• .NET Development VS05 Custom Build rule for il file

  Before I break VS05, I thought I'd ask if how to set up a custom build rule for an ilasm file (*.il) to exe Thanks.

• SQL Server Cannot run package in Job Agent with Script task included

  Dear, Since I met the strange thing these days. I cannot make it clear that how can I run the SSIS Package in job agent I hv tried the solutions within this forum, but still couldn't solve my problem. I have set the right credentials with the admin role of SQL account. In my SSIS package, there is a script task which is used to find out the target flat file as connection string by a user defined variable. Aspect 1: If I disable this script task in my SSIS package, then choose "SQL Server Integration Services Package" as the step in Job Agent, run as a proxy, it can run this package without error. But if I enable the script task, then choose "SQL Server Integration Services Package" as the step in Job Agent, run as a proxy. then ...Show All

• .NET Development Interop, pinning and delegates

  A hopefully simple question. Win32 functions like ReadFileEx take a function pointer for later callback. Interop-wise I've defined this as a delegate [DllImport("kernel32.dll", SetLastError=true)] public static extern bool ReadFileEx ( IntPtr hFile, byte[] lpBuffer, uint nNumberOfBytesToRead, Overlapped lpOverlapped, CompletionDelegate lpCompletionRoutine ); Where the completion delegate is defined as: public delegate void CompletionDelegate ( uint dwErrorCode, uint dwNumberOfBytesTransfered, Overlapped lpOverlapped ); This all works fine, but I've a question. Some time can elapse between the ReadFileEx call and completion of the I/O (when the delegate is cal ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) DLINQ and Biz Rules/Data Validation

  Hi there, Are there any plans to include some hooks into a DLINQ objects life cycle to allow for easy valication I was thinking along the Rails ActiveRecord path where the DAO has validation build in that is automatically applied before an objects is saved. So in DLINQ what I really want to do is add some validation code to a known method(s) in my class - say orders as an example and have DLINQ check this during a save, and return false/ throw an exception if it does not pass validation. Anyone been able to achieve this with DLINQ, or does anyone at MS know if there are any plans to include it Thanks. Hi, We don't have anything similar to what you're describing here. If you generated your objects with the designer we do have Pro ...Show All

• Visual C++ Cursor above ComboBox - is it possible to change?...

  Hi there everyone! I have few years of not particularly primary experience with MFC (I am using VS 6.0 ), and I have a problem I really can't solve now. I've made a quite sophisticated combobox with individual functionality, owner drawing and everything, and a minor bug was reported to me, saying: when the combo box is read-only (I solved it with subclassing the editbox within and than calling SetReadOnly and HideCaret), the cursor - when going over the editbox within the combo - changes to a text-cursor ( | ). Now I know it wouldn't do that if the combo would be drop-list instead of drop-down, but earlier (another issue, doesn't matter now) I had the experience that you just can't properly implement onwer-drawing to a drop-list com ...Show All
