• Visual Studio Prevent control from showing in toolbox?

  I have a C# control library (Windows.Forms controls) containing several controls. Some of these controls are base classes I don't want the user to have direct access to. I would like to prevent these base class items from showing up in the toolbox when the library is added to the toolbox via 'Choose Items...'. The question, then is how does one prevent a control from appearing in the control list when the library is added to the toolbox (I have no problem supplying custom bitmaps for the items I DO want displayed.) Add the <ToolBoxItemAttribute(False)> attribute to the base class. See: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/tx1k7z59.aspx ...Show All

• Visual C++ enum declaration - newbie can't do it! :)

  i'm using VS C++ 2005 native, and I can't seem to get an enum declared. I can do it in a CLI app, but not native C++. There was a larger example in my book, but I can't get a simple app that ONLY declares the enum to compile. Here's the error. Following is my code. I know the enum declaration is in the main() function; I've also tried declaring just before the main() function. Thanks in advance for any suggestions/help!

• Software Development for Windows Vista How to call a sequential workflow Synchronously from a hosting windows application while workflow could operate on forms.

  When we host a sequential workflow on a windows application, the workflow may have to change the state of hosting form. If we want workflow to return back to application before going forward we generally use AutoResetEvent.WaiOne and Set methods to control the flow. Now if there is a scenario where the workflow need to operate on the hosting form, say to populate a listview, then we use a CallExternalMethod activity. But to populate the listview we need to Set the AutoResetEvent which will make the main appliaction thread run. Now I want that the application thread runs to populate the listview and returns to workflow and hang. To solve this issue I will put a SuspendActivity after each CallExternalMethod activity and will use BeginInvoke ...Show All

• Windows Forms Problem with List<T> and TypeConverter

  Hi, I am having a bit of difficulty with TypeConverters and Generic Lists and I was hoping that I could get a bit of advice. I have a type converter that is used to create the constructor code for my component. (It is an XNA a Game Component, but I don't think that that has anything to do with the problem because it appears on a Winform) inside another component. For instance I have the following: public class A{ private string s; public string SProp { get { s = value;} set { return s;} } public A() { s = "" ; } public A( string inS) { s = inS; } } By itself, when class A is an object on a form (or in my XNA Component) the TypeConverter code works fine, the property grid on t ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Keyboard State and color manipulation of textures

  Hello, I have a couple of questions and I'll do my best not to babble on. First, a little description of what I'm doing: I'm currently working on a little XNA application that effectively draws a game board in 2D (all textures) and then places new pieces on the board when I press the 'N' key and if I click on a piece, then I can move it. If I click on it once more, it will be 'let go.' Here's the questions: 1) When I press 'N' quickly, I get 6 new pieces (since it cycles through update 6 times before I let go... what can I say too slow on the draw ;) ). To fix this, I created a variable called nPress. Here's the code: bool nPress = false ; KeyboardState keyboardState = Keyboard .GetState(); if (keyboardState.I ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Retrieving Dialog Box Information Collectively Using Objects

  Could some of the expert(s) list interview questions that might come up when applying for ETL/SSIS developer I or II positions. Thanks Chris Honcoop wrote: In re: to your original question... Do you know SSIS well yourself I've seen some questions on web pages for SSIS (maybe even some posted by Jamie) that focused on some specifics that maybe you can ask in a phone screen but they will not really get to the heart if the person applying is a good SSIS developer. If you know SSIS yourself I would make up some situations and ask the person applying for the job to give an outline etc of how they would design a package to overcome the problem.

• Visual Studio Team System This should actually be easy - remove the Project param

  Hello All, Is there a product out there to show how all projects are progressings Something like the sharepoint portal for an individual project but would be for a CIO level to see the progress on all projects. Thanks, John Hi John, We do not deliver such a thing out of the box but you could create a dashboard with various reports using the reporting web part and setting it up to point to the reports you want to display. It would basically ressemble the project portal page but instead of having one report, you could resize the control and include more reports in the page. Thanks, Othmane ...Show All

Because Microsoft requires several MCPs to satisfy their non-ISV competancies, I need to take the ISV route to get Certified Partner status.
