• rchokler Duplex bindings vs Async

  Please excuse my ignorance. I would like to understand what the difference between these two patterns is: 1. use a Duplex contract to do callbacks to the Client 2. Client hosts a service endpoint for callbacks and passes the endpoint address as a parameter to the Server so that it can callback using a service proxy. (2) is possible with none duplex bindings so... What does (1) provide that you don't get from (2) Does the duplex contract do both the service request and the callback in one session context I'm sure there are some subtleties here that I don't see. Thanks, Ting What does (1) provide that you don't get from (2) Another feature of number #1 is that it guarantees you a valid service runnin ...Show All

• Thales Medeiros Is XAMLBrowserApplication cross browser ok ?

  I am learning the new XAMLBrowserApplication and i noticed that this works great in IE; however, not in firefox.. Is this a IE product only Erik Yes, XBAPs runs only on IE on XP with .Net 3.0 and Vista. One solution is to install IETab and add a *.xbap filter. /Simon Note if you want a cross browser XAML application, you might consider looking at WPF/E http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/asp.net/bb187358.aspx ...Show All

• Cathie 64 VS 2005 Trial version prevents usage of purchased Standard version

  After my VS 2005 Professional Trial version expired I purchased the VS 2005 standard version. I de-installed the trial completely (or so I thought), including hours of registry cleanup. Nevertheless the newly installed Standard version is not recognized, I still keep getting the message that the Trial of the Professional version has expired. Anything I can do short of reinstalling the computer It looks like there are indeed some undeleted registry keys. #1 You can download the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility and verify that the Professional Edition has been uninstalled correctly. #2 Uninstall the Standard Edition completely Reinstall the Trial Edition of the VS 2005 Professional with the only purpose to im ...Show All

  Hi, Again i don't know how to translate XAML to C#... :\ so i have this XAML code: <Grid x:Name="MyGrid" > <Viewport3D Focusable="true" Name="myViewport3D" ClipToBounds="true"> <ModelVisual3D> .... as you can see this is a Grid that contain Viewport3D that contain ModelVisual3D. how i write it in C# Lee got that perfect, I believe. The trick to figuring that out for any XAML is this: [ContentProperty("Children")] is adorning both the Grid and ModelVisual3D classes. That is how the XamlReader determines how to connect objects that contain each other. If the property is an IList, call .Add with the child. If the p ...Show All

  Hello, I'd like the next version of my product to create an alternate keyboard map (as seen in Tools|Options|Keyboard), make it the default, and edit some of its bindings. I haven't found any way to do this. I've also had a look at the registry (both the system and the user portion), and it seems keyboard maps are not stored there.

• FJohnston MSMQ? How many clients queues can connect to one server queue at one exact moment

  Whats the limitation. Client wants to know this to know how many MSMQ servers they need in a farm for any given scenario. No, you can't work with MSMQ except through the local queue manager. The local queue manager communicates with the remote queue manager on behalf of your application. Your application cannot talk directly to the remote queue in any way. So no remote transactional receive for you unless you are running MSMQ 4.0. What are you trying to achieve using remote transactional receive Can you not instead use a clustered app to push messages transactionally from the cluster to the machine that wants them You might want to raise this on the MSMQ newsgroup instead.

• pompeyjohn insert image

  how to insert image into word application from resource file. Only if you can put it on the Clipboard, then use the Paste method in Word. Word provides no interface to "stream" objects into a document. Ah, one other thought, since we are talking Word 2003. If you can convert the image to the Base64 used by Word 2003's WordProcessingML, then you might be able to "drop" the graphic in using the InsertXML method of the Range object. But I don't know of any documentation for this. I can imagine one other possibility. Since you're posting this in a VSTO forum, I'm assuming you're working with a VSTO project. VSTO allows you to insert Windows Forms and UserControls on a document. You could insert ...Show All
