• DMan1 When do reverse deltas take place?

  The TFS FAQ mentions that the server creates "reverse delta" of both binary and text files "asynchronously as a background task". I'm unable to find any other information on how or when this reverse delta creation happens, what factors affect how long it takes, and if it can be controlled.  Is there any documentation on this In addition to just wanting to know, I'm interested in understanding reverse delta creation as I am experimenting with using TFS as a large binary data file version control system. I'm working with a company that has to manage large binary data files  (not documents and which cannot be easily converted to relational data); most of their files are 10-60MB in size, but some reach from .5GB up to 30GB ...Show All

• MrZap How do I calculate the absolute width of glyphs?

  I am working on a project to collect data via an order entry interface and part of the data is a personal message that will be engraved on the inside of a ring in a factory. Personal messages are being offered in true type fonts and I need to know if the personal message fits given the circumference of the inside diameter of the ring. How can I calculate the width, perferably in inches, of the personal message I have searched this web site and found functions such as getcharABDwidths but a description of the function does not define the return value. I am looking for a return value that represents distance. SJWhiteley wrote: All fonts of the same size return the same value Yes, I went and tested and you are correc ...Show All

• Jim Perry How do i make icons for my projects

• progames25 Include / Exclude target to drop

  Hello, We have loads of solutions being build as part of our TFS builds, and each solution contains the main project (class library) and one or more test projects, containing either unit tests or test harness controls. I obviously want all the projects in a solution to be build so the unit tests can run, but ALL the compiled projects are copied to the drop folder, rather than just the main class libraries. Is there a way to specify that you want to build all projects in a solution but only copy one of them to the drop location I don't think I need to go so far as to build a custom task to do something that the MSBuild copy task can already do for me ( http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/3e54c37h. ...Show All

• sabarish_s OutOfMemory Exception Error

  I'm working on a rather complicated program using signature tablets. Someone signs the tablet, displaying their signature on screen. That signature is then broken down into a unicode byte string to be saved into a database. So far, so good. When I open a second form, designed to display entries from the database, it gets as far as the code below and give me an error message saying 'OutOfMemory Exception is unhandled'. This is the code designed to retrieve the unicode string from the database and turn it back into a signature. Dim ImgData As String ImgData = RegisterdbDataSet.Time_In_Table.NewTime_In_TableRow.Signature_Data() Dim bytes As Byte () = System.Text.Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(ImgData) FileOpen(1, Envir ...Show All

Thats it. Thanks I think your only options are to: either not have the second form be a child form. or move the other controls out of the way and perhaps set the location of the second form within the parent form . Position child form example: Private Sub Button1_Click( ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Form2.MdiParent = Me Form2.Show() Form2.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(100, 100) End Sub ...Show All

  Hello I have the following code : Random random = new Random (); for ( int i = 0; i < 14; i++) { int number = random.Next(0, 10); MessageBox .Show(number.ToString()); } How can I create an Array (or an ArrayList ) in order to display all the numbers in a listbox I also would like to create a seed based on the clock of the computer, thus each time the program would run it would be unique.
