• Software Development for Windows Vista CardSpace Without Certificate

  Hi. I would like to make a website with a cardspace authentification, but I don't want to use certificates. I want a single autenticacion mode, like any forum or community. My question is, if i can do it and how . Somebody know if there is a sample in the web because i have not been able to find anything. Thanks. Hi Rui, First I just want to give a little context since this is a slightly different topic then this thread originally was about ( SSL requirement for web sites to use CardSpace ). The question is about the SSL requirement on the mex endpoint that publishes policy for a managed card security token service, or for resource STS’s that chain between the RP and idp (there is no SSL ...Show All

• Smart Device Development MSMQ PPC win ce 4.2(Reader thread terminated)

  Have observed a strange behavoiur in MSMQ . Senario : Have two applications one on Pc and one on the PPC (WM5). which interact using MSMQ. sending and receiving of messages works fine when the ppc is online(or in network uses a wifi connection).

Now i get online or come into network after 10 - 15 mins time gap (ie after the message is sent from the PC.) ,On the PC  the message showing up on the outbound queue dissapears and ...Show All

• Visual Basic Starting/Stopping Processes Problem (vb, visual studio 2005)

  Ive been trying to create a small application to start and stop "spoolsv.exe" (and some other processes) as I want to be able to stop it when I play games or run other demanding applications.

• Visual Studio Not finding external dll when compiling Web development project

  I am trying to create a web development porject that compiles my company's new web based application. It compiles in VS2005 but when i compile it using ms build I get the following error: /ProgramName/Stuff/MoreStuff/EvenMoreStuff/AndSoOn/schFoo.aspx(6): error ASPPARSE: Could not find 'libCompanyComponents' or one of its dependancies. The system cannot find the file specified. Now libCompanyComponents is a DLL in a different directory that has been added as a reference in VS2005, but is obviously not being seen by msbuild (or so i am reasoning) My question is: how do I get msbuild to see this file in its current location and use it if the directory structure is as follows: D:\CompanyDev\Product\ | |_Components | | | |_libCompan ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista GdiPlusEffects.h missing in February 2006 SDK

  I downloaded the new Feb CTP Windows SDK and the compiler complains about missing GdiPlusEffects.h. This file is included conditionaly when GDI+ version at least 1.1 is detected. Where can this file be found The workaround is to edit GdiPlus.h and change the GDIPVER from 0x0110 to 0x0100: // Define the Current GDIPlus Version #ifndef GDIPVER #define GDIPVER 0x0100 #endif Chris, thanks for the reply. Now _that_ makes GDI+ useful, doesn't it This means I cannot use GDI+ in my software. I'll use another graphics library instead. I take it the effects APIs were published by mistake and MS did not intend to make them available for 3rd party developers, right Regards, -- Gleb ...Show All

• .NET Development Security handling based on Role of User and Destination of Service Call

  I can't seem to find enough information to solve this problem. Scenario: - There are two web services: ServiceA and ServiceB both have two web methods AA(), AB() and BA(), BB() respectively - There are two in memory associations: "ServiceA" is allowed to be accessed by "Domain\Administrators", "ServiceB" is allowed to be accessed by "Domain\Users", which can change at any time during runtime. - The services are hosted via: SoapReceivers.Add(...,...) not ASP.net on IIS - WSE3 is enabled on both the server and client, for use with Kerberos tokens withing an intranet environment with Active Directory. My Intended Solution: - Upon receiving a web method call from a client the call is analysed. The ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System How to rollback bad check-in?

  How I can rollback files checked in a source control The only things I found that I can specific version before the bad check-in but when somebody will get latest version he/she will screwed again. And also I have all kind of problems when trying to modify and check-in those files I loaded from previous changesets - Source Control detects that newer version is available in database and offers me to merge the changes. Which I am obviously do not want as newest check-in is a bad one. How can I remove this bad check-in from the top of the stack I think that TS shelving is an overweight attempt to replace twisted rollback functionality.  Subversion would let me handle 90% of situatios which shelving ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Connecting to Access Database

  I have vb2005 express installed on two different computers and I have copied the same project on both computers into the exact same directories on both computers. I can connect to the database on one computer but not the other one. On the machine that will not let me connect tothe database the connection wizard will not give me the option to browse for the file when i change the connection type to a Access database type. I am beginning to suspect that I have two different versions of vb2005 express, although nothing that i can find indicates a different version. However when I go to the options menu there are quiet a few differences. Does anyone have any information or suggestions about this Reid Wi ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System What does Build and Deploy Mean?

  Can anyone tell me what it means to 1) Build a project Building say a C# app means to rebuild all the source files to create an executable. It's not clear to me what it means to rebuild my database project. 2) Deploy a project I suspect this means more than just synchronizing my database project to some target database. Thanks - Amos. Howard, I would say that if your process works for you - then you are using the product correctly. I've been using DBPro as long as anyone and I'm a firm believer that having a proper process in place is integral to the proper use of DBPro. Its up to you what that process is. -Jamie ...Show All
