• Visual Studio Team System Is there a way to automate getting latest and doing a team build in Team Foundation?

  I essentially need to do a get latest, do a team build, and publish to a different server. Is there a way to automate this process nightly in TFS Sorry I forgot to add that...I had tried that as well but when I use this: TFSBuild start http://tfsserver "Team Foundation Source Control" "Nightly Team Build" /m:devbox-10 /d:c:\tfsbuilds ...the command prompt opens up and looks like it is trying to initialize a build but then closes and doesn't seem to do anything.... ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions VS Express and Hibernate

  I have usedHibernate for 6 years to avoid long startups. But, since I have started using VS2005 Express (primarily VB), Hibernate consistently fails. When I go to restart I get a full reboot ending with a message box: "The system as recovered from a serious error" "For more information on the error, click here" Clicking brings up a message box with: "Error Signature": BSCode: 10000050 BCP1: F000FF63 CP2: 00000000 BCP3: FBA0DFC1 BCP4: 00000002 OSVer: 5_1_2600 SP: 2_0 Product: 768_1 There is also a .dmp file and a sysdata.xml file. I've looked at them but nothing jumps out. (Is there a utility to read these ) I'm quite certain that the problem is with VS2005 as it ONLY occu ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) How I create a Proxy for WCF with TCP Transport and Binary encode in SDK July CTP?

  How serialize customized messages with WCF Binary encode and TCP transports How I create a Proxy for TCP-Binary in SDK July CTP Do you have any example Thanks, Daniel Andrade Not sure if I understand your question. But there are generally two basic approaches to create consumer-side objects to talk to services: -one would be to do contract assembly sharing and not relying on generating source code from interoperable metadata (like XSD, WSDL and/or MEX). This is, IMO, the preferred way to go in what I would like to call 'closed scenarios' (I also wrote a bit about this here). -second one is to use svcutil.exe and point it to either the WSDL or MEX metadata of your service. This second option ...Show All

• Windows Forms Forms

  How can I show the form when I have more then one forms .ActiveForm returns the 'Active' form, which is likely the form that your code is running from, Form1 if you have not renamed it. DO you mean that you have created forms in the form designer and wish to display them To show a form that you have designed in the form designer you must instatiate it, then show it. So that if you had created a form called Form2, to display it: Form2 myFrm = new Form2(); myFrm.Show(); The same for any further forms that you have designed, a form is just a class, so it must be instatiated into an object before you may access its non static members. If you are still stuck, shout back, ...Show All

• SQL Server Local system and SQL Server Service

  Hi: A very stupid question but want to see if i have an answer. Is it possible to run SQL Server Service and SQL Server Agent Service under local system(not Domain account) without granting SA Permissions on the server. is it ever possible to run by just granting some registry permissions and not making BUILTIN\Administrators a SA on the server. Thx AK You can remove Builtin\Administrators from the server and the server will still run, but some applications relying on the presence of that login could be broken by this action. Thanks Laurentiu ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista UnauthorizedAccessException when using MSDTC

  Hello everyone, We have a 3-tier application, the client, the server and the databaser server. It was developed using C# 2.0 and .Net 2.0, the database server is MS-SQL 2000 and we have some MSMQ in there. All 3 are located on different machines. The client is Windows XP SP-2, the application server is Windows Server 2003 SP1 and the daatabase server is also Windows server 2003 SP1. Most of the time when the client performs an operation to the application server the database gets updated and something is written to a queue. The writing to the database and queues is performed in the context of a transaction, we use the System.Transactions facilities and MSDTC. When the server performs the writing operation it 'impersonates' ...Show All

• SQL Server Querying XML from SQL 2005

  Hi, We are storing the entire xml of an infopath form as a string alongside structured data in a sql 2005 db. The project is a reporting one and we need to retrieve data from the infopath forms for display in the reports (along with structured data). We need to be able to build a query which retrieves both structured data from the tables and xml data from the xml string (also within a table). So the question is: can you query an xml string stored within a table from with a stored proc If so can you combine this query (I'm guessing this will be XPath) with a standard sql query to return both types of data The MS devs (yes actual MS employees) I'm working with don't so it will be interesting to see if anyone can suggest a solutio ...Show All
