seeing the server hit over and over for each node - I hope somehow this is related to why I dont see the image at all on new nodes. Me thinks this image should somehow be cached - is this something I have to make happen explicitl ...Show All

• mickdelaney Color and size info

  Does anyone know how I can access the Color and Size fields for the product variants in the Starter Site via the API Iterate over skus and display the information. The closest I've come was seeing the values among ~60 others in Variant.DataRow.ItemArray. I'd like to see if a property exists and if it does retrieve the value. For the compiler error, it was a mistake in the code. It should have been returnValue = (string)pf.Variants[VariantId][columnName]; As far as the other casting error goes, it looks like you are trying to get variant from a product and not from a productFamily. You can write your own function to get the product from the catalog and then get the ...Show All

• jean at spear IE7 icon Problem

  Firstly, let's clear up the icon definitions. Favicons are those that are downloaded from the linked website and show the websites logo or whatever. The icons that we are all concerned with here in this fourm that are in error are the windows icons. These icons along with an array of others are usually contained in system dll files. Indexes into these files are kept track of in the registry and in the shortcut or favorite itself under properties. For example if the dll has 256 icons and windows calls the dll as shell.dll, 255 the 255 is the index into the icon file. In this case the last one (base 0). The problem here is with IE7. The registry entries under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT (url and internetshortcut) appear correct. I ...Show All
