• bucketofsquid How to view instantiated template source code?

  I'm learning about templates. I understand what's going on with them, but I would very much like to see the instantiated source code. This should be the source code with all the actual parameters substituted for the formal parameters. I'd be happy seeing the instantiated code in a listing. How do I see that I'm using VC++ 2005 express under Win2K. Many thanks. Hi: this is not possible. Templates are not macros and as such they are not textually expanded within the compiler. Instead the compiler walks over a much lower level representation of the raw template replacing types and expressions as it goes building up a specific specialization of the class or function template. It may be a suprise but inter ...Show All

• Tommix99 Weather Tracker not working

  Hello, I just started learning Visual Basic using Build A Program Now book. I am now trying to run Weather Tracker program but having problem running it. I get the message which says the web service is not available. Does it work for you If you know what to do, let me know Hi. Was wondering if you ever solved this problem. I looked up the kb for the book and foudn nothing had changed since my book, but I have the exact same problem regarding the web service not being available. I cut and pasted the link it uses to test the web service to verify it was available, and my browser hits a page, so i'm assuming it DOES work, is there, and something is just not right, though I've no clue what t ...Show All

• Marcusbris Drawing Ellipses at a specified angle (not aligned to the x or y axis)

  I am trying to draw an ellipse at the centre of a panel such that the semi major axis of the ellipse is rotated at a user specified angle ie. rotated ellipse. I have no problem drawing an ellipse at the centre of a panel provided there is no rotation applied, but as soon as I try to rotate the ellipse I fail to achieve the desired result. The method I have tried is to use the Graphics.RotateTransform and graphics.TranslateTransform methods. The Graphics.RotateTransform method seems to rotate about the origin (0,0) point of the panel, so I have tried the following: First draw the ellipse centred at (0,0) Rotate the ellipse using the Graphics.RotateTransform method Translate the elipse to the centre of ...Show All

• progames25 Access "Start Date" and "Finish Date" via TFS API

  Hi, I'm integrating access to TFS in one of our internal development tools. So far I have successfully connected to the TFS, retrieved a WorkItem etc. I was also able to modify the "Completed Work" field programmatically. How could I access "Start Date" and "Finish Date" Those fields seem not to be part of the Fields collection. I haven't found any samples. Any help would be appreciated. Regards Uwe I have done some additional testing: In CMMI it seems that only the "Task" WorkItem conntains the fields "Start Date" and "Finish Date". Project and Excel seem to be able to add those fields but I was unable to verify that. It didn' ...Show All

• Javahar Can i exclude certain files from being scanned for xml document generation?

  My problem is this: When designing a class, i create the .h header file like so: // foo.h ///<summary> /// This is foo ///</summary> class Foo { public: ///<summary> /// Default constructor ///</summary> Foo(); }; Then when i create the .cpp file i copy the comments into that also so i can read what the function does (at a later date) from any of the 2 files like: // foo.cpp ///<summary> /// Default constructor ///</summary> Foo::Foo() { //do something }; Now when the .xml documentation is generated, for each member it lists the summary twice ie: < xml version="1.0" > < doc > < assembly > "F00" </ assembly > < members > < mem ...Show All

• Antarctica Advice on moving TFS to new domain - easier to simply reinstall?

  Hello, I have a Team Foundation server built out on a Win2003 dedicated machine. Currently, this machine sits in our development/QA domain named Ecomqa. I have full control of this domain, so have (and can) set up domain admins, etc for testing purposes. I installed TFS on this machine purely as a trial for our team to learn how to use and mess around with. Right now there's really nothing to lose on this server if TFS disappeared - although reinstalling takes time (i.e., there's no project data, etc worth saving right now). The TFS was installed with an Ecomqa domain admin account. The issue is, all of our team's user accounts lie on another domain called BIZ, which we have no control over. BIZ does not trust Ecomqa, but Ecomqa t ...Show All

  I have put together a small application that includes a wysiwyg web page editor. The problem I have is that I need to remotely host the editor.

I am a big fan of the enterprise Library and where I work we need to write a framework to handle all the presentation layer applications from Web Application to Windows Applications to Mobile ones.

• daimaku Another suggestion for treediff

  It would be very useful to display the last modification date of the files in the tree and if comparing server items, display the changeset number. This would allow easier determination of which file has more recent changes. Also, possibly allow merges to occur between two server paths. These are good suggestions. I'll ask our PM to enter these requests. Thanks. -Tan ...Show All
