• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) WCF Interoperability problem - unable to resolve KeyInfo for verifying signature

  Hi, I'm creating simple WCF (CTP February) service & Java (JWSDP 2.0) client interoperability sample with WS-Security (XWSS 2.0). WCF throws following error: Security header element 'Timestamp' with id 'xxxx' is required to be signed, but was not, although timestam IS signed. Below is the request message sent to WCF service: Does anybody know what's wrong with the request Can I somehow disable the check for signed timestamp Any other ideas to solve the problem Thanx for help.

• Visual Studio Team System Adding Team Foundation Licensed Users to TFS Workgroup Edition -- Help...

  I just spent several hours installing a fresh copy of TFS Workgroup Edition on its own box (as single server deployment). In addition, I already had VS Team Suite on a second box. Both installations have SP1 installed on them and work on their own. However, I cannot seem to add users from my 2nd box to the list of Team Foundation Licensed Users on my 1st box, where, when I click Team | Team Foundation Server Settings | Group Membership | [Server]\Team Foundation Licensed Users Properties Windows User or Group Add... ... the "Locations" button only enables me to see the TFS box itself.

• SQL Server Configuration Order

  I am trying to use the SQL Agent to specify the connection properties of the connection manager that supports all of the other SQL Configurations in my packages. It would appear that configuration files specified in the SQL agent job are applied after the other configurations. I have the same package I want to use under different configurations on the same machine. This package is also portable across to other machines. so cannot have any location information embedded in the package. Does anyone have a solution for this And another open bug for the same issue : https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx FeedbackID=126797 Scott. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Get file attributes - checked out or not (in code)

  Hi, I am wondering if there is any command in the TFS API that lists all files in a folder, and shows whether they are checked out or not. I do know of the QueryPendingSets command, but I would have to combine that with a list of ALL files to get their state - checked in/out. I saw this helpful post about listing checked out files: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=153326&SiteID=1 Is there any API call that allows me to see this in one call P.S. For some reason, the 'Insert Hyperlink' button does not seem to work in FireFox.

• Community Chat so the Zune's a flop

  or so says every review I have read. anyone have any sources saying otherwise installation HORROR stories. questionable collection of "features." incompatibility with WMP and pretty much any non-Zune marketplace source for music. handicapped wifi. I was on the verge of pre-ordering a Zune, but Microsoft has jaded me over the years, so I held off. I think I'm pretty happy with that decision. Zune owner here... Let's see, yes, it's not compatible with WMP even though WMP11 and the Zune software appear to be the same program(or dang close) just re-skinned with different features. WMP won't even acknowledge it as a device. There are those that seem to be having installation issues, but it al ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. XACT on Win2000 ???

  I tried installing the latest DirectX with XACT & discovered that it will not work with W2k. Is there any way to get just XACT on a W2k platform TNX Ken KC7RAD David Weller wrote: No. Windows 2000 is an unsupported operating system for the DirectX SDK and its components (including XACT). This is not really true. The old runtime components, D3DX and Managed DirectX, are still supported on the older operating systems, Windows 9x/ME/2K. It's just the new runtime components, XInput and XACT that require Windows XP or newer. Unfortunately, while the XInput documentation makes this limitation clear, the XACT documentation doesn't. Hmm... actually, that brings up another question. The XInput documentatio ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions USB IrDA Dongle

  I am confused, if I add USB IrDA dongle that uses say the SigmaTel chip, do I write C# code to communicate with a USB device or an IrDA device. In either case can anyone point a Visual C# 2005 Express Edition newbie to some information that would help me to write code to communicate using such a device to an IrDA enabled external device I had started to get the impression that IrDA was only in the Compact Framework, so what you say rings true. I have not got the experience yet to know how to add it to the project, but I guess that will come with time. Thanks for your help. ...Show All
